  1. I'm seeing the same thing on my blog... FC
  2. Plus the AI can't do zero G combat. There was a thread a few weeks ago about adjusting the gravitational factor. I'm not trying to squash your hopes, but there really isn't a good reason for TK to add space combat capability to the engine. There are SO many things that need work instead. But if you want a taste of what space combat in the TW engine could be like... http://forum.combatace.com/topic/26637-as-of-right-now/page__hl__snouts FC
  3. Thread edited. Sieben, I don't know who pissed in your Wheaties and I don't care. Keep your comments civil or find yourself gone. FC
  4. Go to the Options menu, Controls, Customize. There you will see a list of keyboard commands, and you can change them if you need to. FC
  5. Uh uh. No, no...there's a difference. See, I have no problem with popcorn movies...I enjoy them immensely. I mostly stay away from Oscar movies after the debacle that was American Beauty. The Hurt Locker seems to be a rare exception...a movie that is entertaining, while still making smart commentary on the human condition. If Avatar had marketed itself as simply an entertainment movie, I personally wouldn't have a problem with it. And it probably would have faired the same in the Oscars (ie awards for being pretty if not deep). The problem was that the plot was meant to make social commentary (as admitted by James Cameron himself)...but did it in a VERY clumsy and contrived away (really, the only supply of unobtainum within the reach of a race capable of interstellar travel is under one tree on one moon in one solar system?). And a plot about 'harmonizing with nature' done using probably the most advanced technology ever used for a movie? I could state other obvious weaknesses...but I digress. And I disagree...the folks who looked at Avatar knew exactly what they were looking at...that's why it didn't win awards for anything but SFX and art. FC
  6. Talk to EricJ...he's the one you want to ask. FC
  7. Let your nerdgasms begin boys... Trailer #1 Trailer #2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwvhW0ulclA FC
  8. Happy Birthday bud! FC
  9. It's certainly possible. The T-38 has such a gap in the front gear door, the current Super Hornet has something similiar. FC
  10. FastCargo

    Burn Notice

    Yeppers! No spoilers...we haven't seen the season ender yet! FC
  11. Yes... What, this didn't clue you in? or who the article was written by: FC
  12. All Northrop 2 seaters bump mapping 'activated'...expect an upload soon. It will still require a skinner of considerable talent to make the most of it... FC
  13. Not necessarily. If it's a 3rd Party LOD file, they may have used a different 'world center' for it. FC
  14. Unless you're missing something from your stock install, you're probably ok. FC
  15. The British pilot centers may be different from the original pilots listed in the data.ini. You may have to play with the Position= parameter to adjust them to fit within the normal area. X, Y, Z is the layout in meters, where X is left/right, Y is forward/backward, Z is up/down. Right, Forward, Up are positive, Left, Backward, Down are negative. FC
  16. There has only been one 3rd party model where you can switch cockpits 'on the fly' so to speak. I believe it's Florian's M2000 on this website. Otherwise, there really isn't additional utility gained by flying from the back seat...except for some perspective on how hard it can be to fly from the back seat. FC
  17. Skip the patching step and proceed with the rest of the NF4 installation. FC
  18. Or, we can actually support the folks who made the movie. What a concept! Besides, YouTube quality sucks. FC
  19. Nice to see someone willing to step up and take their lumps as well as their accolades. Congrats to Sandra Bullock on the Oscar! FC
  20. I was happy for anything other than Dances with Smurfs. FC
  21. http://oscar.go.com/oscar-night/winners?cid=10_oscars_gridLayout_livenow The Hurt Locker kicks ass at the Oscars...6 wins, including Best Picture and Best Director. So much for shiny effects and bloated budgets with egos to match. I don't mind a popcorn movie, but please, don't try to dress up a vapid, uninspired storyline in a shiny, technological wrapper and try to pass it off as something deeper than it is. Congrats to The Hurt Locker folks! FC
  22. That's funny as hell...I had just read today about his newest video tirade that had just come out. And then right after that, he gets his ass captured. Wonder how that works... FC
