I just took the default a5 skin up and that looks normal. I then took Krustys JGr OSt or whatever it is "Hermann Grafs" and it is the one Wpeters posted. Its been that way a long time.

:headscratch:

Wonder how different players could see different text fonts on altimeter?

I think its just that one skin. I thought that was something Krusty did.

I looked at Krusty's skin (actually all of them) and it always looked like my screenshot.

I have seen the same thing before in a 190, I don't recall which 190 nor any skin; only a small handful of times and it was a long time ago. Idk.
They're casting their bait over there, see?

krusty did that because he thought it made reading the altimeters in german aircraft easier. you can modify any/all textures in a skin, not just the external ones.
I think it looks kind of silly and the inaccuracy is silly as well but to each their own I guess.
By the way those skins have been in the game, and the same way, since like '06-'07

obviously it's not going to completely accurate because german instruments were in a unit system that makes sense but I think that HTC's gauge has a much better feel of an original
