Title: WiH Cockpit Environment map issue
Post by: Insomniac34 on January 21, 2012, 01:02:43 pm
OK, so I decided to just make a topic b/c I have tried everything I can think of and maybe it'll help others. In the latest version of BP/WiH, what steps should I go through to get cockpits working? Since updating to the new FSO, AoA, and WiH versions, they don't work, so I want to ensure I do everything right from the beginning. Cockpits are awesome and really added to my enjoyment of both BP mods. Thanks!

EDIT: It seems that what's really missing is environment maps reflecting off of the glass in the cockpit. I know some people were complaining about this, was it possibly disabled? And if so, how to I re-enable environment map reflections off of the glass?

Did you check if you have enabled environment map in the launcher ?

This was a bug, more people complained about it than were happy with it.
And, if you know a thing or two about how reflections work, it was also unrealistic.

It was unrealistic, but I always managed to ignore it and enjoy the reflections. Is there any way to re-enable reflections on the player's ship? I miss them.

How could you see anything through such glass?
Anyway, I don't think anybody will be unfixing that bug. This was unintentional and got fixed recently.
