C-131_VC_Update

A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category FSX Panels

Description: I did not spend a lot of time researching the exact avionics, colors, types of switches or locations of various items in the VC. What I did do is replace the blurry textures with ones that have better resolution. I personally like seeing things that I can tell what they are and not have to guess. So this is my reworking of the VC in question. If you decide to keep it, I hope you like what I've done. . . .if the lack of authenticity kills the immersion factor for you, it won't hurt my feelings if you drop it in the trash can.

Really a much needed big improvement Ed. Thanks for doing this.

Hi

How did you improve the textures? Did you manually draw everything again after extending the texture?

I initially up the texture size to 4096x4096, then from there some things are redrawn but much of what I did was done using a vast library of textures I've gathered over the years like the soundproofing, the ducting that runs along the floor on both sides, the sherpa seat textures and so on. I also researched the cockpit for the CV-340 to see if I could find avionics, gauges and so on that are better resolution to replace things that are too blurry on the overhead panel.

Ah I see, that's smart to get it done easier. Unfortunately I don't have a library of textures with a sort of index to find things quickly. But still hard work as I know from my trials.

Keep up the good work.
