Are you guys just using the macro "normal" or "hard" instead of choosing "custom" and doing it all yourself? You can then put everything hard BUT the FM if you choose custom.

With the visibility the 25 has, a pit is easy. Just use any other plane's pit, but look through a paper towel tube at the screen. :yes:
-
Unfortunately, that's it.
Weapons load is determined by what plane and what your mission is. I think there's an .ini file somewhere that you can adjust to change that, but you can't make it change without adjusting the file outside the game each time.
For me, the worst is the A-10. The MP loadout has LGBs and no Mavericks which is just wrong.

iF-22 and Jane's F-15 were the last 2 jet sims I gave serious time to (with EAW being the last WWII sim and LB2 the last helo sim). Everything since has gotten a lot less play time.
iF-22 at least was playable as it was. iF/A-18E was not.

Falcon 4 has it, and so does its latest incarnation, F4:AF.
LOMAC right now does not have it, but the next add on is Black Shark, featuring the Ka-50 Hokum, and it will have a clickable cockpit.
For cockpits with MFDs it's helpful as that's what the real pilot does, push the buttons around the edge of the screen.
I think it's silly for things like flaps, lights, gear, etc though.

Best free A-10 ever! Rivals the one in LOMAC, and that was done by a big old team getting paid to do it.
-
Excellent! I've been eagerly awaiting this!
Ah, nevermind. I just saw the 2nd file now. That will teach me not to read carefully!! :blush2:

As long as there's a replacement for the English release, that's fine.
Oh, and AFAIK there isn't any planned US release yet. However, the UK version should be available here from places like gogamer.com and maybe others?
-
I hope they fix up the performance a bit. I can't believe my X800 XT is THAT slow!! :cray:

Anyone know what Sonalysts has planned for the future of DW? If there even is one?
I figure another patch is not in the works (because of how long since the last one), but what about an add-on or sequel? The new Virginia class is begging to be included, maybe add another Russian sub or some more surface ships on one or both sides?

I'm one of the minority that enjoyed CFS3 for what it was. I enjoy OFF as well for what it does. Neither do I recommend for MP, however. Unless you stick with totally stock installs all around (which isn't great, they are so much better with mods) it's pointless.
So, if you have a known group that flies together and that you could get all on the same page, great. Otherwise, I generally do my offline flying with CFS3 and my online (what I do of it) with Il-2. For WWI, I'm sort of out of luck though until more people get FE!

Those sketches look like something Da Vinci would've done if he'd lived longer and concentrated on heavier-than-air flight! :)
-
As an aside, that's how the early LGB's worked, too. Flying down a laser-defined "box" and bouncing off the sides of it! This meant the surfaces were often deflecting a lot and often, which shortened range. Later models now try and fly down the center, with less deflecting of control surfaces, greater range, and greater accuracy.
-
Sweet!
Of course, I need to get off my butt and actually GET FE first. ;) So little time lately...

I've not been able to come here as much as I used to (since the site was blocked at work after that hacking business flagged the site as "criminal hacking/phishing" :(), but I didn't think it an unusual requirement.
Well, ok, unusual in the form it took, perhaps, but not in the idea.
It was a legitimate non-intrusive way to increase forum participation. If you have to post 5, why not ask about that weird problem you had once? Why not tell someone else how you got around the problem they're having?
Of course, some people will resent ANYTHING being asked of them. You can never satisfy anyone, and you'll go nuts trying. :)

Hamachi is a little program that lets you simulate a LAN over the internet. Everyone joins a "network"/channel (which you can PW protect if you want), then go into your favorite game and choose LAN for MP games and all you'll see are the servers on that.

Perhaps it's just karma?

Too bad their transfer speed is so slow there...
Crap, as it goes it keeps slowing down??!? Sigh...90 mins to DL it.

Oops! Bold Games has exceeded their site's bandwidth!?!? Ouch!

Well, it's May 25, anyone have it? :)

CDV just dropped SF. They're a publisher, however, like Ubisoft, not a developer like ED.
As for LOMAC, I like the planes it models. Of course, there are 2 levels to it. There's the A-10/Su-27/F-15/MiG-29, and then there are the 2 Su-25s. Flying those are harder than F4.

OFP was an infantry sim. The vehicles were always more BF-quality as far as FMs/DMs/usage/cockpits. However, that didn't stop it from being the best of its type ever.
Joint Ops was the only game to approach this type of sim again, and it fell short in a number of areas, including SP play, enemy AI, map size, etc.
I can't WAIT for ArmA. Once I have that, "Game 2" will not be important for at least another 5 years. ;)

While GRAW isn't the GR2 we were waiting for, it's still a good tactical squad-based FPS. It does have its limits and its shortcomings, but what doesn't nowadays?
I am looking forward to ArmA as well, though!

I'm glad, as I've been unable to convince the guys I fly with to get SFP1 or WoV due to its limited MP, but I think I've got at least some convinced on WoE's merits.

He better! Other than the standard cut the CC companies take (a few %) there shouldn't be any other "hidden" hands in the pot. :)
