Mod Request - Spinning Prop with some cross section body - Alan - 06.03.2009

Hey Texture modders

Is it not possible to create a texture for the spinning prop that will give it some "body" when viewed from the side.

It looks a little odd when the slow turning start-up prop suddenly becomes a paper thin prop (when viewed from the side) once the engine starts :?:

A beefier look of the spinning prop, especially in the area where the prop enters the spinner would look cool .

well, it has nothing to do with propeller texture to do! it is the 3d model (PropRot1_D0.msh file ) of spinning propeller which the texture applies over it, must be changed (I'm not 3d modeler) and i don't think it's a easy task to do for any 3d modeler! But maybe someone could give some more rotation speed to the propeller and only in one direction, not as unreal in the sim when you increasing or decreasing the throttle the rotations direction of propeller will changes too for some moment ( spinning forward or backwards) until it begins to rotate in one direction, or in full throttle in some aircrafts the propeller doesn't rotate at all (I know in reality it seems the propeller staying still in very high speeds but in reality you see flickering effect over spinning propeller too that misses in the il2).
