"This version will support FCLP and the first FCLP location will be NOLF Coupeville. This scenery is a part of my FCLP missions pack vol.2 with only one file added for vLSO compatibility. The IFLOLS remains set to 3.75...."

Thanks Spaz,
Firstly, I get an error which says, the page you are looking for on this blog doesn't exist.
Secondly, I never knew paddles even had a blog. Awesome.
-
Spaz,
Correction to my last post. Clicking on the 'home' link on Paddles blog, takes me to the same place you indicated in your link.
My bad.
-
Mickey,
The same on my end. That's because the link should end with '.html', not '.htm' :)

Lol I thought that there might be something funnier as thats normally how it is with callsigns. Good change though FSXNAVYPILOT is a bit to much for a callsign in MP or you could have called him FNP but that could be misunderstood to mean other stuff lol. ;D

SUBS...

It really doesn't have to be funny or not funny, just pertinent or something that sticks. Heck, sometimes callsigns get downright lame and/or boring, but the thing is, if they stick... its yours. Even guys giving them sometimes just bail.. say when a dude's last name is Campbell, SOUP will be sure to follow, even though that's pretty weak. Or some really lame acronyms that have limited meaning (ie. NASA, no apparent SA). I mean, my first callsign "yeti" never stuck, even though the story behind it is really funny. If you've seen me drink, you'd have no problem understanding this one... right JIMI?! On the other hand, "sludge" was born in an ABM IQT academics classroom from guys watching me wolfing down BK breakfast (otherwise known as SLUDGE) and has stuck like flypaper ever since.

Care to tell that story? :P

Orion...
Yeah, but not on this thread. Need to keep the thread's original focus (FCLP vLSO) sharp. Meet ya on Skype sometime and give you "the rest of the story". Was mostly just explaining this to SUBS, that callsigns are really what happens to stick, funny or not.

lol good stuff Sludge.

SUBS...
Thnx. Just typical callsign stuff.
Fellas...
So who has used the FCLP vLSO full package yet? What did you use it with? The Sludge v2.0 TC/HF? The FSXBA bird? VRS bird? What were your results?
I'm asking, so you can give Paddles some feedback as well as JIMI and myself. I've downloaded the FCLP package but haven't installed it yet, even though I've worked with 0.7 beta on my san diego carrier free flight and it runs like a champ with the new G/S numbers. Plus, the customizations (multiple levels, tanker AI, etc) on the vLSO keep getting better and better.
Oh yeah, before I forget, one problem I've had is that when I do the "auto-start on FSX open" feature that Paddles told me to do, I got a problem when I'd try to close the program while FSX is still running. I'd try to re-open it, while FSX was still running, and would get a RED FSX (no connect) light. This is with a Win7 pro 64-bit install. Anyone else have the same problems?

Thought I just land this video (http://youtu.be/dui5GcmX2V0) here on the spot...
-
Thanks. Some very good detailed views in that video. No wonder LSOs are DEEF! ::)
-
Lovely screenshot! May I use this in some of FCLP manuals? ;)
-
Sure. It comes from the video. Do you need more? ;D Always happy to help.

Yo Paddles I have just discovered something important, the Tanker for the VRS Superhornet is in a different location to the normal VRS Superhornet its located in the Simobjects/Misc folder. Because it is less detailed to allow better frame rates from what I understand. I'm not sure if adding this will allow its hose to be extended you may have to talk to VRS devs for the trigger to make that part work. BTW its skin can be changed to the other skins of the VRS SH in the config. It would be cool to somehow have the VRS tanker have a skin selection like what you have with vLSO it maybe as simple as selecting the VRS tanker and then pointing to the VRS SH skins folders.

Amid safety fears, U.S. Navy jets train on Iwo Jima 08 Jun 2013

"Landing Signal Officers watch as a U.S. Navy F/A-18 Super Hornet does touch-and-go landing training on Iwo Jima on June 7. Iwo Jima is a training site like no other. The rugged volcanic crag is one of the most iconic battlegrounds of World War II, and is so isolated and barren it has almost never been inhabited by anyone other than military troops. (AP Photo)"
