is there a 757 with a decent virtual cockpit?

[sehender]

i hate to ask, given the fact that i have never created ANYTHING for other simmers to share, but this is one of my favorite planes, and I'd love to have a good one with a virtual cockpit...

anyone made one?

The only problem is that these virtual cockpits are not visible in Virtual Cockpit view. Instead they are made of bitmaps built onto the plane which you can see when in cockpit view.

I never quite developed a knack for building virtual cockpits into the aircraft in a design tool, which is required to be able to see them in Virtual Cockpit view. so I've relied on bitmaps but they work just as good. :D

To see the virtual cockpit in one of my planes, go to cockpit view, and use the numpad keys to look around. For example, press Shift + Numpad 9 and you'll see this:

Press Shift + Numpad 1 and you'll see this:

....And so on and so forth. Every cockpit view has a Virtual Cockpit bitmap like these. :D So, it may not be a full fledged virtual cockpit, but it's better than nothing! I worked pretty hard putting it together so I hope it'll work for you.

To download one of my 757s, log into Flightsim.com, go to Search File Libraries, type in "Brandon Williams" and then hit search. You'll see a whole bunch of my 757s. The ones with these Virtual Cockpits say "Full Pack" beside them. Download them and try 'em out!

Sorry for having to rely on bitmaps but it's alot better than nothing! :D
