Thanks for the fixed radar icons. Made my life a bit easier (although seeing oversized Erinyes icons hurt).

Although for the virtual cockpit mods... for some reason, I can't pick any other ships in retail FS2's ship selection screen, and I didn't get any UEF cockpits. What's the arrangement one of you guys placed in any of the mod.ini files that made it work?

Right now, I kinda stooped down to:

cockpit mod ini: primary list is blueplanet2, secondary list is blueplanet, and mediavps_3612.

[MLCBotMan]

never did an ini file rather specify "-mod cockpitmod" (w/o quotes) in your custom flags in your launcher and use your blueplanet 2 mod in mod selection

I know I'm not on the team, but how about a 48:9 (Eyefinity/Surround) HUD?        http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?whuh1k6hpiou1bd


It's adapted from the WiH HUD, I was just working on it in the MVPs folder, so FS2 screenshot. It's for anywhere between (3x)1280x720 to (3x)1920x1080.

EDIT: Actual BP screenshot:

Here a gift for you !

New Steve-O revamp cockpits !!
Note: I modify the Kentauroi table since weapons banks have change between the old models and the revamp models. So instead of using only 2 primaries banks, it have 3 primaries banks.
Just unzip the vp file into your blue planet 2 repository.

Surely you could have edited the POF data to accomodate two banks on the Kentauroi?

[Buckshee Rounds]

The cockpits are f*cking awesome! Thanks Metal!

Yeah, I could. I don't know why I didn't.

Awesome work with the cocpits, but there is a little problem - dialogue text is often unreadable with them in background. Is there a way to move it back to the top left corner like in vanilla FS?

You could extract the hud gauges .tbl file from the BP VPs, put it in blueplanet[2]/data/tables and change the co-ordinates for the Messages box:

Is there any plans to fix the cockpit glass in fs2 scp ? I read somewhere it was disabled because of broken reflexions.

I love MetalDestroyer's cockpit mod. It's beautiful and I don't want to play BP2 without it. However, this mod doesn't seem to work with recent 3.7.2 build. (Is there an updated version of this mod?)

I managed to fix this problem. All you have to do is to remove every line starting with “$Glowpoint overrides” from bp2-shp.tbm.

Now it works fine with 3.7.2 RC3 and MediaVPs 2014.

[Pacman110]

Is it maybe possible that you could upload those files you have modified, Nikogori?
It would be much appreciated.

[Nikogori]

I don't think I can upload files without author's permission. But I can tell you what to do. It's very simple.

1. Extract bp2-shp.tbm from adv-bp2-cockpits.vp(I'm using Maja Express).
2. Edit bp2-shp.tbm with text editor. Remove or rename every line starting with “$Glowpoint overrides”.
3. Create new vp file.

As I have no modding experience I'm not sure about this. At least it seems to be working.

[Pacman110]

It works; awesome! Thank you very much, good Sir!
(Tested with 3.7.2 RC4)

On another note and since the cockpits do work once more: Is there a way to get pilot breath (e.g. Diaspora) for blueplanet? Combined with the cockpit it would make for a very immersive experience.

Edit: Actually the modified cockpits turned out to be quite troublesome: I am experiencing frequent crashes and some missions are completely unplayable. The screen will go black (except for the HUD), sounds and music start to stutter etc. Without the cockpits everything runs fine.
That's a downer

How to make the cockpit mod compatible with the new release?

Yes, this please. I haven't had any luck with this either.

[procdrone]

Please make it compatible, BP team

[AdmiralRalwood]

Please make it compatible, BP team

The BP team isn't responsible for updating somebody else's mod.

That being said, the only thing needed to be done to make it compatible should just be for somebody to make a replacement table file. You might find that it's easier to do it yourself than you think it is.

[General Battuta]

Yeah, if we supported a cockpit mod it would be part of the BP download. We don't have the resources to do that right now.

I'm pretty mod-savvy from back in the day doing Source-related stuff, can you at least point me at where to start?
