Request for Magnitude 3 LLC on the animation of the cockpit mig-21

Those are not switches, but circuit breakers. You do not really touch them when operating the aircraft anyway. I cannot think of any aircraft currently, which has CBs animated.

Well all the same, there are 23 of them, CB are in sight, should switch, at least fake!

The CBs are usually covered and not easily accessible sitting in the cockpit. For this reason ground crew in general flip these CBs during pre-flight.

 

5 years ago, it was decided to leave them as is.

Are the Mi-8 CBs used to actually turn stuff on and off? Because there are a lot of aircrafts, like the Yak-52 or Yak-18T where the circuit breakers are also used as the system switches. In those cases it does make sense to animate them and program the functionality. In the case of the MiG-21 those are not used in operation and there is a switch for the very same circuit anyway. So I do understand the decision to not make them usable, as it would really be a huge effort for nearly 0 gain. The module which is currently considered the most advanced does not have the CBs animated by the way.

Glear glass would actually be the right thing to do and I am wondering, why it is missing. Judging from pictures on the web, you cannot even open the cover without tools.

 

And I am talking about the F-14.

I think clear glass will kill realism aspecialy in VR. Now glass works very cool and realistic on my point of view. Need to go museum again to chek, but my memory paints glass as same as it is now.

 

Did you actually read the topic? The glass we are talking about is not even in the cockpit.
