Wrench Posted March 7, 2018 Posted March 7, 2018 NOT a WW2 style air gunner, but a 'standard' (mid-50s and later) pilot figure that faces backwards? or, is there a way to write the "where and how he sits" statement, to have him be facing aft? as you can see below (I've removed the cockpit framing for clarity) this aircraft requires the 3rd person to face his instrument panels. any and all assistance is GREATLY appreciated!

+guuruu Posted March 7, 2018 Posted March 7, 2018 Hmm .... maybe add pilot 3d model in plane 3d. No animation but better then nothing. Quote
Wrench Posted March 7, 2018 Author Posted March 7, 2018 CL: right in one, my brother! Get to reuse all the decals from the "previous" mod, and with a blank slate skin, allow for skinners to make other units. guuruu: i'm putting enough pressure on our 3d guy as it is! (perfectionism has cost! ) 1 Quote
KJakker Posted March 7, 2018 Posted March 7, 2018 Wrench, try this file and see if it works. KUSAF01_B.7z Quote
+guuruu Posted March 7, 2018 Posted March 7, 2018 (edited) Or this pilot max files. Try maybe turn model 180 deg ;-) Edit: https://ufile.io/mvtx9 Edited March 7, 2018 by guuruu Quote
+daddyairplanes Posted March 7, 2018 Posted March 7, 2018 excuse the ignorant question, but you couldnt just rotate teh pilot 180 degrees in the data ini? Quote

From looking at the AircraftObjects.DLL file the answer appears to be no. I see only entries for pilot and seat position, nothing about orientation. I used a Hex editor to reverse the orientation of the pilot that I attached above. It looks okay in LODViewer. Quote
charlielima Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 (edited) Hmm? I forgot what chapter in the NATOPS has the the direction on how to properly sit in the seat, but clearly this Naval Aircrewmen needs to comprehend it. CL Edited March 8, 2018 by charlielima Quote

+guuruu Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 (edited) Here is your working 180 deg pilot. And max files, if it's something wrong with scale or something ... Edited March 8, 2018 by guuruu Quote
Wrench Posted March 8, 2018 Author Posted March 8, 2018 the pilot zip seems to be corrupted or something; WinRar gives me the following message "the archive is either in unknown format or damged" thanks for trying, anyway! kjakker's seems to be working now. A little repainting to remove the USAF helmet tag, and we're golden! 4 Quote
+guuruu Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 There is something wrong with this service. Try this link : https://files.fm/u/5ng2yqq6#_ Quote
KJakker Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 Wrench, if there is a specific pilot that you want let me know. I could probably do the same trick with any of them. Quote
+guuruu Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 BTW, Wrench ... thanks to your problem I finally did new pilots for Tonka ;-) 2 Quote
