I restart the fuselage, I use more polygons and I think it's look good ;).

Next step finish the engine cowlings.

Great work !! keep us posted.

[Milton Shupe]

David, your project is progressing very well. It is a great way to get through the winter months.

Keep us posted here and if you have any questions, maybe we can help.

Great aircraft subject too. :)

[David W.]

Thank you for all your comments ;)

The project is temporarily suspended, due to overload at work with the season end approaching. I'm very busy :( Otherwise after reading about the Ménestrel HN-433 by Lagaffe (French Topic) (http://www.pilote-virtuel.com/viewtopic.php?id=16127), I could identify each step for a smooth running of the project in its continuity. The other day I was doing an export of the tail in order to validate the installation of the SDK. But he could not be complete without the tag animation and validation in FSX.

Yes, that works. And now, you are making the big progress. Have fun!

[David W.]

Finally, I still found time to work on the 3D gauges.

A little bug, any idea why the indicator is inverse on the animation ? Not the good axis on Gmax ?

A French draft on the subject: Draft to create 3D gauge on FSX (French) (http://www.pilote-virtuel.com/viewtopic.php?pid=382513#p382513)

For you, below just the picture about developement and test on FSX, because my english is not good to explain step by step the procedure.

Thank you for your encouragement. And it's a great pleasure to develop on FSX.

A big thank for you, I read many greats tutorial write by you before to start the Jodel. (The Cessna C162 for example)

[David W.]

I add this line on "modeldef.xml" for the fuel indicator

sorry no xml's posted, messes up the forums, ... ickie

[Milton Shupe]

David,

The only thing that comes to my mind is that you may have animated it using the View Coordinate.

Animations require that you use teh Local Coordinate system, at least that is true in gmax/makemdl for FS9.

Check your animation again and be sure to select the Local Coordinate system before animating.

I just add 25% 50% 75% keyframes and it's work ;)

I use the local cordinate system when a create the animation. The screenshot was take after the creation.

Thank you Roger, it's a pleasure to keep up this topic ;)

---------


When I wake up early this morning, I wanted to move, and delete many vertex on the fuselage of the Jodel. Review the couples of rear of the fuselage. Forms were not equated with the real model. Then start for the part inside the fuselage.

http://img638.imageshack.us/img638/9671/previewexteriorjodeldr1.jpg

http://img705.imageshack.us/img705/9671/previewexteriorjodeldr1.jpg

Then after reviewing the fuselage, engine cowling modification to reduce the opening. Also my mesh is rather homogeneous throughout;)

http://img35.imageshack.us/img35/9671/previewexteriorjodeldr1.jpg

[David W.]

I try to create inner fuselage and the prototype of the canopy:

Then, You will receive an email with with an ID and validation number which you must input after clicking on the link as directed. I suggest you use a translation tool on the internet. Just google " translate" and copy the whole email you for translation. Input the ID and Validation number. THEN you can download. The French valiantly hold on to their right to speak French.:salute:

[dandog]

Le modèle extérieur est correct, mais le modèle intérieur est absente. Unless My download was not complete. Viva la Jodel! Please?!.

[David W.]

Thank you Firekitten & dandog to help Roger for registration and download the product ;)

Because it is still a "prototype" and I want to have a return through the forum (hhtp://danslesairs.fr/portal), I am "forced" to use this system. And the second is the language, because now I prefer use "French". Sorry for the other users who prefer use English. :(

I know it's annoying to have to Register Get on the forum to download the "Jodel".



Jodel happens to be still in a prototype phase. It is a little advanced stage of development.

The external model begins to take shape, there is still alot of parts texturing and still many bugs on the UVW Map paint.

For interior model, I'd say it's worse. Some instruments on the panel and that's it!

Interior model:

I know it's pretty frustrating, but on one side I am happy to share the progress of my work.

Several times while browsing this part of the forums I have popped in here. I was one who thought this project had fizzled out, so your posting is a surprise.
It's nice to know you're still plugging along with it.

It looks real nice. :)

[David W.]

Thank you OleBoy

[Milton Shupe]

David,

This is definitely a work of art and a labour of love. It shows grace and beauty and reflects the skills of your hands. Thank you for sharing it with us. :applause:

[David W.]

Yes Milton Shupe, It's always a great pleasure to develop the Jodel. :)

I use Blender to bake normal map texture. I am trying to write a tutorial on the process.
