That's it exactly i'll bet he has one folder that says F-111 instead of the 5 or 6 different folders that he should have.
+Paladrian Posted June 22, 2006 Posted June 22, 2006 The F-111 is a great addon .... but it kills my precious fps!! I wish it was redone with performance considerations
Guest Saganuay82 Posted June 23, 2006 Posted June 23, 2006 The F-111 is a great addon .... but it kills my precious fps!! I wish it was redone with performance considerations Resize the F-111 BMPs with Paint. Do that or do the ini change. Won't be long before somebody posts that.
xrearl Posted June 23, 2006 Posted June 23, 2006 F-111 Cockpit web page!http://www.schmidtwerner.de/products/e_f-111_pit.html
+Dave Posted June 23, 2006 Posted June 23, 2006 The F-111 is a great addon .... but it kills my precious fps!! I wish it was redone with performance considerations If we did that all the time there would be some crappy looking planes out.
super61 Posted June 23, 2006 Posted June 23, 2006 The F-111 is a great addon .... but it kills my precious fps!! I wish it was redone with performance considerations Hi Fellas, Sorry to pileon w/a newb question, but one poster suggested altering the F-111 bmp file in order to reduce the fps hit. Once the bmp is opened for each file in paint, do I then save it as a 16 bit (from 24 bit in my instance) to get the desired effect? Thanks, super61

Thanks, super61 No, you resize it not change the bit of it. go from 1024x1024 to 512x512
+Paladrian Posted June 23, 2006 Posted June 23, 2006 Thanks for the tip, it didn't cross my mind and it might help :) .... and if not, well I guess I will learn to live with it

Papa_K Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 (edited) For those that are new at this (like me), here are all the F-111 parts: 1. F-111's are at the link below. The readme tells the steps needed. http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autom...mp;showfile=917 2. F-111 Cockpit: http://www.schmidtwerner.de/products/e_f-111_pit.html 3. Sound files required for F-111 - from F-14A. (If you've already got the F-14A in the same install of the game where you'll be putting the F-111's, no need for this.) http://www.column5.us/aircraft.shtml Papa_K Edited June 28, 2006 by Papa_K
+Dave Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 Dont forget my Vark skin packs. http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autom...mp;showfile=923
Papa_K Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 (edited) Thanks... just downloaded those now too. I've had this game series for only a couple weeks now... One thing I've noticed is that a backup of SFP1/WoV/WoE plus all the accumulated download files now almost fills 2 DVD's... it's a fast-growing space hog. Papa_K Edited June 28, 2006 by Papa_K
