Re: Internal Cockpit Models
IMO, I think that the non-cockpitted models looked cool because they reflected the background which looked cool.

They're not stupid when you disable jpg tga texturing...
"Hey! they're transparant now!"

As for the cockpit models... I only need to upload them.

i thought they still did reflect, except when theres nothing to reflect you see straight through

Re: Internal Cockpit Models
Um, disabling the -jpgtga flag is a rather unwise move, since it's required to properly display a number of textures used by the game.  In fact, at some point in the future (whether 3.6.10 or 3.7, I'm uncertain), the flag won't be available in the launcher and will be enabled by default.  If there's a problem with some of the cockpit textures, ask someone who's knowledgeable about how they're rendered to take a look at them and see if they can be corrected.

Really stupid question:
How do you enable cockpit viewing?

It is in the latest head build (thats how I discovered it) but DDS textures now go first. The good model seems to be a DDS one.
