[Flightgear-devel] 3D cockpit authoring

2004-11-09 Thread Vance Souders 








Is there an aircraft currently in flightgear that is a good
example of proper 3D cockpit construction? I looked over the p51's files
and it seemed fairly straightforward so following the p51's example I
added these lines to my cong file. With this simple config, the compass only
shows up when you're looking at the aircraft from an external view. Is
it necessary to define the hotspots for instruments to show in cockpit mode?

I don't know about 'good', but the J3 Cub and the PA-28-161 both have
pure 3D cockpits (no 2D panel code).


All the best,

You can add the Spitfire to that list. It might not be good, but it is about
as complex as it gets.

You will see there that each instrument only shows up in certain views.
