Thread: Is it possible to change the pilot face?

  1. #1

    Default Is it possible to change the pilot face?

    I was wondering if I could put my face in the cockpit as opposed to the standard one?
    I did a search but could not find anything.

    Thanks!

    Thanks, that partly helps.
    There's over 900 files in the texture folder :-eek
    If somebody knows which file I should modify it would be great.
    I found a pilot.bmp in there but it is not the same guy I see in my 737...

    And can the file be of any format/size/compression/whatever or any bmp will do?

    i would look in the texture folder for the plane you wish to "fly". the file needs to be in a format recognised by FS, i would keep the same format as the original file, although i believe you can resize it so long and you keep to the same layout and resize by a factor of 2.

    There is no relevant file in the aircraft\texture folder.
    I checked all the ones I have!
    Thanks for helping anyway.

    You won't find it by "name," as it is only one of MANY images on the same texture file!

    You have to LOOK at the .bmp file using either ImageTool or DXTBMP to "uncompress" them for viewing.

    To save you some time, they are located in the lower left corner of the b737_400_t.bmp file.

    yes, you need to find the texture with the original face and substitute yours. I put my face and Liz Hurly's in this C152 and even gave myself a Winston Cup NASCAR cap.
