    bump :D For a good cause, just lost my father to parkinsons disease. It's a nasty problem...
  3. FarCry works great on my 9600XT, smooth at mostly high settings, granted this is just with the demo, as I don't play too many first person shooters, but had heard alot about this game, so had to try it. Sorry about your experience, it may have been an incompatibility, or a bad driver set, I don't use the Omega's myself as the ATI Cats do a great job for me. Running the 4.4's without any problems at the moment.
  4. Not 100% certain, but the B-25 will not be made flyable until the launch of Pacific Fighters is what I've read, but it's just speculation on my part. Haven't seen it listed anywhere as of yet as a flyable. So much for hoping......
  5. Been watching the Band of Brothers being broadcast on the History Channel this week, and I can tell ya. This really makes you feel for what these guys go through in a real war (at least as close as you can get to it without being involved in it). It's sad that we as a society still can't manage to come up with a better way to deal with our differences than to kill each other. Maybe one day we'll be able to sit down and work out ideas and differences in a calm and rational manner. Great program otherwise, very well put together. Anyway, enuff of that stuff. Back to real life. ;)
  6. Much more solid and loads much quicker than the old site. Keep up the great work. :D

  8. Pacific Fighters, Ubisoft’s new flight combat title, will launch this fall! Backed by the Oleg Maddox team, Pacific Fighters allows players to participate in the most compelling Pacific air war experience ever created. Fly planes on either side of the conflict, including U.S., Japan, Great Britain, or Australia. There are more than 40 flyable aircraft, including the F6F Hellcat, the deadly Japanese Zero, and the UK’s Supermarine Seafire. In addition, for the first time in the 1C: Maddox game series, players will have the option to take-off and land on aircraft carriers during combat. “We’re extremely proud and excited to bring Pacific Fighters to the combat flight sim audience because we know they’re going to be very pleased with improvements to the award-winning IL-2 game engine and enjoy the new Pacific war setting,” said producer Ilya Shevchenko. “Players will appreciate the variety of famous fighters, however, in this title more than any previous Maddox sim, we’re emphasizing flyable bombers such as the SBD Dauntless, Aichi Val, Mitsubishi G4M Betty, and at least four versions of the North American B-25 Mitchell.” Players will be able to target enemy ships, vehicles, airfields and aircraft on one of the 16 new maps, including Guadalcanal, Pearl Harbor and Singapore. The online multiplayer options allow players to engage in live battles ranging in style from free-for-all dogfights to cooperative campaigns. Pacific Fighters Confirmation is there front page at il2sturmovik.com YEEEHAAAWWWWWWWWW
  9. I remember back when the Rippers lost our nutz (A/C 100) in the North Atlantic, Blue water ops and no where to bingo. Sour Tanker, and the A7 that was launched to try and fuel him said he only seen the seats come out of it. 1 F-14 down for running out of gas. Both pilots got retrieved and were okay. (Thankfully) edited to clarify. :D
  10. that unfortunately works for both ATI and Nvidia, guess when you have to write a driver for so many different platforms (which should be a standard base anyway) you never truly know what your gonna get until you do it.

    I'm there for ya. Hopefully that will help a little anyway...
  12. Try a program called HiJackThis Hijackthis that might give you some information Jumpin in before I read the whole thread. Apologies..... SALUTE
  13. Like I said nope no more posts........ My thoughts are out there and you can't change them. lol. Guess we'll just agree to disagree and go on about livin.
  14. Dag, like you know what your talking about...... "note a hint of sarcasm there." :D They can beat each other to death for all I really care. ;) I just don't watch it due to the violence and you know me bud. This thread started over a cheap shot that in the real world would land you in prison for Felonious assault and battery and likely attempted murder. To attack somebody from behind as he did is actually pretty cowardly. Now as I said earlier. To each their own until you stick it in my face. Last post on the subject. :ph34r:
  15. What ever floats your boat. Just beware of the Torpedos that you don't see coming. :D
  16. The quote is jus the problem, 21 again and again and again, well you get the point. I'd have carpal tunnel trying to type that many agains. :D Happy B'Day Snapple.
  17. My worst one was the NET in RB3D. normal, but always at the wrong time........ Don't do too much of the online flying these days like I use to, just lost most of my interest there. Would love to get back the commaraderie of the US95th as it was.
  18. That's the part I don't care about hockey. Violence serves no purpose except to get people hurt. The drunk also said he didn't mean to run over the people, they just got in the way. I don't watch Hockey due to this violence as it serves nothing but to give our kids the wrong ideas. I agree that all sports are becoming way too violent and needs to be controlled much more proactively.
