ColR1948 Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 I could only find the FSX version so I did my own FS9 version, not quit the same but still lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qballbandit Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Nice job!! :) Always thought the L1011 was a sharp looking aircraft. I applaud your results. Neil :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Wensley Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 So do I, but with ulterior motives. I am trying to find someone to make Air Nootka textures for an AI or static Beaver so that I can make the Gold River floatbase on Vancouver Island. Would you, or someone you know, be interested? I would settle for "not interested at all but bored with nothing else to do so ok". I tried the painters forum but without response. email rogwen at rogers dot com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HardCub Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 There is one located on the HJG webpage under Downloads section, look for Lockheed L1011-100 series Search the internet for HJG Historic Jetliners Group. It is hosted on a separate website (not sure if it's okay to post the link here on this site) I hope this helps. It's a very high quality model. ~Glenn 2021 Lenovo Legion 5 Gaming laptop.

ColR1948 Posted January 1, 2017 Author Share Posted January 1, 2017 Wow thanks Glen, that is far better than mine, it's funny I searched and searched but could only fine the FSX one, I've had this before with other aircraft and I've seen similar posts where someone can't find an aircraft then someone posts a link. I have been on HJG before and had some their aircraft, very good models, I'll take a look and try and find it, I know there is a red one so it's authentic not a fictional. Not that I'm against fictional I do loads myself, in fact I'm in the proceeds of doing one now lol. Came back to add, I got it flying in the sim now, the only thing I don't like is the big balloon lights on that model, just my personal gripe, I hate them, they don't look realistic to me, I keep searching and asking if anyone knows how to HEX edit them out of the model, but no joy so far.

Qballbandit Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Wouldn't you be able to edit the lights section using an "fx_" file from another airliner that is more realistic? I know that I have done this with many GA aircraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColR1948 Posted January 2, 2017 Author Share Posted January 2, 2017 Can you show me what and how if it isn't too long a precess? I have tried disabling the lights in the lights section but to no avail, I read somewhere they are coded in the model that is why I asked about HEX edit but if there is another way I'm interested. This is not a dig at the model makers because they do a great job its just these lights I don't like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qballbandit Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 You bet :) As an example, here is a light section from my Aerosoft DHC-2 Beaver: [lights] //Types: 1=beacon, 2=strobe, 3=navigation, 4=cockpit, 5=landing, 6=taxi, 7=recognition, 8=wing light.0 = 3, 0.15, -26.90, 4.10, fx_navred light.1 = 3, 0.15, 26.90, 4.10, fx_navgre light.2 = 2, 0.15, -26.90, 4.10, fx_strobe light.3 = 2, 0.15, 26.90, 4.10, fx_strobe light.4 = 4, 1.15, 0.00, 1.50, fx_vclight light.5 = 3, -24.75, 0.00, 0.50, fx_navwhi If I wanted to, I could open the lights section from another Beavers aircraft.cfg file, or any other plane for that matter, and try using that planes fx_navred (or whatever the nav light effect is called in that plane). That is why I mentioned experimenting with an airliner - maybe a DC-10, for example. Just swap the "fx_" file names until you find ones that suit the L1011 more prototypical.

ColR1948 Posted January 3, 2017 Author Share Posted January 3, 2017 Thanks Neil, so all you do is change the fx part, I'll give it a try. Funny though when I strike out the lights like this they still show. //light.5 = 3, -24.75, 0.00, 0.50, fx_navwhi Col. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColR1948 Posted January 3, 2017 Author Share Posted January 3, 2017 Hi Neil, I found another Tristar and would you believe it that too had the big lights, I have a Boeing 734 that has normal lights but they are labelled different, I tried those guessing what was what but this time no lights at all lol. I'll keep trying but thanks at least now I'm on the right track. What is puzzling me is where it says Types: 1 beacon on your list, but 1 is navgre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copperpen Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 1=beacon is the type of light. Light.1 = 3 means that light.1 is a navigation light. Just looked at the HJG Tristar cfg, and the only lights defined are beacon and strobe so it looks like the nav lights are actually part of the model.

ColR1948 Posted January 3, 2017 Author Share Posted January 3, 2017 Thanks copperpen, I was thinking the same, I played about with them a few times but they still kept coming up like big balloons, except one point I don't know now what I did but I had no lights at all, I wasn't sure which I liked best lol.

Qballbandit Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 "the nav lights are actually part of the model" Ooooooh, bummer! I have one or two planes like that as well and I'm not sure I understand the benefit behind why they are designed this way vs. in the aircraft.cfg file?

ColR1948 Posted January 4, 2017 Author Share Posted January 4, 2017 This brings me back to asking if anyone knows a way to hex edit the lights in the model. Like I said earlier it's a shame because a lot of these models a great but spoilt by the big balloon lights as I call them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
