WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's very impressive!

FSX or 2004?

VC planned?

Default avionics or systems sim?


Looking forward to more!  ;)

For your first model, it's looking great. I use gmax. (Have the 3Ds demo currently installed, too) I haven't worked with 3Ds much. Never had much success. Lets face it. GMax is much simpler. But 3Ds can do much more. I wish you luck on the project, and I will help you out anyway I can.

Hi Alex , thank you for the nice comment and advice. I will probably only try a fsx model first and to be honest am quite scared of the xporting bit ... I have no idea what to do yet and even the texture or uv mapping sounds difficult ... Also my model has a few naked edges so am doing a cleanup and prob a rebuilt as I am already on 40 000 polys on the exterior alone ... Also I am using rhino 3d and then exporting it to 3ds max 9 ... Will look at your site and keep in touch..     Thanks again
Ethan
