OK3 Wire
« on: June 28, 2011, 04:05:05 am »
Having fun around the boat in the Sludge Hornet for some carrier quals. Note, I am pretty sure none of my passes were OK3s, but hopefully Serge's vLSO will help with that assessment in the future ;D Almost lost my wings on the third pass. Enjoy!

CAPT...

Great video, definately a FSDT-crew props video.  I have one question, HOW DO YOU GET the WATER LOOKING SOO GOOD?!  Geez, mine looks nowhere near as good.

Thanks, Guys.

I have one question, HOW DO YOU GET the WATER LOOKING SOO GOOD?!  Geez, mine looks nowhere near as good.

Sludge, I use both Flight Simulator Water Configurator (FSWC), a free tool/utility you can get on AVSIM, and I also use REX HD http://www.realenvironmentxtreme.com/. Both allow you to tweak every little aspect about the water. Took me awhile to get it the way I like, but now I can't imagine flying with out these settings and add ons. Since I do most of my flying around the boat, having realistic water and waves is important to me.

Sludge and Simon,

Here are my settings for REX and FSWC; note in FSX I set water to mid.2x under display options. Hope this helps.





Here are a couple shots showing off my water settings in FSX  8)

Scuddy,
Here is where you can download FSWC; http://www.strikingsoftware.com/fswc.shtml

Jymp,
Send me a PM, with your email so I can send you the TGS mission which incorporates LSO calls, once you have the mission you can download my updated LSO calls (based on real world audio) here (latest version 3): http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?Author=Brennan+Haltli

Hey Capt., Just took a look at installing the missions, I'm not sure how to install this, I don't see a "TGSexe" to install, and using winzip when I right click I don't see a "Extract to TGS-Day_Traps" folder, maybe Sludge could put this in with the Intergrator package with the next update ?

Jymp, unzip the attachement I sent you, then unzip the TGS-Day_Traps folder, then all you need to do is place this entire folder into your FSX Military Mission folder and you should be able to fly the mission the next time you load FSX.
