Chevrolet Suburban Chevrolet Suburban for P3Dv4

[Christian Bahr 55]

Hi!

I would like to introduce you to a new project. It is a Chevrolet Suburban:

 

This picture shows the metallic livery of the Chevrolet. It is available in two other finishes: white and black

 

 

The Chevy is currently still in development, but he is already very advanced. Next to me two other developers are working on this project - it's actually a joint project of Rob Barendregt, Manfred Jahn and me. My job is to create 3-D modeling and texturing. Manfred and Rob's tasks include dain, to create the driving dynamics (Rob) and to fill the virtual cockpit with "life" (Manfred). Manfred also wrote the code for the virtual cockpit displays, a functional brake light and the WindshildRainEffect. From Rob comes the programming for the transmission and the driving dynamics.

 

The driver of the Chevrolet

 

The WindshildRainEffect. The effect can be seen on all glass surfaces!

 

The inmates can be loaded via the Fuel and Payload menu:

 

 

 

New virtual 3-D cockpit of the Chevrolet with all the important displays: speedometer, tachometer, fuel gauge, battery etc

 

Examples of clickspots and gauges in the virtual 3-D cockpit. The clickspots can be operated both inside and outside

Nice car!

It will never get airborne, and will not find a permanent place of mooring next to the Spruce Goose...  And to boot, it will specifically targeted by "the squad".

It will not be long. First, the P3Dv4 version of the Published and then the FSX version is created and also published.

Without having to give exact details now, but maybe the P3Dv4 Chevrolet can be driven the weekend after next  😉🙂

Hello dear Avsim Community!

It's done! Both versions were completed on time. The FSX version and the P3Dv4.5 version can now be downloaded from the Bahrometrix download page. Again a very special thank you to Rob and Manfred. The project would not have been possible without them!

The Chevrolet Suburban is free and the download is barrier-free. To download registration is not required 🙂

Excellent work :-))

Beautiful car, but how do you get it in gear?  It does not move.

The documentation is slightly off - the downloaded Panel.cfg points to the toebrakes option.

beautiful model!

Nevermind - - all is answered in the QuickStart - I only  read the Manual.

Just found this beautiful model thanks alot!

As you can see this is a huge improvement over what I've been using in my videos😂

Def expect your vehicle in my my future videos I'll give you a big shout out also!🍻

Really, a very nicely done video. The possibilities in modern flight simulation are almost unlimited. Your video shows the ideas behind these possibilities in an impressive way.

My car doesn't move at all but acceleration sound. I guess from the QuickStart I could get the answer but still the car not moving. I did Shift + D and the SODE pops up (lol). I must be missing something.

That's a very interesting video, I'm very impressed to see the Chevrolet under VR. Many thanks!
