Title: Remove / Disable Cockpit Windscreen Reflection?

It is a cool effect, but a little distracting. Anyone know how to make it go away? :o

Hi David

Download this file from my Dropbox:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/biu4gn2374edde0/cs777_C_19_T_mod.dds?dl=0

1.Place the file in the FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes\CS_B777-200ER_GE\texture.folder
2. Backup/rename the cs777_C_19_T.dds file.
3. Rename the cs777_C_19_T_mod.dds to cs777_C_19_T.dds.

Note.If the Hide extension for known files is checkmarked, then you won't see the .dss extension. Just rename the files without the extensions. ;)

That's it. All done.

It looks like this:

Could you do a similar version for the Freighter version? I want to see how it affects framerates.

Changing the cs777_C_19_T.DDS texture to the modified one in the zip file, should work on all the 777 aircraft, including the freighter, because all liveries look to the FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes\CS_B777-200ER_GE\texture folder for textures that are common to all models. That includes the windscreen textures. ;)
