    FlyByWire hat kürzlich ein neues Video auf ihrem YouTube-Kanal veröffentlicht, in dem Mike, der leitende Texturkünstler des A380X-Projekts, zu sehen ist. In dem Video nimmt Mike die Zuschauer mit auf eine Tour durch die detaillierte Arbeit, die in die Erstellung eines 3D-Modells und hochauflösender Texturen für das Flugzeug eingeflossen ist. Mike hebt die Detailgenauigkeit des A380X-Projekts hervor und bezeichnet sie als "unübertroffen". In früheren Berichten wurde enthüllt, dass die visuelle Gestaltung des A32NX-Projekts zugunsten der A380X in den Hintergrund getreten ist, aber dieses Video gibt einen ersten Blick auf den aufregenden neuen Freeware-Jet, der in den Microsoft Flight Simulator aufgenommen werden soll.

    Das Video beginnt damit, dass Mike die Entscheidung des Teams erläutert, eine 1:1-Auflösung im Cockpit anzustreben. Das bedeutet, dass jede Oberfläche des Cockpits mit hochauflösenden Texturen versehen wird, was das Cockpit für den Benutzer noch realistischer macht. Mike erwähnt auch, dass das Team sichergestellt hat, dass die Auflösungsskala auf den UV-Maps bei jedem Texturset normalisiert ist.

    Mike erörtert dann den Prozess der Erstellung des 3D-Modells des Cockpits mit der Software Blender. Die Modifikatoren von Blender ermöglichten es den Designern, den Knöpfen und Reglern einheitliche Kurven hinzuzufügen, was zu einem Cockpit führte, das in seiner Geometrie genauer ist. Mike erwähnt zum Beispiel, dass der Blendschutz auf der linken und rechten Seite leicht unterschiedlich gekrümmt ist.

    Mike stellt auch die Texturen des A380X vor und bezeichnet sie als seine bisher beste Arbeit. Er hat mehr als 3000 Stunden an dem Projekt gearbeitet, und die Mühe zeigt sich im Detailgrad der Texturen. Die Texturen bestehen nicht aus einem einzigen Bild, sondern aus mehreren Schichten, die ein Gefühl von Tiefe und Abnutzung vermitteln. Im Microsoft Flight Simulator SDK werden diese Ebenen in Kanälen kompiliert, darunter der Ambient Occlusion-Kanal, der bestimmt, wie das Licht mit den Texturen interagiert, und der Rauheitskanal, der die Abnutzung anzeigt.

    Mike teilt auch einige der Referenzfotos mit, die das Team für die Zusammenstellung der 45 Megapixel großen Texturen verwendet hat. Er verrät, dass FlyByWire auf Wunsch der Community auch ein Texturset für einen fabrikneuen A380 erstellt hat. Das Äußere des A380X hat den gleichen Detailgrad wie das Innere, mit Triebwerkswackeln und physikalisch simulierten Flugkontrollen.

    Abschließend ruft Mike alle, die Erfahrung mit der Modellierung haben, dazu auf, sich dem FlyByWire-Team anzuschließen und ihre Fähigkeiten in das Projekt einzubringen. Er erwähnt, dass das Jahr 2023 ein Jahr voller spannender Entwicklungen für das A380X-Projekt sein wird.

    good but it better not be one of those planes where u have to calibrate the throttle cus its really fiddly to do and on the a32nx the throttle calibration doesnt work and when i put it to climb mode it bassicly jumps all the way to 100 and there is no way to change it i have looked everywhere on the ipad in the msfs settings and i cant see anything.

    over 3 years ago

    It's incredibly easy. Just put the throttle where you want your "detents" to be, click the "climb" or "Idle" etc. For throttle one and two and viola.

    over 3 years ago

    Custom throttle calibration will be pretty much a requirement in airbus planes with throttle detents. Else it becomes difficult to support different hardware quadrants. There's a very high possibility that it will be in this plane as well. Fenix, a32nx, crj all these planes have throttle calibration step. Maybe it can have a good default so throttle calibration is not mandatory.

    I mean you can always donate if you want to support them

    Does anyone know why they stopped releasing updates for the A32NX completely?Does this mean that we are close to A380's release?

    Probably you are looking on the wrong branch. I don't know which branch is, but I am sure that master branch is not the branch you are looking for.

    Not to jump the gun early, but, if this truly is going to be as in depth and detailed as they're showing; this should serve as a notice to Payware Developers in particular. I don't mind paying for aircraft, especially when it's as well made as, say, PMDG, however. A project like this could potentially show the Sim Market that paying even 30 bucks for something like VirtualCol or Breedok, CSim, ect, is completely unthinkable. The fact that a Freeware Project (of course boosted by it's supporters) could potentially release something this well made for Free for mass consumption should put the former out of business.
    Not to demand that every single Aircraft should be free, but the prices for some definitely need major adjustment. Of course, that's if this Project turns out to be as excellent as they say.
    Hoping for the best, this shit looks dope as hell my dudes. 💙

    First of all... thank you for your Work. It is amazing! We all know what a lot Hours, Days and so on you spend of your free Time. You make a dream come true for a many many many Flightsimmers. Keep your passion!!! and by the way i think it´s not a good idea to release it for free but it´s your thing. It`ll be a great Thing. Thanks FBW-Team. All your Projects has and will change History of the MSFS. Keep going.

    Yes, what you're looking at is the stable branch. Our development and experimental versions get regular updates.

    Just follow the guide and you're all set. Read it carefully and don't skip anything.This has worked thousands of times for others users - there is no known issue with calibration.

    Looking forward to your contributing PRs to speed things up. :)Btw. where did you get your data? How did you measure the 5fps? If you have good data it should be easy to improve or did you just do an unfaithful guess?

    as Mike mentioned, during his free time. Free mods like this requires a day job, obviously a non-modder would not know that and the time it takes to develop something.

    MUST be Free!!!

    Why can't it be released first and then updated continuously?

    就不能先发布了,有错误在更新吗

    Is there an official release date yet

    over 3 years ago

    With all due respect to the developer , announcing something years before it release date leaves bad test in the mouth and lots of frustration !!. Usually such announcements are for big events such as Olympics or world cup. 🙃

    Yeah, I made the unfourtunate mistake of getting the bredok 737M. PMDG hadn't even realeased their 737s yet. Was hoping that i could get a nice 737. Doesn't even work anyore cuz of HD 787.
