1. Tornado Hello World!
Mod: Hello World
By AH
Link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/zbqp5g6hpvdy09x/FLIGHT.EXE?dl=0
Instructions: Make a backup of your tornado folder and then replace the original FLIGHT.exe in the /FLIGHT/ folder with the modded FLIGHT.exe. Then go to game, start a flight and press F2....and check if you see anything new... ;)
Screenshot:
Notes: See bottom-right corner of the screen. Now that's different!
A very minor and trivial change to Tornado, but nevertheless, a very good start.

2. Gear up with shudder; Good Landing tire/rumble sound on good landings
Mod: Hello World
By AH
Link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ox1yonguqzeaxbf/Flight_08_02_2017.zip?dl=0
Instructions: Make a backup of your tornado folder and then replace the original FLIGHT.exe in the /FLIGHT/ folder with the modded FLIGHT.exe.
Notes:
08.02.2017 Added a small cockpit shake when lowering or rising landing gear. A nice touch!
08.02.2017 Added tire touchdown/rumble sound (placeholder) when pilot makes a good landing.
Frankie:
3. Whole lotta shakin' going on
Mod: Pilot and Navigator screens shake throughout flight
By AH

Instructions: Make a backup of your tornado folder and then replace the original FLIGHT.exe in the /FLIGHT/ folder with the modded FLIGHT.exe.
Note: prolonged usage of mod will induce headaches and eye-fatigue. This is again proof-of-concept and exists as work in progress.
New features:
(model.asm)
08.02.2017 Added a small shake when lowering or rising landing gear
02.08.2017 Added tire touchdown sound when pilot makes a good landing
12.08.2017 Added cockpit shake effect for normal flight
Significance and future enhancements:
Shaking of the cockpit at the right time and circumstances will make the simulator more immersive and realistic.

Hi Frankie,
In the right dose I think this effect would increase the realism, especially for missions flown when visibility is restricted such as night, fog and flying in clouds. :thumbsup
And using a "horizontal shake" for turbulence helps differentiate the effect from the "vertical shake" DI used for airframe buffet.
Speedwagon
