Anyone Know What Causes This?

Recommended Posts

Found a Bell OH-13G Sioux and Bell 47D helicopters at the DAT site. They need work to fly in SF2 but I think they will make nice eye-candy in my Korea install. One finally showed up on an airfield. Slight problem with its attitude. Anyone know what causes this or better yet, how to fix it?

Student Pilots. :biggrin: Do they sit correct on the runway. Looks like the PivotPoint is aligned with Z? Can you post just the Landing Gear data, Might be the Tail wheel?

I Don't see any tailGear data. Just checked a UH-1B and I'm seeing "5" gear entries, If you have the data from a UH- You could try adding the three others , Don't know if will work without the nodes, you can fake the shock data and the AnimationID=. Someone else has had to run into this already and maby has a fix.

 

 

UH-1B

---------------------------

[Fuselage]

SystemName[005]=LeftRearSkid

SystemName[006]=RightRearSkid

 

[Nose]

SystemName[003]=LeftFrontSkid

SystemName[004]=RightFrontSkid

 

[Tail]

SystemName[003]=TailStinger

There is no tail stinger entry, based on my experience with other choppers,you will need to make a very long one to get it to balance
