  1. What Wrench said. Sometimes, before you post a problem...you might want to check that you HAVE a problem first... FC
  2. Have you actually tried to get it to work? Betcha it works... FC
  3. Looks like specific weapons to me. So you could have a long list if you have fairly liberal limits on that weapon station. However, if you've already tightened it down, the list should be short. FC
  4. I keep forgetting about that one! Nice... FC
  5. Also, realize that computer generated single missions will have this problem. Campaigns can help with that by limiting what weapons a squadron get supplied with. In addition, use the loadout.ini to help limit weapons. Finally, don't just use loadlimits, use diameter and length limits as well. I'm always a big fan of limits to avoid weirdness when I can. However, realize that this is still a computer program, and as such will still have limits as to what you can do (or can't do as the case may be). Other solutions such as country specific weapons or station codes for everything have resulted in massively, never ending weapondata.inis, usually not worth the trouble to write. FC
  6. Reverse engineering of LOD files is frowned upon. FC
  7. Pair of Su-27's collide

  8. Do you think military service should be mandatory?

    Bullcrap. We already exclude folks from voting (felons, under 18, non-citizens, etc). You are already under the whim of the government. It's called the law. You break the law and get caught, you suffer the consequences. You also missed the point of the service does not have to be military. It could be anything that your particular abilities allow you to do...but what matters is that you serve the country, and not yourself for a term of service. Hell, Americorps isn't a bad option. Again, why should a person be allowed to have the power to directly shape society while contributing nothing to it except noise? FC
  9. There is no importer to import LOD files directly into MAX. FC
  10. Any Tron Fans see this?

    Old news my friend, old news... Known about this since the Comic-Con last year when cell phone video of the trailer showed up. FC
  11. Do you think military service should be mandatory?

    SaE hit it right on the head a la Starship Troopers style. Don't make it mandatory, unless you want the right to vote. Think about it...in a free society, the right to vote is one of the strongest rights you have...you can literally change the direction of the country by voting. So why should such power be given away just because you live here. How about with that power comes learning some responsibility. And it doesn't have to be military service. But it must be some service where A) It isn't easy and B) You are at the whim of the government for a few years. Also, the right to vote should not occur until after successful completion of your term of service. In other words, you can't vote unless you're a civilian. FC
  12. As far as I know, the sim doesn't model variable intakes or engine failure due to disrupted airflow. You can simulate intake ramps of course (the F-15 series is a prime example). FC
  13. Well, I can tell you, for my midrange computer...polys for aircraft really isn't the issue as much as textures. Polys help of course. Anyway, I think you'll tend to find high end is 40k polys, 20k is comfortable. At least, that's what I've seen. FC
  14. Hudson River collision video

    Too many times to count...I hate that whole section of the country because of the congestion. FC
  15. Another selfless hero has fallen.

    Thank you sir! S!
  16. Yep, I'd say that's exactly the problem. FC
  17. I'll believe it when I see it. TK's stuff actually does make it to release... FC
  18. Hudson River collision video

    Interesting. There have been these sorts of collisions before where a 'high wing' and 'low wing' aircraft don't see each other because each is in the other's blind spot. FC
  19. Lockerbie bomber most likely getting out

    Screw him. Let him rot. FC
  20. The funny thing is, TK sims are tailor made for this conflict...little to no avionics, but lots of jets. Also, there just isn't too much competition in this area (Mig Alley was the last sim dedicated to this era of flight), but is considered a watershed in the history of air combat. Here's hoping! FC
  21. Tofu

    I grew up with tofu and have seen it in all consistencies...even used in a pie (good pie...seriously!). Anyway, I typically like it cooked with a bit of crust and pretty spongy texture...the only time I like the less firm type is in soup. FC
  22. And it shows in the quality of your work...thanks for that! FC
  23. Your first question I've sometimes seen happen if a cockpit entry is tweaked the wrong way. I don't remember the details exactly, but I think it has to do with the CanopyNodeName parameter...something like that. FC
  24. Screenshots would be useful. Also, type of aircraft, consistency across aircraft, etc. would be useful info to have. FC
