Dedicated to all the great freeware/shareware contributors to flightsim
who have made this a fantastic simulation and the endless amount of
assistance provided to me over the years from the flight-sim list.
Introduction
-------------
I am pleased to announce my first contribution to the Flight Simulator
Global Network, the photorealistic sailplane panel.
The panel is based on the glider/sailplane I fly here in Australia.
The glider is a 2 seater Blanik model.
Installation
-------------
The file setup is as follows:
Detailed description
--------------------
In FSFSConv create a folder called Glider.
Move all the files (panel.cfg and glider.bmp) into the folder.
Use the normal methods to select a panel for a particular plane.
Installing the panel on the default Schweizr
---------------------------------------------
If you need to use this panel on the default Schweizr follow the
instructions below:
The Schweizr by Microsoft has its own panel installed in the aircrafts
directory.
You therefore need to rename the panel folder something like gliderpanel_2 and move it to your FSFSConv folder so it can remain there as another panel choice.
eg.
flightsimutlator\aircraft\Schweizr\panel
RENAME
flightsimutalor\aircraft\FsFsConv\Glider_2
THEN
Create a panel folder in the Schweizr directory.
eg.
flightsimutlator\aircraft\Schweizr\panel
Copy the file called panel_2.cfg that I have provided to this directory.
Rename it panel.cfg.
You can now fly your glider with the photorealistic panel.
