For other newbs like me, here is the cockpit mod.

I just got this game, and am very impressed with the gameplay, graphics and music, but its seriously lacking the most obvious thing any immersive flight sim needs, and that is a funking cockpit view...

After some digging and registering at a site I downloaded a mod and its 100x better. Just point the installer to your X3: Reunion game folder in Steam/Common apps and you will be rocking out with your cockpit out.

Now if only I could fix the part where my Joystick and throttle are reversed. I have an X52, who else knows how to fix it so the thrust lever works for throttle?

Edit: Fixed link. You must first register and then select the last download called X³: Reunion Cockpit Mod by Imp

It's been a while since the original post, but readers, know that there are reported cases that the Saitek X52 joystick throttle wolrs only if you DONT check the 'Use Throttle' option at the setup window that pop-ups when the just before the game starts.
