F-18 problem/Fix?

Postby topgunpilots » Mon Aug 12, 2013 8:00 am

I have an CF-18 from here( http://simviation.com/1/search?submit=1 ... &filename=) with the fictional tiger textures on it but for some reason like the acceleration default I cannot see the wings from inside the vc.It would be cool if you could see the wings from inside the vc when you look side to side as it would add to the realism.Can anyone fix that!!!? :)

That a fs9 plane, so a rework on the stuck f-18 texture would do ;)

Hi,
I haven't downloaded anything but don't understand what you mean when you say you can't see the wings "like in the default acceleration" vc. The wings are clearly visible from the vc by using the hatswitch to direct the view in their direction. Please explain.

In this f-18 posted above when you are flying inside the VC and you rotate (meaning spacebar and mouse to look around the cockpit) from left to right you should be able to see the wings of the aircraft from inside the VC. When you rotate on either side you cannot see it.In Fsx acceleration when your flying the default f-18 and look out the glass on any side you see your wings.With this one it is not possible.My question is can anyone possibly edit and correct the problem as I would love this aircraft to be a bit more realistic.

Hi,
I see my confusion now. It would have been clearer if you had said "unlike" rather than "like" . So if I'm now with you the problem really lies with the "Daisuke Yamamoto's F/A F-18E; not simply the tiger textures. I'm happy with the default aircraft so I can't be of much help to you other than suggesting that it might be an eyepoint problem. It could be set too far back. It's fairly common for the eyepoint to be set unrealistically rearwards to see more of the panel.
