WARNING : Make sure your own downloaded C130 or AC130 liveries are all updated for the current Captainsim updates before you raise questions here.
Updated after CaptainSims V1.1.0 update
If someone like me who had done a quick purchase on the C-130 from the CaptainSim and then suddenly found that you just can't fly it from 20 yards behind.... well, this might be a quick and dirty fix for you.
Special thanks to Albie who gave me a hint to tweak the Cameras.cfg. He also gave me a higher resolution cockpit picture.
Special thanks to GroomLake who taught me how to prevent the problem of pilot inside of a pilot.
If you need a better cockpit graphics or a better sound, please contact Albie <== Click here for his uploads.
Captain sim had just updated the aircraft exterior, you have to redo the step 1,2,3,4 below.
Disclaimer :
This tweak does NOT provide you a working cockpit, not even close. It just makes you sit at the right place in the cockpit in order to fly properly. And you can see your co-pilot in the cabin as well.
How to ?.
1. Unzip my cameras.cfg, then find the folder of the aircraft.... captainsim-aircraft-m131\SimObjects\Airplanes\CS_C-130E, and look for a file "Cameras.cfg under this folder. Rename it for back up purpose and put my Cameras.cfg at that place.
2. In game, Go to Options => General => MISC and set the pilot and co-pilot back to default. (See one of the pages of the snapshot). The two pilots are part of the aircraft in the Captainsim's design, you can not remove or change them !
3. If you got the cockpit dds file (click here to download from Albie) , unzip and replace the stock dds in the .... captainsim-aircraft-m131\SimObjects\Airplanes\CS_C-130E\Texture
4. If you got the sound files from Albie, unzip and rename the folder name to "sound", replace the whole sound\ folder in the .... captainsim-aircraft-m131\SimObjects\Airplanes\CS_C-130E
Why it works ?
1. Step one anchors your cockpit view position to be inside of the cockpit rather than gliding 20 yards behind of the airplane, I can't fly a plane this way.
2. Step 2 is to prevent the problem of "Pilot inside of the pilot"
Enjoy it ! Actually, after the tweak, you will find that the Captainsim C-130 is a fun plane to fly and to park. When you parked the aircraft at the gate and called the ground services, you will feel very satisfied with this aircraft....

This is great. I'm enjoying flying the C-130 with these mods. I can fly in the cockpit nicely and with this add https://flightsim.to/file/51763/butler-fly I can get airpeed, direction, altitude and radio altitude read out to me over the speakeres!

It's a good one, but if possible, can someone make some panel plug ins for this aircraft ?

ご指摘の通りやり直して、SHOWCASEで表示されました。PILOTHelicopter Avatar Pack I - Military Packのリペイントを入れデフォルト以外でも所望のPILOTが表示されました。ありがとうございます。
As you pointed out, I did it again and it was displayed in SHOWCASE. PILOT Helicopter Avatar Pack I - The desired PILOT was displayed even if it was not the default with the repaint of the Military Pack. thank you.
Josephm700 author
The Military pilots are embeded in the aircraft model by the Captainsim. It can not be removed or changed. For pilot and co-pilot, you need to put both of them "default" in the setting to prevent too much of the odd situation.

World Update XII以降、コックピットの計器しか表示しません。デフォルトとJosephm700さんのcameras.cfgのどちらを入れても同じ表示となり、副操縦士等は表示しません。更新をお願い致します。
Since World Update XII, only the cockpit instruments are displayed. Both the default and Josephm700's cameras.cfg will result in the same display, and the co-pilot etc. will not be displayed. Please update.

I tried in my game and it works fine.
Quick checks :
A. Did you download my latest rev 1.1 ?
B. Did you go through the "How to" for at least step 1 and 2 ?
If it still failed, then I will look further....

I acquired the sound files, and did as told, no audio now, has this changed from the new updates?
Josephm700 author
I am not the expert on the sound mod, please check with the owner of the sound mod, my friend Albie, he is the expert.

I replaced the file Cameras.cfg and the pilots are still looking dead.
Josephm700 author
Cameras.cfg is adjusting your position to the right position of the cockpit. For the pilot, you wanna follow the instructions in the screenshot of this post and adjust your pilot setting in order to accommodate the bug of this airplane for the pilots.

The product of the plane was purchased of the type C-130 HERCULES Affiliate from CAPTAINSIM After purchasing and downloading, it was discovered that the product is a toy and is not true and does not simulate flying The simulation is like other products and this laughed at us and the sales policy within Microsoft MARKETPLACE .. and I demand a refund of the purchase amount because the product does not simulate simulation flight and there is nothing that simulates simulation flight in the cockpit...
Josephm700 author
Good approach of you. You are lucky, I could not refund any software after purchase due to the local law in my area.
