• 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.

Thanks for the tips! :) No it's not, but i Have the max9 demo/trail i will se if i find it there. I know the basics in max, i made a complete 737-500 fuselage in max 9 demo some years ago. but there is still lot to learn.

Hi Chris!
Project is still alive, but going slowly at the moment. I have so much stuff to do in my private life nowadays, (painting my house, building garage etc) o_O

Glad to hear you're still working on the project! :) Thanks for the update.
 
No problem!
Working on the main landinggear at the moment, making details like breakelines etc

I've been bored lately, Then i found the Dreamwings Dash 8 Q400 source file on my external HD and then started playing a little with it. (I received it from them a long time ago, I was going to make a fsx version of that dash.)
What i have done so far, given the dash a nose job and adjusted the fuselage cross section.

Another update on the dw Q400, but i will stop editing/improving stuff on the model for now, just animate and complete this thing :D ehmmm i have to continue om my own dash ;)
And i have got permission to realease this bird :)

What i've done with it : New fuselage cross section, more realistic nose and cockpit windows, adjusted the wing shape a bit. animated the nosegear. Whats left? some texture tweaking and animations.

Hi Marc, sorry late reply!
Project is now restarted after some downtime, Did some work on the DW Q400 aswell.
if there is someone out there with good photoshop knowledge and having very little to do at the moment, then i have the perfect job for you :D !
Edit a bit of dw's original fuselage texture to fit the new fuselage, same with wing texture. If anybody is interested then this bird may be finished soon.
Unfortunately, I have too much to do so i do not get the time to edit myself.

I do also work on the Baby dash, right now i work on different "details" around the model etc, and will start on the cabin for the exterior model.

I donated a pair of wings from my own dash 8 100 and midified them to Q400 wings, because it was so much work to edit dw original wings, and i wasn't happy with the result. And the engines are donated from a old Q400 project i have abonded.

Woaw :O this is amaing :) can't wait to see more :)
Unfortunately, I have no talent about AirCraft developpement :/
 
Yes there will be a new paintkit for the wings and fuselage, the old one will not work 100% with the updated model, unless you tweak it like i have done with this SAS livery.
