Anyone else noticing that the model alignment offsets aren't working?
If you are talking about the file that moves the model wrt the reference
point in the mdl file, it does not work for me. For example, the values
in this file don't move the model.
~/fgfsbase/Aircraft/sopwithCamel/Models/uiuc/sopwithCamel/sopwithCamel-model.xml
?xml version=1.0?
PropertyList
pathcambelg.mdl/path
offsets
z-m2/z-m
x-m-.6/x-m
pitch-deg0/pitch-deg
/offsets
/PropertyList
According to this doc:
http://www.flightgear.org/Docs/fgfs-model-howto.html
the xml tags should be like
z-offset-m2/z-offset-m
But I recall vividly that z-m2/z-m did work at one point. I also
recall a lot of email gyrations on this particular tag (offset
stuff). Maybe the dust has settled, but I have not yet found the key.
Do other people use this anymore? Can anyone shed light on this? I could
sure use it! Several MSFS models do not put the model reference point at
the cg, so those need offsets to proper display them in external view.

Michael
