you mean people actually run x-plane???? ;D

Nice plane... dunno about those Yokes though... but then I don't like any yokes. :

Personally, I think it's good to be seeing so many screenshots of intermediate results, provides a lot of transparency.

...that's why I call it PAIN-maker... people that say blender is non-intuitive and hard to learn need a good dose of PM. ;D

Give yourself a chance Raf.. I can only show you the path, it's up to you to walk it. "Nothing Worth Having Comes Easy" -Theodore Roosevelt (paraphrased)

Go back to your "Rafael Fernandez" account and make something, anything, with your own blood, sweat and tears. Hiding under another name is easy and not worthy of respect. Standing up and wearing the shit you've attracted with your behavior is far more admirable. Yes, you've got some work to do to restore your reputation but it's not beyond repair. If you want to play pull-aparts with other peoples stuff that's fine too, just make sure you label it clearly, like you have above. (Though, personally, I'd tag the image in BOLD with something like: "Learning to texture, FUSE IS XPFW WORK.", not a side note of "PS") Attribution is something you're going to learn a lot about in the next few years as you progress through high school and if you're lucky, college. We all stand on the shoulders of giants, we owe a lot to those that have walked before us, just remember to give credit where it's due. Respect is earned, not given. ...maybe this will help: http://www.darkscarab.com/tutorials/blender/car001.php It could be worse:

Rafael... This is really boring.. Pack your bags and FUCK OFF.

...and so it is.

..I made him a special group, if anyone can think of a better group name let me know.

His account has been left active so that he can argue his case if he so chooses.

He's on his last chance. We all want this place to be open and friendly but I have to draw the line somewhere.

Borrowing work without any Atrribution of Credit and statement of intention IS WRONG and WILL NOT be tolerated. One more stupid issue, Rafael, and you're gone. You dissapoint me. Don't bother PMing me this time, you muddy your own name. This post will make no difference.

25-30 FPS is a MYTH. It's based on bullshit. TV runs interlaced, giving you 30 full frames of data but 50-60 half frames of data. Movie film has exposure and motion blur to help smooth things over. OpenGL renders CRISP harsh shapes. You NEED 60+fps. </rant>

And have it end up all over torrent and pirate sites like every other piece of X-P payware? ??? No thanks..

Topic split (See Blender Image Processing Script), you guys want me to clean this thread up or leave the posts for transparency?

Running off a USB drive shouldn't make any significant difference once the sim is loaded up, it may increase load times very slightly but it definitely shouldn't have the effect on frame rates that you're describing.

It's currently 8am Saturday in Spain, I'd say you'll get your download link in an hour or two tops. The Javelin is not connected to an automated download system.

Thanks for investigating the FF stuff guys... I only have the rumble packs in my XBox pads to test with. *laughs* ..one less thing to think about.

As far as I know it uses the default aircraft and default airport for a given version run. The rest of the settings are controlled by laminar and basically range from very low graphics options to very high graphics options. As already stated, the down side of this is that plugins are left enabled which can skew the results.

Feel free to read up on the whole thread Nick.

Hey Wade... I'm looking at solutions to this general problem. A similar issue exists when porting profile data from one OS to the other, if I plug my xbox controller into my Mac I'll get buttons 1-20, if I plug the same controller into Windows I get buttons 80-100... or whatever. So, I'm looking at ways to discover/set the lowest button/axis number and then apply the profile data based on that offset. So basically, you'd have to do a minor little profile calibration instead of redoing the entire config. If you know, and memorize your lowest index buttons and axis it'd only take ~30 seconds. I'd like to avoid talking to the lower level HID/USB API's on a per OS level if I can... though I may end up poking around in them for Force Feedback some day. Another user has filed a feature request for input profiles recently with Austin, if he throws it into b8(unlikely) or 9.40 I'll probably reconsider my priorities with this one... I don't expect him to do it, but he might. Some other stuff has come up besides the above, that means the probable ship date on this one has been pushed back. I'll keep you guys posted if I update anything.

Nice work! I've got way to much on my plate to have looked at this, so thanks for taking the initiative!
