Installation...
---------------------
1) Copy the contents of the "To_Mod_Folder" folder into your mod folder and over-write if required.
2) Update your "...\Flight\SOUNDLIST.INI" with the contents of the "Add F16 SoundList.txt". Please don't forget to maintain the number sequence in the sound list.
3) Check, ensure (or update) all the squadrons in this pack is in your "SQUADRONLIST.INI" file. Once you look at that file, you will know what to do.
* Please note that some squadrons may have multiple CO planes, this is not a mistake. Rather than just picking one CO, I am respresenting all the COs for that squardon during the period. So both COs could pop up in given scenario. I rather have them than cut them so...it's only a game...
* Tweaked and Tested by the ODS30 team!
* Mod Direction and Optimization - Menrva
* Additional Data and Weapons improvements - Yakarov79\Viper63a.
* Additional Sound tweaks and updates - Guuruu.
* Accurate Skins and Decals - Viper63a\Coupi
Thanks and Enjoy!
