[Flightgear-devel] Introduction 2 / Citation Bravo

2008-03-29 Thread loph
Hello,

hopefully this is the right mailinglist to post about aircraft-modelling, too, 
since it seems, I've 
sent my first mail to the wrong mailinglist.

I'll just re-post it here:

*

Hello,

I'm quite new to Flightgear, Flightsimulation in general and open source. 
But as it seems, I'm having a lot of fun with it.

Since I'm enjoying flying the Citation Bravo most and I do have some 
knowledge of Blender, I started editing the Aircraft a bit (minor changes  
like: adding labels to some instruments, Fixing some ugly body-dents, etc).

I could very well imagine to get myself more involved into developing that 
plane, but I'm not sure what things are taken care of by others and how the 
coordination of the work is done. I think especially the cockpit, and most of 
all the primus-1000, needs some work.

But now a actual modelling question:
While editing, I faced a rather stange problem. After exporting the .blend 
file to .ac and loading the Model in Flightgear, the Cabindoor-Window gets 
blind, meaning the transparency is lost. There's still the chrome-animation 
applied 
to it and the window mesh shares the same material as the other, still 
transparent, windows, but you can't look through.

That problem even occurs when I import the original Mesh into Blender and 
export it again without making any changes. I'm using Blender 2.43.


Regards,
Jo

Hi Jo,
The Bravo is in development stage , and probably will be for a while 
. If you read the  set files of aircraft you will see the authors names 
there.

What version are you using , PLIB or OSG ?Did you get the Bravo from 
CVS ?
I,ve made some changes to the P1000 system here , moving it into the 
Bravo folder instead of Instruments-3d , and yes , it needs a ton of 
work , but the present issue with it is coming up with a better text 
drawing routine , which I haven't managed yet ...
I'm not sure what to suggest , I occasionally get the transparency 
problem , but more often than not , it seems to be caused by animation 
object grouping ...
Do you have any pictures of the panel changes ?
Cheers,
Syd

Hi Ron,

although this ship is your nice little present to Curtis I misused it
already to practise some fun helicopter-shiplandings.

http://home.arcor.de/vollnhals-bremen/Sette/OESette.jpg

If you GPL this model it would be a nice basic ship for several
modifications, ie. some other painting and adding a landing platform
there where the BO105 has landed - I would do this over the next week if
you agree.

Thank you for this nice model as there aren't so many usable ship-models
for FG until now.

Hi Georg,

Yes, I am releasing this model ( Sette3.ac, funnels.png and hull.png )
under the GPL.  And the link has just been updated with the latest wip
changes http://www.jentronics.com/fgfs/os_models.tgz

I believe the deck textures (bridge.png and the *_deck.pngs) came from a
public domain source but am not 100% sure... Curt?  

Its funny, I just spent the last hour changing up the aft deck spaces.
After a few hours studing photos and the deck plans, I just made the
deck you landed on about a meter lower.

Your welcome to do some repaints, none of the vertical walls have
texture mappings yet.  I think I have all the windows and doors cut out.
(If you want to animate the doors, I set the object center to the
hinge position) so it could be time to map them.

I am trying to decide whether to punch holes in the hull and model the
bracing on the bow, or just fake it with textures...

Ron
