Special effects, controlled with XML gauges, designed for:

******* FS2002 Dassault/Dornier Alpha Jet A Portugal Air Force *********


Automatic Effects include:

1. Wingtip vortices appear when pulling "G"s (adjustable).
2. Wingflap vortices appear with flaps down, at "lift-off" speed or above.
3. Jet engine smoke appears between 10 and 300 kts. (optional)

Also, tire marks now appear on the runway with default touchdown smoke.

********INSTALLATION**********

After installing the Alpha Jet, verify that the five new "effects" files
are in the right location:


FS2002
|
effects:
fx_........
fx_........
fx_AlphaJetFlaptip.fx
fx_AlphaJetsmokeThin.fx
fx_AlphaJetsmokeThick.fx
fx_AlphaJetTireMark.fx
fx_AlphaJetwingtip.fx
fx_........


Then verify that the "AlphaJet" folder (with 8 xml gauges inside) is in
the right location:


FS2002
|
gauges
|
AlphaJet:
AlphaJetExhaustSmoke.xml
AlphaJetFlaptipLOGO.xml
AlphaJetWingtipSTROBE01R.xml
AlphaJetWingtipSTROBE02R.xml
AlphaJetWingtipSTROBE104R.xml
AlphaJetWingtipSTROBE32R.xml
AlphaJetWingtipSTROBE43R.xml
AlphaJetWingtipSTROBE74R.xml


If you don't see these folders/files, place them manually from the included folders...



*********OPERATION***********


The effects are automatic...

The XML gauges are invisible, with no direct control by the pilot.
The effects are independently activated by the XML gauges (while you fly)
by detecting what part of the flight envelope the AC is in.
