Default RE: Vampire NG door

Nony,
I started this thread because the other thread is so long.
The problem with that thread is, it shows how the real door works. Because the geometry of the retracts is different than the real thing, pivot point/location, you can't do it the way DH did it. All I know is I must be missing something because no matter what I try, I can't get it to work. On the other thread I figured out the pivot point for the NG door to work properly, but you can't get it to fit inside the model; it's forward of the #1 former, almost touching the f/g nose cap, there's just not enough room. Tried Robart offset hinges, that didn't work, in fact, everything I tried hasn't worked!. It's pretty frustrating, I finally can get back to finish the construction, only to be held up by a stupid door!
I'm not sure I understand your question, but the door fits in the fuse as the fuse opening is a mirror of the door, 45 degree notch and all.
Have no idea why they would've made the door that way.
BRG,
Jon
