Does anyone know were I could get a gun effects file for the real air spitfire, Ian W was saying that he thinks one was made.

Any help would be much appreciated.

FSX Gauges--Spitfire Cannon Effect
Name: rcbsc-20.zip Size: 146,136 Date: 04-06-2008 Downloads: 474
FSX Gauges--Spitfire Cannon Effect. This package contains a visible/audible cannon effect plus control gauge, as add-on for RealAir Simulations' FSX Spitfire (payware). The effect is activated either by mouse clicking the cannon switch in the VC, or by a key / joystick button that generates repetitive FSX "Carb Heat On/Off" commands. Includes detailled installation instructions. The package can be used (although with limitations) for simular aircraft as well. By Rob Barendregt.[/quote]

I havent fully checked out the file but will have a look into it ,does it come with its own effect file ? have you put this into the effect folder in main directory ?,if its a cfg change in the aircraft folder only ,it mite mean you havent entered the effect line linking it to the effect it uses ?
just a couple of things to look for to make sure its not a simple text line like it normally is for me ..

OK ... where's the smiley icon for DUH? My brain just timed out after the "gauges" lines winkyy.gif

Many thanks! Works great now - though repeated strafing attacks seem to crash my FSX (and quite right too, laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif).
