APOCALYPSE NOW 04 (MICROSOFT FLIGHT SIMULATOR 2004 ONLY)
(Based on the 1979 movie "Apocalypse Now")
First off you will need the (Lago FSE scenery enhancer) for this file (A registered version) if you dont have it
a link is included....it is a program that works with FS2004 (ONLY) will not work with FS2002...The FSE program
provides the massive palm tree scenery and moving dynamic objects for the file.
---1 install the fse scenery enhancer if you dont have it...
It will create a folder inside fs2004 called LAGO-in it will be a folder (FSE) and a folder called (Common)
In the FSE folder is a folder called (Data)--copy the (SE2) file (apocalypsenow.SE2) into it...
NEXT open the (Common) folder and open the (Tracks) folder and copy the (OSC) file (apocalypsenow.OSC) into it..
You will find these files that need to be copied in the (Lago FSE) folder (here) in this download..
---2 copy the (APOC NOW 04 ) folder into the (ADDON SCENERY) folder of FS2004 and do the ADD ON thing-if
you dont know how to add on scenery for FS2004 just search on the net "How to add on scenery FS2004" DUHHHHH!!!
---3 Open the (AIRCRAFT) folder here and copy each folder in there into the (AIRCRAFT) folder of FS2004- (BUT) read
the installations in each folder for -guages ect. that must be copied into FS2004 guages folder ect.
.
---4 Copy the ForestFire.fx file in the (EFFECTS) folder here into the (EFFECTS) folder of FS2004 -this is for
the fire and smoke effects of the scenery...you may already have it
---5 Copy the (APOC NOW 04 Flights) folder here into the (FLIGHTS) folder of FS2004..
NOW START FS2004---4 Now go to (SELECT A FLIGHT) and scroll to (APOC NOW Flights 04)
you will find the flights labeled-Start any of this and when the
flight starts hit the (alt) key on keyboard and the menu will appear up top and you will see LAGO up there
scroll it to START PLAYER and start it and its scenery files will load (sometimes it may take a bit or there
will be white or green loading boxes) it will only-(this is if U dont already have LAGO FSE scenery enhancer installed)
play the scenery in the areas they are created. OR select Register to online your registration...so the file will play..
for more info read the Lago manual for creating your own
SETTINGS--Make sure THE (Ground scenery cast shadows are turned off) or you will get a SLIDESHOW effect-it should turn
that off automaticly-but framerates are tough in FS2004 anyway and it most likely isnt your video card-but your processor
in your computor- for instance- a PC with a pentium 4 processor should get an average of about 7-20 FPS over this scenery..UHH
search the net again "FS2004 Framerate help ect"there are plenty of help stuff--- but I push my machine with pentium 4 and
an extra stick of ram on my scenery--there are no lite versions--its up to you to get a new computer--just work harder
its the American way .....
CREDITS - A very much thanks to Lynn Rogers and Tim Conrad for permission of their models of aircraft and PBR boat to use in this
file,it made this scenery all it was intended-for evereyone who is a fan of the movie Apocalypse now to place yourself in it.
And to Microsoft for making a great product you can add on to with your own stuff,and to the folks at Lago for being the pioneers
of the new age of scenery addons..Good work...
This file is dedicated to all our Vietnam vets...thanks...Semper Fi..
