  1. RIP Snook

    DoctorQuest replied to dsawan's topic in The Pub

    My sincere condolences.

  2. Falcon 4 Microprose

    DoctorQuest replied to Dogzero1's topic in The Pub

    I'm going to make sure my latest version of BMS is backed up somewhere. If they try to improve the sim in the spirit of the original Falcon, more power to them. If they go the TW route and go all arcadey on me I will probably pass.
  3. I have the same issue with Win10 and SF1. It must be a directx issue. I don't have a good answer for you but I share your pain. SF2 runs like a bat outta hell as does FE2.
  4. Maybe one of the weapon packs? https://combatace.com/files/category/340-weapon-packs/

  5. Real life problem

    DoctorQuest replied to GKABS's topic in The Pub

    My sincere condolences. Family comes first.

  6. Graphics problem, hard to describe

    DoctorQuest replied to ThePony314's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2

    See screenshot. What do you have the various graphics options set to? "Unlimited" is an option but it takes some really beefy hardware to run that way. Like Migbuster said, try setting everything to LOW and see what happens.

    DoctorQuest replied to ThePony314's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2

    Age of the laptop? Is it overheating? You mention resolution. Are you running any graphic options at UNLIMITED? It sounds a lot like a card issue. IMHO.

  8. Install/Run Jetfighter IV: Fortress America on modern PCs?

    DoctorQuest replied to TheJetfighter's topic in The Pub

    No special software just Windows Boot Manager. Here is an article that can get you started. https://www.techadvisor.com/article/728246/how-to-dual-boot-windows.html There are plenty more examples out there in internet land.

  9. Install/Run Jetfighter IV: Fortress America on modern PCs?

    DoctorQuest replied to TheJetfighter's topic in The Pub

    Interesting project. I don't remember the preferred graphics driver for this? D3D? Glide? You may need to google around for a graphics wrapper depending on what graphics settings can be selected. For games like this I have a multiboot rig so I can run Win XP and Win 7 native rather than under a VM. Not sure if you have that option. Sorry I can't be more help at the moment.

  10. Lancer

    DoctorQuest replied to Shootingstar2's topic in The Pub

    Be vewy, vewy careful............................... ;)
  11. If I came off as overly critical I sincerely apologize. I do sympathize with the challenges of a small business. Thanks.
  12. Ok. I get it. Not really an intuitive drop-down with only one entry :) Thanks much for the clarification!
  13. I am having the same issue on both Chrome and Firefox. Some links work, some don't.

  14. Win10 Upgrade -- what can I expect??

    DoctorQuest replied to Wrench's topic in The Pub

    As far as I know the reader is still free. Did you try to get an updated version from Adobe?

  15. Win10 Upgrade -- what can I expect??

    DoctorQuest replied to Wrench's topic in The Pub

    Did you try going here and clicking "Update Now"? https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

  16. Win10 Upgrade -- what can I expect??

    DoctorQuest replied to Wrench's topic in The Pub

    Lots of hits on Google for this which is never a good sign. Did you try running it as an admin?

  17. Win10 Upgrade -- what can I expect??

    DoctorQuest replied to Wrench's topic in The Pub

    I have had problems with "first gen" SF and FE. FE2 and SF2 work great. CFS3 runs great. No issues with any versions of Office that I have. Lots of very, very old Win95 games just will not run. Go figure. DOSBOX runs great.
  18. If it was easy they wouldn't pay us so much.

  19. General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper

    DoctorQuest commented on GKABS's file in Other

    It gives a good impression of what the operator would see from the ground station that controls the drone. It is not a cockpit in the normal sense of the word. A little hard to describe. Download the mod and try it for yourself!

  20. General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper

    DoctorQuest commented on GKABS's file in Other

    This is a hoot! A great mod with a well done "cockpit". Thanks!!
  21. The readme mentions mucking about with the SF2 INI that defines the controls. 2) Copy the TARGET.INI file to the Controls folder inside your Strike Fighters 2 MOD folder and 5) Start Strike Fighers 2, go to the Controller settings inside the Options, and select the TARGET.INI file instead of the Default.INI. Not sure if you did that. Just checking. Sorry I can't be more help.
  22. Is there a Thrustmaster forum you can query? I'm a CH Products guy so I don't have a lot of experience with TM. I googled that message and got a lot of hits. You might try that and work your way through those. If you go into Windows settings search for Joystick and bring up that dialog do the devices show up?

  23. A Bitter truth

    DoctorQuest replied to LilLucy's topic in The Pub

    What settings do you use?
  24. Concur. :)

  25. Your First Sim

    DoctorQuest replied to Fates's topic in The Pub

    Strike Eagle on the C64 was the first sim I really got into. I still play SEII under dosbox.
