Dogfight Training in FSX (MP Mission)

If you have ever wanted to do with a friend this in FSX :


in Multiplayer, here is an FSX Multiplayer Mission for 2 slots-players for doing just that...
Mission must be installed by both players and comes in 2 versions :
- Vocal messages only (vitrual dogfight training)
- Real Damage (Engine fire & Ailerons block).

Players start Head on over NAS Fallon AB. Purpose to place eachself at other player's "six" for guns resolution.
For this to be achieved, mission requires of the attacking player to remain for 5 secs at a 600m cubic area attached
to "six" of each participant.
This action triggers dialogues or vulcan/shell hit sounds & damage to defending player (depending version used).

Any plane may be used via the Multiplayer Menu (but keep in mind that some planes AirSpawn with engine/s not running)
as also there are instructions for changing the spawn coordinates if needed (or parked on ground...)

I've built this MP Mission about 6 months ago, for the "challenge" of buildinig it (and finally is fairly easy...). Though the "Real Weapon Damage"
is Fun, the vocal only version I guess is the most realistic & can serve well forpeople that might find this interesting. I guess to have such ability in FSX
over NAS Fallon or Miramar for training with Skyhawks, Tomcats, Rhinos etc is a nice ability...

You may see what this mission is about at the following video. See after 9:30 to skip the first testings until mission was succesfully trimmed :

Note : Though vocal files "work" as expected, the effect of engine fire is only visible by the player that took the damage.

My "gift" and Happy Holidays to all ! :santahat::santahat:
