[REQUEST] F-5E HD Cokcpit Texture

Can anyone create an F-5 HD cockpit without mipmaps/ with mipmaps.

All I want is to have a clear, readable, HD cockpit texture, no matter what my texture settings are.

I tried looking in the lua files before if there was a work around for always having cockpit textures on high, even asked for assistance, but with no success

So now I have to use custom textures to have that.

Here are some F-5E pit textures that I use which have mipmaps applied

EDIT: cockpit mirrors weren't working properly, updated link below

Thank you mustang

I had a thread in the wishlist, I really think it should be a different setting in the options to select the quality of cockpit textures

I know this is old nut just realized I didn't have these. Thanks for the fix

Hi Mustang,

Can you clarify where I would copy these files? I can't figure out the folder structure.

Hi Mustang,

 

Can you clarify where I would copy these files? I can't figure out the folder structure.

It's simple, you just extract the MIPMAPPED folder from the package to your DCS directory Mods\aircraft\F-5E\Liveries\Cockpit_F-5E and then select the customized cockpit from the SPECIAL page within the DCS options like so

I tried this with the latest version of DCS. I don't see it as selectable under "special".

this was my mistake fixed

Opps my fault

I had same problem then found my mistake you may have done same thing I put it in mods/aircraft/F-5-E cockpit not F-5E/liveries/cokpit

I also tried this and it does not show under special

I've got it where it's supposed to be:

G:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\F-5E\Liveries\Cockpit_F-5E

it didn't show up under special in the settings, I'll try again.

You have to do it in your Saved Games folder in a folder called Liveries.

C, Users, *Your user*, Saved Games, DCS, create a "Liveries" folder there, Create a "Cockpit_F-5E" folder and drop it there.

This way you will have no IC issues and you won't need to put the files back there after every DCS update

IMHO all DCS modules should come with a few different cockpit liveries.

1) A clean high detail texture like aircraft would come from the factory (or been in service for few months)

2) A weathered high detail texture like aircraft would have been in service since the early days (possibly even decades in service)

3) A VR/low specs compatible where textures are minimized for clarity, yet looking fairly authentic.

So people can have a "Cockpit textures Low" and yet be nicely reading the instruments.

Ok, I figured it out, It works, just not in VR. If I launch without VR I can select it. When I launch in VR it doesn't show up in the menu.

I only use VR and it works for me

Bought the F-5E yesterday, didn't have a chance to fly it until this morning...just gave this mod a try. Worked perfectly for me in VR. Thanks, as always, Chris!

are you both using Oculus? I have the vive, maybe that's the difference?

as my pop use to say anything is possible in the realms of reality (virtual that is) :)
