[SOLVED] 777 gear animation over MP

Postby KL-666 » Sat May 28, 2016 12:26 am

Sadly in the latest version of 777 the gear animation on touchdown over MP is gone. Gear stays in droop position on the ground, as if still in the air. I compared the latest 777 with someone else, also with the latest from the flightgear aircraft download. We both see each others gear permanent in "air" position, so drooping into the ground at the back.

Kind regards, Vincent

Sorry, as in "gear retracted", you mean?

Thanks Vincent
Do you and your friend mind to test this version and let us know if it works as expected:

If we gave everybody in the World free software today, but we failed to teach them about the four freedoms, five years from now, would they still have it?

I already tried Hyde's dev version, and it is ok. So i think fgmembers should just wait for the update from his repo? Anyway, thanks for the effort.

Kind regards, Vincent

It's because the gears are 0-8 or so, and only 0-4 go thru MP. Change the order, or use other mp floats, and it will work fine.

Well, if you use matching 777 versions on both sides, it is corrected. Older versions do not match newer ones.

Kind regards, Vincent

I have the same issue with the MD-11. I fixed the thrust reverser and center gear ages ago, and some people like KL-666 have the old one, and don't see it.
