Alabeo Staggerwing vc repaint without the yoke shadows

I don't currently have the Alabeo Staggerwing, although I played with the file Ron has a bit.
I'll upload sometime soon.

Pay no attention to the backwards lettering as it does not affect the file I created. :a1310:

Here is what it looks like on my rig Oldboy, Is this the desired effect? Is the shadow on the top of the dash (Just below the compass) suppose to look like that.
The bottom part of the panel is lighter and less of contrast from the instruments.

one below is from beaufighter and noted in yellow is splotchy texture in panel areas.

the chameleon effect

Okay, I think I know what's going on here. When I am flying along in this bird and I change directions, I notice that sunlight will reflect off the panel or to say it another way
with the sun at my back, the panel is brighter, due to the sun illuminating the panel and if I fly towards the sun then the light on the panel will appear darker, much darker,
kinda like the chameleon effect. Now the yoke shadow effect that appears near the top of the dash, I don't know what to say bout that.
 
Pictures tell me whole bunches considering I don't have the model. No rivet picking. Remember "I" don't have the model to DO a better job.:a1310:

It's good you posted that image so I can physically see what's going on. Your image also lets me save, and bring it in Photoshop to use as reference. Otherwise it's a guessing game aside from common sense and hunting for panel photos elsewhere to go from.

I had a gut feeling I was opening a can of worms editing as I did. :dizzy: You are, and will be my eyes!
You are fortunate today is the start of the holiday!

Round three!! http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?action=jump&catid=117&id=19181

Rami will likely skin me for causing him so much grief by uploading so many, so soon. LOL! GULP

Okay here is what your latest looks like. I circled some areas that need paint.

I can appreciate your wanting to pick at it so it is perfect, although, the whole panel amongst other bits on the file looks mottled and blemished. I meant to keep it that way instead of a one tone application. Which can quickly lead to doing everything close to the panel. My not having the model, yet, limits me from going any further with it.

For now, enjoy. Maybe this model will hit the sale rack. I might pick it up.
In the meantime, can I fly yours? :mixed-smiley-010:

Nice "DELETE" feature that resides in the SOH archives. I took care of the bad files, Rami :)
 
Heard from Aabeo support

Just received a response from Alabeo support and was told that the splotches that I see on the panel when the panel is fully illuminated from back lighting is caused from FSXA and nothing can be
done about it. I wounder if the P3d folks experience the same issue

I don't consider myself part of the P3D community just yet, but I do NOT have that problem in the new sim!
