    You can modify the textures the same way you would paint a 'craft (check the paint section in the forums or google it up) but payware aircrafts usually come with bumps and highquality cockpits. There are a bunch of things but only if you turn your settings down for the cockpit quality and maybe fool around trying to delete some of the bump map texture files. I'm no expert in this but I have plenty of payware aircraft that hit FPS. On the "Aerosoft Bush Hawk XP @ Alpnach" I would try to modify it. The rest, suck up the 20 fps and save some time ;)

there seems to be no repaints available for this aircraft yet. But I am also fond of the paints which come with the aircraft just so long as they give me better FPS, But they dont.
I am also no expert on this but I want to learn, and I am willing to do almost any method possible to get these textures to give me better fps.

I'm interested in this too. The Mitsubishi F2A's cockpit textures are so high quality that they drop my fps down to 7. Outside the aircraft I get 20.

I have been messing around with this textures and I have had no luck, only luck in making the aircraft transparent in some places, (not even sure how I did that) anyone came up with any bright ideas?  Anyone know of any popular fsx modding forums?
