FSX Mission--Space Shuttle Launch. While you have no control over the actual launch, once at 800,000 feet you can take control. By Ron Jeffers.
The setup is simple..just copy the (Microsoft flight simulator x) folder here and overwrite it to where you have FSX installed on whatever drive you have it installed. If not sure..then find your (Microsoft flight simulator x) folder and copy and paste all the folders from this ((Microsoft flight simulator x) folder into it and overwrite if needed..no FSX default files will be overwritten..but you may have one of my sound files from a previous Space shuttle installation.
Then..start up FSX (From a FRESH boot only) as there are animations and effect timings involved.. And go to (Missions) and load the mission (sPacE shUttlE launcH 08 fSx). You will have no control over the Launch..(Houston) does that..so just go along for the ride.. but once at 800,000 ft you will be given info as to if you wish to take control or continue the ride. There are no rewards in this mission.. it is just a space ride..and it took the FSX missions tool to make it work. For Freeware only..but ok to mirror to pay sites.
Thanks.
