IvanK Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Seen a few images of clean FA18s (Blue Angels) in the screenshots forum. How do you go about removing the under wing pylons ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodhound57 Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 You cannot do it at the moment. It will come later. ____________________________________________________ PC: ASROCK Z370 Gaming K6 | Intel i7 8700K | GeForce 2080TI | 32GB GeSkill 3200 RAM | GeForce 2080TI | 500GB Samsung 850 EVO M.2 | 1TB Samsung 860 EVO M.2 ____________________________________________________ FLIGHT STUFF: Rift S | Warthog Base | Virpil Base | Hornet Grip | A-10 Grip | Cougar Grip | Virpil F-14 Grip | Cougar MFD's | A-10C UFC | Saitek Flight Panels | MFG Crosswind Rudder Pedals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iKyrThraad993i Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 I saw some of the pictures by Blaze in the picture thread above they removed the pylons. How are they doing this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkateZilla Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 It's possible already, but it wont remove the drag or weight.

You'll have weapons floating on invisible pylons, and the weight/drag will still be present.

Tailhook Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 (edited) However this method is purely cosmetic. You'll have weapons floating on invisible pylons, and the weight/drag will still be present. Upon reading this I certainly disagreed. However, after loading up the collision model it's clear the visibility arguments for the pylons on the collision model are not animated the same as the base. I don't know why that wasn't originally configured the same time it was done for the base model. So you are correct, the drag from the pylons still do currently affect the "clean" jet.

mltskyhawk Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 I noticed the pylons become visible at a certain zoom (zoomed out), anyone experiencing the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lower LODs prolly dont have the visibility argument.

Vitormouraa Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Lower LODs prolly dont have the visibility argument. So how is ED going to fix that once this option to remove pylons are implemented officially? I guess the most obvious answer is adding the necessary arguments?

SkateZilla Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 So how is ED going to fix that once this option to remove pylons are implemented officially? I guess the most obvious answer is adding the necessary arguments? When Implemented Officially the Lower LODs would be updated, as well as the Primary. would there be an argument also for the lower lod's? No. SkateZilla your code doesn't work anymore? After an Update, You must restore the code to the Livery File.

Nealius Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Livery file gets overwritten during updates, meaning the code we entered to "remove" the pylons gets deleted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joey45 Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 ED will probably implement it in their next update. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.
