I have developed a technique to show tire compression under weight or load.

I sure am, I've had a thought and was interessted in taking this challenge on, I will be welcome to read your instructions for this. Does the wheel actually compress while on taxi or is that just for park, I'm thinking it's a XML file but dunno And thank's for all the work you've done Milton.

Brilliant in its simplicity!!!

Wow milton, thats amazing!

Sweeeeeeeeet!!!

now thats what i call a very good idea !! sweet is the word for that little effect  thanks milton

Brilliant Milton! Now can this be translated to FSDS?

I agree

Brilliant Milton! Now can this be translated to FSDS?

Directly.  There's no "hocus pocus" involved.... just two additional "x_gear_is" and "x_gear_is" parts, linked to the x_gear_nnn compression part.

The two _is and _os parts simply "hide" inside the tire part until about frame 120 and then they are keyframed to maximum lateral expansion at about 180, with "static" bulging at frame 150.

The beauty and brilliance of it is that if you look at it in the modelling program, it looks like a pasted on "sabrina" .... but in FS it looks natural.!!

This "hobby", this site and the people here, never stop amazing me..

Excellent, Mr. Milton!  This is a great idea, and I'm surprised it's so simple . . . although most brilliant ideas are . . .

Amazing stuff there Milton!!!
