That would be a modular ship table with the name ****-shp.tbm, not a tbl file.

It's relatively easy to do. It's probably best if you make a new mod directory for testing this kind of stuff, eg. ..\FreeSpace2\cockpits_visible\data\tables\

Then create an empty text file into that directory and name it for example cockpits_visible-shp.tbm (take care that you don't make it ****-shp.tbm.txt), and paste the following into the file:

Thank you, - its amazing that the level of detail in the cock-pitted fighters is built into the model itself...I understand the newer versions of FSopen have support for separate cockpit models entirely - It'd be a blessing to see some dedicated 'pit models in action someday.

Hi to all
What i'am doing wrong ?

[Herra Tohtori]

You did nothing wrong, in fact you spotted a bug. The Herc 2 viewpoint is way off from it's correct position.

[GTSVA]

Can you explain that picture?

[chief1983]

He turned on the show ship model in the ship's table, to see the cockpit built into the model.  But the eyepoint in the model is too far back so his vantage point is wrong, and he's actually seeing from behind the pilot.

[GTSVA]

Very confusing....

[Androgeos Exeunt]

The moment I saw that, I said, "Whoa, what the heck is that?"

Does this require a Mantis?

[Wanderer]

The issue has been fixed - as far as can be fixed - by moving the eye point of that ship and of couple of other ships to slightly better positions.

[ShadowGorrath]

Yea, it's very easy to fix it yourself even.

But was the Herc 1 shield hole issue fixed? THAT's something you can't fix easily by yourself.

[Androgeos Exeunt]

What shield hole?

[Commander Zane]

Yeah, I'm wondering about this myself.

[ShadowGorrath]

At the Herc 1's sides. Your shots can bypass the shields. Mostly seen in ToF when you have to test their shields, but you can see that as well when flying a Herc 1, as some shots bypass the shields... Makes the Herc 1's shielding semi-useless. Has it been fixed? Cause it feels like it's not.

Whoa whoa whoa. Wait one minute here.

The Horus has animation code so that when it engages afterburner, some airbrakes turn on. I know there's no air in space, but WTH?

[Commander Zane]

Hmm...considering that I've noticed just about every shot I take goes through my shields anyway on any ship I wouldn't know.

Whoa whoa whoa. Wait one minute here.

IT DOES THAT INGAME?

I haz not noticed that!

[Vasudan Admiral]

Afterburner blast shield or something.

The little stumpy wing things just looked like they should _do_ something, so I made them do that.

[Snail]

When the Seth is completed will it have that feature too?

[Vasudan Admiral]

I have no idea - that'd be up to whoever actually makes it.

[blowfish]

I thought of something for a possible future feature of the SCP: Vasudan cockpits.

Well, if someone is willing to model a decent Vasudan cockpit

[Droid803]

Wasn't there one for the GTF Ulysses?
But the Ulysses cockpit is different anyway...so...
