I only have one question : What's going on???  Undecided
Planes from Captain Sim used to be quite decent, pre-MSFS.
The last few releases have, honestly, not lived up to the otherwise good reputation you used to have.  Huh

Not entirely clear on why you would sell an incomplete product to people?

The product probably does not fit your needs, but the C-130 Captain Exterior is a complete product.

I think you are making it clear you have zero desire to answer the question of why you won't commit to developing your products into something more, you ignore the questions or outright delete posts that challenge you. This is foolishness and only serves to further damage your reputation as an addon developer but I sense you won't listen to that advice. Be it on your own head.

I think it's a shame.  Sad The think that disappoints me the most is, that I know that Captain Sim is (or at least was.....) capable of delivering so much more than this.  Undecided

For those of you who don't just want to stare at a blank cockpit, I've tried my best to paint gauges in  . . . however,  it is not possible to paint high quality gauges, as the cockpit section makes out less than 5% of the .dds graphics file . . . everything is out of focus  . . . ?  CS should at least allow us to paint a better cockpit if a cockpit with working gauges is not available . . . . .
Look at the jpeg attached, if you like it, send me an e-mail at armithea@gmail.com and I will send the .dds, it was too large to post it here.

That's an exterior model cockpit which is not designed for the interior POV use.

Why then does it come up by default as "internal view" when you switch between views ? So it is there, as setup by CS in Camera file . . . Therefore it only makes sense that CS should have painted this section and not left it almost blank.

Hi,

I'm considering picking this up, and know that it has no VC, but I'm wondering what you do see when you load the plane to fly? Are you always looking at the exterior view as you fly or do you start with essentially a big open window but sitting at an eyepoint as if you were inside the cockpit?

Also, there are screenshots of the cargo bay interior so I'm wondering if you can move your eyepoint backwards into the cargo bay (combination of arrow keys, etc)?

Thanks.

Hi rcafgunner,
You have an external and internal view - I have posted a jpg previously showing the internal view, which is basically a painted section of the fuselage, but seen from inside the aircraft.  It would appear that not everybody sees this view, you need to setup your camera.cfg in order to display it - iow change the viewpoint settings.

Problem is... it's being offered on MSFS Marketplace as "C130 Hercules" ie missing the EXTERIOR qualifier which makes it sound like an aeroplane grown ups might actually want to fly... instead of the gamer-kid graphic that has seriously pissed me off! Sad
