hairyspin replied to a thread Adobe after your money - again in Photography

I just got a new Pentax dslr and found to my delight that Photoshop CS2 - which I still use constantly - reads .DNG files straight off the camera. Why upgrade?? :isadizzy:duh btw, the P3D developer's subscription isn't the only way of building for P3D: $200 gets you a permanent licence and the sdk is a free download.

It could be said the US is out of step, but it doesn't help that MS is inconsistent: aircraft.cfg uses feet while the .xdp uses metres. Just one of the things that keeps modders on their toes. :isadizzy:

hairyspin replied to a thread Flight Sim Seating Arrangements ? in FSX General Discussion

If you're buying in the UK (hello old chap, from another in Blighty :wavey:) then go for an 8-hour rated chair iirc. Just keep the kids - or grandkids as applicable - off it. Mine played with the height adjustment so much it won't stay at the height I prefer any more. But it is comfortable! If you're sitting in it longer than that at a stretch then I don't want to clean the crumbs from your keyboard...

hairyspin replied to a thread Animation (Gmax) Tutorials? in Aircraft Design & Animation

Once an object is mapped, it's mapped until you re-map or edit the mapping via Unwrap UVW. Reset Xform won't affect that at all. Where I had a problem was objects I applied a mapping of equal length and breadth to but it showed as oblong. (yes, I had clicked View Align...) Played merry hell with the paint kit! Something like this:- Once a Reset XForm had been applied a square mapping was square, no arguments.

hairyspin replied to a thread Animation (Gmax) Tutorials? in Aircraft Design & Animation

Reset XForm condenses all your scale, rotation and other operations on an object, sets scale on the object to 1 and aligns the object's pivot to the Gmax world. If you like, it lets Gmax get an accurate handle on the object's size etc after we've been knocking it into the shape we want. Collapse the stack and you've got editable mesh or poly ready for animating or mapping. Without this you can get really odd mapping problems, even if you use Reset Scale or Reset Transform buttons on the Command Panel (Hierarchy tab). It's also possible for Gmax to 'lose track' of the object's shape while we're altering it to the extent that a rotation animation on a flap will actually distort the object, not rotate it. I've had both these problems happen and only Reset XForm got the thing back under control. Just do it before animating or linking other objects to it in a hierarchy.

Hey all good Heinzy. Nope think you have to re download zips. Do your thing and keep an eye out for mission night next weekend. Usually takes a try or two before success. We are all used to it so give it another go and we will sort it. Have you created a log in at www.sim-outhouse.net? If not do so. You can then post there as well BTW thanks for the input on the video. Always appreciated

How can one modify the flaps adjustment on a A/C? When you hit the flap button on the BoB_Spit_54 they open 100% on other planes this is done by increments.

hairyspin replied to a thread Animation (Gmax) Tutorials? in Aircraft Design & Animation

I don't understand the problem Keith, I've never had trouble animating using Local RCS and then exporting to FS. The apparent headache is to align an object's pivot accurately so the animation works accurately, but in fact Gmax already has the tools to do that and it's pretty easy to get right using Helper objects, especially Tape objects. Feel free to ask if you want to know more.

Static pitch (and static height) are to set the height and attitude of the model when it first appears in the sim: after that simulated gravity takes over and the contact points determine where it settles. Get these wrong and you may start with this:- which may quickly turn into this:-

hairyspin replied to a thread Animation (Gmax) Tutorials? in Aircraft Design & Animation

Since you're animating first and mapping later, before animating an object apply a Reset XForm to each object in turn and then collapse the stack for each. This will save headaches when you come to mapping. Reset XForm is on the Tools tab of the command panel to the right of the viewports in gmax.
