F-15C in 2.0 LOOKS..... "different"

 

i'd say better

 

almost a brown tint to it

 

and its easier to see the HUD symbology against the (normally wayyyy too bright) horizon

It's the new reflector shade on the hud. I like it.

Reflections a Bit Much?

 

The new F-15C cockpit effects look pretty cool in some lighting situations. However, some of this seems a bit much to me. To my knowledge, the F-15C combiner glass on the HUD is not tinted in real life, nor is the canopy. The reflections seem a bit much now.

This new "look" has created a major set back for WVR combat in the F-15C. Note my 3rd screenshot above, visibility out the window of the bandit becomes extremely poor in the dusk/dawn hours. This needs to be fixed.

Made a quick and dirty hack to it, for latest Open Alpha branch.

More transparent canopy, to reduce the amount of shadow you see on it.

Reduced the specular on the canopy, so you can see better, when the sun is in that unlucky position.

 

Navigate to your Open Alpha install's \Mods\aircraft\Flaming Cliffs\Cockpit\Textures

Backup the F-15C-CPT-TEXTURES.zip file

Then just simply drag and drop the two .DDS files in the attached .rar, on to the F-15C-CPT-TEXTURES.zip file, in your Open Alpha install. And voila.

 

At your own risk, I offer no guarantee's.

Works here though.

not gonna do it - i prefer the darker tint

 

the horizon get so damn bright you can't read the HUD!

 

i'm glad they FINALLY did something about it - HUD is actually readable now...

Since when has the F-15C H.U.D. ever been unreadable? Did you ever try the HUD color change option? It's there for visibility reasons, though I've never found it necessary.
