Boeing 787-8

Post by CngDelta757 » 24 Jun 2010, 02:58

Hey Everybody, Today I decided to make a 787-8! While Camsim's looks like crap, and Hiroshi has not poked the 787 for 5 months, It looks like I have to do something! :roll: So I will post previews and updates in the future (if you and I are lucky if everything goes as planed, there will be a VC & Cabin! "Beat that Hiroshi")

you have alot of useless polygons there... from about the "e" in Boeing all the way back to the wingtip is useless (talking about with the fuselage). You could get away with maybe 2-4 sections there total .

Michael Jackson's nose looked better than that! lol

(sorry too soon?)

but in all seriousness.

You need to collapse all of the vertices in the tip of the nose to one and then make the nose from that like so:

Hiroshi has worked on it in the background. But when you have two other types being made (747-8 and 767v5) its not that high on the priority list. The 767v5 also has over 20 different versions for the -300 alone plus you have the -200 and -400 so he has a lot too do.

keep it up though. You will get it there in time.

Hiroshi could make much better aircraft if he wouldn't be limited due to FS9. He should start focussing more on FSX IMO. Anyway, good luck with your B787-800!
