heres the speed gauge for the 27 with the flapperoonies on

As for the darkened cockpit texture, the bitmap interior texture is 3mb, even zipped up its 560k which is too big to post here. Sadly I don't have any webspace of my own to post files or images but if you pm me your email i will send it to you.

Alternatively i will see if I can post it for you on the CTDB website.

Have a look at this original post: The gauge set works fine for both the 15m and 18m Ventus birds. You can d/load the 2 rar files from here but please backup your gauge files first.

All gauges have been uploaded on CTDB!
Excepted for speed indicator and Nimbus gauges, all gauges are the same for every gliders so I placed them in "generic" folder.

Visit CTDB (http://condor.ephemeride.com), goodies section, then choose those you want. Install is automatic. (but read instruction about "goodies downloader").

hi Big Al, I really like your gauges, but I noticed that the flapperoonies on ASW27 looks much much realistic with the modeled letters. Are you going to make similar gauges for the other gliders :?: :?: :?:

Thanks, I always forget which flap to use on what speed, so this helps a lot :D

Hi!

I already have some nice gauges. Can someone tell me how can I create reflection? What is the method? I think I have to do that with photoshop, but how?
Take a reflection from some kind of pictures and paste on the speedface for example?
I can not figure out! :wink:

I reworked some instruments, putting some glass reflection, and I did new the rim as well and changed the screws from silver to black.
Is that realistic or not? :wink:
