Nope.... just the mod.......

Place into MODS directory in your X3 Root Directory.

and choose it in splash screen, before you launch X3

wow this thing is awesome, egosoft really messed up with the decidion to remove cockpits.

they are fantastic, i forgot they even move and the hull and sheild damage bars work and everything, its utterly gtreat!!!

makes me feel like im really flying, if only every ship had a duf one with mayve just diff versions of ships having slight diffs. (ie raider n vanguard)

the cockpit even flashed with laser fire...mate ur the godfam muva f@cin best!!!

ps in ur screen shot the radar is all over the dash which put me off......but if you play in 1600x1200 res it looks like it is how it really should be, you will have to try it i cant explain

thanks....now c`mon artists out there finish this game off

Thanks again Galaxy613. Great job. X3 is that much more worth playing now

and it's much more realistic to fly through space now.

I'm having some problems with the space-suit view, there's transparent triangles sputtering and shifting all over the faceplate. I still consider it an improvement over the nothing I used to see flying cockpitless, but am wondering if anyone else is seeing the effect.

It looks like maybe there's a shader filter that worked in X2 but isn't meshing well w/ X3?

Thank you SO much. I really had a hard time getting over the loss of the cockpits. Egosoft should really be thankful for people in the community like you.

When i eject, I don't have a spacesuit cockpit... it's using a M3 cockpit for some reason... ??

Goto the first page and download the latest version, you won't have to restart your game and should work with any save game.

Many thanks for putting this mod together, much appreciated on behalf of all those wanting the cockpits back....

Now I just got one decision to make...

This cockpit mod with all ships done but no capital ship rebalance
or
The rebalance mod with only carriers cockpits...

Ummmm I dunno what to use

Sorry, but to make your decision THAT much harder, I just made a version of the Cockpit Callback mod that adds in the Minimal HUD mod. Check the first post for the URL

DarthVain · Post by **DarthVain** » Wed, 30. Nov 05, 03:54

Excellent, will test it 2night.

Thank you so much!

Egosoft/Enlight should really have put these in the official game as some form of patch so you can have more than 1 mod.

Cockpits really help this game!!! It's too bad the textures from X2 are a bit muddy compared to the X3's textures. Higher resolution would be nice but that's probably not possible.

It would be cool if the texture properties could render the reflective light properly though, like you see on the sides of hulls. There's still great light mapping, but it's just illuminating lower resolution textures and not actually overwhelming them with brightness.

That's ok, I think I just going to use the cockpits mod for now while I using my M3, then when I have enuff Credits to buy my TL I will switch to the Capital ships one

Great job!

Now I will give X3 a second chance... (sounds a little bit paradox, but who cares

)

Works like a dream with the hud mod included also. Even have better FPS.

Excellent job guys

A Cockpit AND a toned down HUD, - this game is looking better everyday.

Galaxy613 where do you live in VA? I'm from NC and want to buy you a beer!

The cockpit mod made it for me! And adding the minimal HUD is great!

Thanks to all.

Heh, thanks, too bad I'm under drinking age, but I gladly except donations of 6-packs of Mountian Dew.

Well when you start the launcher click the launch mod package button (fourth one I think?) and above ok is a button called "Orginal" click that and it should deselect all mods! Hope that helps.

Cheers!
