Working on my first ever freeware

[leprechaunlive 1,852]

So after many many tries, i finally figured out a reliable way to import it in MSFS, so now onto the detailed modeling and texturing.

Editing the flight model is going perfectly well.......LOL.

At least i got PBR to finally work, but not so much the contact points calculation 😄

Nice.

So can you eventually get the windows transparent ?  What is involved in that.

I'm disappointed you quit on the SubSonex Jet.  I would have thought Paul Dyes videos would have given you enough info.  I'm sure if you contacted him he could support your project.

Oh yea, of course its gonna be transparent 😄 im just switching beetween 3D modeling, and in sim editing, to not get bored of one specific thing. And the contact points is basically telling the sim where are your float, where does it interact with water, ground, what kind of interaction it is, is there damage, is there structure stress etc...

Good luck with the Beaver! I want float planes other than the Icon 5! Beaver, Kodiak, Xcub floats, Savage, 152, etc... Bring them on!

Its progressing a lot faster than i thought (Thanks COVID for destroying my job :D). But the hardest part is yet to come, the VC and cockpit coding.....So i dont know, i dont expect to take it a year, but a few months that for sure.

So got to see the MilkyWay today......(facepalm)

Well sh**t happens. Im used to it 🙂 and thanks but wait for the final result before calling me talented 😄

😄 Haha!!

I'll call you BRILLANT if you release an amphibian version rather than a float one!

If all goes as planned there should be first the straight floats, then an update for the amphib, then tundra wheels, then skis, and possibly a Turbine version 😄
