Re: Blender or 3DS Max?

I haven't got that far yet! I am in the fortunate position that my partner in crime is part of a Dev team and writes Kia and c++ and I have a good relationship with some of the third party teams. My plans for development are:

Add static aircraft

Re: Blender or 3DS Max?

Dave, you are absolutely correct, DCS does not support Blender but I can model in blender as I find it easier to use then convert to 3DS to UV unwrap and apply textures. The real difficulty of adding aircraft to DCS is flight modelling as a new flight model has to be written in .lua and then ...

This time I spent very little time on the apron with the engines running and used the booster engine and water meth on.

Firstly even with auto throttle and autopilot off the throttles will not stick at 100% but instead keep returning to around 70-80% even on takeoff which is making the takeoff roll very long. In flight due to the ...
