Question about doors

Post by John514 »

Is there anyway to make the loose parts (ex an open door) of the plane move while it takes a steeps turn for example???
Like the door in your J-3.

First, let me say that almost anything is possible with FSX, but you always have to weigh out the cost of each added feature.

A lot of time was spent making that J-3 door react just right to all the forces (and wind) applied to the door. You can also understand that, as the door opens, the angles of these forces change. So this is one of those more highly customized, high cost features. But this was important to the Cub, as many Cub owners are aware of this door swinging and banging about when opened in flight.

We want to start out slow and easy, then build up. One of the first things we plan to add, is fuselage stress sounds. This is something that can be much easier applied to all aircraft, yet can be tuned by probably a single slider. As we add things, we will be looking for these kinds of big-bang items first, then as time goes on, we can get a little more involved.
