Re: My First Fighter...Again...
I seem to have hit a MAJOR roadblock in importing this model into FS2...  I am using a tutorial that explains how to convert a Rhino file into *.dxf which can then be moved into TrueSpace.  Only problem is that the tutorial calls for TrueSpace5.  Apparently one of the tools I need to make this model work is in TS5, but not TS3.2.  It's called Invert Normals, I believe.  I need that tool, because when you import the *.dxf into TS, it inverts all the normal surfaces.  The tool is needed to unflip them.  Since I don't have TS5, can someone give me some advice on how to get around this huge stumbling block?  (I did manage to get a full version of Rhino from my school, at least...)
