TOMCATZ Posted December 9, 2011 Posted December 9, 2011 Hello guys, I answered a lot of poeple but without a result yet. The problem is following: I builded a new carrier ( the CVN-77, USS George Bush) some time before and was able to export it into DCS. But everytime when I will land with the KA50 on the top of the flight deck the helicopter will "diving" trough the deck and fall into the water. So the question is: What to hell I have to do to make the flight deck "hard" for the BS2 KA50? Help me guys please - I spend a lot of time into the carrier and won`t loose this project. Thanks a lot, Tom 1 Born to fly but forced to work.
Nate--IRL-- Posted December 9, 2011 Posted December 9, 2011 Usually a model will have collision model associated with it, I'm not sure what's required for the collision model though. Try saving the geometry of your model without materials as the collision model? I'm sure somebody more knowledgeable will be along soon to explain properly. The Kuz for example has 2 models kuznecow.edm and kuznecow-collision.edm Nate 1 Ka-50 AutoPilot/stabilisation system description and operation by IvanK- Essential Reading
TOMCATZ Posted December 9, 2011 Author Posted December 9, 2011 Thank you Nate- 'But it is a little bit confused. ED used the old LOMAC carrier and load it into the libary as "EDM"-file. So there is something which tells the engine: "hey- you can land or chrash here, buddy!" Do I have to export it with a special material name or do I have to create dummys with the right names? Ahhh ... I forgot- I can export the file as "LOM"-file only. The ED PlugIns still not working with Max2011... :cry: Born to fly but forced to work.

beczl Posted December 9, 2011 Posted December 9, 2011 The collision model for example carriers in DCS should different. The method is the following: 1.) You can create a simple damage mesh in 3Ds Max. This object name must be named PALUBA (It mean deck in Russian. You must use full capital letter exactly) P.S.:The other aircraft related damage cell names available in ...\Scripts\Aircrafts\_Common\Damage.lua 2.) Insert a text the object properties user defined section to [TYPE = ”collision_shell"] (without brackets, see. Collision_01.jpg) 3.) Export as EDM 4.) The selected collision file name must be in the shape .lods file in ..\Bazar\World\Shapes\ for example: collision_shell = "kuznecow-collision.edm"; 5.) That's all have fun

beczl Posted December 9, 2011 Posted December 9, 2011 It seems you usa an old plugin for Max6/7/8.. It works only with the new EDM plugin for Max2008/2009/2010..!!!

beczl Posted December 9, 2011 Posted December 9, 2011 I do some quick test. The method that I described is working for me. If you want I can create a collision for your model. Just need to create a very low-poly version for me than I create an EDM collision model based on this 3D for you.

Uploaded with ImageShack.us Beautiful model Tom ! Do you named same name as old 1 ? Vinson... ? Is your model in LOM or in EDM format ? BTW: I think E.D. already had their own carrier model.

TOMCATZ Posted December 9, 2011 Author Posted December 9, 2011 Yeah guys!!!! :yes: I found a solution for my problem: I wrote a SKIN-File and wrote into it: models { lod = {"VINSON.lom", 50000}; collision = "VINSON.cmd"; } And now it works and I can land on the carrier and chrash against him- Juhuuu. So thank you guys to bring me on the right way and giving me ideas. Yea, sure I will animate some things and install some lovely lights on the decks. And add some more details- Specially the textures BTW: I think E.D. already had their own carrier model. (V will C, maybe with DCS:Hornet) Seriously I really hope that it will be a F16 but on the other hand: If the next module is a Navy fighter, two carriers are better them one ... Is there anybody out there who have a argument table for ships argumentations? 1 Born to fly but forced to work.
