Description: HMS Bounty and HMS Victory FSX Native AI Ships
by Milton Shupe, Rob Barendregt, Nigel Richards
INSTALLATION:
Put these two AI Ships folders in your FSX/SimObjects/Boats folder and set up routes as desired.
FUNCTION:
The AI Bounty and AI Victory ships will:
Stow sails when stopped/docked/mooring;
Show/stow anchors as required;
Animate Main sails and yard arms and in-line stays/jibs/spankers to agree with wind direction/flag at least to the +-50 degree port/starboard stops. The Victory will show studsails when conditions are right: running ahead of the wind and yard arms +-10 degrees. Since AI movement is not actual wind or propelled movements, when wind in coming from the front of the ships or in the Dead Zone, yard arms will remain in a maximum port or starboard position. This has no effect on forward speeds.
You can also download the full sailable Bounty and Victory packages from Sim-outhouse.com, Simviation.com, or Flightsim.com. The Victory package also offers a fully functional Multiplayer version.
Have fun!
