• 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.

Droppable objects - realistic performance?

Hi all,

I am trying to drop a bomb from an FSX aircraft, which I have successfully managed to do, by creating my own MDL within the framework of existing droppable objects.

However, if I make it of category "SimpleObject", when it drops out of the aircraft, it immediately starts to fall behind the aircraft, as if the bomb had a lot of drag ... what I want is for the bomb to fall away vertically beneath the aircraft (which is what a heavy bomb would really do). I have looked at the available missile objects (which are "GroundVehicle" category!) and they shoot forwards when dropped (as you would expect for a missile).

I've tried fiddling with the parameters, but can't get either type of object to simply fall straight down. Has anyone cracked how to do this?

Thanks,


Iain.
