Wodin

What about the engine pistons and the reload lever? Oh and the ammo boxes?

Thats in a fair few books...women eh?

Just had another close up look of those screenies...the more I look the more I like....I hope we have abit more animation going on within the cocpit...also abit of movement going on within the Bus, so you feel like your a separate entity to the plane ( not sure the technical word for it but FE and RoF do it well) If First Eagles can do it I'm sure OFF phase 4 could....this is also an area where RoF shines....really makes you feel you sat IN a plane.

Ok I will take one tomorrow and post it up...

I saw TK mention that as there are decent WW1 sims around now it isn't worth pursuing anymore. With all the User made models around then it's no real bother...though I reckon some tweaking is needed.

I do love the lightness of this WW1 sim. I play OFF and RoF so this is a nice break especially from RoF. However my main concern is the FM. I was just flying a camel that lost it's upper wing and I could still fly around...I even took on a Pflaz...have experienced the SE5a losing one wing and still flying aswell...I use Peters FM...a shame the FM couldn't be coded so that when you loe a wing you go straight into a spin and hit the deck... I do enjoy the easy flight characteristics (I use Hard setting though), it's just things like this spoil the immersion factor... Is it best to use the original FM's for FE2 for the planes that came with the game? Thanks

Listen I'd bet Duke will be the big dissapointment of 2011...nothing can match 13 years of anticipation....and judging by the trailer I'd say it looks standard FPS fare...with some quirky nut bashing...that will I'm sure soon become old hat... Duke was the first game I ever played multi player...me and my mate shared a house and we linked up our PC's...for some P vs P action...great fun...

You can see where he got some of his inspiration from when in the trench....thats when he started formulating the book...also has catholic undertones aswell.

Ok I got the black plane now when in the cockpit...I also copied and paste the skin folders from the AlbIII to the ALBII folder....yet still no skins...I can choose them from the loadout screen but the Bus stays black. Oh also looking at the black plane it seems the top left aerilon is sticking up any ideas...

Yeah it's strange when in the cockpit all I can see is the cockpit and guns (oh and upper wing struts that are attached to cockpit) yet when I do an out side view I see a black Bus....thats what threw me to be honest.

In no particular order....all are must haves for me...CM:BN would probably sneak top though... 1. OFF Phase 4 2. Red Orchestra 2 3. Combat Mission: Beyond Normandy 4. IL2: Cliffs of Dover (want to see reviews first though)

I have a different sound I want to use for when the plane gets hit....I have FE2 and have it all set up to add Planes etc so I use the C:\User etc etc folder. I've added new clouds with no problems aswell. However I have a sound I want to use when you get hit instead of the original...I called it DirtHit and put it in the sounds folder (I was replacing a previous mod) now however I hear nothing at all when I get hit....any Ideas? Also how come there is no sound for a dodgey engine and also why is the RotaryEngine sound listed in the Sound.ini? Fianlly is there anyway to turn up the engine sounds? Thanks

Strange your view is distorted.... Anyway yes I always check out the duty room....you also nee to check that your wingman doesn't bugger off on leave and you don't notice and put his name down as a witness....everytime I set off I do a copy and paste job on my wingmans name...

Thanks all sorted.

I heard mixed reviews about the film...I did watch a new Aussie movie Under Hill 60 I think it was called...rather dire with bad acting...I didn't like The Lost Battalion either....I believe peter Jackson is going to make a WW1 film after The Hobbit...he is a WW1 obsessive and started up Wing Nuts models...so we would get authenticity from him...The crossing the Line vid he did wasn't a film he was just doing a short as he loves WW1 planes...in prep for a proper film I believe. Favourtie WW1 film if Fields of Glory...the battle scenes where years ahead of anything at the time...in fact the D Day landings in Private Ryan where inspired by that movie...

When you shoot down an Ace and get it confirmed is the Ace then taken out of the campaign...or can you meet him again? If he isn't taken out of the campaign and you do meet him it's a big immersion killer....so if it isn't implemented maybe it's a good idea for Phase 4.

Twice enemy and once wingman...he decides to attack the Bus I'm having ago at and hits me from the right rear...

Is there anyway to replace the addon plane gunner graphic (In the add on plane two seaters) with the gunner graphic used in the original FE2 game? Thanks

I've downloaded and installed all the extra planes on the SkunkWorks site. However I can choose and fly the planes I've downloaded but when starting a single mission using the create mission option I have no other flights to fight against...I even choose the BrisFit and no planes to fight nor allied planes except my flight...help please.

I have had three of my best pilots...(all with around 14 hours worth of time) killed due to an AI Bus smashing into me coming from no where...that really hurts..still not hit the 17 hours yet due to this...

Peters FM is only the FM it doesn't actually have the plane files included...however you will be able to fly any AI planes that where included in the game...

I shot down two aces in one flight the other day....Emil Schafer and Kurt Wolf....Manfred and Lothar was there too. I managed a few hits on Lothar before running out of ammo....Three missions later Emil turns up and shoots me down...revenge

Everyday at a certain time, since the end of WW1 (Apart from '40-'45), unexploded ordnance is blown up in France.

I'm using Peter SE5a FM. I've witnessed on a few occasions now SE5a's still flying along after an upper wing has been shot off....not sure if it happens with the stock FM or not... Also I tried to crash land an AlbVa (on one wheel) The Bus finally went over at about 22 MPH and exploded like a bomb....anyway to change this so the Bus might just break a wing rather than blowing to kingdom come at 22MPH.... Finally is there any way to darken just a touch the spinning prop as when it's full speed I can't see it. Thanks

Is there anyway just to keep the targeting cone but get rid of the red box around the plane? Thanks
