Sundowner

Good luck with your future hobbies, your work has always been first class. But like I've said many times before you can never have too much choice in this game, just because one person has done something doesnt mean some-one else cant also do the same thing. But thanks again for all your hard work in the past.

Bloody hell Dan !! That was a close call, glad you're all ok. I used to deliver massage chairs ( £6000 + each) to customer houses & sometimes we refused to plug them in to where they wanted just because their sockets were so overloaded already.

Just take your time Volker, build up your strength again and concentrate on your health first... I'll have a dig around for those F-4E cockpit pictures as well.

Heading for the FAC...

F-4J action...

I think the ShockStroke entry is simply the amount that you would like to move the particular mesh or meshes, the actual Shock mesh doesn't always have to be the the main part, it could be a child of something else...axel for example. The controlling element is the mesh that you've set your "ShockAnimationID=" to.....if you get what I mean . Hopefully one of our 3d experts can explain it a little better.

If trying to get a file that is hosted here but no longer works for some reason is considered necro threading, then why are all these old obsolete downloads still available ?? Not a dig, just a sensible question.

I'm no expert here, but this is how I usually see it. ShockStroke=the length of movement the your Shock absorber mesh moves when landing or taking off. SpringFactor= how hard your springs are ie, too hard and your shock absorber wont compress when the aircraft is on the ground. DampingFactor= how "bouncy" your springs are....not enough damping and your aircraft will appear to bounce and wobble when sat on the runway etc. You Will find that you usually have to mess around with them all to get a satisfactory result. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the update, we are thinking about you and your family Volker.

Holy moly ! Sorry to hear this Volker. You just concentrate on your recovery. Thinking of you my friend.

That is very strange, all my SF2 installs have worked perfectly on Win 10 for me. I've not had to make any changes to anything.

No idea mate, I just have mine closed as I rarely carry anything in the forward bays...

Just a thought....the rear end of those bays have something called "Flipper Doors" that close to create a smooth ramp type area to smooth the airflow when the wells are empty or as soon as the missile has been fired......just to complicate matters even more..

Heading out....
