From the cockpit hier.him I have established the attachement entries...

Attaching 0 ? ? ? 0 ? ? ? 0 X Z Y

Where red is scaling factor for the following section. (As I understand it from other threads.)

With reference from the eye viewpoint in the cockpit. Positive numbers yeild a shift of the object.

X = LEFT
Z = TOWARD
Y = UP

I haven't been able to fathom what the green and blue figures do just yet. Other than some form of rotation center point and rotation angle, green looks to be rotation. Have you or anyone else got that far yet? Just looking to move a few instruments around to start with.



Taurus I am still learning this by trial and error myself. By adjusting the 5th number I was getting rotation in the yaw axis which is what I needed to clear the reticle. The 6th number seemed to produce rotation in the pitch axis. Also seemed like changing the number before X,Y and Z changed the aspect ratio of the object. I don't want to say more until I'm sure.

I was able to get the reticle clearance I wanted by making the following changes:

Original P47-D10
[Body]Mesh BodyParent _ROOT_
Attaching 0 1 0 -1 0 0 0 0 1 -0.82822 0.00974 0.47003

Modified for Reticle clearance
[Body]Mesh BodyParent _ROOT_
Attaching 0 1 0 -1 -.015 0.008 0 0 1 -0.82822 -.02174 0.50003

Of course after making this change the reticle position will need to be fixed as well.

I test flew the P47_D10 with this configuration and it felt right to me. Screen shots below,
