The data CVS tree has a Aircraft/Instruments-3d
subdirectory with files/directories for some
3-dimensional instruments - is this what you mean?
I was wondering about adding things like yokes,
pedals, throttles to it, but haven't got around to it
yet. Certainly it would make life easier when creating
a cockpit to just define their location rather than
placing them directly into the model in AC3D.
Does anyone know what the performance hit of using a
3D instrument (say the ASI) rather than the standard
2-D one is? From a quick look, most of the instruments
work by simply shifting the needle texture slightly
forward from the back-face. I have been considering
using the 3-D instruments for my changes to the C182,
but backed off in case the performance hit was
unacceptable.
