I checked this out. Can see no difference? The positions are correct anyway in aircraft I upload.
What am I missing? Would be great to see someone modifying the VC with mdlconverterx

If you see the image, the cockpit colored red is the old one and the green is the position adjustment I made. If you uploaded the file and it is without the adjustments that I made, then the ones that you've released to the community is wrong. This mistake is visible when you are doing an rnav approach and when you need to use the papi lights, the old model will display the wrong angle of approach for the aircraft. If you don't believe me, you can change the eyepoint back to the original one which is : eyepoint = 48, -1.55, 1.83 and see for yourself the distance from wrong and correct positions.

This is one question I can't answer. I don't have FSX so only test in P3D

Here are 2 photos -


1st is original version with views set as shown (example is korean Max8)

When I add your views edit

I have a feeling this came up before and it may be that FSX and P3D display the VC at different viewpoints in this model.

Did you replace the .mdl file that I provided along with the eyeview?
Also you're joking right? Look how close your cockpit is to the ground. that is specifically why that mdl file position is wrong.
