No more ghost cockpits...
« on: August 11, 2009, 05:53:01 AM »
I'd love to see the pilot in the cockpit with hands on throttle and stick.

Thank you.

Perhaps if theye did that the should also make it so you can customize the pilot. Hawian shirts and Cool aid mans for ALL!

And they would wear gloves and heavy leather jackets. And to be fair the pilot is white. Sorry, but he is. Just go to F3 in a bomber (I did it with the Ju88) press your 'look backwards' button, and zoom in enough to see the pilots.

Not sure if it was HiTech or someone else but they made a cool utility for AW that allowed you to change the .bmp file for the cockpit and customize it.

You could still do that in H2H.

I would like to use the La-7 pilot for all my pilots. He has a wicked mustache.

You can do that, but only for skins. So if a skinner wants to change the pilot's face or whatever he can. You can't do it on a player by player basis though.

Not really like one guy will look good in one plane and make your eyes bleed in another.

Greatly enhances immersion in my opinion. I'd love to see something like that in AH.
