• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

    Those canopy lips are nightmares, Adding structural frame inside the shell, Engines and props!. Decided by speculate how things are done around the canopy, just to get a logical feel of how structural frame and sheet metals are done there. Also can't get a figure of what slider type used for the...

    Per object? i can go crazy with max importer, by ticking up the mesh resolution more, i can get a good mesh smooth this a 5 ticks in max importer, normally i use 1 tick. That's a good news.

    First milestone here, I'm using gmax to export, since the fsdk plugin in max9 (mine is 64bit) is a mess. So, i must export each part(fuselage, inner wings, wings, etc), in 3ds to be read in gmax. Note, i'm testing it without snapping every parts, only to test polycount issues. While exporting...

    Yes i wan't it, but my work still far from finish, those manuals would help in coding process, and i'm depend from the fsdk tut's in coding . That's p-61B's layout, from my reading the F15 conversion took from P61C type layout and it has a different shape what went wrong with your widow? i see a...

    Nope, it won't work in gmax exporter. My mistake, i should not combine those complex vc's object with exterior model:idea:. I'll try another method. Oh, FYI here's my source about using inventor for low poly's: and https://bitbarrelmedia.wordpress.com/2015/10/29/31/

    I'm no good judging how polycount works in sim, and how max turn a quads into bunch of triangles(some articles explain this). Now without flaps, elevator, trims, knobs, switces and texture, is this a redline or green? note: i'm using 1 tick of the max's mesh resolution importer, normal is 0, but...

    This came from the development section of the site: F-15/RF-61C In mid-1945, the surviving XP-61E was modified into an unarmed photographic reconnaissance aircraft. All the guns were removed, and a new nose was fitted, capable of holding an assortment of aerial cameras. The aircraft...

    Yeah, lots of my references are from scale models, rc's. P-61's are equipped with (the very first?) spoiler, history tells this bird inovate the air brake, also first american ejection seat was launch from p-61. F-15 reporter doesn't use the spoilers (fighter brake) anymore for this bird are...

    Surfing around in internet, found bunch of info about p-61 black widow(especially with the MAAM's site), but my model is f-15 reporter, problem is, there is no info about detailed cockpit of this bird. So, i use many of the p-61's cockpit layout altough these birds are different in their roles...

    The I am working on thread

    Thank you Ronald, two major questions answered here; f15rep was not equipped with fighter brakes(spoiler) and as my guess that is a slide bubble canopy, not side hinges. I found this http://www.mbi.wz.cz/nab_2/8/ramecnab.htm the main instrument layouts are different with p61's also the casing...

So, next time maybe i'll create my own thread, but a couple pic will tell you my progress so far. Also, this aircraft is hard to...
