See Rules #4, #5  That last sentence was completely uncalled for.

I'd like to see them open up new plane creation  to players (with internal oversight and approval processes).  With such talented individuals like tedrbr and others doing FS plane modeling, it would be great if they could submit and assist with plane models and let HTC core staff concentrate on other things like gameplay, CT and maps...  I know it brings up other issues like copyrights and stuff, but HT is a small company with a great product and it could only be value-added if done right.

Your average player or talented individual doesn't spend a few thousand dollars on the required software to create a new plane for AH. (Multigen)

Most of the people you meet in life are like slinkies. Pretty much useless, but still bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.

I second that, Scotty, it would be the best way to round our planeset. NHawk, look at what the Target Tobruk staff did... with help from HTC, I think it's a possible task for many of the talented people we have in the community.

On the other hand, I think you all have to vote for the G.55! :D

What little I could get off their lame website indicates they use open standards so I would suppose that other packages, some of them free or much cheaper could do wireframing and so forth.  I would hate it for HTC if they're painted themselves into a corner with a particular software package for object design and management.

That would be the next logical step since the community is now able to create terrains and skins, but any discussion on the logistical effort at HTC to make use of those models would be purely speculative.

It would be pretty neat to have a hanger full of modeled and skinned aircraft that only need the HTC crew to put in performance data, though.  The preview "tool" could just assign a generic flight model for the purpose of testing everything out.

X-Plane has a pretty complete modeling package associated with it.  Something along those lines would be utterly phenomenal.  Maybe Dale could talk Austin into letting him licensing the code  :D

BW-239 :aok
Jos AH olisi quake niin sitähän pelaisi kaikki quaken pelaajatkin.

Mutta kuinkas ollakaan, IIÄLLÄÄ pelaa kaikki samaaan kuluttajaryhmään kuuluvat kuin quaken pelaajat. Boxipeli kun on... jotain 10-15V ikäryhmä.:rofl
