Ive got the basics.

Postby atotti2000 » Tue Apr 20, 2004 1:29 pm

I dont have the basics to create models of my own :-[, but i do have the basic model of my project. ;D

its currently a twin prop 6seater with gears and working everythings...but. ::)

i still need the help of an experienced designer...its not even a full job so if you have a few nights free and fancy a go... contact me here or email me at atotti2000@hotmail.com

The job in hand is to replace the rear part of the fuselage with a new 1 which includes a Jet engine. This makes the plane a whole lot faster and also makes it stable to land as it still has propellers.
The other jobs on it are mainly facial and to change the shape of some of the body.

could anyone help??  ???

thanks

But the problem you'll have is that FS does not support a mix of engines - so you'll have to "fake" the effect... you can still have propellers turning, but you'll have either three jet engines, or three turboprop engines....

can you make one turbo prop faster than the others???
this could make it easier to fake!! The last engine could be made more powerful.
for example...you could give a 'Jet' sound to this last engine...with jet effects!!
is this possible?

thanks

In FS, you specify the type and size of the engine, then you specify how many.

There is no way to my knowledge to specify different engines or sizes on one aircraft.

well if not...is there a way to set parameters so that the engines do not work on full power even at full throttle until you press another button (EG, like the control for an afterburner.)...??? This could create the effect im looking for?  8)

thanks
