New FS2004 Canberra WIP thread

[nazca_steve]

I might have found the only non-FSX compliant bit, which for something developed for FS9 isn't bad going if I may say so myself.

I'll have another go later and try a few experiments and check other aircraft cfgs that use shockwave and other FS9 aircraft I have running in FSX and see if I have missed anything.

Darren, I stand corrected (again, lol). See below:

Shockwave VC lighting

For those of you using the shockwave config included in the cfg file, you will need to change any entries of 'fx_shockwave_vclight_r' to fx_shockwave_vclight. This is a bug stemming from my own personal set up, in which I modified the shockwave VC light colour to a red shade for military lighting, but overlooked setting this back to the generic file for release.

Many thanks to Shawn of SOH forum for picking up on this.

If anyone would like to mod their files, the code block is as follows. In particle attributes, set the Color End value to the values given in bold below.

[ParticleAttributes.0]
Blend Mode=2
Texture=fx_2.bmp
Bounce=0.00
Color Start=100, 100, 100, 1
Color End=90, 22, 22, 0
Jitter Distance=0.00
Jitter Time=0.00
uv1=0.00, 0.00
uv2=0.01, 0.01
X Scale Goal=0.00
Y Scale Goal=0.00
Z Scale Goal=0.00
Extrude Length=0.00
Extrude Pitch Max=0.00
Extrude Heading Max=0.00

Cheers,

Steve

Where are the particle changes made?


Here's the vc lights now working though




I think the only thing now from being a 100% FSX success is the cockpit glass under the lights making the outside too light. Sort of reflective light bloom. But there's bound to be a mod to the lights section of the cfg that'll sort it. I'll have a go at commenting out different combinations of vc lights to begin with when I boot it up again tomorrow.



So how does it feel to have done your first FSX aircraft?

[nazca_steve]

Open the effects file in a text editor, such as Notepad, and at the end of the effects file, you will see the code block I listed, just change the line in bold if you want the reddish glow.

Those shots do look very well lit, have to admit, but users can change these out/mod at will if it's too bright for them. How does it feel to have made an FSX plane? Lol, you're pushing me now!
