Bummer Posted December 14, 2018 Posted December 14, 2018 (edited) I made new textures for the DCS F/A-18C Hornet for a higher immersion feeling. These files can be downloaded from the ED user files section, and after unpacking, the DDS and LUA files can be copied into : ../users/[pc name]/saved games/DCS.openbeta/Liveries/Cockpit_F-18C/FA-18C HORNET pit Then in DCS, go to options (settings), select the SPECIAL tab, select F/A-18C and in customized Cockpit select FA-18C HORNET pit.

Ramrod_45 Posted December 14, 2018 Posted December 14, 2018 Many thanks, I like it. Panels don't look as washed out now. But you are correct it will depend on individual gamma settings.

Bummer Posted January 10, 2019 Author Posted January 10, 2019 Updated the F/A-18C HORNET pit to V1.1 Made left and right DDI a bit darker and cleaner Made throttle brushes look softer Removed top of the two lines in HUD (don't think it should be there) Some more dirtying up the place Tried something where the canopy glass meets the front canopy bow.

JagHond Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 It has past almost one moth since the date I've installed it. I' am appreciating your hard work even more day after day, no issues to report on my little own. Thanks a lot for sharing it, Bummer, you did it great. With best regards,
Jerec Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 Would like to have the Hornet pit less weathered and more clean like the Harrier pit.
Bummer Posted May 6, 2019 Author Posted May 6, 2019 Updated the F/A-18C HORNET pit to V1.3 V 1.3 Some work on the lock/shoot lights box. Changed the pitch ladder on the spheroid of the SARI. ( more like in the F-5E ) Disp button little more worn. Removed some of the bluish colour on the grey painted parts. Made the reddish part of the IFEI a bit lighter ( not much ) No new screenshots made.

When it´s possible, of course, can you update the right console? on FLIR section, LTD/R button is 3-position but it´s wrong labeled. ARM/SAFE instead ARM/SAFE/AFT. It´s a minor thing but just pointing out after last update. Take care and thank you once again for this beautiful cockpit.

Bummer Posted August 4, 2019 Author Posted August 4, 2019 Hello fagulha. The arm/safe/aft was there from the start in the ED version, but I changed it, because in all the pictures I could find of it there was no aft position. But it is not a big deal, so I will restore it back to the arm/safe/aft positions in the next update.
