Fulgrim Posted May 28, 2024 Posted May 28, 2024 On the matter of the impossibly dirty and totally unreadable cockpits, I recalled that JDAF ground crews make a point of having their planes' cockpits spotless clean and in perfect condition. I searched for images of JDAF planes and, even though these planes are battered, you could eat steak tartar off these cockpits. Just search for "Mitsubishi F-2 cockpit" images and check it out. So, in order to respect the clearly different maintenance doctrines, and also to help VR users that cannot make sense of the current cockpits, could we at least have the JDAF textures without that layer of dust, grime, and grease? Thanks. 1
MichaelJWP15 Posted May 28, 2024 Posted May 28, 2024 I've been in the F-4E with my Pimax Crystal, it was OK once I turned the gamma up to 2, but I agree it would be nice to have the option of a clean cockpit as well. I also find in my setup that the pilot's (hairy) arms are weirdly shaded, it's almost like they are self-illuminated (glowing). Not sure what's causing that as all other surfaces/textures seem super-real. Find it distracting so I turn him off! 1 - Michael Intel Core i7 13700K | RTX 4070 | ASUS TUF Z690 | Pimax Crystal | Virpil/Warthog HOTAS
JetCat Posted May 30, 2024 Posted May 30, 2024 (edited) The Japanese truly take care of their stuff. For example train drivers even use gloves, especially in the Shinkansen. That´s the spirit! Taking good care of the machine and respecting the machine equals taking good care of body and soul and respecting oneself. edit: I have watched a few Phantom videos, and this cockpit (I don´t know if this is a mod, or the default cockpit, or if there is a clean and used cockpit option available) is very clean and well-preserved for an over 60 years old cockpit: Edited May 30, 2024 by JetCat
