Hallo Gents,
i would  like to realize damaged propellers effect when the plane has a hard landing or impacts against an obstacle



I have searched inside stock planes folders but i have not found any related mesh.
So how it i possible to realize this effect?

Best regards.

Planes already suffer bent prop blades when one of the prop hooks specified in the relevant mesh touches a surface or object. As long as the plane doesn't explode  , you should be seeing this.

Can you provide an example of an event where this is clearly not occurring?

Hallo,
here it is an example



The prop has hooks on extremities




but nothing happens

what i have made wrong?

Best regards

Hi, you need to knew that propeller is made from 3 different meshes, example: Prop1_D0 + Prop1_D1(hidden, visible when damaged) + PropRot1_D0(hidden, visible when moving)



Its hierarchy is:

[Prop1_D0]
Mesh Prop1_D0
Parent Engine1_D0
Separable
Attaching -1 0 0 0 -1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0
[Prop1_D1]
Mesh Prop1_D1
Parent Prop1_D0
Separable
Hidden
Attaching 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0
[PropRot1_D0]
Mesh PropRot1_D0
Parent Prop1_D0
Hidden
Attaching 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0

What you need is a mesh for damaged prop with bent/broken (wooden prop) blades.

Hallo.
Thanks.
I have to create a bent prop.
I will try.
Best regards.

It might be the case that if the plane breaks up before the prop itself has incurred damage, anything happening to the prop thereafter is not taken into consideration as regards applying damage...?

Hallo SAS~Loku
what do You think about this my first attempt?



It remains an issue; i mean the spinners continue to rotate.

WxTech,
sorry, but  i do not understand your hint.

In addition,
when a propellers han been bent it will cross the other one and it should be happen that the propellers crash.
But i have no idea how realize this result.

you can change color on the bended propeler part by changing only few pixel on the skin of some plane , like you can see on my last 109 skins dowload  when you hit the ground propeler tips bend and change from black to grey .
      here you can find a topic about it    https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,49896.msg544659.html#msg544659

Hallo VonWaffen.
I will do, It is easy.
I wuold like to obtain also to stop rotation but I suppose it wuold be an FM work.
Thanks.

[VonWaffen]

it s only on few orignale game plane and you will need to us panel finder to located them , as it s only few pixel on the blank skins so be prepare to belly landing lot of them
