REDEYE_CVW-66 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Sorry if I am beating an old horse here. With the 'double canopy bug' being around for ages with no end in sight, I am looking for interim solutions. I saw someone mentioned the 'clean canopy mod'- https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/2315459/ However, this does not seem to work for me (I don't see any changes- possibly due to file renaming/restructuring in later versions). Have anyone made a mod where the glass i 100% transparent? I know it is not optimal, but the way I see it, it is the best option in the current situation. Any ideas?

petsild Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 There are three different things that affect each other. - The mirror effect of the cabin in the glass, which remains visible even when opened - Glare light effect - Scratches It can be reduced or eliminated, but then it would look odd.

Stonehouse Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Not sure about the double canopy bug and I don't fly the Spit at present so I'm not sure of the status of my clean canopy mod. Possibly it needs to be added to the zip file under DCS World\Mods\aircraft\SpitfireLFMkIX\Cockpit\Textures rather than simply sit in a folder under saved games in order to work. Or perhaps it needs to be setup as a custom cockpit livery. I know there were changes made to DCSW in the recent past that meant the trick where folders named the same as a zip file overriding the zip file contents stopped working. That's why Mustang's terrain mod went from a small download to a bit over a gig after the relevant patch last year. If I get time in the next week or so I will try to check but people here may already be able to answer you sooner as how best to install the textures. From memory my textures were 99% clear in game.

Stonehouse Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 I can confirm that the mod no longer appears to work as the file SpitfireIX_CPT_GLASS_SPEC.dds appears to no longer be used or at the very least is no longer referred to by that name. To avoid any future confusion I have removed the mod from user files Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
