This is a model of the G91-R fighter bomber for the open source flight simulator FlightGear.
The project's motto is: QUALITY WITHOUT COMPROMISE!
The G91-R Project was born some years ago on an idea by Adriano Bassignana and Massimiliano Cuccarano in order to achieve a high fidelity airplane for the FlightGear flight simulator with GPL 2 . Initially (from August 2016 to November 2017) FDMs were made with GPL 2 license by Adriano Bassignana, while 3D files were made with GPL 2 license by Massimiliano Cuccarano.
The philosophy of the project is to make a plane that can be the most faithful possible reproduction of the original G91-R aircraft.
There is no limit on the size of 3D files, which means that it may not be possible to run with machines that have more limited GPUs. This limitation is integral to the philosophy of the project, which aims to explore the possibility of achieving high-quality aircraft in a FlightGear environment with a GPL 2 license.
Therefore, anyone who wants to contribute to the original design is invited not to get out of this philosophy, so each object which is implemented MUST be of high quality, it must not see edges on kinds of surfaces, curves to a natural distance to the view (from 30 cm) from any object.
We do not use textures to cover surface problems, the texture quality must conform to the design philosophy. For example, for gauges, the textures used are at least 1024x1024, so that at a close-up view of the instrument, you did not notice unattractive pixellations.
It is currently based on the latest version of FGFS (2024.1) with ALS effects. NB: there is no compatibility with Rembrandt since this graphics engine is too little followed at the development level. However, this limitation may be revised in the future. Therefore this model might be a good platform for testing new ALS effects as some enthusiasts are doing for the Shuttle.
