3D Cockpit Looks Awful

[dkohl]

I'm new to MS FSX... so forgive what may be a dumb question. I have found that there are two cockpit views -- one that is static (displays primary flight instruments) and one that allows scrolling / turning. This second view is awful.... looks like a smooth, computer generated area of "flat" texture, and has a semi-clean version of key flight instruments. When I look at the screen-shot forums, I see so many fabulous looking interior cockpits. What am I doing wrong?- David----David KohlMS Flight Sim X[/b]iMac runing WinXP Home on Boot Camp[/b]CH Pro Pedals and Yoke USB.

Th defalut AC 3 d pamels are not the best. If you want a descent 3d cockpit you will nee to get some addons, if you want some free stuff try PAD premier aircraft design, their TWOtter isnt too bad

Make sure global texture is up, and hi-res vc checkedHere's my default c172Looks pretty nice to me!

Go to "settings" -"display" and make sure "High-resolution 3_D virtual cockpit" is checked.

The Cessna 172 vc is very well done. In comparison I find the Mooney Bravo vc to be a real disappointment. I tend to avoid it and use the 2D view instead.

>yeah mooneys are always neglected as well as the barons it>seems :)I agree! I wish some developer would do them both.

Well Carenado do seem to have a really nice mooney. And the aeroworx B200 I think there is a FSX version of too :)
