-new better panel
-added lights and made them switchable
-doors can be open now (pick animation)
-added some liveries by Brett Harrison
-added paintkit by Brett Harrison
-converted liveries to png
-replaced radio stack with 3d-radios, DME and marker-lights yet missing
-minor bugfixes
-added glass shader with fresnel effect

A big step at bringing the default aircraft into the state it actually
deserves.
Features:
- new, accurate exterior modell, modelled with original 3-views by Cessna
- textures with shadow shading
- livery changing sytem over mp
- immatriculation over mp
- glass shader with fresnel effect
- nearly complete 3d-panel
Known Bugs:
- Radio_Stack shines through the fuselage. New 3d radio_stack has yet to be done.
To-Do:
- Suction-Instrument
- Interior with much more details and painting
- Radio_stack
- doors openable
- lights
- fully animation of the gear
- failure system by Erobo
This is a patch to the c172p fdm to add pointmasses for all four
occupant positions and baggage. The X locations were taken from the
c172 type certificate 3A12 dated September 15, 1998. As the new
pointmasses have a weight of 0 they will not affect the current model,
however we are extending the FlightGear weight and balance dialog for
JSBSim and the pointmasses have to be defined.
- Automatic pitch trim (use autopilot/KAP140/settings/auto-pitch-trim to turn
on/off)
- Aural altitude alerter. Uses the same sound file as the stall warning.
- Replace custom flasher routines with nasal aircraft.light objects.
- Cleanup.
Changes:
1. remove typo from all the /Systems/KAP140.xml files
2. changes to put radio_stack in Instruments-3d
3. Add "pick" to vor, alt, hi, in Instruments-3d
4. changes to pa24-250 and pa28-161 to use 2 and 3.
5. add "pick" and "2d text in window" in 3d OAT in pa24-250
"This patch allows all the AC using the kap140 to use one kap140.nas
which includes Roy's move to "bool" values as well as the check for
power used by the pa24-250." (dp)
I put 3 patches and a sound file in this tar. The c172p... patch
removes an unnecessary patch I submitted to the c172p. It has no affect
on performance. The Instruments-3d... patch adds a working skid ball to
the tc and switches the vor xmls to using params so it is easier to
edit. It also constrains the glide-slope needle to -32 to 32 degrees.
The pa24-250... patch fixes an edit error (corrects a misnamed switch
"click", no change in performance) and adds a "squish" sound to the
primer pump action.
feature I added to the navcom-kx155.xml and the dme.xml in the
Instruments folder. I wanted to leave the frequencies, etc. on these
dark until there was voltage applied to
/systems/electrical/outputs/nav. This was accomplished by adding a
param and property alias pointing to the appropriate value. Since the
c172p "always" applies 28 volts, this made no change in the c172p, but
allowed me to model the avionics master and battery master realisticly
in pa24-electrical.nas. I put in comments explaining this at the change
points.
There is a useful "help > aircraft help" that walks you through the
start procedure and lists the key bindings as well as the key to "light
up" the hot spots.
