Nah, I want to fly cockpit

Nah, I want to fly cockpit

I have to greatly improve the textures of the cockpit. Now I know how to bake textures in Blender.
I moved to modeling the first class because I got a little bored with the cockpit and couldn't get the MFD buttons to work. But at some point I will get there. Never surrender.

Never giveup! Never surrender! I was just going to ask if you wanted to bake the lighting. Did you find a good tutoral?

Yes I am going to bake the textures and lighting. For now I only found how to bake the textures but soon I will learn how to do the lighting. And as soon as I have it I'm going to go back to the virtual cockpit and do the same thing.
By the way, I found a great site with textures for 3D.

Now you have to make them MFDs where you can load another Orbiter instance...and fly another 747...

Thanks for the tips, still kinda new to Blender. The last attempt to bake a Normal map didn't look very appetizing
Good luck with the project, looking nice! and remember
NG NS!

Hello Orbiter friends:
here is the result of the baked textures in Blender. I also added light emitters.

Working on adapting engines for the Boeing 747-400 which are slightly different from the 747-100.
If you're wondering why it took me so long to release this add-on, it's because I had some delays in real life. And I want to release it when it's reasonably ready. I can't promise you anything on the subject of MFDs because I'm finding it very difficult, however I will soon publish a release candidate so you can try it and get your opinion.

Remember, you aren't paid for this. Release it, once you are comfortable with it. Thats already enough pressure, I am sure.

Thank you for your kind words.

Boeing 747-400 in Blender...

Details of the mesh and textures need to be polished.

I am making the generic Boeing factory liveries, and then I am going to implement all the features that the Boeing 747SP has (skin change, lights, cockpit, animations, etc).
