Not a dumb question at all. I have to give credit to Holgar Sandman for his and others' work on this area. I would have never figured it out on my own, that's for sure. Here's the basic concept. You create an afcad file with very, very, very long taxi segments, using ramp taxi links (the green lines...

Cool, sounds good. Here's the amazing part. Nick I completely followed you on that whole procedure. IOW I know how to do exaxtly what you mentioned!! A miracle indeed. I'll give it a shot. @Ron, I've seen a picture of an FS9 usable sub that actually dives a little ways under the water, so I have ide...

Kevin, Rip, Psuls, anyone know how to take a model that I've created, one of these subs for example and make a texture map/texture file for it so I can texture it more appropriately?

Or is there a good link to a tutorial on this somewhere?

That's looking better now.

I did indeed. The wake effect and .air file are from a FS9 usable submarine.

AI UBoats..........hmmmmmmmmm.........

Unfortunately there are some limitations assiciated with AI vehicles. The main one being that you wouldn't ever want to connect them to an actual runway, or they would actually take off and fly! Secondly since they are following fake taxiways, they can only drive on flat surfaces like those immediat...

Some "proof of concept" type of images, showing the tanks, as ai, moving around. Click to enlarge: http://www.simviation.com/yabbuploads/POCM1.jpg http://www.simviation.com/yabbuploads/POCM2.jpg http://www.simviation.com/yabbuploads/POCM3.jpg http://www.simviation.com/yabbuploads/POCM4.jpg

This is not St. Elmo's Fire, similar but St. Elmo's looks a little different.

Jake I have a couple simple questions for you.

1) What does "snap to scale" do or what is it used for?

2) What does the "check parts" function do?

And it just keeps getting better and better.

Dunc, how'd you manage the cockpit cutout, with a boolean operation or what?

kind stuck now, i cant figure out how to make the cockpit/canopy section? ideas lads? Probably want to use a boolean operation to "cut out" a cockpit section. Look in the "advanced" excercises in the help tutorials on how to cut out a piece of a completed part. It's a slick litt...
