@WADA I was doing images for you (For different plane) but the unlisted post you gave me to download from is now removed. Please upload it again else I cannot do the images.
@IzzyIA Ill probably use that thanks, but what Leehopard had was just a rotating ^. Points you in the direction you need to go to reach the selected airport. distance was in a seperate panel
Is there a way to make a navigation system? I saw in one airplane where the is a ^ symbol that rotates on the panel to show the direction the selected airport is in. Using buttons to switch to different locations. I tried to copy and analyse the code but it used to many custom variables.
@JetMaker @LimeAir @NoblePlanesLTD please find at the bottom of the description the reshader photos prizes. no attribution required for using them elsewhere
@Skykid028 You can disconnect alls cockpit blocks from the main fuselage, and then all other parts will act as one. You can right click and drag to make a clone. If that does not work or you want it to be more permanent that you can use again later, drag the entire plane to the top left bin for sub assemblies. You can go to the parts menu, then click on sub assemblies to find it again.
If you want to upvote this project, please also upvote one of @UssrLENIN's posts as well, to show your appretiation equally to the designers. Thank you for understanding.
@LimeAir Lol yeah. Please wait for a bit before fix it and upload, first I send you your prize of 2 reshaded screenshots. You want the best one as a thumbnail with the name on it? I know good fonts to use
@RepublicOfCursedPlanes Wow, thanks! Ill try that for my next creation. A question, I noticed something, is it a glitch that if you have two glass fuselages, the less opaque one will override the other? It happened when I looked through a HUD behind custom cockpit glass.
@ToeTips I always do all my own screenshots! I have downloaded Reshader Effects. Its an app you add to simpleplanes that enhances the graphics real time. The text is Relucta font, with an added custom bevel.
@ToeTips This name is real actually, used by USAF. best to change the nameof yours . I have been doing some research and Cormorant (Bird) is open as a name.
@JetMaker @LimeAir @NoblePlanesLTD Remember the upvotes is only part of the prize. Please anticipate 2 reshader-rendered images for each aircraft. It will take me a while tho to get them as I have to get it real nice. if you dont want them please let me know because it then wastes my time. But by default I will provide them within a few days
Because one of your back elevators is not working, I suggest you fix the problem, wait for your 2 reshader rendered images then upload with them as thumbnail
1st Place (90/100): SEF-1 & F-16C
2nd Place (83/100): AE-5 & A330
3rd Place (80/100): A350
COMMENTS:
FIRST PLACE: F-16 – (90/100)
PROS:
Incredibly detailed cockpit, wonderful fuselage art and accurate replica of the F-16.
CONS:
The cockpit is slightly confusing, so in-game aircraft instructions are necessary to fly this plane. One elevator is not working, so safe and normal flight is impossible. I know this is a cockpit challenge, but handling and appearance was also included in the marking criteria because a plane with a good cockpit but can’t fly properly has no use for the cockpit and as a plane. Also, a good and detailed cockpit is of no use to the pilot if he does not know how to operate it.
FIRST PLACE: SEF-1 – (90/100)
PROS:
Love the idea of the ‘Scrap aircraft’! Taking main external parts from other planes, genius!
CONS:
No faults with the cockpit. The stall speed and max speed are too close, making it difficult to climb. No back landing gear, making for a bumpy landing. Tips over too much when landing. I know this is a cockpit challenge, but handling and appearance was also included in the marking criteria because a plane with a good cockpit but can’t fly properly has no use for the cockpit and as a plane.
SECOND PLACE: A330 - (83/100)
PROS:
Detailed cockpit, accurate replica. Handles very well too.
CONS:
The windscreen is too dark, making it hard to see out. Fuselage smoothing would make the fuselage look less disjointed.
SECOND PLACE: AE-5 – (83/100)
PROS:
Nice exterior design. I also love the radar screens in the cockpit!
CONS:
Must look down too much to access flight controls.
Handling a bit exaggerated
THIRD PLACE: A350 – (80/100)
PROS:
Detailed cockpit, accurate replica and good fuselage art.
CONS:
The windscreen is too dark, making it hard to see out. No yaw control in the cockpit, even though it is necessary for airliners so they can stay on the runway.
Well done!
Because there werent many submissions, and some people got the same number of points (Wow!), everyone is winner! Everyone got at least one plane in first or second place!
AWARDING
Upvotes will be awarded shortly, but the reshader rendered screenshots will take some time.

