Using smoked plexiglas - Hey RandyT!

Dr. J:

That's cool.  Can you show us a pic of the smoked glass with the room lights on.  Does it look tinted?  8)

PoDunkMoFo:

My Star Wars Cockpit has 1/4" thick glass.  Very brown looking and it works great.  Of course it's a vector game, don't know if that makes a dif.

Carsten Carlos:

Thanx, Oscar, that pictures did really help! (as usual  :D)

I found something similar at the local hardwareshop - but made of rubber. If it should work, I'll post it here!

Hey all,

Just wanted to say that I picked up some 1/8" smoke/tinted plexi (31 beans cut to size - from a local glass store/company)...

it really made a huge difference in the over all look and presentation of my cab... it hides the bezel and monitor mounts etc beautifully...  and it does make the vertical games look a little better on my horizontal 21" PC monitor

thanks to oscar and randyT for  pointing out this technique.

I took some digital pics but not sure if they're really good representations cuz i'm lousy w/my camera.. *shrug*

Is there arny tips for adjusting brightness/contrast and colors for maximum effect? Bueller?
