Can't wait for your -200 version.  Of course, you're a volunteer, so work at your own pace and everyone will be patient, really.

@Necroscope
Firts of all, your modifications are really great. But I've got the same problems as Cthulhus.

Your 752-fix for the "lights" section unfortunately doesn't work for me.

Thanks for your work,
Patric

This is not a problem with the Necroscop fix or texture.

the problem is that the FSX Overhead gauges are designed from a FS9 version and they are not "really" for FSX, ok they work but a FS9 gauge in FSX will don't have any illumination.

The solution : Transform them in a FSX standard.

Seems so. But in 753 - all OK. Even the both models are using same textures and gauges. I think the reason is "materials" settings in VC for 752.
Any way - It can be fixed with additional "Panel" lightsource under overhead. I've played a bit with FX tools from SDK and yes, if the lightsource is lit-up - textures and gauges become visible.

Try to keep original lights.4 in aircraft.cfg probably it helps.
Here the good doc how it works: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc526969.aspx

Unfortunatelly now I have no enough time to figure all this things out.
But if you have questions - feel free to ask.

You're right... I took the "cs757_300_interior.MDL" instead off the "cs757_interior.MDL" and now, the overhead is perfect.

CS, could you manage the 757-200 material like the 300 ?

I think it will never happen. Too much work with too low income.

Fly on 753 instead! Every man know - larger is better! Smiley)))))

tested and you're right, all is PERFECT on the 300 and 200F ! I contacted CS for the material issue.

By the way, I'm working on a new overhead night texture ! Preview in few day and you'll be able to add this on your package if you are agree of course.

I'm working too on other texture part of the VC.

All the best

Cool! Actually oh texture is good for me. But there is always enough room for perfection.

If you about those light corners (they are so cute Smiley ) - I think we can just fill LM with black, and that's it.

Anyway - let's join our effords via e-mail, results will be better.

This is my overhead night version :
All has been totally remake for an optimal night texture.







This version will be included on the Necroscop night patch later

Well done, man!
I think we can also repaint fuel-gauge and add backlightning to air-gauge.

Waiting for mail Smiley

Thanks !

Now I'm working on the left front night panel (BREAK RESERVE, AUTOLAND STATUS ...) who don't exist on the current version.

After that, I'll work on the maintenance panel. and I'll send you all this by email.

Now I hope that CS will correct the problem with the 200 version (All is perfect with 200F and 300)

The job will be finish tomorrow.

Xavier, keep me in the loop please! I have held off because I am not that tehcnically competent, but when you get things ironed out for the -200 (which is pretty much all I fly) I would love to have a set.

Yes ok, but for now, the VC model made by CS have a problem with all the material effect on the overhead (the $textures).

Right now, just the 200 freighter and the 200 work fine. I sent an email to CS to avoid them about this "bug" and I hope that they fix it on the next release.

All the best
