Hello all!
This is a 3 days project to have some "train busting" missions at the AAC. Maiden sortie took place last Sunday and pilots present had a train load of fun.
The AAC Locomotive is now available in the CFS1 "other" section. HERE
It was a "quickie" simply because it is based on my previous tutorial on making "movable" objects out of library objects that you can find HERE.
The sound file is simple but effective; three stereo WAV files are playing the "cling clang" of the rails (as wind sound), the "chug-a-lug" (following RPM), and the whistle "choo-choo" (flaps up and down).
It is TG2 enabled with "concealed" 2x20mm cannons. For those wanting to have fun alone (there is another name for that kind of behavior btw...
), here is a suggestion;
Go in QC against 9 P-47D in defensive position. Use slew mode to get on the ground (Y key, then F1, then Y again), fire your engine and manned your station. Targets will come from everywhere! I have survived up to three waves of voracious "Jugs". Try to do better.
Another "refinement" is to try to drive your locomotive while staying on the tracks. I have been wandering all over France these last days doing that and pestering
against the twisted minds who laid those tracks. Despite "disjointed ground tiles" and bumps all over the place, I never exploded, not even once, but the roller coaster experience is... stimulating.
There is a README file within the release that gives some pointers and tricks. P-L-E-A-S-E!!! Read it!
All aboard!
