A short tutorial on making any aircraft carrier/prop aircraft into a true catapult combination. This is an adaptation of GreenGhost's Gauge by Klausreiss to use Peter Dowson's FSUIPC.DLL for a CFS2 Catapult for aircraft carriers. I just did the testing and package assembly for the download. I have tried to make it as simple to understand as possible.
If you need assistance, contact me by email.
The examples included here refer to the carrier USS_Sicily50 by Collin Glendinning (available at: http://www.simviation.com/lair/cfs2shipyard.htm) and the aircraft DB_F4U4B_Corsair(my modification of DBolt's F4U-1C with Keltiheart's skin). With the explanation and by viewing the files, you can apply this to any carrier and aircraft you may wish.

This is an original model of the HMS Surprise, a Frigate of the 6th Class...very small at 125', as compared to the average frigate in the 175'-200' range. She was built in 1797 by the French as the Unite and captured by the British, who renamed and upgunned her to from 24 8-pounders to 32-pounders. A typical British Bulldog, she was sent to neutralize the 44-gun French privateer Acheron in the novel/movie Master & Commander.

This is a submerged version of my AI German Type VII U Boat. It is running at periscope depth, and all that is visible above the surface is the periscope and a small bow wave (also included) that it generates. The shadow of the sub can be seen from high altitude, if you have Aircraft Shadows selected in Settings. The sub can be bombed or rocketed, as well as strafed. It will show on your Tactical Display.

This is the pilotable version of my Type VII U Boat. The Type VII was the most numerous U Boat of WWII and was in
production from 1938 through the end of the war. The Panel, DP, AIR and CFG files are by PSULLYKEYS. This version will is armed with an 88mm deck gun and 20mm AAA, as well as the MK10 Torpedo. Guns Only or Torpedoes are selectable payloads. The trigger fires the 88mm forward, and the cannon key fires both the 88mm and 20mm
broadside in both directions. The torpedo loadout is 12.
The vessel submerges/surfaces using the EXITS/Canopy command. When submerged only her periscope is visible above the surface unless you have aircraft shadows enabled, in which case the shadow will be visible from above.
The VII Boat is equipped with a full panel. She has a compass, nav panel (must be in GPS mode to have knot meter
function), rudder trim and a full GPS gauge.
The VII Boat can be launched in missions from any water runway, but is most easily launched from one of my sub
tenders (most notably the Invisible Tender), all of which are available here at SimV.

This folder contains two separate ship models, one of the frigate at anchor with no sails and one of her with full sails on a port tack. Each is in it's own ship folde, so you have two ships. This is an original model of an 1860s sailing frigate based on those of the US Navy, but she can be used in any navy of the world at that period, as all had similar ships in service.

This file contains two original AI ships for CFS2. Both are fast-sailing clippers that were developed from the original 'Baltimore Clipper' concept of a narrow beam, deep draft and a lot of canvas. They flourished in the period 1800 to 1855, making fast crossinga of the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian oceans on the tea route to China. Clippers came in many sizes, but generally ran from 200-300 feet in length. Some clippers remained in service up to and during WWII.

This is a generic US Tender that can be used for seaplanes or submarines. She has a special DP and CFG that allow her to act as a 'Launch Carrier' for any player seaplane or ship such as the VN Gato. When a player aircraft or vessel is set to 'Takeoff' from the Tender, it will appear in the water on the starboard side ready to 'fly'.
The Tender may be used as a moving ship or scenery object. When used as a ship to launch seaplanes or pilotable vessels, her speed can be set to 0kts, or she can be moving.

This is an AI only missile for use in Mission Builder to add realism to Vietnam Era missions. The missile is an extension of the SA-2 Ground2Air Missile project, and it operates the same as the SA-2, with the exception that it represents an Air2Air missile. Instructions for use in Mission Builder are the same as those contained in the SA-2 download. The AA-2 Atoll is identical to the AIM-9 Sidewinder, and can be used as such.
