.........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).

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.
 
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.

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.
 
Bone,
Beautiful pics of the VF-161 "Chargers" Phantom! Can you tell me where you can find a phantom that is either native FSX (probably not one out there), or a good port over that has a VC!

Much abliged.

Finally installed. Works perfect, including the elevator which is really a GREAT feature !
Amazing job. Thank you all very much for this fantastic addon. :icon29:
 
Elevator, i have tried the elevator with the F-18 from accelartion add on and i can get it to back onto the elevator but when it goes down and i go to pull off it it drops me into the water.

Shift+Spacebar, just like normal Acceleration carrier ops.


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).

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

You learn something new everyday.....In the days of old the folks would go to the head of the ship and do their business through a grate into the big blue. Now I know the rest of the story.

Thanks

This isn't directed at anyone! Just thought someone might be interested?!

"Using the Head" comes from hanging you butt over the bow of the ship and doing your business. There weren't any "bathrooms" on board most wooden ships of war. Sometimes they had buckets or boards to sit on. They had hand towels or sponges to wash with afterwards. They'd rinse the towel and take it with them or let someone else use it; not very sanitary!:icon_lol: The waves/ocean would wash the poo off the bow but during calm seas the Capt. would make a detail wash down the head as punishment!:barf:

Anyhow you're correct........"I have to go to the head.":mixedsmi:

Sorry I'm rambling but the history of Marines serving on board navy ships is a passion of mine. I've been studying about the "Soldiers of the Sea" for a long time. S/F
