Default Re: RAF SAR Sea King

Hi Andy, all Flightgear animations are done through XML files. What we do or the animator himself (I can't do it to save my life) is use co-ordinates from the objects and revolves them around the XYZ axis.

It's quite tedious sometimes and to see how the animation works you have to load FG test it, see how it looks and tweak it if needs be. With this one we are "hopefully" going to have every button clickable and to place them again it's through XML and to say that there maybe some 300+ buttons it's going to be a daunting task but the person who does it enjoys it.....I think I have the easiest task of modelling
