How about posting the "Native" file (Pro/E - SW) too.

I'll try and get the new "wing-loft" file posted later today or tomorrow

.

I think I'm gonna make a scratch-build outta this one, an ME 309... still working on the CAD model, it needs some minor adjustments, then it's time to slice & dice

.

I know these are not the actual airplane but here is some of the things I am doing with solid works, the cylinder for the T 34 c retracts and the partially built retract for the same airplane

Nice!

Spooky · 02-13-2009, 03:25 PM

Nice work forgues, did you animate the cylinder and retract assemblies?
If you did, post up an E-drawing for us to check out.

Why does the far-side wing always looks bigger on Solidworks?

If you turn on "perspective view" in SW, it takes care of that, which I didn't use on those pics.

I tried the zip file and it didn't work...that's weird.
Anyway, maybe try saving & uploading the E-drawing as a ".exe" file (with viewer), and not zipped, worth a shot.
Also, if your using SW '07-'09, you can set the assembly in motion and record it as a ".mov" (movie) file from inside SW. (Scratch last comment if you've done it already)

??? Who's Sleepy???

Looks like it would be easy enough in SoildEdge. I've have to give it a try.

I have 2007 but no where to be found ".mov"

I think it's called a "motion study", I can't remember, It's been a few months since using '07-'08, (last job, last year)... I'm using SW '04 on my home PC now... GRRRRR, I got spoiled by the those enhancements. Maybe do a search in the Help section for motion & animation, I'm sure it's there under something.... Damn short-term memory

I got the zipped file, but there is no file extension to it. What type was it ?
