Hi,
is the 787-8 published under GPL?
I'm asking because I'd like to use it as the basis for a student research project.

To an engineer, it's twice the size it needs to be.

Where can I find liveries for the project dreamliner 787?
I tried this http://liveries.flightgear.org/aircraft.php but they don't work because I can't see any of the cabin windows.

I found that the project dreamliner's liveries have to include the windows with them, unlike other models.
So... Where can I find those liveries?

I'm away from my FG machine for a while so I can't test. I vaguely remember enabling the lights from within the 787-8/Aircraft lights menu worked for me. Have you tried that?

Hi, I've noticed that the wingflexer makes the 787 "flap" its wings in a creepy way for a few seconds after startup.
In case you experienced the same, here's a workaround you can put in 787-8/Nasal/systems.nas or so:
Code: Select all
# wingflexer init delay to prevent wings from flapping at startup
# multiplies the D parameter by 10 and resets it after 'init_delay' seconds
init_delay = 14.0;
D_param_0 = getprop('/sim/systems/wingflexer/params/D');
var D_param_1 = 10 * D_param_0;
setprop('/sim/systems/wingflexer/params/D',D_param_1);
set_wingflex_param = func{
    setprop('/sim/systems/wingflexer/params/D',D_param_0);
    logprint(3,'wingflex parameter D set to');
    logprint(3,D_param_0);
}
var wingflex_timer = maketimer(init_delay, func{set_wingflex_param();});
wingflex_timer.singleShot = 1;
wingflex_timer.start();

To a pessimist, the glass is half empty.
To an engineer, it's twice the size it needs to be.

787 needs a lot of work on the autopilot,sound. . .wingflex is not that important.

It needs a major overhaul.

Berkut, get your hands dirty on whatever you feel is important to you, and then share your work with us. But it's not up to you to decide what's important to others.

Andreas, thanks for the patch. I was aware of the issue, and I will merge your patch into the repo.

Berkut, you could be a little more polite. It won't hurt you

:roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

See viewtopic.php?f=18&t=28014&p=264710#p264710

Personally, the sounds could be louder. But the autopilot works perfectly fine, including working VNAV and a functional CDU.
It is nearly equal to the A330's CDU.

Berkut, I don't know about the other issues because I'm only using the outside model and the fdm as the basis for a university project. And from that perspective, the flapping wings issue clearly has the highest priority.

radi: Cool! I'm glad you can use the patch, but be aware that I'm not very experienced in Nasal scripting.
