Liveries

[xcvb85]

Here we can add new liveries.

[HHS81]

D-CDOL and D-CITI in the making:

My next livery will be ADAC (jet livery).

[xcvb85]

In my oppinion SkyWorks is the best prop-livery and British Airways the best jet-livery. My suggestion is to make them the default liveries. Do you agree?

[HHS81]

It is o.k. for me!

[HHS81]

Hmmm...somehow I think Air A!ps looks much better than the SkyWorks.
Btw, Sun of Air Scandinavia flies also Prop version in British Airways livery....

[xcvb85]

I like SkyWorks because it is colorful but Air A!ps is also ok. Converting the British Airways livery into a prop version should not be too much work.

[xcvb85]

Are you working on TAC 2 livery or should I do that? Now it is the only missing prototype. As far as I can see it was the only one which was converted from prop to jet.

[HHS81]

That was the one in the Horizon-colors?
Horizon Certification test on YouTube
D-CATI later D-BJET

[HHS81]

If so, probably not. That's beyond my skills.

I would prefer the livery when it was converted into a jet:

Later it was equipped with a water-spray system to test the anti-ice systems of other planes:

This would be nice and unique for multiplayer if you could crash other planes in this way but of course there are more important things to do.

[xcvb85]

OK, I will create the D-BJET livery and the United Express Jet version.

[HHS81]

This would be nice and unique for multiplayer if you could crash other planes in this way

Why you wanna do that?

But what I really miss is wake turbulence...

[xcvb85]

Wake turbulence will be tricky to simulate. Do you know if there is a possibility to detect a collision between an invisible cone (for the vortex) and the other aircraft? And this information must somehow be transferred via the multiplayer interface.

[HHS81]

Unfortunately not.

[HHS81]

@xcvb85 Seems you will get Wake turbulence:

@HHS81 Thank you for the link

[xcvb85]

@HHS81 Since it is hard to say which are the best liveries, what do you think about making TAC1 and TAC2 the default ones?

[HHS81]

@xcvb85 the Harddisk of my Laptop crashed today while creating a presentation for work tomorrow. There is a small chance that I can recover my Laptop, but will probably need some days. Luckily all FlightGear files are saved on USB-Stick. But since my Laptop is the only device able to use flightgear and all other programs I'm grounded until I have a working computer.

[xcvb85]

@HHS81 Oh dear! I hope you can get your laptop fixed soon. Fortunately the cockpit model is already quite nice and I don't need to have a bad conscience that I didn't finish the overhead panel yet. But in the next weeks I will have several business and private trips so I won't be able to keep the pace either.

[HHS81]

@xcvb85 fixed my laptop.
I will need some time for the cockpit textures. I need to remap some of the objects for a better quality, and I'm quite slow on painting 😄

[HHS81]

@xcvb85 I don't mind having TAC 1 and TAC 2 as default livery.

[xcvb85]

Finally back home again. Now I'm tired of flying. Two flights canceled, one time more than one hour delay so I missed my connecting flight and had to stay one night in Frankfurt, one time baggage lost and I really hate the traffic to the Hamburg airport. Nevertheless I will continue the work on the beautiful DO-328 😄
