I did notice that when I activated the scenery, it shows up in the AddOn Scenery in the list, and does not show up in the list as a seperate entity.... dont know if that was something I did or not, but it works.  I guess since the Ocean Flattens file is still above the carrier file even tho it is within the AddOn Scenery file?
Thought I would let you know that... here are pics on how it shows on my copy

     
Cheers

Yeah Ed, the Ocean Flattens should be like any other addon scenery - it should appear in your scenery library list with that name at a level above the carrier but in your case as it's working, no worries.

Answeering the other question, the fix has been uploaded as a complete replacement Zip file. The original is still on download so anyone who's interested in the scenery, I'd wait a day so you get the latest version.

Sorry about this hassle - but we're entering new territory here

This is the evidence that FSX will simulate weapons. This pictures obviously shows the effect of the Dirt Bomb, directly imported from Scorched Earth 

Thanks for that Pete.

After publishing the carrier package I had several people contact me about cable trapping. Well obviously at the time of writing we can't do that. We need Pete Dowson to make us a new FSX FSUIPC for a start and then we need guys who are cleverer than me to work out how to use the data generated to create traps and catapults.

But there is an alternative which is still pretty good fun. As you know, the FSX carrier is on the small side and although anyone can land planes like the FSX Trike and the FS2004 Cub on it, anything much bigger is a bit tricky to say the least.

The FS2004 Grand Caravan flies great in FSX so what I've done is modify it a wee bit. I've given it bigger flaps which obviously have quite a bit more drag. I've also beefed the brakes up a bit and given it a wee bit more reverse thrust. This baby you can land on the FSX carrier ........ if you're good enough!

If you're interested in trying, package just uploaded here at SimV.

Have fun  

BTW - thanks Ed and Vince for trying it out and putting those pics up. Just the feedback I needed to get it right.

The ACES team had done pretty carriers, pretty water, they imported the multiple internal view from CFS3, imported the moving carriers from CFS2...

... NOW ACES PLEASE IMPORT THOSE DAMNED CFS2 ARRESTOR CABLES, DAMNIT !!!!!!! PPPPllllllEEEeeeeAAAAaaaassssseeee

Great stuff - like I said Ed, must have made it too easy.

OK, next one is building storms at dusk 

Whats Daube mean about evidence for simulating wepons? i've been thinking about this, and it already has fluor bombs. did microsoft decide to make a combo combat fs and civel fs? (sorry about the english )

Hehe, in fact it was just a little joke in which I was refering to a very old game nammed "Scorched Earth", in which you can launch "dirt bombs" that will create a huge hill of dirt just over the haed of your target, to prevent him moving or shooting  It's just looking like this FSX scenry bug 8)

Scorched Earth is surely the main inspiration for those games, it was the first, the mother of all games

Scorched Earth is still my all time favorite game.  Any idea where to d/l it?  I found a 3D version, but still not as good as the old one.  Love the MIRV and the Rollers.
