Nieucross - Thanks! So people don't get confused, videos I'm posting now are from the un-modded "Pacific Fighters" 4.12.
Hydraulics on landing gear: It's stock for the game on this plane..which is a beast to fly and lands like a rocket because of it's weight.
I think the landing gear is acting that way because I created my own landing strip with grass runways and put it on uneven ground..for some reason the landing gear reacts to the surface under the runway but doesn't crash because there's a runway object there - happy accident.
The music: Once I have all my video rushes and transitions with titles put together,
1. I go into the available music tracks on the You Tube editor,
2. search for one that is a comparable length to my video - based on genre of course - like "adventure" or something.
3. go through them quickly and listen to the openings and closings - if it works I drag and drop it to the vid - give it a flight-check and publish.
You sort of have to get used to the Youtube Video creative editor so you can can do your cutting room work in a hurry without too much deliberation..
As for me ..right now I'm worried that I have to get a better rig to handle all the stuff provided by the brilliant simmers here at SAS.
I mean..this is awesome.
Thanks again.
