Hi, so I already know that there is an AMSO LM cockpit repaint. For some reason I can't downloaded it, so that's why I'm making this request. Can anybody make an AMSO LM Cockpit repaint, but as compressed zip file. Thanks.

I'm asking to @4throck for the LM repaint since he gave us the link.

Here it is:

WeTransfer links are only valid for a few days. That's why the old link didn't work.

Feel free to use and share it on the forums. I don't take any credit for it.

But I ask you not the release it as an addon.
It's just a simple processing of the AMSO textures to make them darker, it doesn't add anything.
An addon must add something or improve it in a meaningful way.

@DDasng1352 Note that it is a RAR file and not a ZIP file. You will require 7Zip to extract RAR files. Google for "7zip".

The dark textures does improve the cockpit in a meaningful way and are not just a "simple processing of the AMSO textures". Look at the difference between the navball in the original and darkened texture in Apollo CM:

In the current sense, an add-on is anything that "adds content" to Orbiter. Therefore, a texture repaint should be an add-on as long as the repaint enhances the target vessel. This texture repaint does enhance the AMSO cockpits by making them more realistic.

@4throck Can you make another WeTransfer link with the same item. I accidentally deleted mine.

A bit of topic, but is there any way to repaint the CSM so it looks like the CSM from the photo provided below. 390px-Apollo_CSM_lunar_orbit.jpg
