  1. The weather is awful this year! If everything else was OK... You were just unlucky, normally this time of year is IMO the best for vacation in the Islands. In mid summer the heat and humidity and in August the winds are sometimes unbearable... especially in the Aegean Islands though, not the Ionian you've visited. If you went in Cephalonia by boat you must have visited my hometown Patras, (the port). My house is just opposite Gate 1 of the old harbour, 500m from the dock of the Cephalonia ferry. My grandfathers village is of the mountainous ones: Komitata. I spent the whole season from May to October '07 in Cephalonia, restoring the wall paintings of a chapel near Agia Efemia. I went for swimming to Myrtos every day!
  2. Hey Wayfarer, where did you go to to Cephalonia? It's my grandfathers village there...my origins.
  3. This is a great new feature, I would say legendary, Lothar... I'm afraid though, with the current AI the casualties figures may be unrealistically high...
  4. Thanks, Olham! Dr. House is over after 8 seasons... Sherlock's trailer looks thrilling! I'll check it out ASAP...
  5. I've done the WOOF mistake before, huh? From what we've seen tent lighting looks possible... Would be nice to have, although not of primal priority...
  6. Thanks, any news about the new AI Weight Mod, compatible with the latest FM?
  7. I came to OFF from RoF too, corsair and at first, I was really frustrated from OFF's limited options in screenshot taking. Also with the constant kind of 'fisheye' wide camera lens, which prevents close ups, without significant distortion at the screen edges! I usually use Chase view for my screenshots, I find the view a bit less lens distorted. As Olham suggested I pause the game, cycle through views, rotate using my stick's hat switch and when I find the desired pose, I take the shot via Fraps. Anyway, close ups is not OFF's strong point, the environment and feeling are, so... BTW, you are doing fine job with your screenshots, man! In that Albatros shot you've captured so well the planes' very soul... The wooden fuselage looks so great I could smell the varnish...
  8. I think Hasse is right. BTW, I'm using the new FM in my new RNAS 8 Campaign without any of the preparations for aces skins to show up, as I thought there were no RNAS 8 aces skins for the N17, but I was wrong! "Flying along side Edward Duncan Crundall" I have to further investigate this... Anyway, waiting for the AI Weight compatible with the new FM Mod.
  9. FYI, I don't believe that the Greek Phantoms (and F5s as well) had received their Aegean blue scheme yet in '76. I think it was introduced in around mid 80s, inspired from the Mirage F1 air superiority scheme...
  10. Great! I would like to be able to use my radiator too... (any info on that, BTW?) Why those handles were modelled on the Albatros radiator for, after all?
  11. I have his books on MvR and Hermann Goering. Very interesting! Thanks, Olham!
  12. Indeed ! One more little point to add on the increased kill numbers matter, is that for the economy of gameplay-fun, our virtual pilots see much more action than the average real ones ever seen... Also for the same reason, the AI is programmed to fight with no self preservation in mind...
  13. If you could shift, a little, the decal tone from plain black to the dark grey side, the decals would blend better with the skin...I guess
  14. Impressive, indeed! :clapping:
  15. I have the 4 DVD set... But you had seen that footage before... http://combatace.com/topic/68401-albatros-production-line/page__p__530812__fromsearch__1#entry530812
  16. It is old enough, Olham...from 2003! Narrated by Kenneth Branagh. I have got the 6 DVD set since 2005. Some parts of it are, already on You Tube... I remind you the MvR staged Dr.I take off, with the obviously camo streaked triplane, 'repainted' red by the digital colourists...
  17. Wow, that's so Great! Still having fun with the older ones!
  18. I have already set ObjectsFade=True, but still... IrfanView would have been great, but Photoshop is OK... Thanks!
  19. I tried the new tiles yesterday, but my game became unplayable, (a frame every 30 seconds). My old Sweden weighted 430 MB, while the new one 1,13 GB! I'll try reducing the size of the large files, should I save them in a particular way?
