I found this carrier: USS CVN-65 carrier mod for FS2004 from flyawaysimulation.com, it looks better and much more detail than USS Carl Vinson CVN-70 in FC. I want to ask : can anyone convert this model into LOM format and replace it for CVN-70 ?

 

Here are some screenshots of CVN-65

no usually microsoft flight simulator downloads are in .cfg format, not .3ds files so we can't import it into 3dmax and covert it to .lom. Unless you somehow found a way to convert .cfg into .3ds then i guess it would be possible, but then you run into the whole copyright laws.

Sorry guys,

 

the 3D-Models from MS Flight Sim are stored in the mdl-files. (cfg is a config file)

Aircrafts (an carriers) were modeled in 3DSMax or GMAx and converted into this Microsoft used format.

The only chance for converting the carrier into LOM-format is to get the original 3D-Model.

 

But I don't think that Microsoft will give it you for free to put it into an other simulation :smilewink:

SuperKungfu, as you said so no way to convert a model in .mdl format into .lom, right ?

On Lockon-models, I find someone said that he can convert models from FS2004 into .LOM easily (I didn't remember)

 

The above carrier model is not .mdl, this file is a scenery add-on and it's in .bgl format. If anyone know how to convert .mdl and its skin file into LOM, I'll find another FS carrier model in .mdl format (maybe in FSX demo we have one)

I've read that it is not possible to land on "selfmade" 3d objects (i don't remember the thread). Some guys tried to model the skijump of the NITKA-Complex with no success, because planes explode when they touch it . And what about the arrestor cables ? Is it possible to add them with ED's 3dMax plugin ?

 

If it works it would be wondeful:-)

I'm with Maverick-90 on this. It would require a great deal more than just a model conversion, I think. The CVN-70 is a Nimitz Class. CVN-65 is not...I believe the CVN-65 was the first of its class...Enterprise. :D

Hi guys I have the .obj of that carrier, don't know of the copyright but if you still want to make the addon I would give it.

I tried importing my carriers in and only heli's can land.

That is as a new object not overwriting.
