Pilot house mod for DC?

Does anyone happen to have the Pilot house mod by Orzel for DC? I saw it mentioned in the Subsim archive in 2002! It looks like it allows the left and right view in the pilot house at 1024x768.

I don't remember that one offhand, but I recall one by Darkstream that I used in my own
game, called Outside Bridge.

It did much the same as you mentioned in your post.

It gave you the left/right views, and you could steer the ship and use the engine telegraph as well. At 1024x768,btw.

IIRC the binoculars did not work.

Thanks. That sounds like a cool mod. I will keep searching. When I play combat sims I usually fight from "on the ship" only, do not use external views.

Otherwise I'm happy with Destroyer Command and the mods that I have found so far. Just figured out that a lot of SHII graphics mods also work for DC.

Thanks to Subsim for the DC mod page!
