Some of our cockpits need a SERIOUS face lift

[Wilbus]

Gotto agree, allso, the new Spitfire cokcpits and the 109 E just looks exelent, wish all planes could have it.

The warbirds interface is better than the AH one, as far as new players are concerned.  It's more self-explanitory.  And even then the WarBirds interface is fairly unimpressive.

Once you learn the system and put the crude look of it behind you, the AH interface is better by far, but a lot of potential players don't stick around to learn it.  This translates into lost revenue for HTC.

I disagree that other planes have any worse cockpits than the P-51D. If I remember correctly, the P-51D was the very first plane ever made in Aces High (That's why it's number 1 in the plane type listing)

I do agree that the Aces High "cool factor" is lacking when compared to many boxed games. Better graphics and improved sounds could really help out I think.

So far as having customs sounds available, that's fine for those you have been playing and know about them. I think it would be better for HTC to put the best sound files in an 'optional downloads' folder on the web-site, so people who were just getting into the game could get the good sounds without having to look for them.

IMO, AH sounds are not top notch, even when you have many customs. There just dowesn't seem to be the depth of sound you get with other games. Arcade like or not, louder, more intense sound effects would be more fun.

The AH 109E cockpit looks very good. (Ofcourse, though it don't look as good as original ones...)
 
 Recently when IL-2 added 109F-4 to it's planes, I noticed the cockpit frames(with bolts running along the frame bars) look more simular to our 109E rather than our F-4. Are those um... 'solid-looking' cockpit frames something only the G models had? If so, I think the overall shape of the frames on the F-4 should be changed, too.

Pony D /109F-G should have their graphics redone they have the oldest aircraft graphics in the game right now. Of course the 190 cockpits should be  updated and the A5 the oldest of them all.

I want metric instruments for ze german planes.

good point i would love to see metric instruments for the german planes.but id rather they finish other planes 1st then redo those planes that are in serious need of a face lift.

The 190 looks like it has bambo sticks holding the canopy!.

Sorry, we're no longer making any more editions or improvements to the game.   Everything we do here is a waste of time.

Bah! Got that email saying Superfly had replied to this thread. Clicked on the link real fast hoping to see what Super was updating. And he's messing with us! Tackle him!

Hummmmmmm I have to agree about the cockpit thing...but I'd say its not that urgent, isn't it?

What I don't really understand is why the Ta152 has the magnific piece of art it has (that cockpit is IMO the best-looking one in any AH plane), while the Fw190s (wich could use the same cockpit art) still have the old-style cockpit.

It shouldn't be that hard to put the ta cockpit in the Fws...I guess >
