Extract the file pilot.bmp from the objects.cat file Edit the image and save in your objects/aircraft folder

A shot of all so far.

I cant seem to get rid of the grey color around the neck, but heres a camo helmet

OK this is my first crack at it, so I know it needs work but here it is I think the top one is better.

It's the only one I saved. I made a few others, so I'll do em again and post em

Nevermind. I got it. My retarded ass was not puting the pilot.bmp in the aircraft folder, I was leaving it where it extracted to. Did a search here and found the info I needed!! Thanks

Damn the boy's good, outdone all my recruiting efforts in one (the first as XO) post

Vectored Thrust!!! great concept, although not intended for these planes in this game. This will go away after a few reflies with the plane. As mentioned it most often happens after loading a new skin

These maps need major help huh? I thought I was only being picky about it, but it's good to hear others feel the same. Both the single player and MP maps need grids mapped out better, it would make for much better planning and execution of missions

Very well said BirdDogg, hit it right on the head there. I agree wholeheartedly with you. <S>

Damn Chief, haven't laughed that much in a while

Hey MJ, Before you give it up check this out in your SF folder. NETCACHE. its a folder in the SF folder. In here you should see AIRCRAFTLIST.DAT this must be there!!! Read below OK here's my insight on the aircraftlist.dat. This is the file that the system checks when it's looking for differences. If you have installed this game and the list is not there, you have to reinstall again or copy the file there from someone else. I watched Cylix try all night last night. To join, to host, to join after the game starts, and nothing but black screen. When I tell him of the needed file and send to him...BAMMO now he can play, better than ever. It will sit in black screen looking for this file, so guess what happens if you dont have it??? BSOD...Black Screen Of Death If anyone needs this, my email, icq, homepage, and all the other good crap are at the bottom of the page. I will be glad to help

Good question MJ, from where I stand it seems assenine because in the end they prove to be just as childish as he was to start with!!

Too funny, what a joke!!! But I guess everything over there is! WHAT A WASTE OF DB SPACE

BTW the folder NetCache is added by the patch. It was never there before the patch, and I've noticed that it sometimes gets left empty after patching is done. This can be fixed PLEASE DO NOT DELETE THIS FOLDER!!!!!!!!!

Nice patches. Too bad the plane doesn't live up to the patch though!!! LOL

Damn the patch is here and I still don't see too many people playing in MP I do seem to have more problems in hyperlobby than GameSpy But none the less I'm ready for some action

And the winner of the $64,000 is NefariousKoel with a fine answer from the tech support category /applause I had the same prob and I had to tell the bios not to use the on board piece of s**t card. Once this was done I've had no probs Using Rogue's method is the better way to accomplish the task of insuring that this card won't be detected again though

dont use the game software!! I did and it wouldnt work!!! I just configured it through the options in the game for default controls Holds settings just fine, as a matter of fact I have 3 different setups all done in the options menu of the game that all work just fine now that I dont use the joysticks profile crap

HEHEHE A dead MiG is a good MiG Nice shots

yup F-4B and A-4 so far MP issues are still not all fixed though, in some cases a little worse All in all it's still a great game!!

I had the same problem. I uninstalled the game, using the custom option. I then chose to select all for each set of files.Then I removed the Strategy First folder from Program Files. I did a fresh install and then patched the sucker. After this was done I added the skins I wanted. Now I have been succesful in hosting and joining multiplayer games. Hope this helps you guys <S>
