September 2, 200619 yr Hey guys,I am having a problem with my aircrafts throttle animation.I have animated it to have an arc turn (its a lever that pivots) and it should go down to the same angle as the other three controls on the quad, but for some reason, it will not.The animation tag is lever_throttle0_01The aircraft is a single engine turbocharged 6 cylinder.Anyone have any ideas?Using Gmax 1.2.BillLHC
September 3, 200619 yr Author Moderator Bill, make sure that you are animating only 0 to 50 keyframes......been there, done that, got the bruises on my forehead... ;) Fr. Bill AOPA Member: 07141481 AARP Member: 3209010556 Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator
September 5, 200619 yr Author Moderator >Hey Bill,>>Many thanks.>>Why is it only 50%?? How wierd.... Because that's the actual limit of the 'stock variable(s)' for lever_throttleX in the MakeMDL SDK...The MakeMDL SDK states:"Position of engine X throttle lever (0=idle and 100 = maximum)"That is an error!!!The actual limits are 0 = idle and 50 = maximum... ;) Fr.

September 8, 200619 yr you know Bill,if you put out a book called "FS Gauge progamming for dummies," I'd snap it right up. Jeff Bea I am an avid globetrotter with my trusty Lufthansa B777F, Polar Air Cargo B744F, and Atlas Air B748F.
