In a somewhat more sensible galaxy, ship designers realise that when your cockpit is out of line with the ship's centreline, you can get very dizzy while flying. And that everything looks cooler in black.
Controls
- Custom camera 1: Cockpit view (with high-visibility crosshair)
- Custom camera 2: Plasma cannon boresight view
- AG1: Warp drive
- AG2: High agility mode
- FireGuns: Fire plasma cannon
Notes
- The asymmetrical cockpit was left out intentionally.
- The turret is purely decorative, the plasma cannon is the only weapon on this build.

Nup, I’m currently commenting on my mobile and I’ll do that when I get home @SledDriver
@Spectre2520 Did you even run the installer? When you run it, you'll get a dialog box with a button "Select game to install to or uninstall from". Click that, browse to the location of your SimplePlanes.exe. It should be something like
C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\SimplePlanes\SimplePlanes.exe
Below the button, there are three options: Direct3D 9, Direct3D 10+, and OpenGL. Select OpenGL. That's it.
Again, where can I choose OpenGL during installation of the ReShade @SledDriver
@Spectre2520 A quick Google search would point you to the ReShade website. The download link is at the bottom. Choose OpenGL during installation.
Oh...I think I forgot to install reshape. My question is, where do I get the reshade and when did SledDriver industry exist? I thought it was SD Corp... @SledDriver
@Aarons123 One more thing: if you add any wings, they must have wingPhysicsEnabled="false". If you add any more engines, they must have powerMultiplier="0".
@Aarons123 Sure you can, all you need is a kit with all parts set to massScale=0 and calculateDrag=false.
@SledDriver thanks, I suppose I’ll upload it today as I can’t add anything
@Aarons123 Here you go. I've made it so at full throttle, your engines look like they normally would at 30% throttle.
This is very important: if you add any parts to this build, they must have massScale set to 0 and calculateDrag set to false, or flight handling will be degraded.
Hover, strafe ect
For its engines to look good, it has to fly at 30% throttle. I don’t know if that’s a problem but I assume you could just slap more engines into it
@Aarons123 OK, how do you want it to fly: like a regular airplane, or a spaceship that can hover, strafe, fly backwards, etc.)?
Thanks, here it is,

@Aarons123 Don't you know that at SledDriver Industries, we can get anything to fly, in five minutes or less? Share a link to your post and I'll get back to you with a perfectly flying version.
@SledDriver if you have the time, could you try to get one of my crafts to fly? I know you can somehow get really heavy and un aerodynamic ships to fly and my ship is heavy and, well it’s actually quite aerodynamic. I would prefer it be VTOL capable but it isn’t needed. Thanks if you can
@Spectre2520 I think you missed this part in my instructions:
So what I did was press that link in your bio, then it started downloading. I open up the downloaded file, then extract the fax file, that’s all it did and nothing popped up when I launched the game @SledDriver
@Spectre2520 Did you install Reshade first? Do the Reshade menu/messages/dialog show up when you launch the game?
So, after I extract the fx file. I just have to open the game? Nothing appeared... @SledDriver
Thanks, I didn’t mean by that lame, I meant by the file that has an icon of 3 books stacking @SledDriver
@Spectre2520 "Files" aren't lame. Would you prefer a 50 MB executable that does all kinds of stuff you don't know about?
First, install Reshade. Then, in your reshade-shaders\Shaders folder, extract the .fx file. Launch SP, Reshade should automatically list the shaders. Enable the one you want. The one I use is "OrangeBlueSaturated."
For the editor background, select the blue space background in skybox pack mod settings, then set the hue to 20, 40, 80.
Can you guide me, what do I do after downloading your shader pack, it came as a lame file. Also the blue editor background, how do I change from the galaxy to the one like yours, it’s really calming. I currently have a gaming PC, so I just decided get SP on PC :) @SledDriver
@Spacedoge12345plane Sure, I could have all kinds of doohickeys hooked up to all seven activation groups, but considering you never upvote my builds -- not even this one -- you obviously think I'm quite a bad builder; so why would you ask me to build anything? :)
Can you make something new with more than the same functions you always use
Thanks, @Spectre2520
