Haha, I think she is. Gonna have to give her a go just so she doesnt feel left out. Now, If someone made a Tomcat with this level of quality and detail... I'd be in heaven. And Im pretty sure T-Horse would be as well! ;)

Were you able to make the VC canopy glass transparent? I haven't been able to yet

Posted: Wed Oct 29, 2008 1:31 pmIt took a little while, but I FINALLY figured it out. Don't edit any of the texture files in the aircraft folder itself. For some reason, they way the aircraft is set up, textures need to be installed in the FSX/Textures directory. In this folder, the texture files that need to be edited are:
f86jv_glas_vcanopy.bmp
f86jv_glas_vcleft.bmp
f86jv_glas_vcmid.bmp
Darken the alpha channel for these files, and the canopy is transparent from inside the Virtual Cockpit... 8-)

Yes, but are there any better f-14's out there?
I don't think I've even seen one that wasn't a modified version of his, and since Gtirob is using it in FSX, he can just put the paints on his current one. He mentioned photo real, which this one has some of. Not perfect, but close.

Posted: Fri Oct 31, 2008 3:08 pmIts my next request from that bloke in the aircraft wanted section, who does everything and anything you want in a matter of hours. When his dad helps, its only an hour or so. Im expecting great things. Maybe.

Posted: Fri Oct 31, 2008 4:16 pmSorry about that, but I did say 'some', not all! the main body still looks painted up close. 
I kinda left it up to you to decide that one. 
But I thought it was neat to have the set, now I would like to find Vipers plane.
