Coug4r Posted November 5, 2016 Posted November 5, 2016 Not sure if this was asked already but would it be possible to make the F-15C nosewheel light move as you steer (like on the A-10C)? It can be pretty tricky to find your way in pitchblack when that light doesn't move in the direction you steer. Thanks! - If man were meant to fly he'd be filled with helium.
razo+r Posted November 5, 2016 Posted November 5, 2016 no, the taxi light isn't attached to the moving parts of the nose wheel unless you can mod the data, then it's possible
Coug4r Posted November 5, 2016 Author Posted November 5, 2016 It's a wish, they could create it right? In 3DS terms, select light, link to front gear -> Done. - If man were meant to fly he'd be filled with helium.
razo+r Posted November 5, 2016 Posted November 5, 2016 that would only be for animation and then it would look weird, also, i don't know how the programmed the light to it, so it may be a bit more than just that, and light is not a 3d model, so it won't work that way
Bogey Jammer Posted November 5, 2016 Posted November 5, 2016 It's a wish, they could create it right? Yeah but McDonnell Douglas doesn't agree with you. You still can ask Han Solo to install a hyperdrive, that's a few values to modify with a text editor… I'll buy : МиГ-23МЛД & МЛА МиГ-27К МиГ-25 Mirage III F-4E any IJ plane 1950' Korea Dynamic campaign module

probad Posted November 5, 2016 Posted November 5, 2016 what part of "it doesnt swivel irl" dont you get here? why are you not suggesting better more realistic nighttime environment lighting instead?
razo+r Posted November 5, 2016 Posted November 5, 2016 also if you contact tower it will mark you the outside of the taxiway so you know where the border is
Coug4r Posted November 5, 2016 Author Posted November 5, 2016 what part of "it doesnt swivel irl" dont you get here? why are you not suggesting better more realistic nighttime environment lighting instead? That wasn't mentioned before, after watching some vids it looks like it's static indeed. I figured it was something missing from DCS compared to the real AC. also if you contact tower it will mark you the outside of the taxiway so you know where the border is What radio command would that be? - If man were meant to fly he'd be filled with helium.
razo+r Posted November 5, 2016 Posted November 5, 2016 well contact tower for taxi, takeoff and landing
probad Posted November 5, 2016 Posted November 5, 2016 That wasn't mentioned before no, the taxi light isn't attached to the moving parts of the nose wheel that was in fact the first response to your thread :)
Coug4r Posted November 5, 2016 Author Posted November 5, 2016 That could have been the model in DCS, figured that's what he meant. Ah well, lets see how the lighting in v2.5 is.. or the new lighting in v2.0. - If man were meant to fly he'd be filled with helium.
SkateZilla Posted November 7, 2016 Posted November 7, 2016 A. The Light Position Is Controlled by Either a Helper Point or a 3DS Max Placed Omni/Spot Light, and Cannot Be modified outside of the source file. B. The Real F-15C does not have a Light on the Part of the Nose Wheel that Rotates. There is a 0% Chance of the Developers Adjusting the Model to be Unrealistic.
