hi.

i am working on my 737's DVC (i'll post an update about it soon), meanwhile, i wanna animate the knobs and switches in the cockpit

but some animation tags aren't listed in the fs2004 SDK...

i know they exist, because the default planes have them, so i need to know how to properly tag these:

*nav/gps switch
*light switches, all of them
*engine starter knobs
*pitot heat
*de-ice
*battery and avionics switch
*autobrake knob
*arm autothrottle switch
*autopilot master switch
*flight director switch

thanx in advance

Try looking in the gauges SDK (I think).

The knobs and switches are animated in Gmax via XML gauges.


PS Moach - I'm really glad you've decided to continue with your 737!

A quick read through the FS2004 SDK

Switch_Strobe_light  (p19)
Switch_Recog_light   (p19)
Switch_taxi_light       (p19)
Rocker_Starter
Switch_Flight_Director  (P17)
Switch_Nav_gps (p18)
Switch_Avionics_Master (p16)


PS - The page headers still say "2002 SDK"  Smiley
