Description
Note:
The update to version 1.1 is not mandatory, if your current files still work as intended. I only updated them according to and matching the v0.7.0 stable version which has been released by Headwindsim on January 24th, 2025. There are no changes in the mod itself.
Clean windows for the Headwind A330-900
Unzip the downloaded file. You will receive four .dds files.
Rename the corresponding files in the texture folder (see path below) if you want to use them again later.
It is sufficient to add "alt" or "orig" or anything else to the beginning of the file name (example: oldGLASS_PNG.dds).
To switch back simply delete the four "clean" windows files and remove the "old" or whatever you have chosen. This will bring back the dirty windows.

Copy the 4 new files into the texture folder.
Cleaning windows is that easy ;)
Happy landings everyone!

Really nice to see the clean glass. However, loading in cold and dark results in some glass areas no longer appearing as glass. Perhaps there are a few more texture files that need your touch. I uploaded a screenshot in the User Gallery but it's waiting approval.

I checked the glass parts but couldn't see anything missing. Your screenshot looks ok as well. At least on the left side front window you clearly see reflections. Depending on the angle of view it sometimes might appear as if there is no glass at all - apparently the windows are too clean now :D I would recommend that you switch to drone view and slowly (!!) move backwards into the cockpit so you can see when you pass the glass and/or change the angle of view. The glass texture is one layer and can't be divided, hence you either have everything with glass - or nothing.

My screenshot isn't showing any issue with the windows, perhaps I should have been more clear. What my SS is pointing at is the glass parts above the FCU or Glare Shield and the Barometric Pressure display. They look alright when you power the AC on but when it's cold and dark they look like painted metal. I never noticed this until I installed your textures. Could it be an issue with the original textures as well? I'll have to double check. :D

Aaaah now I see what you mean. Well, those parts are in different texture files (glareshield and mainpanel.dds) and not part of the windows texture. The different look comes from switching from a static image to the interactive part as soon as you powered up and turn a knob - for example. The impression there is like a non-reflective surface to avoid readability issues - which makes sense in my opinion. You might know that from polarized lenses on (sun-)glasses as well.
