OK. ... we all have to manage our time.
But I don't see how your time management effects me in explaining different fdm modelling techniques.
Unless you're say.... 'well that method quadruples my workload and I don't have the time, whereas doing it a different way I can achieve all the fdm upgrades I want to do'
And that is your choice...
But maybe I'm looking for people who do have the time, the desire to do things slightly differently.
I'm a professional 3d modeler, but I don't do 3d in FG....
Why because flight sImming is a hobby and doing my day job in my hobby would be plain daft. But more importantly I do flight models because the present quality isn't high enough compared to other parts of the sim.
I could knock out planes in a fraction of the time of other people.... but what's the point if the fdm is just a generic marshmallow ride ?
I suppose I could bask in the appreciative WTG's I'd get when people see my model... but I think that's a bit shallow.
My goal is a team of fdm'ers, they don't have to be doing fdm's in my style, but we do have to talking and sharing ideas and techniques. ... helping out each other where needed.
Talking flight modelling without it turning into a dick measuring contest, being deliberately ignored, or another person having their nose put out when questioned as it does over on FG forum is a start.
Please don't take what I'm saying the wrong way... I'm not trying to take chunks out of ya.
