SDsc0rch Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 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 i7-4790K | Asus Sabertooth Z97 MkI | 16Gb DDR3 | EVGA GTX 980 | TM Warthog | MFG Crosswind | Panasonic TC-58AX800U [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilbur81 Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 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.

wilbur81 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 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. i7 8700K @ Stock - Win10 64 - 32 RAM - RTX 3080 12gb OC - 55 inch 4k Display Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knock-Knock Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 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.OpenAlpha F-15C canopy.rar - Jack of many DCS modules, master of none. - Personal wishlist: F-15A, F-4S Phantom II, JAS 39A Gripen, SAAB 35 Draken, F-104 Starfighter, Panavia Tornado IDS. | Windows 11 | i5-12400 | 64Gb DDR4 | RTX 3080 | 2x M.2 | 27" 1440p | Rift CV1 | Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS | MFG Crosswind pedals | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. i7 8700K @ Stock - Win10 64 - 32 RAM - RTX 3080 12gb OC - 55 inch 4k Display Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
