+Stary 2,427 Posted January 31, 2009 man I'm getting shot down like Nam '72 over Hanoi the many different types of sam's make it...interesting! Yeah, it's quite hard flying strike sorties there. Very interesting campaign missions must I say. Again, many many TY to the team! BTW, I've uploaded small realistic effects pack (beta) for this mod, should be up soon.

+Stary 2,427 Posted January 31, 2009 And it's up for how long? Here come the vultures. waiting for a GO from Moderators; but it's nothing spectacular, mostly nice bomb effects Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+JSF_Aggie 1,291 Posted January 31, 2009 (edited) waiting for a GO from Moderators; but it's nothing spectacular, mostly nice bomb effects Thanks. You may want to watch making them to fancy. I turned my EFFECTS down to MEDIUM, because the B-52's flattening an airfield with 51 M117's a piece, killed my frame rate for a short time. Crashed my GFX drivers once, when EFFECTS were on HIGH.

Sir, they aren't much CPU hungry... few months ago, testing Czechoslovak S-105, I've experienced a friendly flight of 12 Tu-95s droppin' about 24 bombs each... the trail lasted several miles on the ground... 288 bombs, my system had severe slowdown, but survived. Generally effects in the series are quite flexible, knowing what you're doing. It's up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Viper6 3 Posted February 1, 2009 Great mod! I got the silver star on my second mission. The migs are dropping left and right and the sam's are deadly.I'm doing RECON in the EF-111 and just got shot down from behind by 2 fulcrums made the mistake of picking my nose up off the deck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Viggen 644 Posted February 1, 2009 OMG OMG OMG OMG THIS IS AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!11!!!!!!!!!ELEVEN!!!!!!!!!! Anyway, SAMs are really intense, my F-4G barely made it over the target before getting an SA-9 up the ass. So, I took the F-117A out so I couldn't get killed by SAMs. That bird, and cockpit are awsome. Only problems I'm getting are that clouds and bombs are killing my FPS.

commander 0 Posted February 1, 2009 E-8s are bad to fly when there are migs on your tail. i was able to avoid them for a couple of minutes and got my wing shot off. was able to recover and fly for a few more minutes but had to punch out. I took screens but cant find them at the moment. Anyone else want to try go up against migs in a modified 707? Yes i was folling around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Viggen 644 Posted February 1, 2009 Getting back on topic... Has anyone developed a good way to carryout SEAD in the Spark Vark or Wild Weasel? It's a bit harder over Iraq than Hanoi or Germany. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zmatt 2 Posted February 1, 2009 (edited) those are 747s not 707s sorry for getting off topic I know, but they have another laser in AC-130's so i don't see why they couldn't. But that's beside the point, it was a joke. Edited February 1, 2009 by zmatt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spinners 15,986 Posted February 1, 2009 I've had one mission in each of the following; F-117 Nighthawk F-111F Aardvark Jaguar Tornado Tomcat Awesome skins on all of them. Every mission was outstanding - I'm gobsmacked at the quality of this FREE add-on. Even the medal screen has a touch of class! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Spectre_USA 7 Posted February 2, 2009 I'm doing fair, it is a target righ environment, but my wingmen are falling like flies! The enemy AI is right up to snuff, and with mostly deep strike missions, they have a heyday with my poor wingies who just can't seem to follow orders. One will do something right, and then switch into sheep-dip mode. >Pop< another happy SAM flinger or MiG driver. Prolly go for some solos as they aren't even worth being MiG magnets. Oh, yeah, this one has ratcheted up the difficulty bar a few notches... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fallenphoenix1986 603 Posted February 2, 2009 (edited) Odd, I' having te opposite problem... like I said earlier theres two many bloody eagles lol. One of my wingies is actually doing better than me, the git has 7 kills by mission 4 and I've only got 5... all BVR as I've yet to see a Mig thanks to those *&%$&* Eagles lol. Come to think of it I think I've only had to order them to engage twice. Though I've yet to loose anybody even after having around 40 SAMs fired at us so far. So congrats guys youve faithfully recreated the experience of being a Tomcat driver in the Gulf lol :tomato2: Craig, a seriously under achieving Cat driver.. still enjoying the show though :) Edited February 2, 2009 by fallenphoenix1986 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

triplethr3at 0 Posted February 2, 2009 Just played my first mission in cmapaigne mode. Was in a flight of four f-16C in the middle of a total cluster*^&% of allied aircraft. I had to return with not a single weapon deployed after a flight of B-52s desimated the airport where my arget hangar was located. I was rolling in and the whole airport lights up. Even though i did jack squat the mission was exiting as hell dodging sams and bogeys. NICE WORKS GUYS sweet sweet mod Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
