Get Tower View V1.1

File Description:
After landing it would be fine to have an external view (like the tower view) available for the instant replay function. Unfortunately Microsoft FS leaves the tower where it is after starting the flight and it is a nasty job to locate the tower somewhere in the map view and move it to the desired position. GetTowerView is a simple tool to adjust the tower view relative to the current aircraft position after landing. It uses the freeware tool FDSConnection by Flight Deck Software (www.flightdecksoftware.com) (included) and the Delphi-SDK for FDSConnection by Alan Chan ([email protected]). FDSConnection.PDF is also inluded. The program was tested with FS2004 but may also work with FS2002. New features of version 1.1: - Added storage of custom tower view positions after landing in a drop-down list. - Fixed bug: Current settings were not stored in version 1.0, when shut down via FSUIPC.

F1 View Module

File Description:
The F1_View module is a very basic tool that implements mouse-based zooming, panning, and eyepoint adjustments, including the ability to move your eyepoint beyond the limits imposed by Flight Simulator (this feature is good to stroll about virtual cabins of larger aircraft). This module requires a wheel-mouse (a center wheel that also acts as a center mouse button). /QUOTE This application is provided for free by Flight1 and can even be placed on your own website for download providing you follow the guide lines set down in the agreement. For those who are interested, you can find it HERE http://atr.flight1.net/ , look under: Quick Links to our ATR Project Areas... • Accessory Downloads which can be found about half way down the page you are initially viewing. and a bit more info from the readme: Modes of Operation: Rolling the mouse wheel forward means rolling the wheel away from the user. Rolling the mouse wheel backward means rolling the wheel towards the user. Virtual-cockpit: Wheel forward moves you forward and wheel backward moves you back. CTRL+forward moves right and CTRL+backward moves left. SHIFT+forward moves up and SHIFT+backward moves down. CTRL+SHIFT+forward zooms out and CTRL+SHIFT+backward zooms in. While in Pan Mode (when mouse wheel is pressed and held down) inside the Virtual Cockpit: Moving the mouse to the left rotates the view to the left. Moving the mouse to the right rotates the view to the right. Moving the mouse forward, away from the user, rotates the view up. Moving the mouse backward, towards the user, rotates the view down. Cockpit view: CTRL+SHIFT+forward zooms the exterior view out and CTRL+SHIFT+backward zooms it in. Tower view: CTRL+SHIFT+forward zooms the view out and CTRL+SHIFT+backward zooms it in. Spot view: Wheel forward moves the view distance forward, and wheel backward moves the distance back. CTRL+forward rotates the eyepoint right, and CTRL+backward rotates the eyepoint left. SHIFT+forward moves the eyepoint down, and SHIFT+backward moves the eyepoint up. CTRL+SHIFT+forward zooms out and CTRL+SHIFT+backward zooms in. Note: View distance is different from view zoom. While in Pan Mode (when mouse wheel is pressed and held down) in spot view: Mouse left/right rotates the eyepoint right/left. Mouse up/down moves the eyepoint up/down. Top-down view: CTRL+SHIFT+forward moves the view distance out and CTRL+SHIFT+backward moves it in. Note: In this mode you can move your view all the way to outer space and back in.

Recorder Module 1.3

File Description:
This module can record flights, save them to files and play them back like the FS instant replay and flight video recorder, but with a lot more features. The module does NOT record video files (like .avi), it records data like aircraft position, speed, etc, so the recordings can only be played inside FS. This has the advantage, that you can watch your recordings from different views. It also allows to play recordings as AI traffic, which e.g. allows flying in formation with yourself. Additionally it includes advanced view features for the tower and spot views. Main features: recording flights of unlimited length - replay - recording of AI traffic - play recordings as (AI) traffic - jumping/searching forward/backward during playback - playback control via keyboard or control window - loop part of a recording - change playback speed - custom keyboard controls - recorded data is customizable (available are throttles, control surfaces, gear, flaps, spoilers, lights, engines on/off, propeller/mixture, nav and com radios, date/time, smoke) - multiple tower/spot/VC views - optional manual panning of tower/spot view direction - automatic zooming - saving/loading sets of tower/spot/VC views

Fly By utility v2.0

File Description:
FS2004 Fly By v2.0. This utility enables fly by view when FS is in tower view mode. New: AI aircraft fly by view is now available. AI aircraft can be selected from the list and shown in fly by or spot plane view. Next/previous AI aircraft can also be selected with the key commands. Cycle AI aircraft fly by / spot plane view is available too. Random options for horizontal (left-right) and vertical (up-down) viewpoint positions are added. There are two types of random: with constant and variable distance to the plane. Parameters range now can be assigned. Therefore fly by period, relative lateral and altitude positions can be increased significantly. Utility is provided with the keyboard commands. Limitation of Functionality: For user aircraft it is full-functional version which does not require any registration. AI aircraft options are time-limited for the unregistered version of utility. Every time FS starts, you have one minute summary to select and view AI aircraft fly by. By Valery Stenin.

Traffic View Board Version 2.1

File Description:
Traffic View Board is a new AI view gauge file that will give you an overview of the AI traffic without the need of external programs. This package works like a regular user aircraft and must be installed in the FS "Aircraft" folder. Instead of a regular aircraft model, this model is invisible, and the regular panel is replaced with a traffic board (similar to those found at any airport). When powered on you may choose between "Arrival", "Departure", "In flight" and "On ground". Each flight in the traffic board list represents an AI aircraft in FS2004. By clicking on a flight form the list, that particular aircraft is selected. When activating the "Follow aircraft" button the user aircraft are mapped to the AI aircraft position. This little trick allows you to spot that AI aircraft from any view in FS2004. FS2004 is still "looking" towards the user aircraft, but as the user aircraft are mapped to the AI aircraft FS2004 is "looking" towards the AI aircraft as well.
