I think all you have to do select avionics to 'Hard' in the Options panel...something like that. Of course, I believe that gets rid of most of the targeting boxes and cones as well... FC

That's an excellent thought! It'll be great to see if that works! FC

All bets are off at that point. FC

Sometimes the CCC can override what the game is trying to tell the screen and so mess up what you are seeing. Try turning just the CCC (Catalyst Control Center) off and see what happens. FC

You haven't said what your computer screen resolution is. Match the resolution selection in WOE with what your screen is and you should be fine. However, make sure Catalyst isn't jacking with your settings as well. FC

Excellent! I'm thinking, can you add heavy and small aircraft parking slots? That way we can test static aircraft functions... Just a thought. FC

What the f*** is wrong with people...seriously. Did they think that there wouldn't be consequences? Simple punishment after a short time in heavy work prison...tattoo 'Dumbass' on their foreheads. Have them wear THAT for the rest of their lives. FC

Hmmm...lets look at those articles in detail shall we? Really? In the rest of the article, the only thing addressed by this statement is the relationship to the UN. Nothing else in this first statement is mentioned other than the general "hundreds of other items". Nothing on civil rights, slavery at all. Specifics please. Dumb...why did they even bring this up. Doesn't matter to me either way, they both reference the same thing. The UN, like every other organization, is not perfect. Now, specifics on 'undermining US sovereignty' might be a bit far, but why shouldn't we put the UN under a microscope? We certainly have been putting US history and policies on the dissection table lately, seems only fair to me to do the same to the UN. Okay, there are 2 statements here. First statement says "strengthened the requirements on teaching the Judeo-Christian influences of the nation's Founding Fathers". This could be interpreted as either "the basis of moral authority from which the Constitution was derived" or "the Founding Fathers wanted this to be a theocracy". Maybe it's just me, but I'm pretty sure it was the former...using guidelines and examples from history and their own lives, including Christanity, to develop what became the Constitution and the US government. The second statement is "attempted to water down rationale for the separation of church and state." Note the first word...attempted. Seems they were unsuccessful...imagine that. The US Government IS a constitutional republic (as is most modern "democracies"). The US Dollar has declined in value, and the US abandoned the gold standard a long time ago. These are both probably true...and not new critiques of any educational system. As far as the UN article goes, lets again look at the statement..."efforts by global organizations including the U.N. to undermine U.S. sovereignty". Again, this does not assume that they have been successful, and the US does have veto power. What it might suggest instead is looking at instances of UN actions working directly against US interests. Could this be considered an 'effort' to 'undermine' US 'sovereignty'? Maybe...each instance would have to be evaluated on it's own. For all the 'fear mongering' being thrown around, I see a whole lot of nothing here...no other specifics are mentioned. If they were, maybe we could evaluate what was actually passed a little better. The whole "UN" thing might be a little overboard...but certainly they should be looked at as sternly as US history and policies are...seems only fair. FC

I don't know any other users of the F-16 who use non-droppable tanks. As far as why, I have heard simply it's because any fighting the Sufa would do would probably be over Israel and they don't want tanks dropping on their heads. I have no idea if that's true or not. As far as the loading screen issue goes, it now makes sense. The CFTs and center drop tank are two different kinds of fuel tank. Because the sim always tries to load the same thing for every weapon groupID, when the loadout.ini overrides that, you'll get what you see in the loadout screen. FC

Welcome to the forums. The external fuel tanks not dropping is intentional...Israeli Vipers were designed that way. The loadout screen issue means that for some reason the hardpoint shouldn't accept the fuel tank, but the loadout.ini is overriding it. You probably have to compare the weapondata entry for the specific tank and the weapon station entry in the data.ini to figure out why it won't normally load. FC

It's funny where you find yourself using SABC. Back late last year, we were driving back from Houston when a pickup lost control about 200 feet in front of us and rolled several times. It even got airborne...so I wasn't expecting much left when I got to the driver. Surprisingly though, he was actually intact and awake...he had worn his seat belt (about the only smart thing he had done...we suspected he had been drinking). The only injuries we could see were some cuts on his arm where it was hanging out the window. Anyway, myself and an off duty policeman were able to take care of what we could via SABC...until the local medical response was able to arrive. Glad to hear you still have your skin.... FC

This is one of the reasons why 70% of pilots at my job don't actually live in Memphis... FC

That seems like an odd question to ask a prospective employee. I'm surprised if that was a requirement, that they didn't state it up front. Now, coming from the car crazy US, it is unusual to know someone who has never learned to drive (not necessarily not own a car...a lot of city folk I know don't own one because it's a pain to find and keep parking, insurance rates, etc, etc). Before spending the money to buy a car (especially just for the potential of an interview) I would recommend spending it on driving lessons and getting your license. You can always buy a car if you need to...and, although the rules can be different, usually once you get a driving license through the practical test, you don't need to take another practical test when renewing again (usually just a written test). Again, I don't know the rules for the UK, I'm just going by my state's rules. FC

The answer is still no. FC

If the Hellfire variant you are carrying is laser guided, you must have a laser designator, either built into the aircraft data.ini, or a pod. Otherwise, they won't work. FC

Personally, I think it's a bad idea (a non-moving stick). There's a reason real aircraft use sticks that move, even if only a little. FC

Short answer:Yes. FC

Well, it's more or less a biplane with no wingtips and therefore no tip drag. However, the wing ends (for lack of a better word) would be heavy, and not provide much except lateral stability in an odd location. FC

First, TURN OFF THE CAPS! It's considered yelling in a forum. Second, right now the gunners are hard coded to only go after air targets. You can make missions making 'fake' air targets like ground targets to simulate that... FC

Heh...pretty sure Sony will give the USAF some special dispensation...for a small fee... FC

I would recommend this model instead. http://forum.combatace.com/files/file/8375-fa-18f-super-hornet-new-model-v15/ FC

Kevin, Yes, you can reinstall DX9 with no issues...DirectX is smart enough not to overwrite newer files. FC

Which F-18F...there are 2 of them. FC
