The 1946 servers that do have cockpit only, are a bit too hardcore for me (have icons off, and teams are not red/blue, so you cant really see who is who. and the have the speedbar off, so you need to watch that low detail cockpit airspeed indicator all the time).

anyways, playing some nice sim TD in bop now

Are you sure about that? When I check hyperlobby it's more like 90% cockpit only with NO external view.

And in the hardcore servers - bind a key to zoom, it helps ID a plane so you don't waste energy diving on teammates planes. Also, tracer colors can be a dead give away for many planes.

I play both server types- one of my computers has Track IR setup and I play full-real on that one, but prefer open cockpit on my PC at my other house because I don't have Track IR on it.
