yes, it would be helpful when flying a battleship to have a realistic battleship bridge and not that of a liberty friegher (the rhino)

If you look in DATA\COCKPITS\ you'll see folders for the different types of cockpits. If you go further in, you'll see some *.ini files that define the *.cmp files for the game as well as set some camera data. In the "models" folder there should be the *.cmp file for the cockpit. This is the same format as the ship hull files and has a reference(s) to a *.3db file in it, and so theoretically a new cockpit could be made in the same fashion as a ship hull.

So it would be possible to create a cool looking cockpit and ignore the scale as long as the camera position is right? Great! *goes creating a cool looking cockpit for his Angel fighter*

in the folder
\DATA\EQUIPMENT\MODELS\PILOT

is a file named ship_pilot.3db, what program uses 3db? and how do I put him in my ship.
