Wow. Even by your standards, this is outstanding DTM. Absolutely brilliant work.

Especially love the NR colors. What does it say in Aurebesh on the wings? :D

I really like this design.

The cockpit doesn't match the one canon source we have of the design, but yours looks a lot better than the canon design, a lot less boring.
Also is that Elite: Dangerous concept art on the right side screen? Looks like concept art for their Solar System map screen.

Thanks a lot for this wonderful work!


Newbie questions: I've updated the skirmish picture into ShipStuffUCP5.dat (I used the TIE Reaper's slot in DSCUP), and the hull picture into Hull_Icons_UCP.dat. Also edited a map picture (after reducing the size of the hull picture) to Map_Icons_UCP.dat. Anything else I'm missing?

Also: I had to look for the pictures of the previous item inside the DAT files. Is there a simpler method to know what's where? The "Species No" in Mxvted gives the index number for the skirmish picture, but for the hull picture and map picture I don't know at all where the corresponding index can be found...

I have improved the Cockpit, and it is now enabled as a Dynamic Cockpit. It is also ready for when the Active Cockpit function will be active.

You may find the new version at MTDIndustries site. :D
In the realization of this cockpit I made several experiments with masking textures. In this way all the screens are personalized. The same can be done for other ships in several ways.
I'd like the opinion of the comunity...

Brilliant work, DTM! In the targeting computer, there's a couple of horizontal blue/cyan glowing bars that seem to blend with the contents of the target display... How did you achieve that!?

:shock: It looks so pretty. I have been following what you all are doing with the dynamic/Active cockpit and it is like a dream come true. Reminds me of flipping all those switches and dials in my old Falcon 4 cockpit.
May the Force be with you all.

:shock: DTM... brilliant as always... :D I know it's not cannon for me to do this, but this version of the A-Wing (RZ-2 Awing that is.... ;) ) will be my mainstay in the game.

Edit: Wow... all targeting screens work!!! Love it!! (DTM... not saying they wouldn't … it's just amazing to see them in action work.... :D ) And DTM since you like an opinion I notice the beaming display and shielding display's are switched.. not a problem I just noticed how the display's are much better there... I really love the displays above ( beaming and shield display's) where the enemy and friendly (or neutral) displays are set, excellent job!!


Sincerely, Rogue518
