September 17, 200223 yr Just felt like posting that I'm alive, and so is my project :)It's been a few months, but I did some more work on the Saab 2000, tweaking the windows again. I also exported it for the first time today. Udo Lemmob, who was also working on a Saab 2000, advised me at one point that the prop spinners wouldn't export for him the first time, and...funny thing, they didn't work for me either. I also have a bunch of bleed problems...guess you can't do overlapping parts, huh? Anyone know of a good way to join a wingroot and a fuselage to avoid bleed problems without having to do major reworking?Anyway, here's a screenshot of the plane in FS2002. Lots to go, but I'm enjoying the work.http://www.gatewayair.com/hangar/images/s2000-11.jpgMatt
September 17, 200223 yr Matthew my man, good to hear from you again. Glad you didn't abandon the Saab. Mine is coming along nicely now. Flight testing has now begun and I still need to texture some of the parts. It has been a long way and still some work to do. I will surely be one of the first to order your plane :-hahWell, nice to see you back, my man. And glad you still remember me !!Udo.:-wave
September 17, 200223 yr This is how it began. Too bad I lost the very first screenshot of it. I can remember when I posted it in the screenshot forum I was laughed at. They should see her now }>Udo.:-wave
September 17, 200223 yr That looks really good. You know, I had seen some shots of yours recently from above/behind/to the left, and part of my motivation for continuing work on mine was that I thought I could do better than yours. Seeing this new pic, though, I'm not so sure (8-| That looks pretty darn good to me.Well, I guess I'll just have to work harder now. I've got some ideas for details that will probably be different from yours, so I'll keep working. I just have to stop tweaking the windows and work on some other part of the plane already!Take care,Matt
September 17, 200223 yr You really need to go on, Matt. I haven't perfected the model, it looks good but is not the best out there. Maybe version 2 will be the best. Your nose looks a lot better then mine, I assure you. And the engine pods have been made out of 2 pieces, since I couldn't make them as nice as yours. There are also some small surprises on mine, but I won't tell, you will have to wait for release.....Udo.:-waveMoments before touchdown at Prestwick.
