A-20C iron sight post and some other tweaks
« on: February 24, 2024, 03:35:52 AM »



Get it here:

https://www.mediafire.com/file/89tjjmnd8700zmy/%25210_A-20C_cockpit_tweaks.7z/file

NOTE: This applies to other planes using the same cockpit, such as the Boston Mk.III (and Mk.III Strafer).

From the included readme file:

A few A-20C cockpit tweaks, by WxTech


This is just a quick tackling of a few of the main issues.

- Added a new front post for the iron sight.
- Increased the range of virtual head motion via addition of 6dof limits code to the cockpit class.
- Filled in the missing polygons on the underside of the panel hood.
- Separated the gyro and magnetic compass behaviour; the latter has sluggish response and bank/pitch limits to free rotation.
- Tidied up the compass card texture.
- Touched up the instrument panel texture.

There is a LOT more that could be done! But I'm spread a bit on the thin side with other projects clamoring for attention. ;)

Note that the entire contents of the cockpit folder are included. I even moved over textures which formerly resided in the A-20G cockpit folder, editing their .mat files accordingly, thus making all resources completely independent of any other folder.

Hi Glen nicely done, I suppose that these improvements can only work in 4.12 due to the 6DOF limits and compasses codes?

The 6dof limits code is certainly not 4.09 compatible. From 4.12 on it's good. I can't recall with any certainty if the AnglesFork method is supported pre-4.12, but I do have a small suspicion it *might* be with 4.09...

Both true 6DOF not compatible, AngleFork compatible that would make it easy to adapt to 409/410
