To install:

  ***** (FS2004 main folder is named Flight Simulator 9) *****

1.) COPY &  PASTE the VIPER folder to your FS2002/04 aircraft folder.   
    

2.) COPY &  PASTE the contents of the effects folder to your FS2002/04 effects folder. 


3.) COPY & PASTE the contents of the gauges folder to your FS2002/04 gauges folder. 


4.) The panel.cfg I have included is made to work seamlessly

    with Eric Marciano's freeware F-16 panel. My Virtual Cockpit 

    requires several of the gauges from it aswell. 

     (View the f-16 panel download info. text document for were to get his panel.)

Optional:

5.) In FS2004 there will be no afterburner visible. However my F-16 is configured 

    to use DSB's Typhoon afterburner effect.

   
      (Please read the text documents named, DSB_afterburner_effect and AFTERBURNER FLAME effect, 

      to find out how to get and add DSB's Typhoon afterburner effect to my F-16. 

      You will find these documents and several other's in the DOCUMENTATION folder)



6.) If you don't like the default wing vapor effect. You can replace it with a 
   
   wingtip vapor effect by using the aircraft.cfg provided in the

   ALT aircraft.cfg folder. (Which is loacted in the VIPER aircraft folder)
