- DESCRIPTION
-
- Fighter Duel Pro Flight Recorder is the first interactive motion path
- generator. Flight Recorder retains all the breakthrough features of
- the Fighter Duel World War II flight simulator series, while adding the
- ability to create realistic and complex object motion paths for use in
- NewTek's Lightwave 3D software.
-
- One of the most difficult and time consuming aspects of 3D animation is
- motion. FDPro Flight Recorder replaces the tedious methoud of hand
- plotting flying motion paths with a flight simulator you control.
- Flight Recorder records the flight path of up to three (3) aircraft
- engaged in maneuvers or dogfighting. Positional information has a
- resolution of 30 frames per second. Motion paths may then be imported
- into Lightwave 3D to accurately animate flying objects, the camera
- viewpoint, aircraft, spacecraft, flying logos, etc.......
-
- You may fly solo against computer controlled opponents or interactively
- with another person via modem or null modem cable.
-
- FDPro Flight Recorder also has the ability to simultaneously generate
- Fighter Duel Pro Demo Reels that can be used to review your solo flights
-
-
- SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS
-
- FDPro Flight Recorder will run on any Amiga with 3 megs of RAM and
