Ouch, some drones are quite expensive and not meant to be hitting utility poles. The video quality makes me think of the old training drones we had ten years ago.

This is the problem concisely. If you put an obstacle in front of people, they will use every means necessary, thought of and not, to circumvent that obstacle. I call it rat in a maze syndrome if that's even proper terminology. Just like the southern border wall in the United States, if you build it twenty-five feet tall there will be a store that opens on the other side selling twenty-six feet tall ladders. If you build the same wall with a footing ten feet deep, someone will tunnel eleven feet under it. If you build the same wall fifty feet tall with an unscalable surface constructed out of concrete and rebar, someone will grow a giant sequoia tree next to it, wait fifty years and use it to scale the wall. There is no obstacle that can't be overcome, that is the genius behind brain cells.

Yep, seriously. I thought the topic was something more relative to CA so I clicked it only to find out it was about another game you've been watching YouTube videos on. I laughed and typed "click bait" with a thumbs up emoji. You then send me a PM telling me to delete your account. SMH

That is the greatest and wildest story I've ever heard, but how neat is that? Personally, I don't know a single person who could ever claim they have an entire drop tank in their basement.

Yes, AdSense has been making huge changes and cluttering sites globally with horrible ad placements. As advertisers we can no longer place most ads. AdSense places them on our site based on a bunch of factors for visibility. I have been submitting support tickets for months trying to get this cleaned up but when they fix one thing, they break something else. If we didn't need the ad money for the site, I'd pull AdSense completely until they fix it. I'll send you a PM but thanks for letting me know. Erik

No takers on the traceroute?

Data center is asking for trace routes from all your machines to us. Post them here or send them to me via PM. DC claims the issue was resolved earlier today but if their upstream is still having issues they need detailed reports.

There's something going on with the routes overseas but it's out of our control and our data center's control. The data center knows about it, but they are helpless to do anything as it has to do with long haul fiber carries. Remind me in a week if it hasn't improved and I'll bug them again. Until then sorry about the load time. E

Y'all are a bunch of newbies, fresh as a baby's backside. Thanks for sticking around so long, not sure where the time has gone. Cheers

Makes you wonder if a Tinder profile seeking women whose prior husbands owned a CNC Machine and it's gathering dust in the workshop would get any traction. I mean the number can never be zero right?

With a little desire, a few miscellaneous items, a 3D printer, a CNC machine, a room dedicated to your new build, and a fresh divorce you too can build your dream. Trying to be helpful of course. https://openhornet.com/

1994's version of the family grocery getter, what a smoke show that was back in the day.

Finally, someone who speaks their fucking mind.

Thanks for the notes, you can all breathe now. Our security certificate expired and needed to be renewed. I would have done it sooner, but we needed to change providers, and I couldn't begin the process until today. If you have an issue accessing our site, you have a stale SSL Certificate. To fix it, clear your browser cache, restart your browser, and re-open the site.

Sorry for my late reply, I'm doing a bit of traveling and access to the internet has been far and few between even now I'm having to proxy around the globe to get back to the USA. Isn't 2024 fun? Rhetorical question. Anyway, we don't offer any auto renewing subscriptions. You must manually approve every subscription before it is deducted or charged to you. I do this because I don't want to have any complaints about auto renewing subscriptions. In your case you had generated two invoices for the trial membership and they were both unpaid. I have removed them both from your account. You can verify this by clicking on the "Store" tab > Manage Purchases, your page should be blank. You can start a new purchase at any time but if you stop in the middle of purchasing a subscription go to the Manage Purchases tab to resume instead of starting a new purchase. I hope that makes sense. If there's any issues you can always contact me directly or here on the forums like you did. Erik

It's safe to try if you make backup of the original ODS file, then put the other in place, and start the game to check. If you need to you can revert the file to its original. Additionally you could compare the files to see what's different between the two and then make a file by transferring in the hotas required parts only. There are comparison editors out there to download and use.

I would try using your home connection. The failed downloads I see are coming from a mobile network that you're using. I can do a lot of things but diagnose a mobile connection coming from Europe, not something that's going to happen.

Can you hum a few bars? I might be able to recognize it that way.

It's vaporware and for a small fee you too can believe in the dream. Membership comes with a free hat and your own personal key to the Branch Davidian safe house.

Well done and welcome. Any friend of of Trotski's is a friend of ours.

I'll try to walk you through this. 1. Download all four parts of the file. I put them on my desktop so it's easy for you to see, but you could put these files anywhere you want as long as they are in the same folder (directory) on a drive. 2. Make sure you have the latest version of 7zip installed. Go to https://www.7zip.com/ and download what you need. Install or update as necessary. 3. Make sure you have all the required Thirdwire Strikefighters 2 games installed and patched correctly. 4. Go to the directory where you put the downloads. For this instruction set they are on my desktop, I can move the install files after I've installed the mod. Right click the main file ODS_30AE.zip and choose to Extract to "ODS_30AE\" ** NOTE ** My right click menus look like Win7 on a Win11 machine because I hated the new right click menus in Win11. Your Windows will not look the same as mine but should function the same. 5. You should now get a new folder called "ODS_30AE" in your directory or desktop like my example. 6. Double left click that folder to open it. You will get a view of the contents in the file explorer window. 7. Right click the ODS_30AE.ISO file. From the menu that appears you can you do two things. Mount the ISO which we will do in this example or Burn the ISO to a CD like we used to do in the old days. 8. Select "Mount" and you will see that your computer mounts the ISO just like it's a new drive on your computer. For me it appears as new DVD Drive (F:) Operation Desert Storm 9. Double left click the "installer.exe" and follow the onscreen instructions. 10. When you're done installing you will need to unmount the file. Open the file explorer window where you double clicked the installer.exe file. On the left right click "DVD Drive (F): Operation Desert Storm" and chose "Eject" 11. Now you can move the files anywhere you want for safekeeping. **Note we did nothing with the files ODS_30AE.z01, ODS_30AE.z02, ODS_30AE.z03. The installer needs those files but you don't need to do anything with them other than have them in the directory where the main download file is. I'm sure someone will do this differently than I do and if I need to update my instructions I can, just let me know. Be nice I'm not much of a computer guy. And just as I finish this tutorial you got it to work. Glad you were part of the 95% and the installer is fine, which I suspected. E

I know this book. Your conclusions were all wrong TKE1028man. @Trotski acted stupidly. Bonus points if you can name the movie.

Lower your settings to the lowest setting possible, even if your machine should be able to handle it. Play the mod at the lowest settings and see if it CTD. If it does not, then the engine is overloaded at the higher settings. This can be from things like selecting the wrong video card in the settings or selecting auto for some of the settings. There are very few issues with the mod, 95% end up being user error. Since this is an ISO file I don't know if there's a readme in the folder, I haven't looked, knowing @Menrva it's there. All the things that would be in the readme are in the mod description including the potential fixes for some issues. I suggest you start there and read it thoroughly, this is just a snippet of the text. After all these years I still have no idea why these support topics are posted in the file announcement or in the comment section of the file. We have a perfectly good place to keep all the support tickets if we could get everyone to use it. Go to the file on the right big green button it says, "Get Support" which is a slight bit under the "Download File" button. E
