how to create a cockpit with antenna?

thats my cuestion.
i have my cockpit but i would like to add a anntena.
thanks.

I am not sure if there are available surfaces for that in the shape, so one solution could be using a .tag with gpxpatch info only visible in cockpit view. Like a virtual antenna.

Thanks GP3Hotlaps

I think there is a cockpit with antenna in the old download section. I have downloaded it some 2 years ago.

I have just checked it and it's in "Carshapes" section. It's a 214kb file.

here is mi cockpit.i need add a antenna to complete the real shape

Generally, to edit cockpit shape you need CarEditor.

1.You click "import car from exe"
2.Go to the left and you will see "Car:Cockpit". Click on it.
3.Go to "Verticies 181"

There you will find 181 points described by means of three axes: X,Y,Z.

X - you move the points from left to right.
Y - you move the points up or down
Z - you advance or retract the points

You just change these points (verticies) by clicking on them on the preview screen or manually, by applying certain values yourself on the left.

The most effective method to comprehend cockipt edition is "trial and error" method. Just stick at it and one day things will get brighter. What I remember is that point (84) is a cockpit view steering wheel while points (3) and (4) are the front wheels seen in the cockpit.

If you want to deal with the antenna, I suggest that you downloaded the cockpit with antenna and tried to edit its shape.
