Yeh, there's a program that removes the bullet hole damage from your windshield after you've been straffed.
A lot of CFSr's use it.
Have to say, I have never used this programme, will never use it, and am not really sure why any 'stockers' would want to.

I think it's gone beyond cheating.
There are so many that seem to be using 'no bullets' now, that it's become almost part of the game.
For me personally, I think it detracts from the spirit of the game and that's why I won't use it.
I use RAF662 gunsites and MCR and use them in open rooms. But even that's not a 'stock' set-up because they're both add-on's. I don't feel they give me an unfair advantage over other players, stock or otherwise, so I'm comfortable using them.

You know... the one with the inclinometer in it (rudder ball  Grin) and the divebreaks indicator.

That kind of depends -- if you're flying in an open-air cockpit it looks rather ridiculous to have these "in-the-open-air" bullet holes. Shocked Roll Eyes

Never seen an open air cockpit in CFS except for the upper part of some WW1 planes, but I don't fly them often.

Hmmm...well... most of us do. You can get it at our website if you want it. I don't think it's concidered cheating, I could fly just as well without it anyway.

Had a think about it and I think you're talking about Mantis's old P51 HUD. and Nope, it's not a cheat (that I'm aware of). I only think of cheats as something which may give an unfair advantage over a player who doesn't have it.

I totally agree with you on that point. It was not just a HUD for the p51 though. I'm not sure what you mean by HUD either. The HUD view is what you get when you are in normal cockpit mode and then press the W. This should be the same for all planes.

Yep, HUD = Heads Up Display.
The story as I understand it is that Mantis changed it for his P51 and gave it to the other 78th pilots and it was re-distributed from there. It may be the same for other aircraft as well. I've only seen it in a screenshot. It has more info than a regular HUD but it wouldn't help me as I wouldn't understand what it was telling me anyway, lololol.
