Helicopter Help!!!

Postby Adam Preece » Wed Jul 02, 2003 1:37 pm

Hi,

Can anyone help me with helicopter design in GMax? The usual labels for undercarriage don't work and what shall I call the rotor?

Thanks

FS2002 doesn't like retractable gear helicopters.  You have to pause, retract the gears, then continue...

the usual gear tags work ...  don't forget the "skid" class contact.point for the aircraft.cfg file (check the Makemdl SDK)

Also your rotor is just a prop0_still, _slow, _blurred ...
