- The Sukhoi Su-27 Flanker
-
- ------------------------
- To Install the program, run INSTALL.EXE.
-
- To play the Su-27 Flanker demo, run SU27.EXE.
-
- The program will start as a self-running demonstration of a mission that
- has already been recorded. You can either watch the entire mission as
- recorded or you can enter the cockpit at anytime and take control. If
- you choose to fly the mission yourself, be aware that for this demo you
- will only have about 10 minutes of fuel. Of course the commercial
- release of this product will provide the user with more fuel for
- missions. If your aircraft should be destroyed the demo will continue
- to run allowing you to view the other aircraft as they fly their
- missions.
-
- If you press the Esc key while the demo is in progress, a message will
- appear asking you to press:
-
- Esc - to resume the demo
- C - to continue flying and fighting on your own
- X - to bail out
-
- You can also switch views while the demo is playing the recorded mission
- using the view command keys listed in the CONTROLS.TXT file. Once you
- have used the view keys the recorded views will no longer take place and
- the demo will be seen from whatever view you select.
-
- When an aircraft, ground target, or missile explodes while you are
- using an external view, the simulation will zoom out to give the
- explosion more perspective. You will need to zoom back to view aircraft
- and other objects in more detail following one of these automatic zooms.
- You can control the zoom for external views by using the * key on the
- keypad to zoom in and the / key on the keypad to zoom out.
-
- To quit the demo at anytime use ALT+Q. To pause the demo hit the S key.
-
- This demo automatically initializes the joystick, if any. However, only
- two buttons will be enabled on the joystick, regardless of its type.
- These are the trigger (fire button) and the weapons selection button
- (the top button), if any. While this simulation can be flown using
- only the keyboard, a joystick is highly recommended.
-
- You may or may not hear sound effects with this demo. The sound drivers
- used are limited in this early demo version and may not work properly with
- some soundcards or soundcard settings. The default for this simulation is
- Soundblaster 16 or AWE set to 220, 5, 1.
-
- See also the file CONTROLS.TXT for additional keyboard controls.
-
- The file SU27.ADV is included to be used with the Thrustmaster Weapons
- Control System Mark II.
