• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Hi all,

This is a project I've been involved with for over 4 years now and we're finally nearing the end. My role over the past 2 1/2 of those years has been to transform the cockpit into something authentic and usable in-sim. The original cockpit was done by two other artists. While they did a fantastic job, they did not capture many of the colors and details of the plane correctly (we also didn't have very good reference when we started). Some of the more noteworthy parts that I've built from scratch are the autopilot panel/glareshield area, center console, tiller wheel, MCDUs, throttles, speedbrake handle, and all knobs on the overhead. Besides those, I've made various major and minor mesh/texture enhancements to most parts of the cockpit (dirt/wear on the overhead, for example).

Nice - if it flies as good as it looks - we're in business - though it will always be an MD to me !

Stunning. As a longtime sim flyer of MD-jets, this is my number one most anticipated upcoming release [of 2016, right?]! ;) Great work to you, Brandon, and then entire TFDI team! You da real MVPs!
 
Hey Hughes-MDflyer4, I was interested to know if the Autobrake was going to be added to the overhead beside the Antiskid.

Attached is an example of a 717 that used to fly into LHR that I worked on a few times
