Eee3 74 Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 (edited) Hi All, here the MOD of LAGG-3 and La-5 cockpits retextured in 4K quality. All textures repainted from scratch. Some elements (mostly instrumets) have been modified for more historical accuracy JSGME friendly https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Ml7N1diM50XQNv59YFcH_fy2_HSFUnAx/view?usp=sharing Some screenshots: Edited October 22, 2020 by Eee3 9 6 10 Link to post Share on other sites
Atomic_Spaniel 92 Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Looks very nice! If you modify the instruments does it effect other aircraft? Link to post Share on other sites
Eee3 74 Posted September 17, 2020 Author Share Posted September 17, 2020 Yes, Il-2 (all), Yak-1, Pe-2 ser.87 and La-5 will be affected because they use shared texture. Link to post Share on other sites

Ala13_UnopaUno_VR 419 Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 (edited) Very very good, I have tested it with VR and it is appreciated to be able to read the indicators, and the details! Hopefully in the future all the cockpits will be 4k, without having to use MODS: D Edited September 25, 2020 by Ala13_UnopaUno_VR Link to post Share on other sites
Oyster_KAI 1460 Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 (edited) Very detailed remake It must have taken a lot of time and effort. Do you have the next plan? Edited September 25, 2020 by Oyster_KAI Link to post Share on other sites

simfan2015 195 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 I have tested this mod that was put/copied over Oyster_KAI's enhanced cockpits. Works out great, amazing ! Amazing !!! Link to post Share on other sites

CanadaOne 1978 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Pardon my being a bear of very little brain, but when I unzip the file I get a "data" file and two more files inside that, which file goes into the mod folder in the game? Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites
simfan2015 195 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 (edited) (FWIW what I did ...) If you unzip the archive then the Directory structure should be maintained. The exact same structure is present in the IL-2 GB installation. the files in the 'planes/your-plane' and 'textures/common' directories must be copied and may be replaced if already present. A backup prior to this operation may be adviseable (in the very unlikely case you don't like the replacements). However, if you have already use it you could also have the JSGME utility make these changes ! DO NOT FORGET : MODS ON These IL-2 GB 4K cockpits are awesome ! Good Luck Edited September 28, 2020 by simfan2015 1 Link to post Share on other sites

To use mods you must first agree that you want to use mods but also the server settings must also allow Mods to be used by the players. That is for Online servers really so players do not make transparent skins etc. Link to post Share on other sites

blue_max 155 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Beautiful work! I've been using Oyster's 4k upscaling mod until now. How do the two compare? Link to post Share on other sites
Eee3 74 Posted October 19, 2020 Author Share Posted October 19, 2020 These mods uses different techniques. Hand repaint is very time consuming, but provide better result. Besides, additional time is needed to search for info, to make some parts more historical accuracy. For example here is comparison image of water temperature indicator (original, modded and real instrument). 3 Link to post Share on other sites
blue_max 155 Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Ah, I see. Amazing work! Then I'll use Oyster's mod for all the cockpits, and then use your beautiful repaints for the lagg-3 and la-5. Keep up the great work! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
hebog5 10 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Great work, thank you. Have enabled through JSGME but nothing has changed. I must have missed understood something but have no idea what. Link to post Share on other sites

hebog5 10 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Thank you Eee3. I have put folder [data[ in JSGME and enabled ok, but nothing changes. Mods are enabled in game as I use PWCG and great mods by some others too. Your work looks so realistic it would be a shame not to have it. I will try putting extracted archive into game folder, when I have worked out exactly how to do that! Link to post Share on other sites

For JSGME you need to create a folder for the mod (with the mod name you like) under your JSGME MODS folder. 'data' must go inside that new folder, so the final folder structure looks like this: [game folder] > MODS > [theModNameYouLike] > data > ... If you directly put 'data' in the MODS folder you will have a mod called 'data' in JSGME, and it will not work. Edited October 22, 2020 by yeikov Link to post Share on other sites
hebog5 10 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 (edited) You did it! Thank you very much for taking time to help. The work is terrific. Sorry, one question, will the new download [with LA-5] over ride the original or must I delete and put in new named folder? Thank you. OK, got it now, just replaced, Great.

I do hope you keep on going for other planes. Pity if you just did stay to only two plane models. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

blue_max 155 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 (edited) The La-5fn would be awesome to be honest, if I fly La, I always fly 5fn PS: the cockpit looks amazing in VR!

blue_max 155 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 is it the Ju-52? 😛 That old lady is in desperate need of better cockpit textures. 8k even, just going by how much surface area there is t cover and how crappy it looks now compared to these 4k texture mods!