@KORKMAZ If it is a jet engine, open the Overload Mod (XML editor), go to the dropdown menu at the top, select 'Engine', then in the list of names and values that come up, change the value of 'PowerMultiplier' by whatever number you wish.
If it is a propeller engine, go to the part settings and use the slider to set the HP. If the slider reaches it limit, but the HP is not at the desired amount, go to the Overload XML editor, in the dropdown menu select 'PropEngineAdvanced', the in the list of names and values that appear, change 'Power' to whatever value you wish. Please note that 1000 HP is equal to the value 2000 'Power' in the XML editor. (its x2)
2 more things to note: Changing the HP will change the speed of acceleration, not the max speed. The max speed will stay the same. If that is what you wish to change, use a different engine.
The other thing: To access the OverLoad XML editor, go to the very first main menu with the play button. Click on MODS, then click on OverLoad. Then click the new button that appears to "Enable" the mod. This mod is pre-loaded when you downlaod the game. Now on the bottom right, beside the play button in the designer, there should be a button with: </> and then a plane symbol below it.
Any news from your friend on the amazing-yet-again screenshots?
Very nice! Looks like you didn't need my imgs anyway. Nvm I didn't start yet anyway, finishing up with my prev order for images. Great plane 👍👍👍
@WADA I was doing images for you (For different plane) but the unlisted post you gave me to download from is now removed. Please upload it again else I cannot do the images.
@WADA Yeah sure I'll try, just tag me in an unlisted post of the aircraft.
@IzzyIA Ill probably use that thanks, but what Leehopard had was just a rotating ^. Points you in the direction you need to go to reach the selected airport. distance was in a seperate panel
@OSEAAirDefenseForce Thanks very much - I have reshader downloaded and am looking for good settings
@OSEAAirDefenseForce Hmm ok then can you ask him please?
@UssrLENIN Well then lets ask @Leehopard how he managed to get a rotator to point in the direction of an airport, switching locations with buttons!?
@OSEAAirDefenseForce Well they are truly wonderful. Whats his name then I can ask him for the settings?
Howd you do the screenshtos so nice? If its reshader, what settings?
Is there a way to make a navigation system? I saw in one airplane where the is a ^ symbol that rotates on the panel to show the direction the selected airport is in. Using buttons to switch to different locations. I tried to copy and analyse the code but it used to many custom variables.
@ToeTips Yeah I know but the landing gear did weird things so I left it out
@ToeTips Precursor for what?
@JetMaker @LimeAir @NoblePlanesLTD please find at the bottom of the description the reshader photos prizes. no attribution required for using them elsewhere
@ToeTips Hows the berkut fuselage going by the way?
@ToeTips 👍👍👍
@ToeTips We can collaborate but everything is very busy right now. We can start in around a week.
Hey @ToeTips have you actually done the SU-47 berkut yet? I like it too, the forward swept wings 🤩 If you havent I might make it a project of mine
@Skykid028 You can disconnect alls cockpit blocks from the main fuselage, and then all other parts will act as one. You can right click and drag to make a clone.

@JetMaker @LimeAir @NoblePlanesLTD Your reshader screenshtos will be ready soon
@Jetmaker What do you mean sorry? This is not a scrap aircraft, it is made from scratch

@CrazedSundance 🤣🤣 Good idea!
@titaniciceberg3 Hope this helps customise your missile
@Pilotgoose Yup! You need to stay with the times, build jet aircraft!
@LimeAir Lol yeah. Please wait for a bit before fix it and upload, first I send you your prize of 2 reshaded screenshots. You want the best one as a thumbnail with the name on it? I know good fonts to use
@Jetmaker Ok, Ill tage you in any new ones! I was thinking of making a scrap plane challenge, inspired by ur sef-1.
@Jetmaker Yup! keep up the good work
@RepublicOfCursedPlanes Wow, thanks! Ill try that for my next creation. A question, I noticed something, is it a glitch that if you have two glass fuselages, the less opaque one will override the other? It happened when I looked through a HUD behind custom cockpit glass.
@DatRoadTrainGuy19 😱😱😱😲😲😲 I am dumbfounded... He commented THAT? No wonder he got BLOCKED.... for life I hope!
@ToeTips I always do all my own screenshots! I have downloaded Reshader Effects. Its an app you add to simpleplanes that enhances the graphics real time. The text is Relucta font, with an added custom bevel.
@ToeTips This name is real actually, used by USAF. best to change the nameof yours . I have been doing some research and Cormorant (Bird) is open as a name.
Why is it so heavy to run? Its a rather small map, despite very nice
