FS9 / FSX CONCORDE COLLECTION.
Includes new model, four new textures, VC, Passenger's views, full animated parts, and INSTRUCTIONS FOR GAUGES ON FSX - COCKPIT / VC MODE !! - gauges from FS9 needed - (or use default B747-400 PANEL, so gauges will not appear on VC mode). GAUGES NOT INCLUDED: you have to download MR. FRANCISCO SILVA's wonderful panel: "fsconcpn.zip" wich will also provide afterburn effects. Other files suggested: "nlf_v2.zip" and "njs_final.zip" (BEAUTIFUL lights and smoke effects) by Nick Needham. Also MR. KALON JEFFRIES's sound package: "cncsstsn.zip", and the experience will be THE BEST!!!!!. NO FIXES NEEDED. By Libardo Guzman.
- remove previous "1CONCORDEGA" if you have installed it.
(YOU DON'T NEED THE FOLLOWING A - B STEPS IF HAVE INSTALLED "CONGA.zip" PREVIOUSLY):
A - Download Mr. FRANCISCO SILVA's panel but don't install it; copy the COMPLETE FOLDER called "KO_F16_FX" into your FS9/FSX main GAUGES folder; copy the effects files into your FS9/FSX main EFFECTS folder.
B - (Optional) Download Mr. NEEK NEEDHAM's "nlf_v2.zip" and "njs_final.zip" files, wich will provide effects for engines; remember to follow his instructions: you need to go cockpit view first; if not, smoke effects won't appear.
- Place the folder called "1CONCORDEALLGA" into your FSX main SimObjects/Airplanes folder.
- Open the folder called "FSX_FILES"and copy its contain into your new installed "1CONCORDEALLGA" folder.
- Open your FSX STOCK b747-400 / panel, make a back up of its panel.cfg file.
- Open the folder called "FSX_panel_CONFIGURATION" included into "FSX_FILES" folder; copy/paste the included panel.cfg into your FSX / STOCK B747-400 / panel , replacing the existing one.
- When running FSX, FIRST YOU MUST LOAD A STOCK AIRPLANE AND LET THE SIMULATOR RUN. CHANGE VIEW TO COCKPIT AND EXTERNAL; AFTER THAT YOU CAN LOAD THIS CONCORDE. IF YOU DON'T DO THIS, ENGINES WILL NOT TURN ON AND ZOOM OVER EXTERNAL VIEW WILL NOT WORK PROPERLY; I couldn't fix this, I'm sorry.
Full animated parts, using tipical commands:
Passenger door: press ""SHIFT+E".
Other doors: press ""SHIFT+E+2".
Extending landing lights: press "/".
Extending nose and visor for taking off and first aproaching procedure (not faster than 325): press "F7"once.
Extending nose and visor for landing: press "F8" (full flaps) once (no faster than 270).
Crew's movements can be seen on exterior view and VC by animating rudder and landing gear.
Reverse: press "F2" just after touching.
You must become an expert pilot for flying this plane, specially for landing:
Don't try to do it from cokpit, because won't see the runway on final approach; do it from VC mode, using zoom out once.
Trim will help you to keep right angle while flying (first time to do it will be when taking off.....); use it as I suposse it will be in real, to keep gravity center leveled while fuel is displaced front / back.........
