=== Fallback models for MP === | |||
Stuart implemented a fallback model for MP aircraft. Aircraft can now set a /sim/model/fallback-model-index property that is transmitted over the MP network. Receiving clients use this as an index into AI/Aircraft/fallback_models.xml to determine a model to use if the model path (/sim/model/path) cannot be found under Aircraft or AI/Aircraft. This allows aircraft developers to identify a suitable fallback model to be used for those who do not have their aircraft installed. Stuart populated the current fallback_models.xml file with all the aircraft in AI/Aircraft (selecting a single livery for each aircraft). If other aircraft models are added to AI/Aircraft they can easily be added to the file, as it's split into sections. More information can be found at [[MP_Fallback_models]]. | |||