  19. Installed this morning on an XP Pro SP1 w/ 1.01F patch without a problem. Just tried instant action mission and it worked pretty good. This is with a full install. Now to uninstall it, FB Aces is keeping me pretty busy right now. :D Only thing may be to check if your hard drives are formatted in NTFS, mine are fortmatted to Fat32 (Just like ME) :D
  20. In other sports though, when you throw that punch, you are immeadiately ejected from the game. There is no "Time out" for poor sportsmanship. Besides in Football, there is not that much in this kind of violence because of the fines and ejections. I agree with Seawolf on this one, it's what I call attempted murder.
  21. Don't doubt what you say at all, and believe me we do appreciate your efforts. I gathered that information from a website that is probably quite old. It is by no means all inclusive and for that I do apologize.
  22. First things first, I didn't mention one thing about my fathers medals, just pointing out relavance about Kerry's service in the military. Back when Clinton was in office, Kerry didn't see the relevance of his service in Vietnam and was supposedly dissappointed by the fact that Vietnam (service)being brought forward once again to prove the mettle of the man. (Clinton), and now he wants to throw it back up again to prove himself to somehow be better than everyone else. Kerry had three purple hearts that he himself states he missed a total of 2 days work over. Musta been awfully rough, as far as my father goes, I don't know about his service, I have never been able to get him to talk about it and I don't think I ever will. As far as the multinational force, that's about how it's been since we been working within the UN, if the Military is sent, it's the vast majority is funded and supported by US troops. The numbers game just never add up. Nature of support The criteria for inclusion in the coalition, as defined by the White House, are very broad, including mere political support. Combat troops United States - hundreds of thousands of troops, weaponry, money, etc. Britain - 45,000 troops, aircraft, tanks Australia - about 2,000 personnel: a squadron of F/A-18 Hornet fighter jets, three ships, 150 special forces troops, and other weaponry. See Australian contribution to the 2003 Gulf War. Denmark - submarine & warship, and a medical team Poland - 54 combat troops, 74-member chemical decontamination team, supply ship with 56 sailors; total troops - up to 200; See Polish contribution to the 2003 Gulf War. Iraqi Kurdish peshmergas militia - 50,000+ Note: While the Government of Canada does not support the invasion of Iraq without United Nations approval, Canada has military personnel serving under the U.S. command in Iraq, provides six hi-tech frigate escorts for U.S. & British ships in the Gulf, and numerous other technical services. U.S. Ambassador to Canada, Paul Cellucci, stated that Canada in fact is providing more support that virtually all other members of the "Coalition of the Willing". Military support (no combat troops) Kuwait - hosts invasion force Qatar - hosts U.S. Central Command regional headquarters South Korea - 700 non-combat troops (However, the Parliament vote to provide such troops continues to be postponed) Japan - refueling Canadian and Greek warships in the Arabian Sea Chemical, biological, and nuclear specialists Bulgaria - 150 specialists (and airspace use, bases, use of Black Sea port) Slovakia - 69 anti-chemical warfare specialists in Kuwait Czech Republic - sent 400 anti-chemical warfare specialists to Kuwait (and airspace use) Romania (and airspace use) Spain - 900 non-combat troops for medical support vessel for treatment of contamination Ukraine - 532-man 19th Army Battalion deployed to Kuwait, but will not enter Iraq Defense Netherlands - three MIM-104 Patriot missile batteries and 360 soldiers for defense of Turkey Use of bases and airspace Ethiopia Eritrea - use of Red Sea port of Assab Hungary (hosts U.S. base) Italy (not for direct military attacks) Portugal - Lajes Field air base in Azores Airspace use Albania Azerbaijan Georgia (possibly airfields) Lithuania Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia Turkey (after failed negotiations to permit troop deployment) Political support only Afghanistan Colombia Dominican Republic El Salvador Honduras Iceland (has no military) Japan Latvia (may deploy some troops) Marshall Islands Micronesia (has no military) Mongolia Nicaragua Palau (has no military) Philippines Rwanda Singapore Uganda Uzbekistan
  23. When later asked about the severity of the wounds, Kerry said that one of them cost him about two days of service, and that the other two did not interrupt his duty. "Walking wounded," as Kerry put it. "Walking wounded," as Kerry put it. Yep, them cuts while shaving really hurt. :D kidding, nobody said anything about his service, just all the details are not really known. At least I don't. I just know I would never vote for this man.........
  24. Where did this UNILATERAL BS get started. There are over 41 countries in this coalition, but I guess it's only Multilateral if FRANCE, GERMANY OR RUSSIA say that it is okay. My Father did three tours of NAM with the Marine Corp. and I know from experience that some of those medals that the military give out for so called bravery quite often got to the ones that know how to kiss butt. (Not all mind you, but the some of them are.) Don't want to start a fight here, just expressing my feelings.......... This is really hard to discuss without attempting to throw the flame.
  25. Not exactly something to make you think about something to eat, they look quite disgusting..... At least as far as I'm concerned...... Don't have a clue what they are suppose to be though.
