I scoured the forum before I was going to ask this, and I can't believe that I didn't notice this before, but the scaling animation designed in GMAX seems not to work in FS. I tried everyting - all the animation controllers and all the possible permutations. I have the part tied into F_Canopy, and rotational and translational anims are fine, but scaling does not show up.I also tried tick18_ prefix - anim works ok in translation and rotation - but nothing for scaling.Did anyone get the scaling part of the animation to work, and if so - how?Thanks,

scale animations are unsupported in FS9 and if you use F_Canopy foryour exit the animation will not work in FSX , if i recall you are doing a chopper at any rate perhaps door_passenger is a better choice. CJ
