• 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.

Bone Animation

Hi folks,

currently I do a bone animation for a flexible canopy that slides into the
fuselage.

While the setup in 3dsmax looks perfect, in FSX the skinned mesh dont does
the same like in the 3dsmax viewport.

To simplify the work I linked the skinned mesh to a dummy who does the
rotation work of UP and DOWN. After this I correct with keys that the
canopy slides on the correct way (multiple bones).

How I said it. It works fine in MAX. But FSX differs slightly in the way.

What is here the problem?

Greetings
 
Fsx Bones...

...doesnt like Dummies for remote control!!!

I had to do bone for bone arrgggggggggggg.

It can also be, that the key interpolation (ease in ease out) do

a different look iN MAX than in FSX.

My animation had to be very exactly, so there where many intersection

that had to be refined. Its a stony way to heaven :)
 
About Bones management in general

Well bones in general are easy to use , but slidely differs on FS9/FSX when you use it ,because of mesh or 3d data editing error which the bone can not "stick" properly and usually they not go on how you wanna.

My advice is to use a different mesh poly configuration.
