Passengers

A place to converse about the general aspects of flight simulation in New Zealand

Had a lot of fun with a newly installed Carenado C206 with extra repaints. A nice feature is the two pilots whose heads turn when you taxi. It got me wondering if there are any downloads anywhere (not found any yet) that allow you to insert virtual passengers in the cabin. Everytime I pan around the cabin, it is full of empty seats. It would be nice to add in Jennifer Lopez or a few other passengers to fill the empty seats....anybody know of any downloads to install passengers........

Looking to change the computer as well, and trying to get the budget approved by she who must be obeyed. I believe that getting it through the US senate would be easier. Thought that I had made a decision, then saw the first quad core processors being advertised, so now back to the budget committee to see if she will approve the extra.

smooth landings

As far as i know there is no way to put extra models into a vc in fs9 ,but in saying that ive heared that fsx has two models for one plane,, one is the plane itself and the other is a vc ,so its possible youd be able to do its mod if you knew if and how this works within fsx ,also i heard you could pretty much mod anything on to the side of choppers and stuff ...
but i could be wrong and asure you if i am someone will point it out here on nzff

Probably not exactly what you're after but it could be a starting point.

Rob Finney created a set of addon pilot's and co pilots for Jordan Moore's 412. They are available from here at Hovercontrol.

As I say probably not exactly a solution for your C206 but it proves that it could be done.
Testers are born to fiddle. What does this button do? Oh! Never mind.....

The only aircraft I know of with passengers in the visual model are the Just Flight Flying Club aircraft. Using the Aeroload utility, each aircraft comes with a different .mdl file depending on how many PAX you want to load - with appropriate changes in weight and handling.

yeah so you would need the source files "max models" and mod them buy adding clone passengers or new models of hot chicks etc ...i think this would be the case with the hovercontrol 412 as it is a open source design and freely availble to designers for mods ,with the 206 its owned buy them and they would never realease the source files ,
In fsx it would only be default a/c that i think that have source files that youd be able to even try this mod within the vc model file etc... lost yet i am laugh.gif
anyway hope this helps

Would be prety neat, but I think it wouldn't be so great perforamce wise of course. All those extra moving models.

I doubt youd be able to do it unless you knew how to make VCs, they aren't sort of just put in there as an extra, they are part of the model, as you will see the textures will be found in the tecture folder along with everything else.

Although, if you can do it, I have a couple hundred free seats in my 763. biggrin.gif

Marcel Kuhnt's excellent Islander modelhas a panel button so you can select how many pax appear.
It's still a great model.

Heya, do you use FSPassengers? This is a awesome addon to mimmick passanger flights. You can start from scratch and build up a whole fleet of aircraft. Anyway, it doesn't add passengers to planes but it deffiently gives you the sense that you have people in the back.

that is just one reason i don't use fsx, i can't use FSPassengers with it. it doesn't add the visual people in the back, but it adds soo much realism to your flights, every flight i do i use FSPassengere
