I think you just killed the rest of post with that. Saying "all sims are different from other sims, that's why they have different names", just does not define anything whatsoever to differentiate the games. I have played LOMAC myself, and even if it was fully moddable with missions/etc, like what SayWhat!? said, I am not looking to learn how to really fly the a/c, just to play a game and enjoy it. In the end of things, it's more about YOUR tastes as to which you prefer. I myself will problably never touch LOMAC ever again, while the TK series will stay on my HD until my computer fries and/or there is no way for me to get a hold of a copy, which at this time there are plenty of ways.

if you are referring to the text as in the display of speed, distance, height, etc. etc., one way to do it if you just want them off for screenshots is just to hit alt + h until it clears the screen, and then you can hit alt + h again to bring it back. It cycles through 3 different displays, normal, normal with frames per second, and cleared. You can edit an ini file somewhere to completely remove it (I think).. but I just prefer the alt + h method better. In case alt + h does not work check your options under customize to see what is listed as your hud display key.

Well what we ought to do, is someone or all of us can set up a list of "mods, add-on a/c, effects, sounds, etc etc."... for everyone to download and set up. That is if we can use 3rd party addons in MP. And everyone should make a clean install of whichever game we choose to use as our MP game (WoV or WoE is all I have).. And then everyone can just run MP off of that install of the game with mods.. while still keeping your original install intact.. (just remember to change the WOV.exe or WOE.exe to something different like WOE MP.exe or WOV MP.exe

Thank you USAFMTL,... now all of a sudden my a/c folder size just doubled from 40gb to 80gb... on a 250gb HD, luckily I have an external 250gb and 1TB to save me X-)

dont forget the Morgan and the Wyvern too for that matter. (2 other Ace Combat fictional craft)

see but i have done that, changed the data/loadout/selfname... all to (my example was F-15C Soviet.ini/F-15C Soviet_data.ini/ F-15C Loadout.ini/ etc etc.) However it still does not show up.. for some reason I am thinking it is just reading the duplicate as the exact same a/c EVEN THOUGH the folder's name is changed, the aircraft fullname is changed, the ini's are edited to represent Soviet country, etc. etc.. But still to no avail.

On that note, how would I take an already made A/C and make a duplicate copy for the opposing side?... Say the F-15C versus an F-15C (Soviet side)... I have tried this by just copying and pasting the same a/c folder and then ONLY adjusting the data labeling the country from USAF to SOVIET, and changing the weapons to SOVIET as well, even changing the aircraft name to say F-15C 'Soviet'... However when I go to actually fly her she never shows up on the list? Any idea how to make a duplicate copy of an a/c folder and get BOTH a/c to show up?

Thanks for posting these up Kei, and good work to those who made it X-)

I think he means unlimited ammo for gun AND missiles/bombs/etc. In which case I do not believe it is possible to have unlimited prim weapon/sec. only gun. (unless you create yourself a behemoth jet that can house 30+ missiles, of course it would be so slow they would be almost pointless)

I checked again, I only saw the F-14D, and that was Solo Wing Pixy that only flew the Eagle and Morgan, and James "Crow" (what was his last name?) flew the F-16C I remember because I got mad after half-way through the game and the only one I saw was the D, and I liked using it, especially in AC5.. Hopefully they come out with a new one soon.

is there a reason I shouldn't be? I am fully aware its not completed, that doesn't mean I have to deny myself the right to be excited. Good work Gux

well since the only skin provided is an Ace Combat skin (By the way, Cipher did NOT fly this aircraft, nor could he... because the only F-14 in Ace Combat Zero was the F-14D Super Tomcat, while the F-14B Bobcat (that was the name in Ace Combat 5... I think.. maybe Bombcat...) was in Ace Combat 5).. the skin should have been labeled Wardog... come on kei what happened man X-)

like you siad serverandenforcer, I think it would be interesting if we could somehow manipulate lightning into the weather system, at least as just something to watch in the background or as it crackles right by your window (maybe even make it possible that if it strikes your plane you go down....... ok MAYBE THATS A LITTLE TOO MUCH.... just thinking thats all).. maybe throw some snow possibly? Maybe manipulate smoke such as from Lexx Luthors Nuke pack and create yourself some sort of Tornado? (ok I do not know if fighter's actually flew in that kind of weather (snow,tornadoes, etc etc.). I am just saying it would be interesting, that is if it is possible, to add more weather effects along with ground effects, air effects, and others of the sort).. Just my 4 and a half cents.

