  • Simple Planes, SR2 and the Way Ahead 4.8 years ago

    I agree with you completely, especially the first way. Even if jundroo starts a new profit model that sells DLCs or huge updates like any other game, I'm ready to open my wallet. I played this game over thousands hours and it's still the most favorite and absorbing game. But I just spent only a few dollars for this game.... It's unfair to developers.

    This plane causes framedrop despite its small parts count. It's okay when spawn only one or two, but if spawn more than three, severe framedrops occur(tested alt randomized version and original, both causes framedrop).
    I think because it uses too many variables. It seems that it could be better if you give up stabilization by real-time variables(similar to FBW) and use a slightly simpler control method.

  • Il-2 NS-37 4.0 years ago

    @CoolPeach @CenturiVonKikie In fact, it's not exactly P-Factor. It's just engine torque effect. There are not enough inputs in SP, it's hard to assign rudder and roll trimming while cruising, so I didn't simulate P-Factor.

  • You’re overthinking how to make your plane fly realistically in SP. Like, heaps (maybe) 4.2 years ago

    completely agreed. wing position and loading is very important index to determine flight characteristics, but many builders underrates or ignores it. I've used that method for a long time, it always makes satisfying flight model.

    I reminisce about flight model of il-2 or LOMAC series when making mine(because that I'm not real pilot), the method makes it easier to create a feelings similar to these games.

    however, sometimes, too 'simulationic' model is very hard to fly with keyboard, unlike flight stick or mouse control. so it would be better consider keyboard players.

    @CruzerBlade @Yeetflightgamer
    Transparent sample, fixed wobbling on ground

    needs 2axis, aligned to cockpit, hinge or rotator input (## is range of your rotator)
    clamp(AngleOfAttack/##, -clamp01(floor(GS/10)), clamp01(floor(GS/10))
    clamp(AngleOfSlip/##, -clamp01(floor(GS/10)), clamp01(floor(GS/10))

  • F/A-87 Filibuster 4.7 years ago

    @CRJ900Pilot I didn't want to make my plane fly like a UFO.
    Wing area and location is identical to the actual geometry, there are no hidden wings except the tiny ones for the Flap effect*. I thought it is not realistic if I use hidden wings to force the CoL to move back or decrease wing loading. It might be hard to fly it with keyboard or gamepad(or touchscreen), because those input devices aren't delicate as flight stick or mouse. I'm using stick and mouse, so I build and tested it with them.

    *SP physics will calculate each surface separately If custom surface is used, so it is not possible to create a lift for the entire wing when using Flap. So I put small wings inside nose for compensate nose down effect caused when Flaps are down.

  • F-112 Delta Spear 4 months ago

    @Wallaby You're right. A landing gear with multiple wheels placed in series is usually tilted forward or not. But when I started building this plane's landing gear, the reference was from the Su-34. and I could find a Su-34's picture of the landing gear tilted back(maybe for additional shock absorbtion? idk). It looks 'cool' and I made this like that.

    Here's a version with some fixes and details. Please Feel free to use this to Update your XML. I'm looking forward to your next build.

    Fixed

    Flight model
    Gunner and Autopilot function
    (Pitch&Roll to aim, Yaw to roll)
    Weight
    (Tried to fix the scale accurately, but FT got an error)

    Added

    Engine startup and knocking sound
    Fuel-cutting effect when negative G
    Propwash steering
    Prop torque effect
    Some cockpit details

    @Hardstylelover please check the connections, you should attach it manually.

    or if your aircraft is too heavy, increase mass of the weight.

  • Vought F8U-2NE (F-8E) Crusader 4.6 years ago

    @ChiChiWerx @JohnnyBoythePilot
    the main 'wing part' of my build is actually in the tilting wing structure. and that scaled small wing in the nose is just for trim and flap compensation. even without it, changing incidence angle is still effective.

    ineffective roll problem is caused by flaperon's high AoA when the flaps in down position, and the variable incidence wing makes it worse. The same issue happened to my build. I solved it using tailerons for aid roll control.
