Sky Captain

I've only got WoV, but I'd still be interested.

Ugly? The F-8, ugly? It's almost as pretty as the Scooter! You wanna see an ugly plane, take a look at the F-100. Now that's some uhhh-gleeee piece of metal right there. (Sure can turn, though)

First Eagles looks pretty well done, from what I've seen, but I haven't acquired it yet. (I've been doing some OFF, but I tell ya, that's incredibly difficult Of course, I doubt that WWI was a piece of cake either) But I'd say it's one of today's Top 10 WWI sims. (Which is not hard considering the state of many of today's combat sims)

Just... 51 more days!

*cough* Forgotten Battles *cough* Looks schweet.

lol

Any dates on a 3.0 release?

Funny, I was able to install it just fine without changing any folder structure or renaming anything.

Yeesh, you guys are all so complicated. Download the F-104G patch for Strike Fighters Gold (I forgot where, thirdwire should have it), install, and enjoy.

Yes, yes, I know what it was saying, but I had my speakers turned down. Plus, my ears are strange like that - Play something over and over again, and it sounds totally different to me at the end.

Wow that's just FRICKEN AWESOME. On a side note, by the time the warnings stopped, all together they sounded somewhat like "Over G, on a Duck, Over G, on a Duck, Over G, on a Duck..."

Wow! Have they modeled random engine failures into the game too? Did you accidentally move the mixture all the way back? I find that's an effective way to cut the engine, which definitely comes in handy after landing. Nothing like making a perfect 3 pointer and running into a tree to make you eat some humble pie.

With or without the helmet?

Wow. Oh well, it looks pretty good to me with everything at medium, I can't imagine how it would look on a NASA supercomputer with everything on full. Ah well, I'm satisfied if the plane looks pretty. Everything else is just a target anyways.

I'm not sure about the answer to the second, but I'm fairly certain that Phase 2 overwrites some files for Phase 1 (Correct me if I'm wrong), hence the backup. Or perhaps it's a very elaborate security measure (If something gets messed up, just copy the files from the backup into the folder).

Hear hear! Anyways, I agree with Super61. Trying to use the search function is more frustrating than trying to fall asleep without a pillow.

Ah, well, the skin seems to not be absolutely necessary. Just give me the standard scheme, as long as I can fly!

"Over Flanders Fields Phase 2 Skin Pack Ver 1.0 has not been totally installed because of the following reason: campaigns\CampaignData\Skins\off_albDII_J19_t_Jasta 19 1916.dds: This file contains invalid data. (error 21FC) You will have to run this utility again to conpletely install Over Flanders Fields Phase 2 Skin Pack Ver 1.0." Anyone have any idea what the devil this means?

Ehh, anyone else having trouble installing the Skins pack? I get like 30 seconds into it and it gets an error. I just want to make sure it's a problem with the installer itself before I spend 40 minutes redownloading.

Aye, TrackIR really changes the way ya fly. I find that if I play without it, my head automatically moves to track a target, though of course I can't as I'm not wearing it. The only downside is that I spend about 15 minutes getting everything just so (I'm the kind of person who will keep adjusting something until it feels/looks right ). Makes the game much more fun, and realistic. Now, if I could just get the flying part down...

If I remember correctly, you'll have to open the bomb bay first. I can't remember if it's automatically or manually done, though, so I could be wrong.

Oh my GOSH Marc. I think I'm having a heart attack thinking about all that Flanker goodness...

lol, that's funny, I have the exact opposite problem. It doesn't feel... I dunno, strong enough. It's almost like I have it set to lowest FFB settings, but they're at high. Oh well, it still feels alot more stable and reliable than the X52 stick.
