Agreed. The advantage of having a "complete install" is you don't need to worry about prerequisite requirements for the various mods that are available.

Remember to genuflect.

Something along the lines of NATO Fighters Mods?

Like riding a bike. ;)

That would have been cool to see. I don't think I've ever seen a foreign demo team IRL.

I have seen this, too. I don't recall if it happens with all planes. Like Wrench says, I usually end the mission at that point. I've never taken the time to really research it.

What I have seen is that bomb bay animation is triggered by CTRL O (OH). Cockpit animation is USUALLY set to SHIFT 0 (ZERO). That is more of a CombatAce modder standard than anything else. Hopefully any README files for a given aircraft will detail the animations and proper trigger keys.

I have had problems running SF1 under Win10. Just sayin'. You don't say what OS you are using. My issues are more around overall performance. I don't know anything about the DX modules you are referring to. I have had to use a tweaked version of DDRAW.DLL for some games under Win10. I don't remember any references to needed it for SF1. I could be wrong. I REALLY don't know anything about the DeusEx d3d9.dll. I have you tried removing these two DX tweaks just to see what happens?

Yes, I think the "menu" screens are displayed differently than the actual simulation world screens. I've seen the same thing. Glad you got it working!

I do. Not as much as some other sims on my rig but every once and a while I need to go bust me some balloons. :)

And this is why ThirdWire got out of the PC software business as I understand it. Too much piracy.
