=========================================



This mod will change your handling.cfg to allow you to fly as high as you want in a skimmer and much more and it will also change the skimmer sounds into new jet sounds to make jet mods sound better. (audio editor included.)


First: Backup your handling.cfg in your vice city \data folder and your SFX.SDT file in the vice city \audio folder incase you make a mistake while installing or if you wish to revert back to the orignal game settings.



Installing the High Flying Handling:

Open handling.cfg which is in your vice city \data folder with notepad, find the line that begins "SEAPLANE" and replace it with this: 

SEAPLANE       5000.0	1.00	10.00	0.80	0.00	0.00	0.00	5	0.65	0.90	0.50	1	320.00	45.00	4	E	0.01	0.15	0	24.00	3.00	0.75	0.20	0.20	99000	0.10	0.00	2.00	0.00	840004	0	1

Scroll bown at the "planes" section and again replace the line that begins with "$ SEAPLANE" with this:

$ SEAPLANE	 0.0080		0.60	 -0.00018	0.006	0.10	0.0025	-0.007	0.0002	0.0080	0.005	0.100	1.0	0.998	0.997	0.990	0.0	200.0	0.0

Save and Close Handling.cfg



=========================================



Installing the Sounds:

Open Lithjoe's GTA3 audio editor, which is contained in this package. Find the SFX.SDT file in the .\audio folder and open it up. Select Options and Unclick Auto-Rebuild (Or else it will rebuilt the archive every time you add a file). Scroll down the list until you reach sfx00461, replace it with the sfx00461.wav file included. Do the same with sfx00462, replacing the old file with the new one. Select File, then Rebuild the archive.



Flying instructions:
=============

- Buttons: (Just like the original skimmer seaplane)
	 Arrow up	-->	Speed
	 Arrow down	-->	Reverse
	 Arrow left	-->	Turn left
	 Arrow right	-->	Turn right
	 Num 6		-->	Lift up
	 Num 9		-->	Descent
- Athough you can reach high altitudes, it is prefered to keep your flying close to the ground to get a better behaviour from your aircraft. If it seems that it doesn't react properly, just lower a bit and raise again.
- The game seems to have a trigger so that you won't go flying around off the map of the city so when you are in high altitude you will see that you have a descenting course without being able to level with the Lift button. This is normal. Just release the speed button for a while and keep pulling up, it will eventually comply when on lower ground.
- The landing at the airport is a breeze, but be careful of obstacles when landing on roads. Although this is a seaplane you can take off from the groung relatively easy, just hold the Up and the Speed button simultaneously.
- You can make numerous manoeuvres like flips and rolls and turns but as in a real aircraft there is always the danger of falling down.
- If things get tough, you can always use the eject option, and leave the aircraft while on flight! This is a rather impressive feature. If you use it on the top of a skyscraper, you will see your aircraft fall while you are safe on the roof...
