vLSO Beta release

[Paddles]

Thanks for the Xmas gift, but I'm having a lil problemo. Won't allow me to select a tanker.. no aircraft present in drop down menu (while fsx running) .. help please ..

Well, I tried to re-create this problem with no luck, though... Set my tanker and quit both vLSO and FSX. Then started vLSO - the tanker list was empty. Finally started FSX - the tanker list got populated with my tanker highlighted:


Have no idea what's wrong on your side...

Christmas comes early!

Paddles, you have made my Christmas - so many presents

Thank you, and may your Christmas be the best ever.

I have the same issue with the Tankers not showing.  I have tried with FSX running and not running with no difference.  Everything was working fine with the previous version and I just installed this new version over the old.

I have recognition of my superbug, F-14x, fxba f18, etc. in-sim.
No recog of dinos s3  in-sim and no aircraft listed under the list of aircraft like before.
Tankers are all recognized.

Is there a place to find the s-3's config?
Thanks
Vlso is the Best part of fsx.
Fantastic!

whiteside,

That's strange, because the S-3B by Dino is supported by default (as long as its atc_model parameter equals to 'S3').
As for your problem, I'd like to clarify some of the details...

Does 'No recog of dinos s3  in-sim' mean that you're getting 'unsupported aircraft' messages when flying the S-3B?
Saying 'no aircraft listed under the list of aircraft like before' do you mean that the 'Custom aircraft definitions' list is empty? True, this list is empty because the default .ini file, bundled with the program, has no custom AC definitions anymore.
And finally, does 'Tankers are all recognized' mean that the 'Tanker aircraft' drop-down list is filled with airplanes, currently present in your FS, and your tanker is highlighted?

Please try running FSX Registry Repair.

THANK YOU SIR, that did the trick for me.. Merry Christmas !!

I need a little help... after many attempts i've all IMHO parameters (see attach) but i receive a WOP... what i do wrong???   Someone can send me a"VLSO for Dummies" manual??

When I kept getting wave off pattern calls I took way too long to realize that manual ball call was on and I wasn't calling the ball.  Not sure if that's the case for you, but it might be worth checking.

[Paddles]

Orion, you're right. According to what I see it's a WOP in manual ball mode (no Ball and timer balloons). If the LOG option is turned ON, then in the log file you can see 'No pilot response' comment for this pass.

Definitely I'll need to think about a vLSO for Dummies or FAQ...

Hi Paddles, thanks and Merry Christmas. Desregard my last. It's all working fine now.
What a great add-on!

just downloaded the latest version and I am getting all clear when im on glideslope then as soon as I hit the deck I get a "bolter bolter" then a "ball call" then another "bolter bolter" and then I get 3 debrief screens. First one is ok then I get two of these.

[whiteside]

Paddles, are some of the calls not authentic?
I get the idea that some are recordings from the boat and some are made at home.
As a purist, I'm just curious.
Thanks
