Hi
There's a file to change that "staggerwing no yoke shadow.zip" to eliminate the shadow if you want. Canīt remember where I got it or the author. Can send it to you if you PM me think it would be legal...
Think the yoke shadow has to do with model, not with repaints. Removed mine anda works with all repaints.
Cheers
Many thanks. I got it sorted with a repaint.

As I recall, it's not that it's supposed to be a shadow, but rather it's supposed to be the "reflection" of the yoke on the "glossy" panel (you'll note too that the seats are "reflected" in the panel as are the braces/posts).

The 'shadow' put me off the aeroplane after I first saw it and from that day deleted it from my virtual hangar. If there is a fix, I would love to know as perhaps in the future would reload the design into my sim. Having a few hours behind the real thing, I was really looking forward to this, but now maybe it's time to give it a second chance.
Many thanks,

Firekitten and Ron Attwood both produced a vc texture file minus the yoke shadow. If neither of them show up here I'll attach the texture to a post.

Roger,
Many thanks, but a friend of mine sent me the relevant file this morning. Wasn't quite sure where it had to go, but found out by looking in the texture folders first! Got there in the end!
Now, re-installed and hoping to beat my real life time in the days ahead. Currently off work awaiting work on my shoulder so should have some sim time soon. Now got to see if can find a repaint for G-BRVE, the Staggerwing I used to fly in.
This is what SOH is all about. Helping one another when problems arise!
Many thanks,
Martin
Could you please share this file with us?
Mike
You could say where you got it and who did it.
Here maybe?
Sorry Ron, very rude of me, an unusual oversight on my part. The file did the trick. Many thanks

Could I please get a copy of said file. I hate the shadows on the panel.

I put the replacement file in the texture.common (hope that was right place for it). Now I am wondering where the yoke shadow was. Your panel looks lighter then mine which is a bit darker

I don't currently have the Alabeo Staggerwing, although I played with the file Ron has a bit.
I'll upload sometime soon.
Pay no attention to the backwards lettering as it does not affect the file I created.
You betcha.
Hopefully this looks alright. A screenshot would be appreciated for my visuals.
Two posts down you'll find the link

Here is what it looks like on my rig Oldboy, Is this the desired effect? Is the shadow on the top of the dash (Just below the compass) suppose to look like that.
The bottom part of the panel is lighter and less of contrast from the instruments.
one below is from beaufighter and noted in yellow is splotchy texture in panel areas.
Ahh crap. Not only is it upside down, but the wrong file type.
This is a perfect example that having the model to test things is the best approach.
This should fix that. http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum...d=117&id=19180
