pryoski Posted March 9, 2013 Report Posted March 9, 2013 Great stuff ... how are you going to tackle all the systems programming? Quote
Airbus_Captain Posted March 9, 2013 Author Report Posted March 9, 2013 Thank you i will probably learn it or if there is any keen programers your welcome to join in just reply in this convo Quote
pryoski Posted March 9, 2013 Report Posted March 9, 2013 I'm afraid "Hello World" is about the limits of my programming ability in C ..lol. Quote
Michael_Chang Posted March 29, 2013 Report Posted March 29, 2013 OKAY! I HAVE COME TO OFFER SOME INSIGHT I know it's really late, but hey, if you need a bit of extra, this stuff should be great, especially for gears 1: the A320 family is extremely complex, firstly, good luck 2. I have found, that the best way to build an aircraft is using photos, NOT blueprints. What I did for my Fokker 100, was I made a cylinder in planemaker, the length of the actual jet, then used that as a scaler to help me match background photos of the actual jet to build over top of 3. DO NOT USE BLUEPRINTS. Blue prints are extremely inaccurate and never give a proper view of the aircraft, use ONLY PHOTOS AND DIAGRAMS THAT YOU CAN CONFIRM USING PICTURES. 4. I will make myself available for information and tips, I use blender to build my aircrafts, but a lot of the same principles should apply to animation. 5. I don't know shit about plugins, outside of very basic SASL. Sorry Here are some images that I would use to build the planehttp://cdn-www.airliners.net/aviation-photos/photos/6/5/5/1475556.jpghttp://photos.plane-mad.com/9/large/9208.jpg <- this one is especially good for wingbox work, along with gear scaling, since it's almost a perfectly forward shothttp://images3.jetphotos.net/img/1/8/5/3/12687_1281717358.jpghttp://cdn-www.airliners.net/aviation-photos/photos/3/1/4/1120413.jpghttp://cdn-www.airliners.net/aviation-photos/photos/8/7/0/0734078.jpghttp://www.h2fc-fair.com/hm12/images/highlights/dlr01.jpghttp://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/38/Tragfl%C3%A4che_(Airbus_A320).jpg <- this one's a good one to study in order to figure out how the flaps move, and where they stop Hope these help Good luck!~Michael Chang~ 2 Quote
Michael_Chang Posted March 30, 2013 Report Posted March 30, 2013 oh, and on another note, if you'd like, i can talk to my friend for help, her dad is an A320 pilot for Air Canada, and i'm quite sure he can grab a few close up photos for you Quote
Liner45 Posted August 26, 2013 Report Posted August 26, 2013 Btw does anyone know how to add animation like jrollon how he gets his doors to open.Thanksyou have to place the manipulators on it. to make the animation download this http://www.blender.org/ Quote

Benedikt S. Posted September 7, 2013 Report Posted September 7, 2013 Nah, i don't think so, it's too complex. Quote

Flying_pig Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 2. I have found, that the best way to build an aircraft is using photos, NOT blueprints. What I did for my Fokker 100, was I made a cylinder in planemaker, the length of the actual jet, then used that as a scaler to help me match background photos of the actual jet to build over top ofthis is just my opinion but sometimes blueprints can be helpful but ONLY when the object you are making will mainly be modeled in top down view like a elevator or wing for example as that will help you get the shape down better otherwise i agree never just use blueprints Quote
Flying_pig Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 (edited) Renlamp if you decide to do the cockpit first here is a 5MP reference photo i found today when doing a google search as i was bored at the timeEdit forget link, derphttp://airandspace.si.edu/webimages/highres/WEB10778-2007h.jpg Edited September 8, 2013 by mj12345 Quote
Jordan P. Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 Okay, i haven't heard from him in a while so i really don't know what is going on MJ Quote
