F-4E Clear Glass Mod
Glass in the F4E is very dark by default, especially in VR, which makes it really hard to see behind it. This is why i made this mod that makes the cockpit glass, hud and armored glass more transparent.
This mod is based on a livery, you can use liveries other than the default one if you edit the one you want to include the mod, other people will see the livery as long as it uses the files from the base liveries.
It is compatible with the Clear Cockpit mod.
HOW TO INSTALL:
- go to your \Saved Games\DCS\Liveries
- put the downloaded files into the "Liveries" folder
HOW TO ADD A DIFFERENT LIVERY:
- go to \DCS\CoreMods\aircraft\F-4E\Liveries\F-4E-45MC
- find the zip file containing the livery you want to use
- make a new folder in C:\Users\[USERNAME]\Saved Games\DCS\Liveries\F-4E-45MC\{your_folder} (folder name doesn't matter)
- copy over the contents from the zip file into that folder
- copy over the files from my mod into that same folder (DO NOT COPY OVER description.lua, ONLY THE .dds FILES)
- in the discription.lua put in the 5 lines of code from my folder so it looks like this:
livery =
{
[KEEP ANY CODE LINES THAT WERE THERE PREVIOUSLY IN HERE, SIMPLY ADD THESE 5 LINES BELLOW THEM]
{"HB_F-4E_INT_HUDGlass", DIFFUSE , "hb_f-4e_int_hudglass.dds", false};
{"HB_F-4E_INT_HUDGlass_RoughMet", DIFFUSE , "hb_f-4e_int_hudglass_roughmet", false};
{"HB_F-4E_INT_CanopyGlass", DIFFUSE , "hb_f-4e_int_canopyglass", false};
{"HB_F-4E_INT_CanopyGlass_Color", DIFFUSE , "hb_f-4e_int_canopyglass_color", false};
{"HB_F-4E_INT_CanopyGlass_RoughMet", DIFFUSE , "hb_f-4e_int_canopyglass_roughmet", false};
}
- OPTIONAL; change name = " " in the lua file to whatever you want the name that will be displayed in game to be like, example: name = "IDF clear glass"