taking 3.2 mins out of your work time it seems X-)

its about as good as a paper airplane without the FM, which from what Gux said seems to be the only thing missing (correct?), so the good news seems to be its just about done.. Now we just need an FM'er to finish her up, needless to say Gux you seem to have done a superb job just from the model and looks itself, I almost feel like i will be scared to test her out when she gets released.. kind of like the first time in the flanker... and then Marc had to show us the OTHER Sukhoi products to follow. In my opinion I could argue this would be the heaven of flight sims... in terms of add-on mods, etc. etc. TW series for the win!

I mean most aircraft with AB shows that exact same effect he is using in his photo, so that's why I was thrown off when he was saying TVC.. Of course I wouldn't mind an extra flanker.. Right now I am trying to figure out how to duplicate A/C folders because basically, I want to make all aircraft for both sides (it's a personal thing).. but everytime I make a copy of the a/c folder, rename it, rename the a/c name in the data files, the country attachment type, the country it serves, and then when I try to play, it doesn't show up. I don't know if the game assumes it to be the same plane or if it just rejects it all together... which is strange because it's all the same files except changes in country it serves and weapon attachment types... any suggestions?

Doesn't TVC mean the actual nozzle itself is slanted at a degree opposite the way in which you are moving(if you pull on the Joystick, the nozzle points down, if you push forward to dive it slants upward?).. What you label as the Nozzle looks more like the effects of the afterburner (the burn itself or w/e it's called).. I actually thought you meant the very tip of the engine itself would actually do the slanting, but I do not see it in these pictures, unless it is VERY VERY minimal. I mean I get those same slanted burn effects on every aircraft when i do a quick-climb or quick-dive. I mean look at the first picture, the burn shows itself coming out of the skin at the bottom of the nozzle, shouldn't the nozzle or w/e the tip is called be slanted down to match the burn effect? that's my point in these statements.

bah... the best I could do was 20.039... my razorhead mouse = no good.

Kind of like how Command and Conquer:Tiberian Sun/Firestorm had this online play called "World Domination Tour".. Where basically anyone who joined in was automatically thrown into an area of conflict to battle it out and whichever side one took over that area and progressed further into enemy territory. Not sure what happens when you win that country though, I think either you just move on to next territory or they had it set up where online players only fought in their specific country. Anyway a Co-op feature like that would be just crazy and exciting, but most definitely fun.

you take what you can get and go from there.. that's what you do X-)

Check the Migs section of Modern Aircraft, it should be right at the top.

is there like a % number we could get or a possible projected ETA of this bird?

negatory, the Warning feature is to only show what warning level you are at. If you are at 0%, then you are in the clear my good man. However, should it progress above that 0%, that means another person who uses these boards... i.e. moderators/admins/members/(i don't believe guests can do that) has reported you or something of like and therefore your warning level starts to increase.. and if I am correct at 100% you get banned from the forums correct? (like an auto-ban by the website forum itself?) Back to on topic.. Yea I seem to have an unusual fetish with canards.. so I will definitely be enjoying the Su-33 and Su-34. It would be interesting to see someone with spare time start slapping canards on the F-5, F-16, F-14 (might look a little bit weird)..,F-15 (well technically the F-15 S/MTD or ACTIVE had those but since I believe both were used for only testing purposes of the TVN so... anyway.. My point is.. it would be nice to see some basic aircraft fictionalized, in a sense WITH canards place somewhere on the craft. But then again this game promotes realism (still fictional definitely= ok with me)

There is a program called HyperLobby which allows MP of WOV/SF.. and the only way through WOE if I remember correctly is you have to talk to them through some sort of program Teamspeak/Ventrilo/etc etc... find out their IP and have them host a game, then try and direct-connect using the in-game MP interface.. (not for sure, just my guess from what I read somewhere). I have played WOV online a few times, but since 99% when I get on nobody else is on, I just play SP all the time playing around the aircraft and sometimes doing campaigns.

We are spoiled children at your mercy! My WoE folder alone already takes over 30GB of my HD alone!!! Lookin to make that closer to 100!!! (thank goodness for external HD's..) Good Job with the First Flanker, looks like her siblings are going to be just as beautiful. Ahhh, what is this realism you speak of anymore? I seem to have forgotten.
