Hello all AFS users,I am kinda bored so just to pass time I want to make a 737-700 or 777-200 out of the default AFS aircraft,only issue is the only aircraft that shows in the SDK file is the DR400 please help me to get the other aircraft if able!
Aerofly Aircraft SDK How do I use it?

hi, buddy. I'm very glad that you can do something new for AF and I'm also very willing to provide you with tutorials on the SDK. Because I gradually understood how the aircraft sdk works with my own efforts and the help of others. However, as far as I know, you can only create your own aircraft, not import the official aircraft to make changes. This means you need to build the aircraft model yourself in blender. dr400 is just an example to help you understand the structure of the aircraft folder

As the 737 is derived from a bought in 737-200, IPACS must be sitting on a lot of the work needed to recreate the -200. The cockpit looks exactly like a late autopilot -200 just with the (should have been deleted) EPR gauge moved down one place.
The 737 series has physical structure evolutionary commonality with the 707, 720 and 727 Boeings if there was ever a desire to produce retro airliners.

Just having the fuselage shape only reduces the amount of work by 5-10%. The majority of work goes into the cockpit model and details.

Oh! Building an aircraft, these are major leagues to me! Thanks for your interest in trying to create an aircraft for the sim.

In the tmvector2d lines of the sound objects, there are values written like "(10.0 1.0)". Is the 2nd field's maximum value 1.0 for volume?

It's just a linear interpolation and you can ramp it up to arbitrary values. But if you use the mapping for a sound volume input then the max volume is clamped at 100% in the end, so beyond a certain value it's no longer getting any louder. Because we have 3D sounds now and the distance from the camera to the sound also reduces the sound volume the max volume is not fixed as such. If you use a 5.0 for the second value the engine sound may still get louder in the cockpit, where the distance to the sound source is large. But in the passenger cabin you may not notice any volume increase after 1.5 or so.
