Hi all,

What do we need to do in order to have the crew displayed in the cockpit. I've been flying this model exclusively for the last week (loving every moment of it) but haven't found a way to get anybody showing up. From the external view it looks like a ghost plane...

As a suggestion - how about adding a flight engineer avatar to the 3rd seat. Doesn't have to be animated, and in a perfect world they'd be selectable as on/off so those who like doing the FE role don't have to worry about it getting in the way... ? Just a thought.

I'll pass this along to the team, as for seeing your own pilot model, I want to say that's a setting in Graphics. I'll have to check Tristar and verify that pilots aren't missing because I've seen the avatar in other aircraft.

Thanks for the reply,

My pilot avatar and copilot show up in all other 2024 native aircraft I use, so the settings in-game are correct.

I just find it funny I was so impressed by the Tristar it took me over a week to notice!

Beautiful model you've brought to us.

Can you send me a screenshot of the settings and the missing pilot and co-pilot in the aircraft please?

Now that was a learning experience, seeing as though I've never had any desire to take a screenshot before!

Here you go... hope these are what you wanted and are good enough.

I should have mentioned all other graphical settings are on ultra or high, and TLOD and OLOD's are maxed. I use the autofps app available on AVSIM, but had that turned off when taking the screenshots.
