TBD for P3D

[crashaz]

Well I have been hankering for an FS TBD for forever.... and I'm not the kind of guy to keep annoying developers by yelling my choice in every thread. I realize that it would probably not make a big seller.


So I bought a mesh I liked and started putting together the animation. Don't want to in any way infer I am some kind of 3D master... but I realllllly wanted the TBD. Most of you know I am better than average with bending polys for hulls... but that wing to fuselage fit was killing me. So I will get started with the VC next. Fun project and learning tons.

Looks good, Crash.
In my experience there is a steep learning curve in 3d modeling if you stay with it and bite through the road blocks that evolve here and there. I'm not a 3d guru myself, but I can design any object with animations (if necessary) for my scenery design now.

I think modeling an aircraft and complete it with animations, gauges and all those animations is really a class for itself and quite demanding. I still have my F4U birdcage project on the backburner, but I wanted to wait until I get proficient enough with the mesh and texturing work.

Cheers,
Mark
