Any Ideas on Airial Refeuling? I'm stumped!

[Akula.]

The other day i created a fictional supersonic tanker with FSDS V2, complete with booms and everything. Then icame to the problem that even if you can line up your plane with the tanker, it doesnt do anything. you dont get any fuel. i knew it wasnt going to work when i made the tanker, but now i think there may be some hope. if anyone has any ideas on how to do this, please post. if i get this working i will upload it to Simviation.com so that you all can enjoy it.
thanks in advance, Akula

i was pondering on this too.

i had the idea that you could make a low poly AI aircraft, only with the new gmax fs9 sdk tag it to be a refueling point. then animate with tick18 to fly about the sky.

odd idea but i might give it a try.

dano.

I have FSDS V2, not GMAX, but i think i know what you mean. I'll try it.

Haven't even looked at the picture yet, but based on the link and file name, I'm gonna guess Lock-On: Modern Air Combat.  lol

(FYI...a very system intensive game...I'd try the demo before you buy it, and also read some of the comments on other boards here at SimV.)

Cool. I am so getting that game, the graphics look ace! I think i saw it once on Amazon.com,  dunno. Dude!
