Thanks noddy, you beat me to it. Looks very good.

[delta_lima]

Looks really nice!

Wonder if a Korean War era boat will ever materialise, though ... Thank goodness for Mr Davies' Leyte and Laz' Ocean ...

Can't deny she's a lovely looking boat - no doubt!:salute:

Now, can someone direct me to some instructions on how to work with carriers in FSX?? I hate to admit it but this was my first landing and takeoff on an FSX carrier. :salute:

Whoops. Nevermind. Just found the manual. Gotta fly now. :mixedsmi:

[gradyhappyg]

Tried to buy it couldn't. Paypal acting screwy. Hope I didn't just give my info to some scammer.

[roger-wilco-66]

Great news, a sure buy!!
Been waiting for that.


Cheers,
Mark

Anyone able to get the LSO to function?? I've modified my panel.cfg and added the entry per the manual, but all he does is hold his arms out. Seems like I'm missing something, but not sure what. :salute:

Advanced animations?

Advanced animations?

Dave

Sorry I wasn't more specific in my thoughts. What I meant was that it was as if I was missing a *.dll or other program that the LSO setup needs to function.

Basically it's a Window and xml gauge added to the panel.cfg. I can open the window and the LSO is standing there with his arms and paddles outstretched, but there is no animation as expected when I deviate from the landing flight path.

I have a support ticket in with Vertical Studios, so we'll get this sorted out in time. I was just wondering if someone else might have the same issue, or if it is just my setup.

I should add that this issue isn't detracting from addon. The install is straightforward, the vessel looks fantastic, and I've made about 20 traps and take offs without the LSO.

[Mithrin]

Anyone know if this will install into P3D? Thanks in advance.:salute:

[Delta_Whiskey]

if you are cash strapped like me ,, my cv-6 is still free but not as detailed as this

[TARPSBird]

I get the square window for the LSO but no LSO. Maybe he's down in the "dirty shirt" wardroom getting coffee and a slider. Somebody go tell him there's a recovery in progress!
Aside from the quirky LSO gauge, an outstanding ship with great detail. Pardon me for being dumb, but how do you get down to the hangar bay? Is the Y (slew) key the only option?

Hello
I have downloaded the Enterprise and now I wonder where is the manual ?

[TARPSBird]

The manual is in the "pilotable" CV-6 folder in your FSX SimObjects/Airplanes folder.

Did you by any chance make a typing error? You can block the text in the manual (shift+mouse) and then save it as wordfile (and then hopefully, but I haven’t tried yet) copy it into your panel file).<o></o>

Does anyone know where I can find the entries for AICarriers? They do not seem to be in the manual.

Here ya go, I titled it "Vertigo CV-6 Enterprise" because I have the other FSX CV-6's too. Enter this at the bottom of your aicarriers.cfg file and make XX the next sequential formation #.

[formation.XX]
title=Vertigo CV-6 Enterprise
unit.0=CV-6 Enterprise, 0, 0

[TARPSBird]

Don't ask...

I see what you mean, WH. Slew right, as soon as you get off the deck edge you start falling behind the ship so push the plane forward, drop down a bit, slew back into the hangar bay, keep moving forward until you touch the deck. A few guys standing around, a couple SBD's. Nice eye candy but really not worth messing with if the elevators don't work.

Thanks, TARPSBird. Off to fly!

This is per the manual on the various panel.cfg files..

To activate and animate the LSO, add the following lines to the panel.cfg for the aircraft you wish to use with the CV-6.

WindowXX=Batsman
//--------------------------------------------------------
[WindowXX]

size_mm=256,256
windowsize_ratio=1.0
window_pos= 0.75, 0.0
position=8
visible=1
ident=10004
gauge00=vstudios!LSO.xml, 0, 0, 256, 256
//--------------------------------------------------------

No rocket science here. I did notice that the entry references an xml file instead of a specific gauge. the vstudios folder is in the right location with all the right files.

Nice day for a cruise in Puget Sound, BTW
