This missile is useless to me in WOI. I never managed a kill with it so, I realized that I probably not firing at right envelope. Somebody had good results lauching it?

Is it possible at this point to release minimum specs ( playable, not bare minimum)?

No, we will see both of them in the future, they are not dead.The time is passing and simulations are becoming more and more complex to coding (million and millions of code lines) They are demanding bigger staffs, much bigger budgets and of course more time to be completed, because our upcoming "for fun"simulations will be more realistic than military simulations of few years ago...Just see the case of GT5 from Poliphony Digital, 4 years are passed and they need 1 year more to deliver the complete game.The lead programmer has told that each car demands 180 days to be modeled, and the game are supposed to have 1000 cars... We have to deal with the reality of bigger intervals between generations of flight sims or , just pay bigger prices on them, to allow even bigger staffs to complete them faster.But, I don´t think the market is prepared to do this...

It´s important to me to stay clear to all, this post was not started as a critic, but more as a compliment to TK and his effort. My question about him doing next generation flight sim was because I feel we have few talented and passionated programmers like him capable to create really interesting flight sims.(not too arcadish ones,like Ace Combat) I´m glad to see, this is an effort that probably will have future childs, if we support him in his work.

With the natural ageing of the Thirdwire series , and the release of next generation flight sims like SOW, KOTS and Jet Thunder, will we have new flight sim from TK with new engine and graphics? Any comments from him about this?

I don´t know if I agree ... It isn´t the same thing, but is very rewarding to see the enemy pilots bailing out under fire in Il2 for example... I think it will be nice and probably add to imersion to see enemy pilots ejecting from her Migs after having a SW on their tails...

The new WOI patch made the FM and AI even better,making me not willing to fly in WOE anymore.( I finished two flights of Su7 with my Lightning and the bastards don´t do anything to avoid me, only flying straight to death) So, anybody knows if the previous games will be updated?

"Goofy,cowardly hiding pilots" Man, this is funny...

I´m flying the Mig 21MF in the extend stock campaign for WOI.When I installed the Mig 21 MF add-on cockpit , have noticed that the canopy stays opened all the flight, but only in external view. The pilot also stays seated not in the cockpit, but placed more to the rear , almost inside the fuselage. Anybody knows a way to fix this?I try to change the cockpit open mechanism in the INI , changing AUTOMATIC_SPEED to MANUAL, but it doesn´t work...

I think will not to be easy in a real conflict to any pilot survive for more than a few days. The pilot´s hability are not a match for last generation missiles. That´s the reason because I think the seventies and early eighties are the date limit to model combat flight sims that are really fun for us. Just because you can´t dodge a MICA,SRAAM,AMRAAM or last generation Pythons forever...One,two times with lucky , ONLY if you have one missile a time against you. That´s the reason I droped LOMAC, because it was really frustrating.Impossible to finish a campaign , for example. BTW , I´m not a newbie to flight sims, started on the old days with FS 1.0 ( in glorious green phosphorus screen,remember?) Maybe, TK could add a little more deep in his next generation combat flight engines , but maintaining all the great fun we have now.

Thank you Charles, I have downloaded already. But, I have a problem with the campaign not showing at the menu.I put the Blood April file in the "campaign" root , and all the others files as instructed in the read me, but the game is not "seeing" Blood April as a valid campaign. Can you help?

When I try to fly the Gotha , I always have a blue screen.I´m assuming this is happening because the data ini is listing the cockpit as the Fokker D7. I downloaded my file from combatace, before it was removed, but I think the cockpit was missing.I don´t know if is too much to ask you the files I have to extract to make a cockpit file so the gotha can work?( I sincerely don´t want to violate any copyrights of your beautiful work) Thank you.

I have won those beautiful Iron Cross ans Pour le Merite medals , but I realized that there is no place where you can stock it to see later. Am I right?

Thanks ,vickers, I will send the e-mail to capun.

As everybody here, I want to thank you for all your hard work in doing this models. I think you could be working in the game industry if you wanted to. How can we register in your site?I can´t find a link to do it in there,and I am really interested in your models.

They are missing in the missions/campaigns download area. Somebody knows something about it?

Well, I had so many blue screens of death playing LOMAC , I think of it as "LOMAC the real bug simulator."

Can you send me Fe2B.zip by e-mail ? I need it to Firecage plane fest 4.1 Thanks. lbuchele@pop.com.br

I am thinking about to buy FE , so what I have to do? Buy FE and mod it , or FE+EP? Have no idea after reading all this discussion!

I´m flying with the Hunter and that´s a real killer turning fighter. "Jet Spitfire" as they said. How can I use the Hunter cockpit founded in WOE?

I have read about the use of HOBOS by Kfir in some books, mut really don´t remember what kind of Mavericks it used... I think you really have a point here,because using the radar screen to launch a TV guided Mav probably isn´t very realistic... So, some little details, but the fact is : for me this is a incredible fun flight sim, and the interesting is that the skies are even more unfriendly in WOI that it used to be in IL2 for example.(well , SAMs do a hell of a job, isn´t it?)

I was looking for the Kfir_data file, and apparently it cannot to be edited like WOE/WOV. Am I right? Looks like TK has choosen to "lock" some stuff to not allow modding...

I´m flying the Kfir in Lebanon War, and can´t find AGM-65 or GBU 8 HOBOS in the loadout screen. I´m pretty sure those weapons are standardt weapons for the Kfir, so, why are their missing? I´m using the latest Mirage factory weapons pack.

Thanks for your help, I will try the process listed in the link.

I don't know about any user made campaign with this A/C , so I was wondering if it is possible to fly in a stock campaign in WOE, and how to do it? I don't find a specific answer in the knowledge base, so I'm limited to fly in single missions.
