Couple of questions On the loadout screen, weapons appear on the left side but do not appear in any selection boxes - anyone know why? Ex. The FAB9000 appears on the left but is not selectable for loading, and it only shows for the TU-22 and no other aircraft. Does the weaponsdata.ini have to be in a sequence (except sequential number)? How do i make weapons (on the left side of screen) appear as selectable in the selection boxes (on the right)? Sometimes i can see the LOD files in the SFObjects folder and sometimes not. Doing a search does not show them either. Where are they? In a cat file? Is anyone working on a automated way of changing a loadout file? Or a step-by-step procedure? The one in the knowledge base leaves me confused. thanks, savagkc

Viper, if you are using Notepad to add the cruise missles, Notepad has a limit of 64 k file size. This could be the problem. Get "Notespad", (do a google search). Its free and has a much greater range for files it can use. Plus it has a lot more goodies and stuff. But it does the job quite well. savagkc

Navychief ( i assume thats your rank for real), I agree with you except, he should not be allowed to live, him nor any other dictator that has done the same to their own people as he has. Unfortunately, it seems like the politicans always take care of each other even from different countries - Diplomatic Immunity its called, Frankly, i think thats a bunch of crap. If you messup, you payup, no matter who you are! Thats the best policy. Problem is, it the military that has to pay (the last person in the world who wants a war because he/she is in it). Sorry to say, it has gotten to the point that only certain laws apply to certain people based on their "status". Sorry, MadJeff, I'm done. savagkc Ret NCO

If (a big if) he has any sense left at all, he's wondering where he will get some clean shorts to wear . Specially when the shells start hitting his palace. We should have finished it the first time! savagkc

If they made one for left-handed people, i would consider buying one but until then, my saitek gold is it. savagkc

Thanks, Guys, I'll try those. savagkc

When i take off,i circle the field until the entire flight is airborne, As each plane takes off i tell it to form up (tried different formations). I can never see my flight members! Once in a while, over the target area i can see one if i tell him to attach my target. If i go to an external view and rotate around my plane, i still dont see them. How to get the flight in formation and how to view them (in formation)? thanks, savagkc

I have the patch installed. Strange, it only happens on certain missions and i havent been able to find anything different on the failing missions than on other missions. oh, well. I'll just delete those missions that hang. thanks, savagkc

A lot of the missions (downloaded) seems to hang my system . What happens is: i will press "ALT N", and a flyby occurs but at the end of the flyby everything freezes. Question: Is there a command that needs to be added to a mission file (or somewhere) that will allow the ALT-N to work? thanks, savagkc

Two great planes - game has some new blood!!!! thank you for both of them, savagkc BTW didn't the f-86 carry rockets at some point in time???

For a one-man project!!!! Looking good, tho. Got to figure out why the slowdown on other OS's for sure (will give you a somewhat limited user base). WinME is my favorite (and only) OS for gaming. Good Show, savagkc

TK, don't know if a bug or a procedure not quite understood. When adding completely new weapons, should the weapons.ini be re-numbered or added to the bottom of the list? Does it make a difference? I guess the real question is "How to add new weapons"? savagkc

Sorry, forgot. An example: SU-15f has new weapons. I merged them into the existing weapondata.ini having to re-number them. None of the new weapons show for selection in the loadout screen. thanks, savagkc

good things take time! :) savagkc

Jeffl, PS: if you get the JV16, only run the registry cleaner (under tools menu item). Or drop a msg here in BioHaz to me and i'll walk you through it. savagkc

jeffl, try the 41.09 drivers. They work good for WinME (its what i have). Also, get a good registry cleaner (some good free ones on the web) like JV16 . Run it after you unstall SF. Then install DirectX9, then the nvidia drivers followed by the game. I had to do the above, now all works including whatever mods come out - the P-51D even. savagkc

great! hope we dont have to reinstall and then do both patches. Every two months is a pretty tight schedule but hey, lots of luck, tk. good news savagkc

thanks for the info, i know nothing about sound files except how to play them. Overseas huh, i assume he is defending our country or about too. savagkc

I know nothing about sound except for wav, midi, mp3. So, i tried to replace the P-51D engine sound with (what i think is a better one) a wav file from another game and i got nothing but i also replaced the guns sound and it worked . Can someone elaborate as to why some sounds work and some dont? The engine sound i wanted to use was a much larger file size but it was still a wav sound for a game...... lost, savagkc

like bagpipes if u happen to be scottish or a good marching band or anything except that awful screeching sound. I'm open......... :D :D :D :D

Wouldn't some good music be better? Like "Wipeout" or some war music. Each to his own!!!

thanks. I did a reinstall and that fixed it. Just hope the other mods dont mess it up again. thanks again, savagkc PS: I'll keep the info you posted on your sound stuff.

sorry, i messed up in previous msg. I also do not have any prop/engine sounds in the skyraider - at all. Volume turned all the way up (wife b*tching) still nothing. Have tried all channel settings and moving the soundlist.ini to different folders (sounds, objects, flight, airplanes) - no go. I have a soundblaster x-gamer 5.1 card and it works fine in all other games and music. looking for any suggestions, savagkc
