Warm greetings to all flyers!
I’ve been here for a couple of weeks figuring out the possibility of recreating custom and generic traffic with the correct display of liveries (as well as custom ones) and aircraft types.
In general, I managed to figure out how to implement this and make the traffic fly not with a standard model (a dumb, sharp-nosed, impersonal aircraft), but with the one that we want. But I ran into a number of difficulties.
- IVAO does not want their models to be used for in-game traffic. Only IVAO, only hardcore.
- The FSLTL development group went underground and does not want to work together.
- I actually lack hands and experience.
What can I suggest.
I can make correct traffic for any type of aircraft (in the game or as online traffic), arrange it in the form of a mod, as an open source project.
What do I need.
- It is necessary to create models of all types of aircraft that are encountered in traffic (without modifications). The models shouldn’t be too elaborate, but nevertheless at least light and animation of landing gear / flaps / engines. The cockpit can be made fake.
- Think over the UV map in order to provide for the ease of creating liveries for these types.
The results of my research can be found here: Users Airtrafic Livery work also with Generic!
And some screenshots here…
P.S. IVAO traffic models used for tests
