Sounds like you got the install procedure overly complicated. Delete the game and all those folders first. Then just run the installer and let it install to the default location (..prog files\thirdwire\etc...) Run the game and set up your things like resolution and sounds and whatever. Exit and you'll find an SF2 directory was created for you by the game in your user's profile and THAT'S where the mods will go. The game itself SHOULD be in the program files directory, but all mods go under your profile.

I think it's the \ key? I just do it by reflex, I don't really think about it, so I'm not totally certain.

Generally I always did a lot of the detail painting first, where feasible, because it was easier that way. Then you do the large-scale painting after assembly.

Didn't the USN change its bomb construction so the bombs would burn but not explode? Hence USN mk5x bombs have 2 stripes on them instead of the 1 USAF types have?

I'm not running SF2 on Vista, just XP, just I can assure you TIR 4 works beautifully with it.

A bigger missile that isn't fired is a bigger waste of fuel/payload. You also can't carry as many. An F-15 can carry 8 AMRAAMs if it wants, but only 4 AIM-7s. No Hornet could carry more than 2 Sparrows IIRC. Internal stealthy carriage of a Sparrow could never happen. They could have conceivably replaced the AIM-54 with an uprated Sparrow, but the AMRAAM wasn't just meant to replace the Sparrow but to do more and go where the Sparrow couldn't--like on Harriers. Also, if bigger weapons are always superior, why do all American jets use 20mm cannon and not 30mm like the Russian jets? The Russians thought 100-150 rounds of 30mm was enough, while US jets always had 500+ rnds of 20mm.

Um...you're asking us?? *backs away slowly*

Resistance is no MMO, there aren't any MMOs for consoles. Generally MMO implies "$$ per month", although Guild Wars didn't charge.

I also think the definition of what terms are unacceptable has been made too broad. "That word has unpleasant connotations." Really? To who, you? Guess what? You can make any word sound offensive if you say it with enough venom and disdain, doesn't matter if it's been used historically or not. Homosexuals chose the term "gay" for themselves because they disliked other terms being used for them. Well, surprise surprise, the haters co-opted the term and now it's become slang for something that's not good! Of course, phrases like "gay and lesbian" are silly because lesbians are gay, so that's redundant. Likewise I think "African American" is a silly name for people whose heritage often goes back centuries in this country while many white people's ancestors may not have come over until the 20th century. So unless you want to call every white person a "European American", it's ridiculous. I also laughed when someone pointed out Charlize Theron, being from South Africa, is a true African-American! Take THAT PC police!

Can we finish the ones we're in before we start the next one? Oh, that's right, we can't. We never finish them, not since Vietnam in the 70s. We haven't left the mid east since we got there in 1990, but we were already doing stuff there before that (Beirut, Libya). Then there's that laughable "war on drugs" which seems to be fought with less zeal than I've seen the left and right wing commentators sling at each other on the 24 hr opinion networks. So what the hell, let's fight a war that you need scientific notation to count the fronts on!

I found it funny how people were upset at Crysis being an SF shooter because they wanted a realistic military shooter. Well, that's not what it is. That's like complaining War of the Worlds was ruined by all the aliens in it!

Right, that's why diesel subs are better for short-range missions, and frankly India needs them close. It doesn't need subs in the Atlantic or Pacific, it doesn't even need to send them to the furthest extents of the Indian Ocean. In short, this is more about the technological ability and prestige of a nuke sub versus the actual combat utility of one.

It must be the sequel to Stealth.

Pakistan's comments are funny, because traditionally nuke subs are LOUDER than diesel/electric subs. They have long range and can stay out a long time, meaning you can lose track of them for a long period, but while it's a big technical achievment they're not as stealthy as the ones moving on batteries (which cost far less).

My daughter is just past 10 months now, and I can say it only gets HARDER as time goes on! Her first 6 months were a breeze compared to now. She used to sleep all the time whenever you put her down, now she HATES it and wants to stay awake as long as she can, even if it means crawling around half-asleep to keep going. However, I can honestly say thank heaven for little girls!

There's only one engine. The old Russian Forger had separate engines, the JSF doesn't. It has a second lift fan, but it's powered via clutch/driveshaft to the main engine.

I thought he did? King Kong!

Well, I'll be DLing this for certain!

Well, I could have assured people of that! After all, Crysis came out when, Oct 2007? Nov? Then Warhead came out less than a year later, just about one year ago. A full-fledged sequel this year is beyond reasonable expectations. Next year sounds about right.

I wonder what that means for this side of the pond. If it's delayed significantly, I'm sure we'll be able to pick it up at Gogamer.

I was really hoping for a TRUE sequel to BF1942 that would basically be the same game with updated graphics, physics, and AI. I loved playing BF42 and BFV coop. I didn't play them vs people very often, I don't tend to enjoy that much.

I guess they're thinking "we're spending too much money making this game and we need to try and make a bigger profit margin." They should be thinking "why is it costing us so much to make these games?"

Will MP have join-in-progress? (OFP didn't but ArmA does) How is respawning handled? None, group-only, standard DM-style? Can you play the campaign in coop, or just missions? How are vehicles handled (in SP and MP)? How scalable is the realism, how far can it be set?

If you use dial-up, you can guarantee the ISP won't be available 24/7. Phone lines and dialing suck, so people in rural areas are screwed. Then you have upgrades, equipment failures, storms (especially the lightning storms we get here with dozens of strikes in the area every minute), none of which need to be within 10 miles from you to actually have an impact. Has anyone tried yanking their net connect after starting up the game to see if it only checks at startup, or does it ping away continually during the entire time it's running?

I wonder if that's because you were a "new member". Now you're "junior", does it show up?
