Hi Everybody,thank you for all your replies. I have downloaded and compiled
2.4.0 from the website. I have cloned fgdata on my local machine. Until I
compile 2.5.0 from git, I am cheating by using the data from 2.4.0 + symlinks
to the c127p and Instruments-3d folders from fgdata from git. I don't know how
evil that is, but this is only temporary.
The good news is that I haven't seen any duplicate work done on the new
cockpit. There is a new EGT instrument. I will punch a hole in the panel
geometry for it.
I have a question regarding the amount of ambient light. It seems to have
changed a lot since 1.9.1. This is particularly obvious when flying towards the
sun. On my monitor, with a gamma close to 2.2, the panel and the instruments
are getting hard to read. This will not be a problem with glass cockpits. I
imagine the sky + skydome illumination model has been modified improve realism
on the landscape. Please look at this screengrab, and click on the following

I saw a post by Curtis Olson regarding non-illuminated sides of materials, but
the Cessna materials "ambient" values don't seem
"wrong".http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=24093698
Please let me know your comments.ThanksStephan.
