Virtavira Phantom F-4 freeware Carrier Ops

[PhantomP]

I have a question before downloading the Virtavia Phantom F-4 for fsx,will Carrier ops such as catapulting,and arresting work?Thanks

[Cees Donker]

Yes, that will work. Perhaps you'll have to add the cat launch entry.

Cees

Hey Cees,do you happen to have the cat launch entrys for this Jet?Thanks

[Cees Donker]

Not anymore. I deleted the Virtavia Phantom from my drive as I have the Milviz and the SimWorks version.... and this one was a bit redundant.

[ian elliot]

Thanks Gentleman.

[p14u2nv]

Thank you very much Ian

[PhantomP]

Does the updated versions on Simviation have any benefits over the original ones from the Vitavia site?,and will this make a difference when installing the upgraded cockpits from here on the warbirds library?

[ian elliot]

Ive try'd some of the Simvation upgrade's and im afraid i dont rate them much, i wouldn't bother with them, your best bet is the panel upgrade's by Jafo, here in the SOH library, lights and afterburner improvements are also included in the panel package's, and you might want to check out Nigel Richards F-4 sounds, originally for FS9 but works perfect in FSX

Do the improved start up,and sonic boom,and drag chute come with jafos panel also?

[PhantomP]

I heard theres some more paints in the paint kit at Virtavia site for the F-4 Phantom,how many paint kits are avaliable and whats the names of these? so I know to download the correct file.

[PhantomP]

OK,I need some help installing jafos panels,I am a little confused with these instructions.( replacement panels are one pack of 2 for the Virtavia/Alphasim F-4 Phantom II Pack 3.
They suit the models listed as..
panel.RF4E ->
model.1=RF4E
model.4=RF4C
model.6=RF4C
model.9=RF4E2
model.12=RF4B-C LATE ... all with VCs with twin radar screens.
panel.RF4B ->
model.11=RF4B Early ONLY ---- it has a slightly different gauge layout, but different enough to warrant its own panel.) The aircraft.cfg only has model 0-9,where are 10,11,and,12? Thanks

OK,if somebody is using the jafos Panel updates for packs 1,2,3 can you please post their modded aircraft.cfg for all 3,so I can see what,I am not doing right.Thanks

OK,nevermind,i figured out that model.10,11,and,12 are from the paint kit.
