- mesh : actual object
- tga : texture for mesh ( picture) ... photoshop 32bit rgb alpha channel enabled
- mat : properties for tga ( lighting , alpha etc.) ... via text editor

you can borrow those files from some other cockpit mod or even stock files ( it just have to be flat square object)

word of warning ... if you install any new mod which introduces hier.him file for your cockpit you need to modify it too ( same goes for mod packs)

hope that helps

cool picture!
When I teach the kids to fly,if they watch their own image in cockpit,they will be truely exciting and more intersting in learning.
