Our old UIUC models did bounce, etc because the gear parameters were not reasonable. Updates that include reasonable gear parameters are on the uiuc web site. I have put my latest model of the beech99 aircraft here: http://amber.aae.uiuc.edu/~m-selig/tmp/ Pick the beech99.tar file. Here's a list of the contents (using the Beech99 3D model on Wolfram's site): [340] m-selig@qtee:/home/m-seligSim/work/fgfsbase-0.7.9/ Aircraft> tar -cvf beech99.tar beech99 beech99-v1-uiuc-set.xml UIUC/beech99-v1 beech99/ beech99/Sounds/ beech99/Sounds/uiuc/ beech99/Sounds/uiuc/beech99-sound.xml beech99/Models/ beech99/Models/uiuc/ beech99/Models/uiuc/beech99/ beech99/Models/uiuc/beech99/beech99.ac beech99/Models/uiuc/beech99/beech99.air beech99/Models/uiuc/beech99/beech99.loc beech99/Models/uiuc/beech99/beech99.ppeloc beech99/Models/uiuc/beech99/pspbrwse.jbf beech99/Models/uiuc/beech99/beech_990.rgb beech99/Models/uiuc/beech99/beech_991.rgb beech99/Models/uiuc/beech99/beech_992.rgb beech99/Models/uiuc/beech99/beech_993.rgb beech99/Models/uiuc/beech99/beech_994.rgb beech99/Models/uiuc/beech99/beech_995.rgb beech99/Models/uiuc/beech99/beech_996.rgb beech99/Models/uiuc/beech99/beech_997.rgb beech99/Models/uiuc/beech99/beech_998.rgb beech99/Models/uiuc/beech99/beech_999.rgb beech99/Models/uiuc/beech99/beech99-model.xml beech99-v1-uiuc-set.xml UIUC/beech99-v1/ UIUC/beech99-v1/aircraft.dat It runs w/ fgfs --aircraft=beech99-v1-uiuc When I start up I see this: http://amber.aae.uiuc.edu/~m-selig/tmp/beech.gif Regards, Michael >-- >Curtis Olson IVLab / HumanFIRST Program FlightGear Project >Twin Cities [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Minnesota http://www.menet.umn.edu/~curt http://www.flightgear.org > >_______________________________________________ >Flightgear-devel mailing list >[EMAIL PROTECTED] >http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel ************************************************** Prof. Michael S.
