For people having the "missing D3D9_26 dll " , just download the latest DirectX and all will be fine.

I´m using Win XP at this time and still suspicious about Win 7 and my old games like Il2 and Rfactor not functioning properly on it. I have been playing SF series since initial launch and the screenshots that I saw don´t clarify to me if I will have graphics or gameplay gains if I do the upgrade to Win7 and buy WOV2 and WOI2. What about to play WOI2 in Win XP? Are there noticeable graphics changes vs Win 7, because DX10 shaders? Thanks in advance for replies.

The 9-L was so dangerous at that time that it gained the nickname "Wish me" missile, because all was needed are to "wish" the enemy dead.

No, it isn´t just you. C´mon guys , ROF team launched their sim in an unfinished state. Do the same, go for the open code model , letting the comunity help to expand the game and you will have a winner, I asure you. Just see the loyal base of fans ( me included) that TK has.Do you remember Strike Fighters when it was launched (sad...) and what it turns to be today?

The effect is fine to me, really. I´m asking only because I have seen this effects in a video here and it seems to look better than what I remember. I realize that impression was because the video shows the tracer effects from a external point of view, and I play only in internal view, and with all the head shaking by TrackIR use.

The new tracer effects are inside the 1.30c mini patch or there are other, "unnoficial" one?

Yep, I confused the magazines,that´s for sure.The important is :you are doing well , what means we WILL see JT in the near future!(I´m a selfish little bastard,I know ) Please, tell us when the History Chanel episode goes to the air! Keep the good work and :a video?

Hi,Dante. Does you have any news like a video or possible release date to us? Maybe it can be a good thing to keep the fire between those that are not following the JT developing. BTW, I read the "Sucesso" magazine ,about ThunderWorks studio,you guys are doing really well, congratulations!

I vote for a realistic aproach, following the laws of physics. And not forgetting appropriate ejection sequences.Please not repeat the sad ejection of WOE/WOV.

I have killed 9 in one mission using the Twin Vickers Tripe in campaign,full real DiD.(with auto-mixture on) The tripe is untouchable by Albatrosses,if you keeps turning and count with some luck, you can do the job. The thousand rounds helps a lot. Sadly I was killed four missions later in a nasty side slip stall... Doesn´t had too much time to cheer myself after having the kills confirmed...

Hmmm... Are those german pilots from Village People?

Yes,I´m Flying DiD too, but I have to say that I saved my pilot once, when I exit warp and the plane enter so violent spin that my right wing was ripped off. To me this isn´t a normal situation, so I saved him without pain in the heart. I´ll try to reach the 25 kills score and retire him after this. I´ll try the german side after this ( don´t like it very much , I find german planes a bit heavy,with excption of Dr1 of course. And the new medal system looks really great!

I´m flying with RNAS as usual ( I love their planes) Now I have a 21 kills confirmed and received four DFC.There is no other medals, or this is a bug that repeats the same medal all the time? Anybody knows what kind of medals we have in game by service and what´s necessary to earn a medal? I think a DFC is earned for each 5 kills, am I right? But I´m not sure if this is realistic or if was this way in WW1.( an English ace with a 60 kill tally had 12 DFCs?)

Yep, it seems that is nothing ou there in early 1916.It happens to me too. I think this is caused by the OFF stable not been complete at the moment,it will probably fixed by adding new early planes in the future. Try a campaign started in august/september 1916.There are more activity then.

a)Sopwith Camel b)Supermarine Spitfire c)Mirage III C

I would like to say something to you OBD guys. The most part of people here are veteran combat sim players , I suppose. We have experienced a lot of flight sims in the last what?fifteen years. Your masterpiece are been compared to us against nothing less than Il2,RB3d,EAW ,Aces of Pacific,red baron and some other sims and guess what? You are on the top of the list with your sholders against only the best. This is no easy to reach.For me you are a complete surprise.In a month , I have your team in my mind in the same height of Oleg maddox, for example. In many ways even better.I was resisting to buy your game because I hated so much in the past CFS3.It´s a mistery for me how you guys achieved to do a Picasso from a grafitti in the wall. THAT is talent, nothing else. I would like to say:we need you in the market.Now and in the future. We just can imagine what you could do with a more modern engine.You have the raw material to be the best in market for years and we all support you in whatever you decide to do. PS:put more videos in the net in other flight sim sites.Your videos convince me to buy OFF the first time I saw it.

