Shift+Spacebar, just like normal Acceleration carrier ops.

2 questions please, first off just an incredible peice of work

1. I saved a flight with f-18 ready for take off when I reloaded the saved flight no aircraft carrier present.

2. When I do an instant replay no carrier present to watch landing

any help would be appreciated, thank you.

The carrier is AI, so you can't see it in replays and when using AICarriers2r2 it's local to each session (it won't come back automatically if you restart the flight).

Hi,
I am having a problem with the gear on the T-45.
Right after lauch I go for gear up and nothing happens.
Pressing "G" no go, and then going into the VC and raising the gear handle, which does go up, still the gear stays down.

Just wondering if others have seen the same..

I fly the Hornet and its fine..

Thanks.

Press shift + u after taking off, before closing the gear.

Javier,

I'm impressed! You've got the Air Boss audibly directing FOD checks and animated tow vehicles. And I read here that the elevators are animated too; 1. what is the time interval for all these animations and which elevator is animated? (I'd like to park my bird on them and be taken below deck, Please).

In addition to that, 2. could you add the carriers Captain, Air Boss, and remaining crow's nest personal to the amazing model? And, while your at it ... a chaplan, some Marines, the mess crew and some enlisted members to the other decks would also be great.

Finally, 3. is there any way you could animate the flight deck crew? I'd like the Yellow Shirts to shoot me off the deck and give me taxi signals, the red shirts to spot check my ammo, the grapes (purple shirts) to fuel me and the green shirts to tow me around on the pushback just like the civilian marshallers of Aerosoft's AES for FSX...
If that's not too much to ask...

Thank you very very much.
Job Very well done.

nothing is ever enough for you, sheesh!

Hi James,
Right rear elevator lowers and raises every few minutes. A Hornet may or may not be on it depending on the ship chosen in the AICarriers menu. The lower hangar deck may be full or empty, again, same reason.

There are screenys of the elevator in the beta thread, as a further reference, if needed.

Hope this helps you.

Thank you very much Mr. wilycoyote4 it does.

PS: Mr. Javier, Thank you again!

A note on saved flights, the carrier will only be there if it's following an AI route, not using aicarriers.
You can get it to appear in replays if you use FSRecorder, the carrier is following an AI route, start from a saved flight and reset the flight before replaying, that way the replay starts at the same time it was recorded and the carrier is in the same position.

another way with saved flight and not AI
is start the flight then add the carrier again

Great photos guys. Takes a lot of effort to get them this good. I keep coming back to this thread to see things I've not found yet. Have'nt got the hang of using ez-walk program yet. Also want to learn do some replays with the help of the above tips.

Quite nice! I especially appreciate being able to follow the "Ball" to impact. Using the de-Fault FA-18, really have to cinch the shoulder harness down!

Cheers: T.

P.S. :

The "latrine" is refered to as the "head". A reference to the days of sail.
