Vietnam for CFS2 Beta Release

I see light at the end of the tunnel, Printer , scanner...All hooked up and working great.

All the stuff to maintain the Free Flight Site working and ready to go, already made some updates "Allen"

Now transferring the CFS1, CFS2 and FS2004 stuff, hope to be back in the game sooner than I thought.

Fingers still crossed.

Having a small problem with mission builder ?? Will open my old layouts, but not my new layout ??
Found a work around though...If I open the layout with GSL Edit .. all seems to work out fine.

Working on Lima 85 as a test at the moment but before I finish I want to finally get to take a look
at Allen's C1A Trader.................Yep, I think I am back in the game.

Dave
 
Allen,
I finally was able to check out the S2 and C1A, great job as usual. I have 3 different sound Files for them.
I am working on an optional 2d panel............
Question:
I am finally getting my key and joy stick selections set up, other than the Tail hook, wings and flaps are there
any other animations that I need to look at or set up.

Great job Sir,

Dave

PS: I found this pretty good website

I don't use any others. There are the Concorde nose keys but I don't think any one uses them for CFS2.
 
Still having a strange problem with Mission Builder not loading my layout files after moving
to my latest XP computer...BUT I still hope to have some new scenery completed this week.

John,

Just wanted to see if you had ever had time to finish some of Als buildings ??

They will come in handy on a few of these Lima sites and Rolling Thunder missions.

Which ones do you want. I can do a pack of what ever you are looking for. I have about four projects that I'm part way through. I'm almost finished with a couple. Let me know what you are looking for and I'll get to it.

OH, I have the CH-47 ready for testing. I just have to do the Readme. I don't want to do anymore readme's. Worst part of the whole process.
 
Sets 3 and 4, I forwarded them to you via email in case you did not have them.

Thanks for the help John.

Lima 07 has been released, although I am still having problems with Ground2k on this rebuilt computer,
I went old school, I think ya'll will still like it. I will now get to work on the local river near by, etc, etc.

Well you've got more inbound.


Next Up...

I think I'll have the Hueys ready soon. I've done the MedVac, Army and Marine set. There will be Static, Rotors turning, Flying 50m, 55m and 60m. Ooops I have to do a hover version as well. Would 10m off the deck be about right? or would 5m be better? DD I need your input here. Where is that Marine anyways.

OH...

I've also done a crashed model. Need it for those SAR missions. I may make a CH-47 version carrying a Huey. If not it will be part of my helo payload pack.
