Got the PMDG 737 NG series while on holiday and installed them. Just noticed one thing. The cockpit windows seem to be so reflective that you can't see anything inside. Is this meant to be like this? Or is this with old video cards and if so, is there a fix? I think the same thing happened on the MAAM B-25 but they had a fix for that. It would be nice to be able to see a bit more of the cockpit from the outside, no point for it to be so detialed if you can't see it.

Hmmmm not sure. I did not really notice them being terribly reflective. I know that they are a bit, and from a distance you cannot see much through them (I would fathom this is similar to reality) but closer I can see fine.

My life is like the movie Office Space

Got a reply from PMDG, if you turn of aircraft reflections, you can see the cockpit from the spot view. I'm still gonna see if I can find some half reflective textures I can use with it, like the MAAM B-25's.
Thanks,

I just tried the 737-600 in BMI baby livery and the cockpit windows seemed fine, with reflections, so it might be different textures or something.
