The Aero MkII 2536 "Catalina" is an updated sci-fi concept for a flying boat. It is more streamlined and has some modified features. It is a spacecraft3 vessel and as such requires the spacecraft3 addon. catalina+0.1.zip contains: mesh with improved topology (basic visual comparison)...

The Aero 2536 "Catalina" is a sci-fi flying boat concept. It is a spacecraft3 vessel and as such requires the spacecraft3.dll file. For more details see readme.txt in the linked catalina.zip file. [Haters never change, but I can genuinely see how the mesh would look "alpha quality". Will see if...

Thanks, I'll see what I can learn (found some tutorials on texture baking, etc).

Thanks for the response. :2cents: In terms of the unknown location error -- in my brief experience with blender -- it's usually caused by loose geometry.

Quick question: to texture the seats did you paint them or are they baked too?

Thanks for the tip -- I'm still relatively new to blender so every piece of advice helps.

Just wanted to post some screenshots from blender of the current state of one of my projects. Right now it exports to a 19mb *.msh file, so feedback (positive or negative) is useful to see if it would be worth creating a vessel out of this for orbiter 2010. Wireframe view of the x-y plane...

I'm sure there's someone else out there more qualified to respond to this than me, but just thought I'd post this. - Based on my skim of the article: to get the coordinates (alpha and delta, or whatever) presumably all you need to do is inverse tan and sin for the respective equations. -...

I'm a bit late I guess. Thanks for the link though.

Spacecraft3.dll already has a lot of useful assignments for thrust, aerodynamics, etc. Any thoughts on the addition of assignment variables that scale thrust and/or fuel efficiency according to atmospheric density (or something similar)? Or would a custom script be more appropriate for something...

Hi, this is my first published orbiter add-on. I've been practicing with blender for the past few weeks and thought I would share this spacecraft3 vessel with anyone that might be interested. Comments/responses (positive, negative, whatever) are appreciated. :cheers: Description and download...

Tried to upload it somewhere else, but having issues there too, so it's definitely on my end. Thanks for the help though.
