[MSFS2020] Posky Flight Model Test

[Christian Wiegand]

Hi Jermaine,

also interesting to read what your focus is on.

I have never created a 3D model but I am absolutely positive that the community will develop something outstanding here.

Absolutely looking forward for the progress.

Thank you all
Christian

Hi Christian,

Like you I have quite a big wishlist for an external model 747 for PSX and MSFS2020. Again, whilst I understand that most won't care much about an external model, I use my sim for something slightly different which includes a bit of content creation 

As for the model, I've reached out the the owner of the Posky Flight model to ask permission to modify his aircraft but, he instead suggested that I create my own model from scratch. That's quite a big undertaking from someone like me who has no 3D modelling experience  He has been very helpful at getting me some crucial documentation and pictures though and I'm sure he'll be a good resource.

I'll keep everyone posted on any progress being made but I don't expect it to be a quick process.

Hi Jermaine,

I just bought WidePSX from Jean-Philippe and learned that you are working on an external
744 for the use in MSFS together with PSX.

Very nice news indeed.

I'd like to pass my wishlist here. Not sure if everything may be possible to achieve but one can dream, maybe?

- would be nice to have all external lights working by using the respective switch in PSX. Jean-Philippe also mentioned that he will do his best for widePSX 2.5 for that.

- would be nice to see all separate variants: RR/PW/GE, freighter, combi, pax, domestic (if there is an open 3D model for all of them available. I learned that the old posky 747 should have them all?

- would be nice to use as much liveries as possible. I know still uncertain on how to use the old posky liveries in MSFS.

- would be great to see the doors open as they do in PSX especially the cargo doors/nose and side cargo doors on the freighter

Again, just dreaming. 

And very excited to see what the future brings.

Best regards
Christian
