Nice one U-S
I managed to get the Arado on water too but still had the prop running

Your getting there so keep going
Never thought about the 305

Nice.

bbw,
what type did you use? I tried the sea folder w/type 100 but it sat down in the water up to it's wings. type 305 is becoming my all purpose fix--subpen guns, parked planes, and who knows what's next--don't know if and what it's been used for before but sure am glad the devs included it.

To get the prop at "stand still" I had to combine it w/ the body in wings3d and export/import the combo as the body.

Ah I see
That was my next step - no need now :rotfl:
I kept it as the type it was but its a good idea to use the helicopter one as its not used anywhere else ingame

Looking good, you guys. Nice bit of eye candy, particularly the Arado, although it has always struck me that the floats are on the wrong way round!

The Walrus or Catalina might look good and if some enterprising aircraft modeller could give us a Dornier Do 18 or Blohm & Voss Bv 138 that would be even better!

Any takers????

Cheapskate,
check out the following link--CB..'s floating Sunderland(sp)

--that gave me the idea to try parking one on land.

Thanks for the link U-snafu.

CB's got some interesting stuff there which somehow I overlooked. Have d/l'd Sunderland and a couple of other things and will give them a go.

Thanks again!

Last of my playing with wings--put some wheels on the BF109--but as you can see, I havn't figured out UVmapping yet or textures:

Tried to use the "swordfish wheels"

Edit: wont' do to much more w/this for awhile. More important thing just popped up. Maybe when I pick it back up to learn the mapping/texturing-an "airport" terrain will be done--(but with serg's new mod and upcomonig GWX--it makes it almost moot--everyone will (myself included) be using the new planes and I wouln't dare try to hack up those.
