July 5, 200322 yr I've already merged the two and it is quite easy unlike it was with the ifdg 757 as the 767-300 is the proper model to use with PIC. All you need to do is copy over the contact/scrape points, light coordinates and slat section, setting all slat scalars to zero as to not affect the PIC flight dynamics, doing this will allow for proper slat animation and thats it. By doing the above you will have the ifdg 763 model eye candy with pure PIC flight dynamics.Regards,Van LatendresseYeoDesigns/AFG GroupPanel/FDE Designer
July 5, 200322 yr wow, sounds easier than any other merge :(think you could e-mail it to [email protected] VanAdam
July 5, 200322 yr You could try this one (for use with PIC FDE).I haven't done proper testing yet, the only problem seems to be the wing-flex/gear compression animation (only visible on lading, when the front main gear wheels sink into the ground slightly, before reemerging when the wings 'un-flex').[WEIGHT_AND_BALANCE]reference_datum_position=0.000000,0.000000,0.000000empty_weight_CG_position=0.000000,0.000000,0.000000max_number_of_stations=50station_load.0=0.000000,0.000000,0.000000,0.000000empty_weight=245281.000000empty_weight_roll_MOI=2286000.000000empty_weight_pitch_MOI=7018000.000000empty_weight_yaw_MOI=8897000.000000empty_weight_coupled_MOI=1300.000000max_gross_weight=

July 5, 200322 yr The ifdg contact points are a bit iffy. I prefer the posky contact point info, which I have used with a few minor adjustments. As far as the rest goes, it's already present in the PIC aircraft cfg, so really one would only need to do what I stated on my previous post and playing around a bit with the contact points would be an option. I find my ifdg model handles identical to my posky model in every way.Regards,Van LatendresseYeoDesigns/AFG GroupPanel/FDE Designer
July 5, 200322 yr Just make sure you adjust the airplane geometry for correct display of the built-in light.Cheers,Gosta.http://hifi.avsim.net/activesky/images/wxrebeta.jpg
July 5, 200322 yr Should one use the PIC air file? Or is the ifdg one suitable?Stevehttp://vatsim.pilotmedia.fi/statusindicato...tor=OD1&a=a.jpg2.53Ghz P4 | 512 MB SDRAM | Geforce 4 MX400 64MB | 80GB HDD | WinXP Pro | DX9
July 5, 200322 yr Unless IFDG have incorporated all custom PIC parameters (unlikely, as it would result in the plane not working with any other FS2000/2002 panel), it is advisable to use the PIC FDE. Combine it with the .cfg posted above, and it should be working ok for now.Cheers,Gosta.http://hifi.avsim.net/activesky/images/wxrebeta.jpg
July 5, 200322 yr To do the combination do we just copy pieces listed above into the idfg aircraft.cfg. What other changes do we need to make.I'm not 100% sure how to do this?RegardsRussell Jourdain (NZL007/ZK-RHJ)
July 5, 200322 yr I'm not quite sure on this how do i go about getting the panel into IFDG 767. Do i copy the PIC panel and air file to IFDG folder or copy the IFDG model to the PIC folder or something ?RegardsG-MIDYhttp://www.airliners.net/open.file/265713/L/ Lawrence Ashworth
July 5, 200322 yr Wow... just downloaded the IFDG KLM New Paint Sheme model. What a beauty!Can't wait for you merge-experts to release a dummy-can-do merge patch like the one that Lee did for PIC/POSKY.:9
July 5, 200322 yr You have a couple of choices, either you alias the panel and sounds from the 767 PIC Wilco Publishing folder or you can copy the entire panel to your ifdg763 folder. If you want to setup wing views you will need to add them to your panel cfg, so it would be best to copy the entire panel over so the original isn't affected. You also will want to copy the PIC aircraft cfg and .air files over to your ifdg763 so you do not alter the original in any way.Regards,Van LatendresseYeoDesigns/AFG GroupPanel/FDE Designer
July 5, 200322 yr Hey Van!I have been reading your comments on this site and IFDG's forums...You make it seem so simpel, but you never describe in detail what you have done, maybe that is why no one has followed your advice?Really it would be a LITTLE more helpful if you could post what you have done, so we could insert them in the aircraft.cfg file...You wrote that you have tweaked a little bit here and there, and now it's perfect, so why won't you [email protected] you want to help me, but I would appreciate it if you released it here for everyone?Thanks...Boaz...
July 6, 200322 yr Hi Boaz,No problem sharing. I have been working all weekend and have only now posted the changes over at ifdg's site. Got to love those real world jobs!...lolSo anyone interested head over there and look under the PIC will ifdg 767 be compatible? thread.Regards,Van LatendresseYeoDesigns/AFG GroupPanel/FDE Designer
