Puerto Rico as PR and Quick + Single missions
« on: May 08, 2024, 01:59:38 PM »

I just woke up this morning and decided to fly a CanCar&Foundries Fifi over the Puerto Rico map, and discovered no easy access to the map and no such country in the sim or real life.
..adding "country" and "regiments", thus PR file into Single; ..and Quick mission.
(USA) Puerto Rico pack:    https://www.mediafire.com/file/1izvpg3qwm1a5qi/!+PuertoRico_as_PR_andQuick.7z/file
         17th May 2024 very minor update corrects  2 x Call signs info in pr02 and pr05 . 

                                         Note: the "commuter-regiments" use speech:  US   SP   GB   AU   and  CA   
.. if you do not have CA speech, it is only the original GB file renamed CA, with the original Actor4  male voice.
   My current GB is the modified version using the female air controller ( actor4 ):  https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,28545.0.html
 
You  can find CzechTexan's    Puerto Rico map V2    here:    https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,6322.0.html

speech modality:
Code: [Select]
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico <none>                     US
 Air Flamenco                                          SP
 Borinquen Air                                         US
 Culebra Air Service                                   SP
 M & N Aviation                                        AU
 Merlin Express                                        GB
 Prams Air                                             US
 Pro-Air Services                                      US
 San Juan Aviation                                     SP
 Seaborne Airlines                                     CA
 Vieques Air Link                                      SP
..a purely just for fun speech association, by the way..  although viewed Seaborne DHC-6 do sports a C-, not N- designation.

solved.

Upcoming    SINGLE    mission, 1960 (top date).         Does not use plane-stationaries. (yet)

List of needed mods in a common game install:

 1- the above PR kit ,   minus the None file in  Missions/Single/PR file.
 2- air.DHC-6L        updated.   fm 5/12/2024. + can add FM 5/21/2024 for turbo sound.
 3- air.DHC-6W                       fm 8/3/2022.  + can add FM 5/21/2024 for turbo sound.
      main post download:   https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,69309.msg755002.html#msg755002
 4- air.SU_26M2    for 412.
 5- air.AN_24
 6- air.Cessna_172
 7- air.UPF_7        The land version of the Waco biplane.   ------> Made available in Reply#4.
 8- air.Stearman     ..also a biplane.
 9- air.Baron_58     .. the latest mod, wich is problem free.
10- air.Cessna_320   ..I think is a franken.
11- air.UC_43        ..staggerwing modern biplane.
12- air.Pitts_S1      ..indeed special.
13- air.Boeing_707 ..in the C-135pack and associated mod requirements. Jetwar.

What they have in common ?  All can be found as civilians in modern skies and airports.
                                            Most found in game with civilian attire.
Code: [Select]
[NStationary]
  0_Static ships.ShipYardSteam$QMary 2 165318.10 105370.65 490.00 0.0 0 0 0.5
  1_Static vehicles.radios.Beacon$Radio_Suomen_Yleisradio 1 20800.06 97000.01 360.00 0.0
  2_Static vehicles.radios.Beacon$Radio_Honolulu 2 116501.54 73304.10 360.00 0.0
Also the above lines can be use to add them to any PR Quick mission(s):  purely optional.

Civilian traffic over Puerto Rico  SINGLE  mission v2 for the PR file. Replaces the None file within, by DHC-6.
Features my personal "Radio Cuba" I made in 2014, red sided. A radio USA for 'every one is actually blue side', is also in use.

https://www.mediafire.com/file/lb60dyy0z7esck8/!+PuertoRico+DHC-6+Single+V2.0.7z/file

update May 21, 2024: AN-24 departure path fix + improved arrival; touring Stearmans adopt abrest formations.
tweaks of May 24, 2024: in my rig, SP speech is forced and heard when any Stearman(GB) blocks Baron's arrival. They both did.
tweaks June 3, 2024: they both didn't; tweaked the Baron arrival. I hope not a random wind problem ..both Stearman block again!


Attention: see previous post for the civil mods required.  Heed the FMB edit warning, down below right here.

..now been done:    ..syncronize airplanes for the final landings, post "mission complete". Goal was to force interactions with the tower.                 
                             .. Repair the San-Juan runway: It was pull-down by the active bridge nearby to an altitude of 0.
                                So I reluctantly brought the airfield height from 3m to 1m and 'plugged' the small remaining height-difference-gap.
                                A visual compromise out of respect for author's choice to maintain the 3m altitude. Pretty sure he saw the flaw.
                             ...provide the  ensemble of skins I used, if anyone need them: ..see in Reply #5.

Known issue: ...contrary to Quick missions, in Single, radio music don't auto shutdown at the end of game.
                  Also radio music auto starts upon exiting: you can use setup to turn Play music ON, then back OFF again.


warning: to FMB edit this mission safely,  requires air.Boeing_707  x 2  be replaced by  air.Mig_15 x2 in my  412 outfit.
               Otherwise edit can only be done by absolutely NOT CLICKING on any 707 plane or pathway.

Hi, Huberranz.

I'm running your mission on 4.12.2m, BAT 4.1_JTW.

I couldn't get only the WACO PFT_7 file, so I replaced it with a similar USA Bi-Plane.

Other than that, there is no problem.

I would appreciate it if you could include plane skins the next time you officially release the mission.

Thank you.

The Waco is 1930  land + seaplane. ..so TGA.

OK. I did lookup the original ... My version is not the same: modified, using bat 3.8 files as patch. (Pegasus)
Code: [Select]
uloz link
the float version may require a new fm (engine in buttons)« Last Edit: November 27, 2019, 12:54:01 am Dimon »
Any uloz link have become unusable to me, currently.
My final 412 file:    https://www.mediafire.com/file/7c7ia432kakzxqz/WACO_pegasus.7z/file

WACO UPF works well on 4.12.2m, BAT 4.1_JTW and SAS Modact 5.3.

You're so kind.

You've also reduced my time looking for skins.

Thank you very much, Hubberranz !!

Fantastic !

V2 is out with the map's runway at San-Juan fix. Link for new SINGLE V2 is in Reply #2.
..last planes to land are now synchronized for landing interactions. One more Stearman is added.
  Briefing now corrected to reflect all changes, hopefully.
update May 21,2024 of v2: fix AN-24 early path; set in formation flight for the two Stearmans.

Single V2 more updates: ..tweaks of May 24th and of 3rd June 2024. ..trials & tribulations for the final 3 arrivals to be in sync. .
