Wings over Idiots? You get to drop bombs on large groups of protesters against things like cruelty to amoebas.

Yeah, SF's lack of consistency as to who has trouble with it is another problem.
However, my first SF title was SC: Chaos Theory and I had no end of troubles with it. Once I finally got it working, I started getting other SF titles. FC and GTL are the other 2 I think. I only have 3 total since my X3: Reunion released a patch dumping SF. Anyway, those other 2 never gave me any trouble, but of course that could be because the things I did to get SC:CT working also resolved any potential issues with SF.

Latest version for vanilla LOMAC is 1.02.
For the FC addon it's 1.12a/b.

You don't really have to worry. MS Update will grab the latest version of DX. Or you can go to www.microsoft.com/directx and get it from there.
Anyway, you can't get DX10 for XP, it doesn't exist, so there's no danger of getting the wrong one. Vista uses DX9L I think, but you don't have it so no worries.

There are an astonishing number of these SW fan films. Some are good as long as they stick to fighting and such.
The acting isn't always up to snuff.

Seems a mighty shame to have a bird like that and then not be able to bomb things with it!

I'm confused. You can't fly the F-14 nor can you take off from a carrier in F4:AF. You fly F-16s only.

With F4:AF's release, things just got muddied up.
The first were the RPs, realism patches. All they did was attempt to correct the unrealistic aspects of the original game. This got rolled up with another mod (eFalcon?) to make the super patches.
Free Falcon and Open Falcon both attempted to upgrade the graphics I think. So much so that the most recent OF/FF mods look better than F4:AF, which was worked on more for stability, something the mods all are notorious for not having, especially in MP.
However, there's been so much merging and splitting and abandoning of mod work it's hard to keep track unless you're up to date on it. I think the Red Viper mod was the last big one.
I'm just sticking with F4:AF for ease of use and installation.

Yeah, it's unfortunate but every router does it differently.

I'd say the "Clancy" name has been as good overall as the "Jane's" name. Sure, there have been stinkers, but the ratio has been pretty good.
I'd rather see the Jane's sims come back, though.

Multipass?

The Sith just use the Dark Side.

Flankers are a joy to watch flying.

As time goes on, the higher tech the helmets are the uglier they get.

This is how the world ends...not with a bang, but with a...stiffy?

....That's like saying the Mirage IV was an "improved" Mirage III.
Yup, just as the F/A-18E/F is an "improved" F/A-18C/D.
-
Funny to put it that way, since the YF-17 was called the Cobra and it turned into the Hornet.
As for the rear-firing missiles, I thought it was planned for the Su-34, which was more like an F-15E and not that agile. It has that rear radar and it's supposed to allow a shot at an opponent more agile than you that's on your six. Won't help against a BVR shot of course.

The problem is the new Falcon board 360s changed the CPU to 65nm, but left the GPU 90nm. The dreaded RROD is caused by the GPU heating and warping the board so that the solder breaks and the connections fail. Old boards had not even a heatsink on it. The new ones I think finally have a heatsink, but I don't believe there's an internal fan blowing air on it. That's what it should have, like modern CPUs and GPUs for PCs have. MS cut corners stupidly on the cooling issue and they're paying for it now.
-
Of all the SF titles I've had, FC has been the least problematic.
You may have a different experience, of course.
-
You never played the original Ghost Recon?
-
There are some really ugly planes that never made it into service. I'm reading a pretty good book right now called Cold War Prototypes, has things like Convair's B-60 (an all-jet version of the B-36) and other really ugly ones. I'll do some research and see what else I can find.
-
I just don't see enough games on the PS3 yet for me to even consider it.
Of course, I would have a 360 already if it weren't for the hardware problems.

In Without Remorse, it's John Kelly nee Clark that is the guy who goes in and sees the POWs getting moved but is unable to inform them in time to halt the raid.

Yup, there was so much fodder being aired during the 1st Gulf War I just watched with the sound turned off.
