Cargo Flights

[United844]

Just a suggestion for the next FSP version you guys should upgrade the cargo flights like in a cargo plane there are no passenger seats,
ive done a couple of cargo flights and i thougt if i put no passengers there would be more room for the cargo but stays the same so i
think you guys should make a better cargo system no passengers more cargo room just an idea i thught would be good. [img]

it's already here, it's just a matter to have the right payload model... you can transform any aircraft
in cargo transporter.

See there is some cargo version made:

Basically ou just need to define a payload model without passengers loading point and with big
weight for cargo.

You can also edit ANY existing payload model, do the change and save it with the same name
followed by " (cargo)" keyword (one space before "(cargo)". this payload will now be available
in the drop box of the payload loader just after your usuall "pax" payload model.

Practically:

Say you fly with the 747-400, you got usually this payload model loaded:



This payload model is called "747-400.ini" in the payload_model folder. edit it with the
payload editor, remove pax, increase cargo capacity and save it with this new name
"747-400 (cargo).ini" it will now be available in the top left drop box of FsPax payload dialog.

Et voila, 747-400 cargo model... now to make it even nicer you can design a new image for this
payload model and assign the new image for the "747-400 (cargo).ini" payload model in the
payload model editor.


By default FsP have a 737-400 cargo version, see how it is selected in the drop box "payload model"




Here a tutorial about payload model, how to make image, edit them etc etc:
