Default 747 - Too many doors open

On the default 747-400, the main doors only open 2 doors. That's fine. And obviously the cargo doors are E2 and they are fine. My question is, when you hit E3, EVERY other door on the plane opens and looks kinda ridiculous. Is there a way in cfg to change which doors open?

Nope, animations are built into the model.

If you look in the aircraft.cfg file, you'd notice that the Shift-E, 3 command is scripted to open the "Emergency" doors. In an emergency, one would open all doors. :cool:

 

exit.2 = 0.4, -42.30, 9.0, -7, 2 //openclose rate percent per second, longitudinal, lateral, vertical positions from datum (feet), type (0=Main 1=Cargo 2=Emergency)

I did a comparison of the default 747-400 VS a 3rd party freeware 747. The screenshots are of the 3rd party 747 after doing Shift+E, Shift+E2, and Shift+E3. Is this what you are looking for?

SB is correct. If one of those three combinations do not satisfy you, there is nothing you can do other than not to use them. You can CHANGE WHICH KEYS trigger these animations, and which of the AI ground services will get triggered when you press them, but you cannot change the animations themselves, ie (I want this door and that door but not this other door...)

 

Note: Opening other than passenger doors for emergency is not unusual which provides ground crew additional access to fight fires and evacuate animals.

In my default 747, to get the look you have shown all you have to do is hit E1 and E2. If I'm going to be able to use GSX, I have to hit E3 to open other doors. So it opens ALL of the other doors making it look less realistic.

There is no standard forcing 3D modelers to create animations one way.

You get what you get.

 

You can ask the original designer to change their model and release a new version or you can switch to another model which is more to your liking.

+1 That's what I was kinda hinting at! Try something OTHER than the default aircraft.
