Short vid of Croation mig21`s...Awesome low pass....note the engine of 131, Light grey Chequer has a spluttering a\b on take off....I want a Mig 21. might be bird ingestion as green gets a burp on low level run. at 1:51 ..if your quick youll sp[ot it.....doubt its a technical fault as the Croation Air Force are renown for top quality Maintenance

I've made some new skins for this bird and then I realised that this very old thread exists I need to find some other fuel tanks for this aircraft because the original ones are too wide, change the canopy glass tint to something more reallistic (this blueish hue looks weird) and work on some loadouts. The grey skin is one of the original skins with changed decals. Both green skins are loosely based on contemporary or historical Su-25 liveries and the blue one is quite free interpretation of a skin @EricJ once made for the MiG-29.

Had some free time to try out gTerl's latest ver. 2.1 of the Caporetto terrain on the Mac and this map is great. This time I booted into the Mac side of the Mac Pro (2013) so the pics. below are from FE2 in WineSkin. Some things to tinker with for those running FE2 in WineSkin on a beefier computer - freely increase the resolution from 1600 x 900 to 1920 x1080 in the options. ini file as I did, force DX9 on (with the "True" command) - since WineSkin doesn't like DX10 for some reason - and force v-sync off. Average fps are around 50-60, not bad considering that the Mac side doesn't even take advantage of video crossover so I was only using 6 GB of vid-ram on a single FirePro card, plus I'm running it in the WineSkin wrapper too. Obviously it's better on the Windows side but I think it looks fine even at medium graphics settings as in the pics. below, and it's easier to set up left/right stereo sound on the Mac side for further immersion. Von S Nothing worse than seeing your flight mate going down in a fireball (I was flying the E.III here since the E.II, my favorite, is not available historically in the Italian theater) Managed to get a pesky Bullet even though the E.III is slower The Bullet's pilot eventually bailed out, with no parachute, once it turned into a fireball Managed to put another fellow into a stalling flat spin but didn't bother to strafe him gTerl's 'dromes are worthy of some nice sight-seeing Note to self, do not admire enemy airfields in FE2 in the future (two Nieup. 12 were coming in for a landing apparently, or had snuck up somehow) I prefer getting two-seaters from below, just in case the observer is a good shot He glided off and eventually made a fairly smooth landing Didn't bother tangling with the other Nieup. 12 but got out of there as soon as possible, to admire more of the scenery NOTE: some of the trees in the pics. are from Geezer's enhancement pack for the Italian terrains, available under the New Aircraft thread (can't remember the page now) - also used is the higher quality flightengine.ini file from my FM update pack, still giving decent frame rates if the graphics settings are kept at medium, in WineSkin.

New coastline tiles for BoB terrain rework (WIP). You see the differences between new and old tiles. Maybe the "Seelöwe" is landing till X-mas.

Kuz is firing Shipwreck missiles on Nimitz. (missile launch position is not correct. WIP) first missile salvo missed the target, was flying over the deck second salvo fired this time one hit. and sunk

Super good! Fill the Channel with ship convoys for our delight. My Stukas are ready!

Wild Weasel & Rolling Thunder fame aside, this is the environment the Thud was designed for...... ........and managed to outrun the shock-wave

In the meantime it is possible to include satellite imagary in tiles.

Shipnames and tactical numbers are now made as decals. Position and size are not perfect, its just a try.

Bye bye, Boris!

Kuz is firing unguided rocket from depth-charge launcher (ASW weapon system) at enemy ships.

I like it ! Screenshot needed

Belgian 4K. I love this plane. It was already a crappy morning when I left; dark, rainy, lots of people wanting to shoot at me. By the time we got back, conditions han't improved

What about the Skoshi Scorpion?
