That's because it isn't a 747-400, but a 747-200; which makes me think that

Looking a the pictures it looks to me like you are still using two sided
polygons (that's why the ailerons and such are a lot brighter than the
rest, you've got the normals inverted).
To render a model really fast in FlightGear it would be best to use only
one sided polygons

I think it will probably be a good idea to increase the distance that triggers
the poping of waypoints. Right now, the plane practically gets on top of the
way point before switching to the next, which is causing some awfully violent
maneuvers.

The violent maneuvers I was describing occur when the plane is a few

After some thoughts, I think what FlightGear needs the most right now is not
money; rather, it should be publicity. Without publicity, it will be naive
to hope that some kind souls will happened to stumbled upon FlightGear.

I was using multiple textures on the MD11's fuselage at first but then switch
to a single gigantic texture (4096X1024). There is no difference between
them performance wise. However, I would advise you to use one single texture
for the sake of maintance (such as creating a new livery). This
Couple of questions:
- Is this ATC Simulator that you speak of similar to us (being an open source
project, etc.)?
- How did they get your attention at first? May be we can use their methods
to help FlightGear gain some publicity.
- Where do their money come from? If it is from donations,
FlightGear has no trouble displaying the mesh, but things aren't working as
nicely for the texture parts. For example, to get transparency working, I
had to tune the opacity of the entire object to 98%. As a result, you can
see through the aircraft if you look at things closely. Now, I run

Why did I have a feeling that I was going to get that answer? =P
In the short term, I guess I can export those parts that need illumination
into ac format, thus bypassing the whole 3ds

I think this problem occurs with the F16 in 0.9.4 as well when the fuel tanks
are full.

The elevators seem to have no effect at all. On the
I know. It is like the way things are done in 3D Studio. Unfortunately, most
of these features aren't working with 3ds format in FlightGear. I even had a
specular level problem at the very beginning.
As for illumination, it is better done by a mask rather than selecting
material property.
New animation type as in specifying the effects in the XML file? If so, that
is what I was thinking as well.

We can use that... now, but you'll have to set it so that the highest level of
detail of each component only shows up when the camera is less than 1 meter
from it.

Have at it !
How do I reach them?
Note PLib's scenegraph is SSG Simple Scene Graph
Since this model is anything but simple IMO it doesn't
