While tweaking ac for taildragger style, i encountered some tail-sinking reault.. as shown in previous pic. finally i found the reason. see pic.
the measurement for ac.dat is, start from nosetip of 3d model.
check the ac.dat here.. the length of ac is about 51 feet. the center of gravity, CG is 35 ft from nose!
so, in Gear XYZ location, the measurement is from the nose too..
nose gear position is 25 ft from nose, main gera is 45 feet from nose!
the result is, you can see CG is between nose gear and main gear location, so the ac sit right on the groud, no more tail sinking!
the measurement for ac.dat is, start from nosetip of 3d model.
Code: Select all
# Gear X, Y, Z, Rng
25 0 5.7 100
45 -13.875 5.7 100
45 13.875 5.7 100

Good! But how looks the old wrong data?ccc wrote:While tweaking ac for taildragger style, i encountered some tail-sinking reault.. as shown in previous pic. finally i found the reason. see pic.

no, i don't mean old data is wrong. acutally all old data works.Good! But how looks the old wrong data?
i just to tell how the physical data is measured.
in my previous tweak, i mistakenly set the landing gear XYZ, with the value from lod editor.. say, nose gear X =10, main gear X = -5. guess what, the ac tail sinks because CG location is not between the two values.

upgrade an old toy to Hawkeye2000 standard..
Re: Test 3d toys in sim - warning -pics.
this one is based on an outdated FS98 free model.. some parts are replaced with my 3ds.
not a hi-quality one, just fun to have it flying in falcon world - bring back the memory of JetFighter II and Strike commander days!

Re: Test 3d toys in sim - warning -pics.
old toy, new tweak.. guns and targetting radar aim at me now
tho i added slots in lod, and edit store data with f4browse( only add Weapon, not HP), the 3d slots and f4browse data do not match.. so the SAM and gun tracers seem launching from mid point of ship model..
also the turret ROM seems limited by some file, keep jumping back to neutral position

Re: Test 3d toys in sim - warning -pics.
test a 3d toy in POH beta..note this sea tile.. seems brighter than default korea one..sunny mediterean sea? the fleet is cruising in the narrowest part of Gibraltar strait.
the ship is not happy with my fly-by.. note the meroka CIWS try to aim at me..
take another ride over default korea sea tile.. much darker.. about to land on this mini carrier..
alright land on the deck- a bit sink into deck due to data setting error. but i do land there and look around for a while..yeah mini carrier.. the feeling is about the same as last time i tested italian garibaldi.

Re: Test 3d toys in sim - warning -pics.
Those new sea tiles are the way to go---much prettier IMO.
Re: Test 3d toys in sim - warning -pics.
So I thought when I used it. I remade all coast tiles to use this sea tile(huge work ). They are free to be used in other theaters, just credit me..
On the perfectionist side, I think now it is slightly too bright. Perhaps it is a common palette matter.
BTW: Thank you very much CCC for the "Príncipe de Asturias" carrier. You are so great.

Re: Test 3d toys in sim - warning -pics.
I really really like this!
Is it possible to make some sort of addon of this so these are added in addition to the current aircraft?

yes, you can add all new toys to customized database. AFAIW, POH has not reach Database-making status yet.. no hurry.Is it possible to make some sort of addon of this so these are added in addition to the current aircraft?
Re: Test 3d toys in sim - warning -pics.
another old toy with new skin..
alright AI wont fly closer, so i can not have a close formation flying over the carrier..maybe human MP can do it someday

Re: Test 3d toys in sim - warning -pics.
last batch of pics on spanish carrier...compared with monster US carriers, you got to land carefully.. the safety margin is narrow
look to front and 2 o'clock
tweak to make harrier land properly ON the deck.. well.. the main gear is missing
this view to show how it looks like when in the tower..
BTW - i found it's very hard to do an U-turn on the deck! i tried to turn and taxi to the end of deck for takeoff run.. but the width of deck is narrow and i just fell into water.. boom!

Re: Test 3d toys in sim - warning -pics.
Just out of curiosity, I understand that we cannot simply add new planes to F4 (database), we need to replace old planes or leave the adding up to the big modding groups like FF/RV etc, is that correct?
In any case CCC, do you store your all models shown in these screenshots, so if one day we get to add some of them in, we can get them from you?
Perhaps RAR the models up and send to me for double backup?

Replacing old ones is easier, but adding new slots need more knowledge and experience.Just out of curiosity, I understand that we cannot simply add new planes to F4 (database), we need to replace old planes or leave the adding up to the big modding groups like FF/RV etc, is that correct?
only very few guys good at this part of modding.. so i suggest let capable hand do the job. no hurry.
In any case CCC, do you store your all models shown in these screenshots, so if one day we get to add some of them in, we can get them from you?

ATM i keep sending a copy of zip to Ranger, as a backup. if you want the files, let me know.

Re: Test 3d toys in sim - warning -pics.
Haven't see preview thread my movies and other screenshots? ccc has a VERY old topic where you could see also many 3D models. Check my feature preview movie and screenshots in preview thread. What will you see?so if one day we get to add some of them in, we can get them from you?
- New A-6E model with new skin.
- New A-50 model (and also Il-78 and Il-76 got new very fine looking 3D model).

Re: Test 3d toys in sim - warning -pics.
I just generally meant that we can have the ability to add the "hundreds" of models ccc has posted screenshots out of. I didn't mean to replace some FF5 A-6 model or something specific like that, I'm sure the new models are superb.
