KSC Canaveral Missile Row Version 2

This add-on overwrites the stock, Config / Earth / Base / Canaveral.cfg file in Orbiter.
This version has some extra features over the stock base:
The old stock base (Spaceport) is moved to a better position (Not across a road.),
Most of the active and historic launch pads in their numerically correct positions on Cape Canaveral Air Force Station launch current and historic spacecraft from their correct pads,
Both Shuttle Launch Complexes LC 39 A and B,
Most of the support buildings on Merritt Island and CCAFS: - KSC Industrial area, KSC Visitors complex, Around the VAB, Canaveral Air Force Base and Launch control blockhouses.
In fact this base contains 1814 objects and 53 new textures.

As with some of my previous bases, this base has two versions, Basic and Enhanced.
The basic install requires Kev33's K-LC-39-Rep-v2 High Res version of the Shuttle Launch Complex.

Also required are Benjamin Smith’s SLF Mate Demate Device and Orbiter Processing Facility.

OPF http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=1317
These need to be installed before this add-on as I used these for LC 39 A and B, the OPF and the SLF MDD. These are needed for their Meshes and textures. There is no need to install those add-ons Canaveral.cfg files. Otherwise I used mostly stock Orbiter meshes for the extra buildings on Merit Island and on CCAFS.
The Enhanced version uses meshes and textures from a series of brilliant launch complex add-ons written by Kev Shanow (Kev33) for most of the active and historic launch complexes on CCAFS. Links and installation instructions are included with this add-on.
The Canaveral.cfg file is arranged so that all the launch complexes can be enabled and disabled easily. If you want an `historic` KSC most of the `Shuttle Era` objects can be disabled. Even have Apollo Era pads instead of the basic install’s Shuttle pads for LC 39 A and B.
Thanks again to Bill Mullins for his Satdish2 and Geodome meshes, José Pablo Luna Sánchez for his indispensable Surface Base Wizard, which made the whole thing possible and Google Earth for all the hard data.

Eric H Andersons (Sputnik) CVEL Titans v1.34 is used for CVEL Titans missile Row Scenario. Other scenarios use pad 11 for LC39A, so Pad 7 is used in LC11 position on CCAFS.
