    Black Square C208 Caravan -Enhanced Cockpit - Image 1

    Description

    Enhanced cockpit  texture and digits for this wonderful mod that Black Square created.This "mod of the mod" has been designed to add small details to gauges, placards and instruments.You'll find hereafter non exhaustiv modifications made:

    -All cockpit placards redesigned with real life fonts used by manufacturer to label buttons and warnings.

    -KI-525 redrawn with real life instrument textures.

    -KI-229 compass redrawn with real life instrument textures.Yellow/ Green Needles colors corrected (were inverted in the original instrument)

    -KI206 compass redrawn with real life instrument textures.

    -KRA-10 redrawn with real life instrument textures.

    -Bendix-King and Garmin suite redesigned with correct fonts and logos.

    -Bendix-King digits reshaped to give them a less flat appearance.

    -Bendix-KIng font corrected for Number "7" digit which has in real life 3 segments iso 4.

    -Red /orangish background added to all Bendix/KIng suite.

    -Air Speed Indicator and Altimeter revisited with new fonts (ASI) and cosmetic modifications (Altimeter)

    -Warning Panel revisited with accurate fonts used on Cessna aircrafts.

    To make sure that this mod has no impact on performance, textures size haven't been increased.I made my best to use pixels available in the original product so you shouldn't see any performance degradation when using it.

    To install simply extract "BKC208MODENH " folder in your "Community" folder.

    Limitation known: None UFN

    Special thanks to:

    They just released version 0.1.5 of the BKSQ Analog Caravan on October 23rd, 2024. Wondering if any updates to this mod will be needed to account for new changes in interior cockpit graphics (release notes mention a few).

    Verified that using this mod with the latest 0.1.5 version of BKSQ Analog Caravan, makes the PMS50 GTN750 screen excessively dark and difficult to read no matter how the software's backlight settings are adjusted.

    Yes, indeed. Radio panel is barely readable after the last update.

    Great addition.
    Only one comment from me: would you be able to modify the very light grey colour that they used on the main panel and restore the much darker, factory Cessna grey?

    A cockpit mod for a cockpit mod, I love it :)
    I wonder if you have any insight into fixing one of the annoyances with the BS planes - the Yoke animation is not linear. Eg turn your real yoke 20% to the left and the in-game yoke moves only 10% or so. Then at the end of the range it will move really fast. This is not a control/hardware or curves issue because the Ailerons move at the correct speed matching our physical controls, it's just an animation problem with the cockpit (same problem in default MSFS planes).
    Looking at FWS 414 the animation of the Yoke is correct and linear, same with the Inibuilds A310 that comes with MSFS. PMDG also have correct yoke movement.
    Any idea how to change the animation to linear in a mod? That's all that's left to make the BS planes perfect.
    Thanks!

    Hi there and many thanks for your Black Square mods - I'm using them all!


    I use Addons Linker and It appears to have highlighted a typo in one of the 208 Caravan files - the title reference shown on line 4 of the manifest.json inside the BKC2088MODENH folder reads,


    "title": "CoinCoin Cockpit Mod Baron",


    I've changed mine to Cockpit Mod Caravan but wanted to check with you... :)

    Be useful if you pointed out the differences .... I can't tell if its working.

    What does this mean ? --- -Bendix-KIng font corrected for Number "7" digit which has in real life 3 segments iso 4.


    And does it work with any livery ? Any dashboard colour mod ?

    See attached screenshot in PM.

    No it only work with BKS Caravan.Color of the dashboard color has been slightly modified also but you can find as many colors of the dashboard than you can find photos of the real cockpit.To my taste, it's the better match i found but you can find intflightsim different colors of it.
