A great effect of firing the lewis guns when airborne can be easily added. The they are "stubbed Out" with a "//" in the panel.cfg file in the panel folder.

***** BACKUP ALL FILES BEFORE STARTING THIS PROCEDURE. *****

To get this effect, download Stuart Green's Pfalz DIIIA "SG_Pfalz_DIIIA".

From that file.

For the gun sound effects, put the file "dsd_xml_sound3.gau" in your GAUGES folder and then put the two files "dsd_wwi_guns.wav" and "dsd.ini" in your flight sim SOUND folder.

In the sopwith camel panel.cfg.

[vcockpit01]
// gauge02=dsd_xml_sound3!dsd_xml_sound3, 0,0,1,1, ./Sound/dsd.ini
// gauge03=guns!wwi_guns6, 0, 0, 1, 1

Please remove the "//"

Thanks!
