@MR VLAK mooi man. scale of the plane and ballon to earth ratio might mislead 😉

2018-08-10 19:08:56 UTC  

yeah I need you guys to see them. If i scale them its almost just a dot

2018-08-10 19:09:14 UTC  

But yeah that could be misleading sorry

2018-08-10 19:11:38 UTC  

lol well, let's import it into UE4? create a something that more interactive lol

2018-08-10 19:12:07 UTC  

why not!

2018-08-10 19:12:21 UTC  

what format you need?

2018-08-10 19:12:59 UTC  

let me see, i think UE4 can import cad files, but let me fire it up and have a look quick

2018-08-10 19:14:27 UTC  

I can do these straight out of Sketchup

2018-08-10 19:16:12 UTC  

I will fix the scale of the plane and balloon for your import

2018-08-10 19:17:25 UTC  

Okay, let me get this started up quick

2018-08-10 19:19:48 UTC  

thats a nice range of formats, maybe export to fbx, i know that works, 3ds should work as well i believe

2018-08-10 19:21:52 UTC  

sweet let me scale them. I am going to remove measurements and refrence lines?

2018-08-10 19:23:53 UTC  

If i scale that plane you will never find it. lol

2018-08-10 19:23:54 UTC  

Just make sure they are scaled accurately as they should be, and then can work with that... but it needs to be in line with UE4 units, let me get the specs for you

2018-08-10 19:24:18 UTC  

its wing span is 10m so in the model it is only 10mm

2018-08-10 19:24:28 UTC  

1 unit = 1cm

2018-08-10 19:24:57 UTC  

it will work

2018-08-10 19:25:06 UTC  

yeah just keep it in proportion and let me know, so that I can get the 0.27 hight correct

2018-08-10 19:25:45 UTC  

I changed that height to a higher elevation, max altitude of 4.5km

2018-08-10 19:26:07 UTC  

4.5km is 4500mm is 45cm

2018-08-10 19:26:37 UTC  

so in the engine the 45cm in my model will be 45units

2018-08-10 19:26:47 UTC  

okay sweet

2018-08-10 19:27:25 UTC  

Good Luck finding the plane

2018-08-10 19:27:53 UTC  

lol

2018-08-10 19:28:05 UTC  

where you going to upload it?

2018-08-10 19:29:52 UTC  

I would actually like to purchase a package for UE4 to create planets and such, could be interesting... al though, there is that outerra engine that has earth in a 1 to 1 scale, but i think you will need to buy into it to get the cessna plane, could then just use it to fly up to desired altitudes and take screenshots

2018-08-10 19:31:55 UTC  

I will share it via Discord if size in below 8mb

2018-08-10 19:32:21 UTC  

yeah shouldnt be that big, unless it's highly detailed lol

2018-08-10 19:33:22 UTC  

the fbx is over that size. I will share gdrive link if the 3ds one doesnt work

2018-08-10 19:34:31 UTC  

@Sheamus you got it?

2018-08-10 19:34:54 UTC  

yeah going to load up quick

2018-08-10 19:36:07 UTC  

okay that doesnt seem to like it

2018-08-10 19:36:16 UTC  

want to try that with fbx maybe

2018-08-10 19:36:33 UTC  

also one item at a time instead of them all in one

2018-08-10 19:36:55 UTC  

ahh okay

2018-08-10 19:38:20 UTC  

@MR VLAK that is a pretty good illustration. The horizon lvl with wing doesn't seem to be from a lvl perspective. But I note the elevation matching eye lvl. This would make a good video from a POV. 🤔

2018-08-10 19:43:54 UTC  

@MrE911 yeah its interesting stuff

2018-08-10 19:47:09 UTC  

jis dis massive. moes shrink na 0.0001 op xyz net om te kan werk met dit

2018-08-10 19:49:42 UTC  

lol

2018-08-10 19:50:12 UTC  

so its in?

2018-08-10 19:50:21 UTC  

Yes, jy al plane en ballon gedoen?
