      UPDATE Thanks to Harpoon for permission for this!

      Original mod: https://www.benchmarksims.org/forum/showthread.php?7091-Pilot-model-fo-F-16

      I have done a new texture for the LEGS portion only, as that is what I fly with. I might do a full one, but I don’t use the full model since I have problems seeing side panels even with TrackIR.

      Source material comes from my own photos of the Nomex flightsuit texture from a vest I made from one. Boot texture is not from military issued boot but close enough?

      There is a bit finer detail in my texture, but the gloss/specular is still there (I’m guessing a limitation in the graphics engine)

      Instructions: Rename to 8018.dds and replace 8018.dds in /Falcon BMS 4.3x/Data/Terrdata/objects/KoreaObj

            I have received permission from Harpoon, thank you. Also I did update the texture so it had a finer ‘thread’ detail to it, and better zippers.

                              Did you back up a copy of the original 8018.dds before overwriting it with phait’s new one? If so just re-apply the original .dds file. Or do you mean to remove the legs from the 3d pit completely? You’d need to look over the install instructions from Harpoon, and probably try to do them reverse. I haven’t been able to download the original yet so I can’t really say. Sorry.

                                i was going to ask which file, and in which format, needs to be replaced to change the kneeboards?

                                      Looks great first of all!

                                      Brief question. As already listed here, there is a huge glare/shine on the panel. Does that go away when using the kneepad editor?

                                        Unfortunately, no. The ‘shininess’ is a limitation of the graphics engine. If you got a head tracking device you can change the view angle and avoid looking straight into the shiny reflection, though.
