Boeing 747-200 carrying the space shuttle successfully doing a short field landing.

you can find a plugin for AC3D HERE

Bit more of a Standard landing at KOSH

Just out of curiosity when you loaded the plane when it had no livery was it all White? If it was all you have to do is select a diffrent livery when you load a plane since the 767's default is white. To do this simply click on one of the liveries below the preview picture of the plane.

Simple, don't use the plugin. At least that's what I do.

Now that I have gotten the lighting to a point where I like how it looks i went out and fixed the bug on the elevator

Here are some renders of the 3 aircraft that i modeled before i started the B-29 and C-46. I will not be importing any of these into x-plane at this point in time (but I may I import the CL-215 model once the B-29 and C-46 are done. Sorry if this post is extremely long.

Managed to land the x737 on a aircraft carrier

There's a freeware B1900D on the org maybe you could use that flight model instead.

Ok, so i guess i'll have to pay $100 more and get the 680 now what manufacturer should i get it from evga gigabyte etc.

I am thinking about upgrading to one of these cards soon and was wondering which one is better for programs like blender and x-plane

OK minus some minor noise in the background (I have already found the cause this time) i would say that the cockpit night lighting and rendering is about done.

Decided to try landing the default C-130 on an aircraft carrier at night

Actually i can't wait to get the flight model finished and go try some crosswind landings myself(i've succesfully landed the default columbia 400 in a 70kt direct croswwind with heavy turbulence in a severe thunderstorm with 1/2 mile visibility at night before so i'm not expecting much of a challenge)

Made the main landing gear.

Sorry about getting the number of sitches wrong for some reason i thought there were six per quadrant and multiplied that number by 2 (since you said you ahd 2) also i didn't even know there was a plugin for the tpm i just plugged mine and started up x-plane and they just worked and you can configure the switches in the joystick & equipment menu

just was wondering why not use the 12 switches on youre to throttle quadrants instead of the switch panel? i happen to have 4 and have no need for the switch panel also gjalp well youre saving up money if you have an ipad i would highly recommend getting the efis app (it has a built in radio panel and a roll of duct tape makes a great mount for the ipad)Which will probably be the best 20$ you ever spend for a piece of flight sim equipment

Ok first off this question actually is a LOT harder then it sounds basicly i recently got a new case for my modfied lenovo desktop computer and when i was reinstalling everything in the new case i found out that motherboard had no labels to indicate which front panel io connector slot corresponded to what front panel io connector also plugged into it as a single connector (to save time when building the computer in the factory of course) that basicly looked like the thing you can plug you front panel io connectors into and then plug that into the front panel io connector slot on some motherboards execpt you couldn't unplug the connetors unfourtanetly i have had this computer for almost a year know and didn't even know how to install a power supply when i bought it and therefore have lost the manuel to the computer which might of had a key explaining which connectors go where in it the good news is right know i just am using the front panel io panel from the old case the bad news is that i have to touch exposed circuitry when i turn on the computer since one day that will probably backfire on me if i don't get this fixed and don't worry about me not having backups of the b-29 in case this backfires really soon since i have it backed up on four hard drives spread across three computers also one of those drives is a server drive not to mention in the event of a complete and total hard drive failure my lenovo desktop can automaticly retrieve all the lost data without having a backup anyways if you have any possible solutions please tell me

Here are some much improved pictures of the cockpit (today i learned about 2 little things called cubic interpolation and tangent shading) also i am aware of there being to much rayleigh scattering at this point and here's a picture showing why you don't import from sketchup (look in the background) and it also shows why bump mapping is awesome also the noise on the panel in the backround is fixed by doing an approximate render instead of a raytrace it's something weird that happened during conversion that's actually causing it

here is my second project currently i have only modeled the engine part of the wing and a very ruff fuselage obviously the engine cowling needs some work and but at least i have started work anyways here a photo of the engine also i know there are 4 propeller mounts when there are only 3 propellers per engine on a c-46 this is due to where the engine interior came from (it's the interior of the b-29's since they are almost identical)

Judging buy the picture on the website you guys might want to try texture baking the texture of the md-11 for v1.1

So do you guys have any screenshots that you can show us even if they look terrible it would be nice to see how much progress you have made up to this point even if they look terrible (take the first screenshots of the b-29 as a good example)

I wanted something else to model since i wanted a little break from the b-29 and this airport looked like it would be a little bit of fun to model so basicly here is the south end of the field feel free to use it in the final scenery package if you want to KLEP.zip

Ya i guess i somehow copied the nosegear tire twice unfourtanetly they are both grouped together so that could be really hard to fix

Yes, unfourtanetly they are all facing the right way
