    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Lighten the glass?

Hi everyone.

I'm flying Dave Garwood's excellent Hawker Hunter - but I have a small problem. The glass is a little too dark for my liking. It's making things quite hard to see at times! I end up opening the cockpit just to get some light in!

Does anyone know how I can modify a file somewhere to make the class clear instead of tinted?

Thanks in advance, apologies if this has been covered but I did search.
 
I do not have the aircraft but I suspect it is the texture for glass.

The primary might be too dark and could be lightened, and/or the alpha is too light and could be darkened for more transparency.

I'm sorry, I'm getting myself all confused. It's Dave Garwood's, not Piglets. I made the mistake because I was downloading some of Piglet's stuff earlier, which is equally as excellent.

But yes, if you don't have Dave's Hunter, I recommend it.
 
I've had it since release, I have a idea there was a glass fix for it to lighten the glass. Is your problem in VC ?

Yes it is. You can see through the glass perfectly fine, it's not a transparency issue. The glass is just quite heavily tinted and it makes everything a bit dull (as well as quite difficult to make out things on anything except bright days.
 
Single ot twin seaters? (or both!)

If it's the twins, a clearer glass texture can be downloaded here

If it's the singles, I'll have to edit the tex and upload it.
