Title: a little .cfg help please? Post by Club508 on Dec 17th, 2011 at 10:57pm
Well, I decided to do some land vehicle time in my FSX, but all the vehicles I got had pretty poor steering. So, I tried making my own performance specs. I typed every single thing myself, by hand, but it came out really strange, with some pros and some cons, and I need any help I can get.
I made it for the Honda NSX by Mitsuya Hamaguchi converted to FSX by daniel rodriguez http://simviation.com/1/search?submit=1&keywords=NSX+FSX Pros: Engine fires up correctly when started wheels react vc appears Cons: Once fired, the engine fails out It pitches slowly and randomly, like some object in outer space. Custom view I made doesn't appear other than that I can't tell much else. If I can please get someone to help and tell me what all is wrong with my code lines. Since I typed everything and this is my first attempt at this, I don't know how far off it is. Here's the entire code.

If you have fsx Deluxe or Gold with the sdk, there should be a help file thing. In the start menu go to all programs/ microsoft games/microsoft flight simulator x/Microsoft Flight Simulator X SDK & it should be in there. If you don't have gold or deluxe try google searching aircraft.cfg tutorial or something like that. Hope this helps. :)

1st: Why are the gear bump values all zero? Those are really important for ground reaction.
Try these instead: Code:
Also, add some height to the engine. The propeller might be hitting the ground... |

The reson for the gear bumps is because since it's a car, the landing gear doesn't extend or retract, and according to Microsoft, gear bumps don't happen in aircraft with fixed gear. Here's exactly what it says: Quote:
And thanks! I'll try the engine and propeller height and let you know what it gets. ;) |

LOL, really?
I was really convinced that it was a ground reaction thing, like the suspension or something... Oh well, I guess I should have read the SDK documentation when I started to edit the cfg files... The thing is, 6 years ago they didn't tell much about the Aircraft.cfg file... |

the ground bumps have to do with suspension. And I can imagine, but thank goodness they say a lot now, otherwise I'd have never made this thing in the first place! |

I see why the camera views aren't showing up. What kind of GUID is that?! :o
You need to generate a real GUID for EACH camera view with the following tool: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=94551f58-484f-4a8c-bb39-adb270833afc&displaylang=en Set the radio button to option 4 and click "New GUID." Then hit copy. Create a new GUID and copy/paste it into each camera view's "GUID=" entry. |

Hi Club
Have you actually re done the suspension in the contact points. That is where the main action is and it can be tricky to get working right. :-/ |
