FS2004/FS2002 Panel for the aircraft carrier USS Hornet from the time of the the WWII and Koreawar. Download from CGs shipyard required!
The panel includs photorealistical views from the bridge, guns and cannons plus many views of the aircraft crowded deck. Views from the bridge to the deck or from the edges of the flightdeck show you Corsairs, Hellcats and Avengers; some of them with folded wings. For those who want to use the carrier from the time of the Koreawar with other aircraft or for those, who want to use carriers with another or without camo, a paint-kit with empty decks is included.

REQUIREMENTS.
Download an appropriate aircraftcarrier first. I recommend the USS Hornet or the USS Leyte from CGs Shipyard. Here is the link:
http://www.simviation.com/lair/cfs2shipyard.htm

INSTALLATION:
1. Install the the carrier first.
2. Copy my files into the folder of the carrier and overwrite.
3. Copy and overwrite from the folder - copy files into mainfolder - sound, gauges and effects into the mainfolder of your FS2002/Fs2004
4. If you have installed the USS Hornet or another ship with dark grey deck then please copy the texture with the green deck into the texture folder

Please veryfy, that you, if you will use another aircraft.cfg, still keeps this eyepoints:

[Views]
// Longit,Lateral,Vertical (feet)

eyepoint=0.0,60.00,99.00

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
FUNCTIONS & views:


Num Pad 1 - 9 = Different virtual views from the bridge
Num Pad 5 (shift function)
plus 1 - 9 = More views with deckviews and photorealistic guns and cannons.


Sound:
try the key G twice and
YY (US) or ZZ (Eur) (Key for Autopilot)

Effects:
I (for smokeeffects) to enable far explosion at your target
L (for lights) to enable the exhaust smoke together with the lights.
To enable only the smoke, if the nav-lights are turned off, then turn on the 3rd lightswitch at the lightpanel


* Remarks:
Attention !!! : The button at the cannons(gauge00=switch9_O!switch,450,719,20,15,boom1.wav[100])
might probably cause a hang up of the Flightsimulator, when changing the aircraft after using the Libertyship, caused by this button, which activates the gun sound. After restarting the flightsimulator everthing works fine again. If it disturbes you, then don't hesitate and delete all those lines with configurations of such gauges (see bottom of panel.cfg [Fixed Window38] to [Fixed Window45]. Please delete only the line with the gauges and not the configuration of the fixed windows.

CREDITS:
A great job was done by R.L. Clark, with his sound buttons and sound effects. Many thanks to him.
Many thanks also to all other of the creative persons, who do such a great work.
I am sorry, but I do not know from whom all the gauges, effects and sounds are. I have to many of them.
