7500? Yeah, I'd be concerned too. The readme for a game is often posted on release, and they usually list specific chipsets. Maybe you can check that.

LOL!

The important thing to remember about composing shots like that is the light source.

Look at the moon, figure out where the sun has to be. Now look at the shadows on the plane/contrails and figure out where the sun has to be. If it's not pretty close, you can tell it's a fake.

The F-117 is undeniable, but it's also very obvious and still a lot is "black" and inaccessible.

The F-4 is a good choice, although proving it "changed the face" will be harder because it's not so blatant.

The UH-1 certainly ranks up there, if anything higher than the F-4.

So, it's already been cracked, but we won't release it to people willing to pay?? I don't get it. What further damage could be caused??

I can see the "revamp for the Western release" logic, even if I don't agree with it (because of the afore-mentioned certainty it will be cracked), but why close the barn doors after the livestock left, got killed, was butchered, and is now on your table?

True. I guess it's one of those genres that doesn't have any real proper "spot."

But Cap'n, she don't have the power!!

Well, who says we aren't already and they're just classified?

As Judd Hirsch said in Independence Day, "You don't really think they're spending $700 on a hammer, do you?"

No, just razzing ya. I understand. My work blocked SimHQ about a year or so ago. It was traumatic. But then they reversed field for some reason. Musta been the CEO...lol

 

You're a surfer dude?

How does a convoy that has come under attack by guerillas assassinate said guerillas??

If TK had his own mod delivery a la Steam, that would be a different story. He does not, nor will he in the future (unless something big happens), so the point is moot.

That's because you're not scareless.

Oh dear.

 

I just googled hentai....

 

Not good.

I hope you weren't on a work computer!!!

Well, those planes were all designed to fly off carriers that had known capabilities, so that's not saying all that much. They also take off from shore runways which may have not only no headwind but crosswind. I would think the only difference is going to be usable payload/fuel load if you have a still/negative wind.

A plane that can't use a cat designed for a long takeoff roll like an SR-71, though, is just out of the question.

I got FC2 last night and I'm enjoying it. It plays amazingly fast at max detail on my 2nd-line PC.

My only question is why did you put this in the hardware forum C5??

That's why I love my Creative Zen.

Geez JM we miss you :yes:

 

Congrats Dave.

Not my fault, it's the DoD!! CA is small enough to slip "under the radar", but SimHQ is now blocked as a "games" site. Proxy server says no go.

Maybe if you guys got a new URL I could return.

As for accessing from home, I just don't have that much time to do it. What time I have for the PC is spent gaming on it rather than surfing.

Seeing them is only part of the equation. You have to be able to hit them, too. A search radar seeing you isn't the same as a targeting radar. If they know they're there, but not EXACTLY where, or the missiles can't track, then they're effectively still invisible.

"They are not perfect, but if someone gave me a ride in a time machine, there are a couple of stops I would make and one of those would have been to the Navy recruiter's office..."

 

RULE #1; NEVER, EVER, BELIEVE A WORD THAT EXITS A RECRUITERS MOUTH!,, EVER!

Reminds me of that scene in Pvt Benjamin when she first gets to boot camp.

"I'm sorry, I seem to be in the wrong Army. Where's the one with the nice rooms?"

I'll never reach the numbers here I have at SimHQ, but that's a GOOD thing.

I also only visit there like once a month now since I can't access them from work anymore. The weird part is for having spent so much time there you'd think I'd feel the absence more than I do.

Yeah, I like it. Sort of X Files: the next generation. John Noble is great as wacky Walter.

Of course, there was one way to do it. A carrier that could do 100kts.

What does the "-da" on the AV-8B signify? Only thing I can think of is "direct ascent", but that's because I'm in the launch business so that's where my mind goes.

Ooh! I've been waiting for someone to finally release a plane that looks like Saturn! It's been far too long...

I thought the patches for WOI, WOE, and WOV did just that this time around? I can't say for certain as I don't have them loaded on my only Vista PC yet (a laptop) but I thought I heard that?

That's not about DX10 or anything, just simply "working without workaround whilst whistling Wonderwoman wondrously."
