Thrustmaster T.Flight HOTAS X is my recently purchased joystick. It is a solid looking piece of equipment, precise, plenty of buttons, regolable spring tension and a 5th axis on the throttle that could be used as rudder or as a custom one. And it comes quite cheap at around 40-45 Euros http://www.thrustmas...asX_IL-2-UK.jpg Anyway I still have a Sidewinder Precision Pro that after some 11 years is still solid as rock and very precise. A true jewel. Very, very happy with it. :-) http://www.hartware....ews/90/oben.jpg

Just to know.... is the Z-buffer conflict still present at airfield? What I call "quicksand effect" with structures and parked planes that disappear below the airfied as you climb.

Sicuramente è un complotto dei professori per far si che non possiate partecipare a manifestazioni dove la vostra materia di studio è mostrata in tutta la sua bellezza al posto di insulse formule teorico-matematiche. E a loro gli rode. Va beh, dopo questa sparata conviene a me scappare....

For sure! :D

Pretty FR Hunters Paolo! Go ahead! I doubt they had a viewfinder but for the gameplay purpose it could be done pretty easy. Maybe as external cameras with frontal or oblique oriented ones.

Oddio... forse sono la persona meno qualificata quà dentro a parlare di F-16.... Comunque, hai provato a sfogliare nella sezione downloads? I biposto son sicuro che ci sono anche se ormai come modello sono vecchiotti e forse pure i block 25. Gli aerei di Mirage Factory sono più recenti ma si fermano al block 15 ed MLU.

Ti scuso subito se mi arriva un biglietto per il museo. In caso contrario ti offro un volo con la Mistral Air con ai comandi il suo proprietario arrabbiato.

Yes, is possible but is a rather extremist solution. Setting the pylons where fuel tanks are attached as not jettisonable. But doing this prevent you or AI to jettison the tanks in case of emergency. just as an exhample: [LeftWingtipStation2] SystemType=WEAPON_STATION StationID=3 StationGroupID=1 StationType=EXTERNAL AttachmentPosition=-3.281,-0.175,-0.263 AttachmentAngles=0.0,-2.0,-10.0 LoadLimit=650.0 AllowedWeaponClass=FT AttachmentType=NATO ModelNodeName= PylonMass= FuelTankName=Tank170F-104 NoJettisionTank=TRUE

Eh si Gabri, è il tuo 737! Mettere gli Hush kit ad un MD-80 è un' atto criminale!!! O forse inutile? A320 + colorazione rosa e viola = Per l' aereo postale lascio il quesito ad altri altrimenti è il Giorgio che si arrabbia con me. Comunque splendida giornata ieri. Grazie.

Usually the transparency and reflection of the canopy or any other mesh is set with 3DSmax when the author create the model. So unless the original max file is aviable for an update of the lod files it could not be corrected.

File Name: QF-104A File Submitter: Spillone104 File Submitted: 22 April 2011 File Category: SF2 Series Add On Aircraft Lockheed QF-104A Starfighter for Strike Fighters 2 The QF-104A was a special modified version of the (Y)F-104A Star-fighter which could be flown remotely controlled. The control was done by F-104 pilots on the ground or inside another aircraft. The conversion of the (Y)F-104A to QF-104A was approved on 19 Februar 1960 by the USAF. Testing of the QF was conducted during the period of 9 Januar 1961 to 16 October 1961. The reason for converting the (Y)F-104A was the need for high altitude, high mach targets for the development of ground-to-air (BOMARC) and air-to-air (AIM7 - AIM9 - GAR2B - MB1 - AIM4) missiles. At the end of the summer in 1972 the QF-104 drone program had come to an end and the F-104D's were handed over to the Puerto Rice ANG which could use them very well. All of the personnel that were in the QF-104 program were reassigned to other duties and bases. In total 24 QF-104's have been used by the USAF. Twenthy of them were actually killed as targets and 1 crashed while flying a manned mission. The pilot ejected safely. What has happened to the other 3 aircraft is not known but it is very likely that they have been withdrawn from use. In total the drone-flight has accomplished 162 unmanned missions. Most of the QF mission were flown at Eglin AFB. However, some were flown at Holloman AFB (NewMexico) and a small number at Point Mugu NAS in California (for the US NAVY). The QF-104A were of course different from the normal 104’s. The most important modifications/changes included (in reality there are a lot more...) : 1 - The QF-104A received anti-skid brakes. 2 - A smoke-generator was applied (JP-4 pumped into the exhaust). 3 - Remote control system to fly the aircraft unmanned. 4 - A dayglow paintscheme was applied. It was an “eyecatcher”. Originally the aircraft serial numbers were painted white. This was unsatisfactory as they were not highly visible against the dayglow. For that reason they were changed to black lateron. 5 - A special system which is able to make in flight air-starts remotely. In fact several were successfully made over the years. 6 - Due to the high-rate of stall problems with the GE J79 3A engines the QF was repowered by the 3B version of this engine. This solved the stall-problems. 7 - A self-destruction device was mounted on the QF for emergency reasons. This device was remotely controlled 8 - A changed cockpit layout to support all typical QF-104 systems. 9 - Additional gun-bay and case storage fuel tanks. 10 - Optical (5) camera scoring system. Three camera’s were located in the nose radome and 2 could be found inside the left external fueltank. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pilot Notes: The default nation for this plane is USAF "friendly plane". Inside the QF-104A there is a folder named "For Mescalero Proving Grounds", if you want to use this aircraft with that mod simply replace the data.ini file. Now it will be a "red" target. :'( ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Installation: Simply copy all the files in the respective directory of your game folder.

Auguri di buona Pasqua ragazzi! @ Mau: Lo sai vero che purtroppo o menomale abbiamo anche altro di cui occuparci fuori dal contesto modding/simming. E poi oltretutto è festa. (detto tra noi, durante le feste c'è mortorio anche nella sezione downloads) @ target92: Benvenuto a bordo :-) Per skin particolareggiate cosa intendi? Mancano le decals come numeri e insegne di reparto? Ale.

Happy Easter guys!

Sorry. I made a mistake with the ini of the FakePilot. Please correct the entries in the FakePilot.ini like this. Distance was set at 30m. Damn wrong! [LOD001] Filename=FakePilot.LOD Distance=3000 Alex

Certamente Svetlin

Yes Coupi. New WIP based on the Ajunaidr F-104A plus many, many parts added by me via "fake pilot" and new skins. And last thing the dedicated wingtip tanks. Hopefully this should be ready in few days. Ale
