777-200LR Worldliner DOWNLOAD

[Andino]

I have done this plane mostly for myself to fly it. But there are other people (777-200 and 777-300 creators) who deserve all the credits. Nevertheless, I like the minor changes and combinations I have done, and I would like to share them:

Hi there!
It has been already stated on the forums, somewhere, that the FDM of the 772ER really reflects the 772LR characteristics.
So if that is the case, you will only need to edit the FDM a tiny bit and add the raked wingtips onto the wings. Which is lucky for you.

[Andino]

Thank you Muffinman.

I have the impression that the standard ER, although similar to the LR, is a bit different. The LR has 3 more optional tanks, a more efficient engine system, and so the range is bigger, more than 9.000 nm i think. I have to check all this.

There is a brazilian version of this plane.

It is here: http://wiki.flightgear.org/Boeing_777-200LR

It is a nice plane, but there are things that I don't like:

1. You have to install the plane in a folder called 777-200. This means you have to uninstall the default 777-200.
2. I am not able to see the cockpit correctly in Linux FG 2.4.0 and 2.5.0 (git).

When I saw this version (yesterday), I had already done the model, taking it from the standard 777-200ER and from the 777-300 (the end of the wings).

I will continue working in a new version of the 777-200LR, if nobody is against it.

lol

your supposed to merge the files (copy the files not folders from the download and place them in the locations like the other file)

if you don't like it go ahead and keep making yours you might even make it better =)

Not exactly merging, because the new folder has the two planes. Yes, you can overwrite or simply delete the older folder. The problem is that, if you like your version of the 777-200ER (you have for example done some little changes in it), or you have a more recent version, you will have some difficulties to keep both. It is possible, but a bit annoying.

Apart from that, the 777-200LR has 3 optional tanks. It would be nice to include them.

An alternative could be to just add a folder under data>Aircraft called, say "777-200LR" place the files into there and amend the directories contained within the files. (this may be time consuming, but really only one person would need to do it, and then distribute.

Cheers

Actually I plan to add 777-300ER to current 777-200 and the folder name will be changed to 777.
I've already done and ready to upload but waiting for the 2.6.0 release since I don't want to add huge change befoe release.
So can't you wait for the 2.6.0 release and 2.7.0 branch ready?

Yes, that is the idea. And also make some other changes. I like, for example, the changes in the flightdeck, which were done for the 777-300.I also like Cabin Announcements and Airport Operantions, such as the ones you see in the old 340-600, and also here: http://www.flightgear.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=12007.

Something I don't like in the new 777-200ERs is that you cannot see the logo light without material shaders, which consume much framerate. I would like to use the system in the old 777-200ERs and in the 777-300, where you can easily see the logo light. At the same time, I would like to keep the best landing linghts of the new 777-200ERs.

I don't like the more complicated front rear of recent 777-200ERs. Tiller steering should be incorporated, but the rudder also kept simple.

[Andino]

Well, I have done something. In the first post is the download link.

I am sharing this little work I have done during the last days of my holidays. So people can check it. But I have no problems if anybody decides to continue the work, or work together. I do it for fun. If you want to include it in other distribution is ok. I think all is GNU.

Is it possible to change the stairs in airport operations?

Great plane, by the way!

[Andino]

I have changed the download link in the first post (megaupload is closed now... although my files there were all legal )

[UKRAINE]

Good plane, but unfortunately
when i start up manually, i do everything correctly but the red levers for engine start up do not work no matter how i click on them.
Help will be appreciated

[Andino]

Sorry for the delay in answering. I have been away from FG for several months.

The start works this way (simplifyed):

- At the left side of the overhead panel: Turn on Batery, Apu Gen and turn right the white knob close to it.
- At the left side of the overhead panel: Turn on left tie, right tie, Lmain, Rmain.
- More to the right, nearly at the center of the overhead panel: Turn on the four Hydraulic buttons.
- More to the right, at the center of the overhead panel: turn on the eight fuel buttons (not the fuel jettison!!!!!).
- Wait a bit. At the center of the overhead panel, over the fuel jettison: Then turn left the two white knobs.
- The engines will start. After a while, turn off Batter, Apu Gen, and turn left the white knob close to it (whit the mouse center button).

It should work.
