animations abbreviated

[Arrow206]

I have created a new aircraft model in Max 2016. I have finally figured out how to assign controllers after much trial and error. The problem now is almost all the animations in the sim and modelviewer are abbreviated from what they are in 3DS Max.

The range of movement in rotations appear to be only 25 to 50% of what they should be. For example, landing gear only comes part way down, canopies only open a crack and control surfaces hardly move.

I even made a simple test model after and it has the same problem. I can see nothing wrong with my encoding. Does anyone have a solution for this very frustrating problem?

 

Also, I can't get the cockpit throttle to animate. What argument is used for that? Engine on/off does not work.

Thank you.

In the time config have the FPS set to 100 and the animations from - 100 > +100

After much more trial and error, I finally figured out the problem. I did not have the animation speed set to 100 fps so all the animations requiring 100 frames never had time to finish.

I never even noticed the little gizmo in Max to set it. The default 30 fps was all I never needed outside of DCS.

Don't forget to add key frames in Rotations too. Once in while you'll get funky results.

 

I usually divide the rotation in 4 parts.

 

ex) 360 degrees : 0, 25, 50, 75, 100
