nice work SH! you can almost "feel" an approaching storm in those screenies!

....till the "new" 'Cat comes out....some D models loaded for strike mission

the Hog's in action over Vietnam

i tried something and it worked for me.after doing as the readme says it didn't work, so i left everything the way i had it when it didn't work ,then i erased the gunship folder from the aircraft folder, then i opened up the zip for the gunship and dragged just the gunship aircraft folder back in and it worked!

OMG Dave! those 'Cats are awesome!

i tend to agree with Dave, on the fact that SF2 is superior in every way. i simply cannot believe that i have paid so little for so much in both series. it is very refreshing considering most genre's out there give you short, non-moddable games that cost a fortune. i myself would have paid twice TK's asking price simply because of the tweeking and add-ons that are available here and other great sites. at worst i'm very pleased with both series and have endless possibilities.thanks TK and thanks to all who have contributed anything to the series. btw, i cannot wait for the 'Cat! when its up, i'm buying!

first my mod specs: SF2:E patched to Feb2010 NatoFighters4+ i'm having some trouble with the UH-1B Gunship. i followed the instructions(i have Gramps UH-1H) but when i go to fly, the game ctd's immediately. what i did: i installed the gunship(placing files in their respective folders,running the Weps,Gun editors) then i placed the LOD files and SHD file(from the UH-1H) into the Gunship folder. i pick my skins and weps, hit fly and it CTD's. any thoughts?

i have my SF2:E running with Feb2010 and NF4+ and am not (so far) seeing any problems............yet.

....oh yeah....a Balkan Terrain would be nice also,so i can fly the Tomcats of the VF-41 Black Aces from the Roosevelt into Kosovo!

in regards to the book i am reading:Black Aces High by Robert K. Wilcox. Farewell Mighty Tomcat, i will keep you alive in this sim as your life was cut way too short. furthermore, a tribute to Lt. Bill "Dewar" Dye whom tragically died in an F-14 crash following the squads return from a mission over Kosovo.Betcha i know who God's RIO is.....RIP

1: SAR missions.......bring the pilots back after bailout! 2:better FAC.....mark the targets and the AI will ACTUALLY attack them! 3: COMMS.....i grit my teeth everytime my wingie says "negative,unable to reply" after turning him loose and then ask him to rejoin when i need help! overall i'm EXTREMELY happy with whats going on. i have a tough time keeping track of all the mods i have!

A-4N Ahit inbound for runway attackBOO-YAA!Taking a look at the wonders

ok...Spectre, i'll bite... 1st off, this is an absolutely gorgeous upgrade of the original AE terrain! 2nd: i'm running SF2:E with Feb2010 patch. 3rd: i can fly fine on single mission(no problems at all) however, when i begin the Out of Africa campaign(yes a new one after upgrading terrain) it CTD's everytime. now, i've looked in the .ini's to see if there are any "problem areas" but cannot find any out-of-the-ordinary stuff. and, i also know that the org. OoA campaign was from first gen series. could this be the issue? all of my other "carryovers" from series 1(DS,RT,LB1,LB2..and countless others) work fine even with a great deal of tweaking. i have noticed that the org. OoA(AE data.ini) has nothing below the strategic nodes listing. has anyone here modded the campaign .ini's to allow it to function? if so, can you send me the .ini's so that i might understand more fully.thanks for any and all input, be it helpful or comedic! p.s. i still haven't noticed that elusive easter egg! awaiting my virtual throttling about the ears and nose!
