ok ender
1 the sh3 is near completed it is in gmax just have to finish off the cockpit area as was not happy with the version in the screen shot's
2 the sh3 around for fs9 are for 2002 and dont show the rotor blades moving . so no good there the s61's are to bigg and not the right type al tho saying that they are good models
3 the back ground is from fs9 just dropped it in for screen shot's thats all
4 with the sh3 there will be 2 versions of them one is the number 66 and the other will be number 60 from the uss hornet those 2 sh3 were the main recovery heil's for the apollo era and are in most pictures you see them in all tho number 66 did crash in the 70's i belive that the crew did all get out and the sh3 was lost to the deep 6
5 i have been toying with the idea of the cm being a aircraft but would not have engine or wings but would be able to float if the contact points were correct
but how would you place it in postion ?
going that route
only way is to be a scenery object really
can you animate a scenery object???
would think that you would lose it once on the water
with that route???
say ie you sh3 is on the carrier thats on the water
and stays there?
so you should be able to make the cm stay on the water
7 sh3 are woking animtions at present all rotor's are turning ,which door opening, landing gear retracting ,swimmer is lowering, not sure if you can animate him any further
ie mean animate him so he swim's from rescue harness to lift raft with fs9?
think that part might not be poss??
if i can animate a scenery file then i can animte the cm with chutes opening at a high alt to spalsh down just depends on how fs9 runs the sceny and how bigg the scene limit's are?
with the 2 version of the sh3 i might do them as a working pair so you can see the other one from main cabin window or cockpit window depending on the view you take
have an old download of 2 hornets with each other but they are for ai aircraft mainly
when finished with cockpit area will post screnny for you to look at
or you can contact me via email addy from the site as your able to look mine up
can send test file to you to advise on
ed
ps hope that hepled with whats up
