Honestly, I have no idea why I'm posting this...
JediMaster replied to serverandenforcer's topic in The Pub
I'm afraid that story is contradictory! If she's well-known, than by default you WOULD have heard of her. The fact that you've not means she's not THAT well-known after all, and that explains why she was keen on having you know who she is. There are 2 types of actors: those who want to be known more, and those who are too well-known for their comfort. She was obviously one of the former and was hoping that since you didn't know her face, you would know her name. When you didn't know that either, she wanted to be sure you knew what she did in the hopes that you would spread the story so she'd become better known. A lot of hiring in Hollywood is done on name recognition...if they can hire someone people recognize it can draw viewers, and if that person is on the rise it means they don't cost as much as they might be worth. -
WTF is with this all this "future" talk? It was a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away!!! You all get your citizenship revoked!!

TU-160
JediMaster replied to Veltro2k's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
I'd love to see a formation pic of that plus a Bone! -
Yeah, they don't bother with writing there after installation. Well, at least TIR does. I don't know a thing about Saitek!

New IL2 game
JediMaster replied to xclusiv8's topic in IL-2 Series / Pacific Fighters / Cliffs of Dover: General Discussion
The stock plane DMs in CFS3 were indeed stupid, with things like control cables given a 60% chance of being damaged! The Firepower addon and 1% 3rd party planes were far better and made the game quite playable, even if the DX7-class graphics made it dated looking from its release. -
The deal is the program files folder is read-only now, so a lot of stuff is done in your profile instead. So you may want to create a folder named "games" for something like EECH that wants to write back to the main folder. As for Il-2 and SF2, you don't need to worry about those, they work fine. No clue on FS9, haven't touched the series since FS4!

SWA Plane Suffers Metal Fatigue
JediMaster replied to DWCAce's topic in Military and General Aviation
There are a LOT of 737s out there. As for how many of the older ones, I'd say quite a few still! -
New IL2 game
JediMaster replied to xclusiv8's topic in IL-2 Series / Pacific Fighters / Cliffs of Dover: General Discussion
I don't know, CFS3 was IMO relatively polished. It ran slow on anything but top-end systems, and it was missing some things we'd have like to have, but it was complete. It also had the largest map of any WWII sim released since then. All the Il-2 maps are far smaller, and well there are no other WWII sims! Only EAW had larger IIRC. -
Well, that's the trick. Lower the settings on most any game and you can get it to run well. Your screen is relatively low res (13x7) so that should help minimize the stress on the system vs a higher-res screen.
-
That should handle everything great with the exception of A-10C. I hear it's a real bear, so you may not be able to crank those graphics up like you will in the other sims.

RIP Charlie Sheen (or is it good riddance?)
JediMaster replied to serverandenforcer's topic in The Pub
Charlie Sheen can't kill Charlie Sheen because he has insufficient coordination to actually hit him. -
Apparently they've now found some bodies.

So, Boeing then.

Oh right, I forgot about the ice coming off and damaging things.

Bring the tower some coffee or Monster Energy drinks
JediMaster replied to serverandenforcer's topic in Military and General Aviation
Maybe they should adequately staff them so that someone else would've been there to keep him from falling asleep. -
Ah yes, I'm now reminded that for some reason people pick this day of the calendar to attempt these things. I'd gone a whole 3 hrs this morning without being aware of it...sigh...

Blame Jon Bon Jovi.

And all of this will happen again.

Don't the canards have deicers built-in? What's the consequence if they ice up? I mean, they're only used at low-alt anyway, where icing usually isn't as big of a problem, right?

"Silent" is throwing the bullets by hand.

You're damn straight! Of course, depending on when you croak you could classify it as either a blaze or a fade...or if it fails to happen, a rage...

Syria - a bastion of maintenance excellence in the Middle East! No, doesn't work.

I'll take on my back in bed with a woman on top of me for $1000 please, Alex.

Nothing has changed. Everything has changed.

Don't forget according to the media anyone who shoots someone with a non-automatic weapon from a distance of greater than arm's length is a sniper.
