Description
The BlueBird 757 has serious cockpit texture issues if your texture resolution settings in MSFS 2024 are set to Medium or lower. Many cockpit labels, instrument markings, and placards become extremely blurry or almost unreadable due to mipmap levels that shouldn't exist for these particular textures, causing them to be downscaled and look terrible. Some textures look blurry even at their original resolution.
Also, the default backlighting for some labels and markings on the overhead panel was extremely dim. (source)
I went through the aircraft's texture files and made the following fixes:
- Removed unnecessary mipmap levels from affected textures to preserve their original clarity on Medium and lower settings
- Improved the overly dim backlighting for overhead panel labels and markings
- Since some textures looked bad even at their original resolution, they were upscaled
- External textures: in progress
Performance Impact:
Only textures that actually needed improvement were modified. Everything else was left untouched to minimize the impact on VRAM usage.
Based on my testing, the mod increases VRAM usage by ~350 MB. Actual results may vary depending on graphics settings and hardware.

BlueBird 757 — Texture & Lighting Improvements
This add-on addresses cockpit texture issues in the BlueBird 757, enhancing label and marking clarity at medium and lower texture settings. It removes unnecessary mipmaps, upscales certain textures, and improves dim overhead panel backlighting. Only essential textures were modified to minimize VRAM impact. External texture improvements are under development and MSFS2020 compatibility has not been tested.

Hotfix 2.1 • Several external textures have been removed from the mod because they were overriding textures on certain liveries, causing the engines to appear blue on all liveries and some textures to display incorrectly.
