Hi Melchior,
I had tried getting the ufo from cvs last month, had trouble, and didn't have
time to dive in...
From the ufo_20060710.zip dated 2006-Jul-11 25134 bytes:

Hi Durk,
Thanks for the technical tip.
I should rename my shadows as Umbra(s) ;D
And probably recalculate the % decrease in width. Sounds like a fun math
problem. :)

Hi M,
Well yes, you're right. The outside edge of the shadow should get larger,
albeit fractionally.
But what I was attempting to replicate was the light that refracts around the
object makes the shadow Appear smaller, like you also said.
The alternative I guess, would be to make the transparent

Err ... but they don't in real life. They just *look* smaller
when they are farther away, just like in FlightGear already.

Thank you both Melchior and Stewart for the link!
Just downloading, the interior stuff looks really nice on the screenshots!

Oh no, No cockpit! :)
Just the VTOL or hover capabilities might be useful.

It's not really "my" UFO, although
After some research into this, I understand how my models cannot be GPL due to
Paramount/Viacom rights regarding their copyrighted material.
So I partially take back my wish to replace the ufo. At least the Greys from
the Roswell saucer don't have lawyers. ;)
But my models are still available.
Of course it should not be included in the package.
Legal 101 :-)

Your suggestion of sub-orbital flight last month got me thinking:

mountain range) where I fl
To everybody who is interested in ufo alternatives,
the runabout and both shuttles are now out of development, and have undergone
substantial improvements.

Actually creating a cloaking device isn't that difficult,

I'm personally hoping a shuttlecraft will replace the ufo. Light and
maneuverable, excellent for flying close to the ground, up mountain canyons.
But you probably guessed that already. ;)
Perhaps the Klingon Bird of Prey is small enough to fly near the ground.
If it doesn't have too many vertice

Hi Ampere and Melchior and everybody who downloaded the shuttlecraft models,

Many thanks to those who answered the questions, it was helpful.

Hi,
Problem with orbital flight in FlightGear, is the scenery cache gets bogged
down fast enough as it is.
I believe I saw a comment about that, perhaps in the last month, that the tile
cache doesn't get deleted properly.
Of course, not a problem for normal aircraft, or "short" flights.
The dan
I think the models look great!!
