Gerli Posted August 2, 2015 Author Posted August 2, 2015 Well, landing in the macross hangars is a challenge, also you can land on the Prometheus. There would be a lot of Helipads around the city to land and of course you can explore the island, I'm planning to add some Easter eggs for the people to find. When I learn how to code AI aircraft you can fly in formation with the VF's (Blue Angels, yeah) or escort a transport (Kitchen mama?) around the island. Quote
Gerli Posted August 26, 2015 Author Posted August 26, 2015 Working on the starboard hangar, this is gonna be the launch system I'm don't know if i can use some kind of conditional animation to raise the blast shield when the airplane is on the right opistion, I think with the FS9 tools can be done. I need to research more. This hangar is gonna be twice as big as the portside one so I can put more VF's and some Destroids Quote
Galaxy_Stranger Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 Hot. Interesting paint job. Quote
Galaxy_Stranger Posted September 15, 2015 Posted September 15, 2015 Hey, what's the process to do what you're doing? What are you using to create the models and how do you get them into the game? Quote
Gerli Posted September 16, 2015 Author Posted September 16, 2015 Make a 3D model with Gmax Export to MDL format Create a Scenery Library with that object Put the object in FlightSimulator Those are the basic steps. Quote
Galaxy_Stranger Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 Interesting - is that the same model format as Quake's .mdl? Or is that just a coincidence? Quote
Galaxy_Stranger Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 WOW, that's super interesting... Quote
Gerli Posted October 28, 2015 Author Posted October 28, 2015 (edited) I made one of the models fly... or something. Still a lot of work to do but I'm a little closer to have actual AI aircraft flying around the island Edited October 28, 2015 by Gerli Quote
Galaxy_Stranger Posted October 28, 2015 Posted October 28, 2015 I cannot achieve completion without SOUND!!!!!! Quote
Gerli Posted October 28, 2015 Author Posted October 28, 2015 And sorry for the black video at the end Quote
Aurel Tristen Posted October 28, 2015 Posted October 28, 2015 Are you just doing the VF-1 flight model so AI can fly? I'd donate my cockpit for a player flyable version, if that would do any good.Please keep good backups. I really wish I still had my YF-19 for FSX. That thing was a death machine. You could pull 50 Gs, and break the sound barrier going vertical just off the end of the runway. Quote
Gerli Posted October 29, 2015 Author Posted October 29, 2015 I'm using Google Drive for the Backups And about the cockpit... sure! Eventually I need to learn a lot about aircrafts, configurations and effects. Quote
Galaxy_Stranger Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 It's too bad you can't jump out of the cockpit and walk around. Quote
Gerli Posted October 29, 2015 Author Posted October 29, 2015 It's too bad you can't jump out of the cockpit and walk around. Only in Arma 2 (Or wait for the Star Citizen Mods) Quote
Gerli Posted October 30, 2015 Author Posted October 30, 2015 I cannot achieve completion without SOUND!!!!!! Fixed (sorta) Quote
Galaxy_Stranger Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!! Quote
Galaxy_Stranger Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 HAH - found this screwing around on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVtaZCnSZXs Quote
Gerli Posted November 9, 2015 Author Posted November 9, 2015 One of the guys here made the YF-19 too I'm working in the Cat's Eye now. Quote
Galaxy_Stranger Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 Awesome - did you get Orthographics for that? Quote
Gerli Posted November 10, 2015 Author Posted November 10, 2015 Nope, I'm using some plastic models for reference but didn't find top or botton views (Only front and side schematics) Quote
logan_4600 Posted November 12, 2015 Posted November 12, 2015 Nope, I'm using some plastic models for reference but didn't find top or botton views (Only front and side schematics) Ameo! Tenés la macross enciclopedia de Mr. March! tenés BOCHA de fotos y eschematics de todos los angulos ahi! Ts: My friend! Check out Mr. March´s Macross Mecha Manual! Quote
Galaxy_Stranger Posted November 12, 2015 Posted November 12, 2015 It looks like that's exactly where he got his reference from. Man, this makes me want to play around freestyle and come up with different designs. Quote
logan_4600 Posted November 12, 2015 Posted November 12, 2015 Is it me? or everyone in here, in one way o another knows something about programming and/or cg/3d, etc. ? Quote
Gerli Posted November 12, 2015 Author Posted November 12, 2015 Because the lack of Macross make us cretive people (?) Quote
logan_4600 Posted November 12, 2015 Posted November 12, 2015 Hahaah that's SO true! ( goshhh how i enjoyed Frontier !!! ) You know, i think i'll start a thread about this, so se can help each other and share knowledge! Quote
Gerli Posted November 22, 2015 Author Posted November 22, 2015 This is just a little video from all the models and places on the island. Still a lot of work to do but this is a general idea about what I'm looking with this project. Quote
