• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Cockpit reflections?

You can locate the graphic file from which the reflection is made and alter it to solid black. The file should be located in the plane's texture folder. You'll need a program that can open the extended bmp or dds files and a graphics program.
 
Exactely.
However, instead of solid black, I would recommend a very dark grey, which will make the glass not completely transparent.
Those reflections are a bit too strong, but they look nice. If you remove them completely (by setting the glass to total transparency with a solid black alpha channel), you will get a cockpit with no glass at all, which doesn't look so realistic at all.
By setting the alpha channel to a dark grey, the reflections will still be there, but they won't harm your vision as much as before, and the glass will still look consistent.
