I don't think dumped is the right word here. My take is that Third Wire either supports a game or not. There is no in between. And it is primarily because customers do not understand and do not accept half-support, but they surely understand unsupported. As soon as TW openly shows a limited support for the SF2 games, like a Windows 10 update, there will be customers complaining he does not support it enough. Also I have some things I could write down here as bug-fix wishes, but I just get cought up in my memories of the last years of SF2 development, where TK wrote how things should be simpler instead of realistic. Game and not Sim. IIRC he at some point suggested automatic landing gear up instead of manual. Then there were many complaints about missile effectiveness in SF2NA which was addressed by making player missiles stronger then AI missiles in June 2012 level. I am on May 2012 level because of that. I do not blame TW to have priorities that differ from my wishes. I think TW priorities were at that point not personal anyways, but about customers and sales. Or maybe they were personal a little, because the original course was just to hard for Devs. Modders and bolt and nut counters make very annoying customers already, but when beyond that there are not enough sales with increased costs , then one has to change course. With that in mind I can only imagine some small patch for SF when it is totally clear that it does not imply much, and it is just for fun. But wheter or not it is fun for TK, no idea. It is not my business either.

Can't believe it took so long. Can't believe how great it slowly becomes...

Just maybe a little off topic, but has anyone ever compiled a list of what we lost and gained at each patch level?

Hi ravenclaw, any chance you could release these if their done? Cheers, dan

+1. This frustrates me too. I think that it's due to the weapon loadout of the strike package. Purely AI flights no longer seem to be able use LGBs/EOGBs so will not drop their ordnance on the target, leading to the flight continuing on until they get shot down, crash or reach the map's edge. I've even seen it happen with "dumb" bombs when there's been more than one mark of bomb - IE if they're all carrying MK82s you should be fine but having both MK82s and MK83s on the aircraft too can lead to the same issue. (if I'm incorrect then feel free to correct me, I'm basing this off my own observations and several posts I've seen on this forum).

Mike Dora just posted some outstanding shots taken at Old Rheinbeck Aerodrome. One more plugs into the theme for the new series of FE2 aircraft.

ok i got it to work , problem is that you have to renumber your StationGroupID so that the left and right inner pylons have there own ID number , this may work on A-4 or A-7 but not on aircraft like the F-4 because there are all StationGroupID used already dont know if it is worth the work ???

small problem , all the aircraft i try to test the launchers on have no separate left and right pylons but that would be necessary to get them work are there any aircraft with separate left and right pylons ???

Ravenclaw that's what I desire,I hope you'll make also a LAU-10 variant!Any ETA? And thanks all guys for the answers,I'll try Svetlin suggestion ASAP,probably not before the next week-end. Gianni

i will , but you have to wait until i have solved my computer problems , that may take awhile , dependent on the manufacturer of my graphics card imagine this , you have to buy a new graphics card and after 4 weeks this new card is broken , then you send it back to the manufacturer and you wait and you wait and you wait but no graphics card is comming back i´m waiting now almost 5 weeks and my computer is only running with onboard graphics , thanks a lot ASUS
