  1. What is a 'Turn And Burn'?

    Ehem.. If I may put my two cents in. It will still be relevant as in a dogfight there is a likelihood of one being the Turn and burn while the other is less maneuverable and hopefully faster, thus energy fighter. The F-15 vs Mig-29 will most certainly be a good example. F-15 vs say an Mig-25. F-15 is Turn and Burn. F-15 vs Mig-29, better use energy tactics. F-104 vs Mig-17.... Its an energy fighter. The Mig will be the T&B here. That is my two cents Maico
  2. Thanks MigBuster. My screenies pale in comparison, So I decided to stay in the hanger until another day.
  3. Read The F***ing Manual, Good Idea. Thanks so much and sorry about my rant. I am off to try. A case of beer is on order
  4. Wow, I was afraid of this. Does anyone fly with externals enabled? How do I get an external view from me to the enemy? I thinks this is the most basic thing. I am about to give up on this sim. I have spent the last couple of nights going to bed at the last minute frustrated by this problem. I just want to play instead I am working my ass off to fix this. I just started back on this sim and already need a break from it. Sorry, this is very frustrating
  5. Sorry,I am off topic. I will try to get a kill soon. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2690/4298016760_af4d201c39_b.jpg Ok, How do I post a pic instead of this dumb link. I use Flickr.
  6. Hey thanks, I should have known. Here is one of my Screenies http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4051/4298017086_bf7a8e50ab_b.jpg
  7. I am really gunning to play Wings over Israel 2. However, I cant find how to do an external view to the enemy. I had it a few days ago but now I have lost it. What is the default command (not default keystroke) for this command. I want to be able to hit a button and get a external view from my a/c to the enemy's. Is this a two part command? Thanks for your help. Good Day! Maico
  8. Ahhh, Uhmmmm, Eh? Are you saying in My Documents there should be a Screenshots folder? BTW, the game directory does not have a Screenshots folder. I added one but this did not work.
  9. Hey fella Pilots: Anyone figure out where is the final resting place of these? I tried putting a Screenshots folder in there but that did not work. Sorry, I am sure its been asked. I have been on these forums for days and cant find it. Now by boss wants me to do some work. He is not sympathetic that I am devoting all this time to a sim at the moment. So I told him, "This Sim is so important that I broke up with my girlfriend to play it" He knows I am lying. There is no way I could ever have a girlfriend Also, where is the basic FAQ's for this game. I keep running into "Advance script writing" I need more like the IDIOTS GUIDE with pretty colors Cheers Maico
  10. I have something strange going on. The game was running really good for a month or so. I had a great time with it. Sudenlly the game would not start at all so I did a complete reinstall. I then Patched up to 1.27 and my aircraft disapeared. My aircraft and friendly aircraft do not show up at all. I see the propeller and smoke, I even see the shadow if I start from the ground. I can even get an internal view of the pit. But from the outside, nothing. Anyone know what this is? Thanks Maico
  11. Max Graphics Settings

    File CUSTOM SETTINGS. You are looking at Resolution Settings. Once you open this you will see a bunch of tick marks for Aircraft Detail 1-5 Terrain Detail 1-5 Effects Detail 1-5 ect. Only the SuperGod PC will run everything at 5. I dont think this PC is invented yet. Find these setting and you will unlock a lot of performance in the game.
  12. Max Graphics Settings

    Fellas: This is a great comunity. Good stuff coming out of here. I see some great systems here. I am green with envy theseeker! Nice! My setup has an E8600 no OC and two 8800 Ultras. I have 2 Gigs of DDR3 by Corsair. Unfortunatly they are aircooled. My system seems a little dated compared to others here. Last night I did some tweaking with settings I found on this site. My game went from 25-35 fps to 45-57 fps. But I just wish my vga's ran under 50c. I wonder if I could get a water cooling kit for them? Uhmmmm....
  13. Mr. Lucky: Thanks a million. Had a lot of fun today at work. I am looking forward to a nice career tonight. Cheers bud Maico
  14. Its taken some time but slowly I figured out this sim. I cant get the hook out of my mouth! This is about as adictive as it gets. I love the scenery and weather. The aircraft are challenging and the fighing is furious. The kills are adding up now. I do have a tendency to auger in... a lot. However, I hope I get used to the flying model. I have logged a few hours now on the QC and I am ready for something different. I am ready to fly missions. The single missions are ok, but I want to see more of the sim. I tried last night to build a career but I got frustrated. Every time I try to begin a (german) career It only allows me to begin with that horrible little Halberstadt III. Can I choose a different time/aircraft? Thanks for reading. I apreciate any help. Maico
  15. Joystick Recommendations

    Pedals add a new dimension to flying. Some aircraft have a LOT of rudder. The Dr 1 is one of them. With the pedals I am able to meke ridiculous yaw movements to bear my guns on the enemy. Also I can make minor corrections when chasing a guy. Never to mention, it is the way an aircraft was meant to be handled.
