A few questions

Postby tag86 » Sat Jul 19, 2003 12:52 am

1.
Can I use my textures from the version 1 meljet 777 on the version 2 plane and just copy the interior textures?
2.
How do I change the mdl file on the Aerodesigns A340 in order to get a different interior layout?
3.
Has anyone else experienced FS crashing when loading the Aerodesigns A340 or has it given them very low frame rates?
4.
How has Melvin Rafi made such an excellent plane without it really affecting frame rates?

1.  More than likely...

2.  Not possible.  The MDL files are composed by gMax, therefore you need the origianl .GMAX in order to change a MDL file.

3.  Dunno...

4.  I haven't noticed this...my FPS dropped to 0 with it this morning. :(

Sorry about not being clear on question 2 but I mananged to work it out anyway

The plane came with 4 mdl files, each one had a different virtual cabin seating arangement and I just needed to know how to change the model line in the aircraft.cfg file.
The lines that are normally at the start of the file were at the very end and I didn't see them.  
eg.
Name
sound
model ...etc

This would be defined in Model.cfg (in the Model folder).

[models]
normal= Exact file prefix of the MDL file
