Sludge Hornet Modifications

<< < (11/73) > >>

SUBS17:
Wow 51mb there must be some serious modifications here good stuff Sludge.

Tregarth:

Dear Sludge,

Thank you for some very good work, your holiday has obviously paid dividends.

I have printed your ReadMe, can you please explain

"TO INSTALL "MEATBALL" LIGHTS FIX AND BETTER DANTES STROBE/BEACON LIGHTS FOR SLUDGE HORNETS:
- Recommend download/install DFLIGHTS.zip from flightsim.com, as the Sludge Hornet uses the beacon/
  strobe lights from that modification. And, the included "halo.bmp" helps light definition
  as well as using a value of 1.3 on the FSX.CFG light scalars will make the Meatball far easier
  to breakout and discern each light individually."

The only DANTE I know of had an inferno, is this the same one?  I have downloaded DFLIGHTS.zip, but I don't see a file called halo.bmp

I guess that to add the IFLOLS into the T-45 I simply copy the file into the equivalent sub-folder in the T-45 main folder.  Is this right?

Thanks again, I may contact you soon to arrange a check flight, if that is OK with you.

Sludge:
Frenchie and Wily...  Thanks, it was a while coming, and hopefully worth it to everyone.

USAF Ret...  Yes, with the Sludge Hornet I always recommend a fully CLEAN INSTALL.  Simply delete the previous versions, then download/install the new one per the README file.  Will eliminate most problems, and will make it easier for me to help you if you need my support.

SUBS...  Yes, there's alot in there.  Some stuff I couldnt add (no permissions) to the original release and stuff that just got made (UFC "BlackBox/Betty" and IFLOLS, much thanks to Serge "FSXNP" Luzin).  So I had to put it all together, make the README.txt, and error check it.  Long, tedious, pain-in-the-#$$ process, but its out there now...

Tre... The "halo.bmp" file should be in that package, along with instructions about where to install it.  On the T-45, a partial yes.  You need to copy the .cab over into the Panel folder, but also, you'll have to modify the panel.cfg file to include entries so that the .xml gauge is recognized and applied.  You have the T-45 with JR's newer Realistic HUD right? We will have to meet on Skype sometime and get you setup, then we can take a buddy flight again...

Again, many thanks to all involved on this board... especially Serge (FSXNP Inc. genius), Ray "svicar" Gagnon for his "Grunge Sludge" paint, and all the people here for their inputs and help.

For anybody needing any help, or something not working, feel free to PM, IM, email, or Skype me anytime.

Later
Sludge

Tregarth:
Sludge,

Found it, it is in the Texture folder.  If you ever need someone to proof read for you, I will be very willing to make a contribution to show appreciation for what all of you do.

Thanks

Tregarth

svicar:
Bravo and many thanks to you, Sludge, and all those who contributed their time and talent towards the production of this great package! ;D ;D ;D Loved it so much that after some minor editing I substituted the default F-18 with "Sludge Hornet". Although I and very greatful for this modification I hope that it won't be the last.

Great package!
