Re: Offutt RC-135 Visible until takeoff in P3D

Unfortunately the Aircraft.cfg electrical changes didn't work. Oh well. I can live with the AITX electrical over-ride fix. It forces some kind of change through Simconnect that turns the models visibility back on. Thanks for all your help.

Re: Offutt RC-135 Visible until takeoff in P3D

Here is an interesting find. I launched this program called AI Tracker X by Lorby-SI. It lets you do certain things to AI traffic, one of which is right click on a particular AI plane and select Systems AI. Here you can force the landing gear up/down, toggle smoke, lights etc. If I toggle the landin...

Re: Offutt RC-135 Visible until takeoff in P3D

I tested the WC-135W that Firebird recompiled using MCX. Unfortunately the model rendered completely invisible in P3D. Its a shame they don't work as they are really nice looking AI models for being older.

Re: Offutt RC-135 Visible until takeoff in P3D

I have actually tried recompiling in MCX before posting, but got strange animation errors in the models (flaps look all out of place etc). I'll definitely test the versions you guys output as I am also not sure if I am exporting things the right way.

Re: Offutt RC-135 Visible until takeoff in P3D

Thanks Mike I would be happy to. Is that a recompile using ModelConverterX or do you go back to the source files?

Re: Offutt RC-135 Visible until takeoff in P3D

Not looking for a recode. Just simple tweaks or config changes to make a few of the older packages work. If issue is hard-coded and not tweakable, then I have my answer to not waste anymore time with that particular AI.

Re: Offutt RC-135 Visible until takeoff in P3D

It was happening to me in FSX with DX-10 fixer until I changed the Fixer's slider towards "Aircraft" in the Legacy options and it went away. But obviously in P3D we dont have that option. I did try the p3D migration tool settings for "Start in Legacy Mode", but that didn't work.

Re: Offutt RC-135 Visible until takeoff in P3D

For me it happens with the RC/OC/TC/WC-135's in the Offutt AFB package, but not the E-4B in the same package.
The aircraft do disappear again once they get close to base.

Re: Offutt RC-135 Visible until takeoff in P3D

I removed the effect/lights entries from the config, and also tried removing the actual effects from the Effects folder. But the aircraft still dissappear right before they are to enter runway. They reappear above 10,000 feet.

Re: Offutt RC-135 Visible until takeoff in P3D

I have tried removing the actual Effects from the folder but not from the config. I will give that a try. Thx

Offutt RC-135 Visible until takeoff in P3D

Hello,

I am finding most MAIW AI show up ok in P3D v3 except the OFFUTT RC-135 packages.
Statically they look great until they taxi to the airport threshold, then disappear into lights only.
Any ideas on conversion? The E4-B's in the package work perfectly.

thanks,

David