I would like to say thanks to your all.The frame cap fixed the image freezing in the first atempt. I will try higher frame cap settings until reach the limit.

I use to kill everything , including the anti-virus before to start the game.I think the Frame Cap might work.I´ll do a try when I leave the office today.

is there a fix for the constant locking/freezing suffered in game? I have a good system Intel core duo E 8400 with Ge Force GTX 260 and 4 GB RAM, and I am able to reach 18-72 fps (18 over airfield) I have no graphics problem with settings 5-5-3-3-5-2 , with the exceptio of the occasional freezing in the image.The interesting is that the game continues to doing his calculations, because when the image unlocks, the plane "jumps" to another location and I learn to manage the stick trying to guess a way of not "jump" to a nose down position( died one time because this) I read something about a "Frame Cap" that could solve this. Do you have experienced this and knows a solve? Thanks in advance.

I take-off from Droglandt airfield going to Defend Airfield Patrol.Reaching Rougefay we engage the at least eight enemy A/C .I started to turn like mead, doing rolls, half-loops , firing every time any aircraft enter my sight without too much planning. I couldn´t fire more that two secs at time, because at least one or two Albs was trying to gain my six everytime. I was seeing enemy aircraft crashing in the ground but was not able to say if the was really my victories. In the end of mission , I had no clue how many I had shot down, so I fill the claim with five victories, expecting to down the bet until the claim was accepted by OFF manager. I was staggered when all the five kills were accepted!So I was doing after mission review when I discovered that I actually had shot down NINE Alb DIII! The maximum kill tally I had was three, so I know that probably will not happen again. But was really great and the fight is so great in this game, that you really feels rewarded. I cannot praise enough my beloved Tripe twin Vickers, what a fighter!

If you finish don´t liking the Camel at all, try the Tripe Twin Vickers, one of the most dangerous machines in OFF skyes.

I find it easy too and I know that I am not better than anyone... It makes me think that the trick may be going soft with the stick. If you are naturally careful to fly any crate you might not be entering in dangerous situations related to the flight envelope? Or maybe it is just waiting to killing me in the next turn...

But,Uncleal , I would like to add that after proper training,you CAN fly it without fear, but you have to learn the tricks.Yes,using the rudder in turns is a great tip, and becames natural with time. It´s not difficult to master it to any experienced flight simmer here.In real life they throw the poor young pilots into combat with 17 hours FLIGHT time(not COMBAT time) It´s like to fly this beast without having previous experience with ANY flight simulator at all. With the little difference we don´t have to risk our lifes...

My Camel pilot died yesterday with 6 confirmed and 4 pending,DFC, in 8 missions. He falls in a combat against 6 Albs , had downed two before taking shots from three more on it´s six. Probably they cut me a cable, because I lose aileron control.It was difficult not to ending the mission to save my pilot, but I fly DiD, so I let the man find his fate. The Camel is so agile , that in normal fight conditions you are out of range of an Albatross.You can turn on a dime, it climbs very quickly, and the two Vickers helps a lot in finishing fast your opponent. I can fight one versus two Albs without too much fear,(not WITHOUT fear), usually bagging the two. The range is about 333 miles, so good that I fly with 60% of the tank in most missions. And, yes, TrackIR4 will help you a lot because upward view is not very good.

Yes, I put an Eindecker down once that plummet slowly to the ground.I was after him, just having the sweet taste of victory,waiting for the right spot of crash to fill my claim form.It ignites a flame, only seconds before impacting .It really looks like real life, indeed. Cheers to all devs efforts, here too!
