F-16 cockpit blackout

Postby Vindicator » Tue Mar 17, 2009 8:47 am

Hey everyone , maybe someone can help me with a problem iv been having.  When using the VC view of the F-16 the inside of the cockpit is screwed up.  The glass is not transparent.  Its just this ugly shade of brown that you cannot see out of.   But you can see out the HUD.  Its just a little square window to the outside world.   Again, everything looks fine on the outside.  This is only a problem with the in cockpit view.  

Any ideas?

Check this out. http://www.simviation.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1227211033

I believe the glass texture for the F-16 is named inglass.bmp
