Also, try reducing the resolution that you run the game at.

That is great news. Hope it's just normal rotation!

Got this in the mail today:

ARGH! I'm not going to be able to sleep tonight. Thanks, Weasel. I cannot believe the gaul of some people. :D He's jinxed the whole thread. :shock:

Well, enough of this. I'm off to do some war-mongering. :roll: Sorry to hear that this issue didn't go away, Jeff. If you ever need any help let me know. Jim

FE - Fair winds and following seas. Take care. Rogue

Oops, that 40 bucks was at last weeks price. Be more like 50 bucks this week. :shock:

Should we tell them the secret, Deuces? I'm going to play with the other values and see if I can get a Florida sunset. :D

Just a small update. I put 400 or so miles on the Suburban this week. Gotta fill 'er up tomorrow. 32 gallons of unleaded. 40 bucks worth of fossil fuel. Ain't America great! :D

Here is my final version. Got the AmbientColor tweaked to my liking: [Day] SunHeight=0.250 SunBrightness=1.0 SunLightLevel=1.0 SunColor=0.545,0.550,0.528 AmbientColor=0.486,0.486,0.525 SkyColor=0.240,0.556,0.776 HorizonColor=0.733,0.847,0.972 FogColor=0.564,0.627,0.805

I think I've got it. Try this: [Day] SunHeight=0.250 SunBrightness=1.0 SunLightLevel=1.0 SunColor=0.545,0.550,0.528 AmbientColor=0.350,0.350,0.385 SkyColor=0.240,0.556,0.776 HorizonColor=0.733,0.847,0.972 FogColor=0.564,0.627,0.805 I'm not sure what you are using for the AmbientColor value, I didn't change mine yet. But it is pretty close. The top one is with the changes. I've yet to remember which order to add my attachments. Jim

The new one looks much, much better. Can you post the tweak? Or do we have to wait?

Lookin' good. Just what we need more USAF skins. No offense, but getting tired of all those Navy and Marine F-4 skins. Thanks, Tiwaz.

Oh, yeah. The bigger the coffee mug the better. Can't get too much caffeine on Monday morning. "Can you put two extra shots in the Latte for me miss". :shock:

Hardware router/firewall all the way. Getting ready to upgrade to a business class wireless router/firewall for more security and better control of port openings. My current routers configuration table only allow 12 ports to be opened. Gotta have a few more now.

If you have respiratory problems or do not take care of it properly, it can make you very sick, and yeah, it could kill you. It is mostly just an accumulation of fluid in your lungs, so you would drown. Yuck!

Once again, the reason that we who have served do what we do comes to light. Not only do we protect the rights of those that agree with us, we protect the rights of those that disagree with us. Tell me how many countries you can do that in and not get thrown in jail or worse. Bet you can count them with only your fingers. The middies did the right thing. Answer protest with protest. She can protest us and we can protest her. My personal experience says that most people like this never quite get it, and continue to act the way they do for the duration. But, of course, they are more than happy to let my sons die protecting what they takes for granted. Jim

Nuthin'. Still driving my Suburban 75 miles a day. Them little fuel efficient cars seem to scoot right outta my way when I put my bumper 4ft from their back window at 75mph.

Whoo-hoo. I'm in for a t-shirt, coffee cup...and of course the frosted beer mug. Do they do night shirts, I'll get an x-large for my wife to use as a...ok, I'm not going any further with that thought with you lot. :shock: Jim

MJ, how about BioHaz t-shirts. I think there is a site someplace on the web where you can design stuff and they handle the web traffic and funds, they take a cut, but I'll buy one. Lemme go see if I can find it. BRB. Found it: http://www.cafepress.com/cp/info/ One of the guys that flew for my old VA setup one of these to sell VA stuff. Jim

Oh, that sounded like a challenge to me, Todd. :shock:

Nukes for the 20-30 million.

The history lesson is accurate, but the problem with your "we will lose" theory is that no country has the nuclear throw weight of the U.S. If we have to deal with N. Korea, it will be with the blessing of China. There is no way that we will go in there without some reasurances that we won't have to kill 20 or 30 million Chinese also. Yeah, if we get into a nuclear pissing match with the Chinese we may lose some strategic bases in the Pacific and maybe some west coast cities (I'm near Portland, OR, which makes me higher on the target list than anything near NASA, and no I'm not moving) but say goodbye to all of the major population centers in China and N. Korea. The current administration will have no second thoughts about using nukes if they or chemical weapons are used against U.S. forces or citizens. If I was in Iraq right now, I'd be taking seriously the statements by Rummy that if they use any WMD's against our forces, the nukes will fly. As for N. Korea, they are too use to seeing the U.S. cave to the slightest political pressure or threat and think they can push us and we'll give them what they want. Unfortunately, there are a bunch of hawks in the White House right now, and I don't think that they can be bullied by a third world country. That's bad for them and bad for us. My theory, we won't first strike N.Korea. But they need to be very careful about how hard they push for consessions, as we will cut them off completely from the world as a whole. It's amazing how effective a naval blockage can be, and we'll do it with the UN's blessings. Not that, that counts for much now adays. The UN is toast as a world body. Yeah, they'll stay around but for the most part they will be ignored.

I ran into the problem with 16 stations also. ARGH! I've got an F-4E with 15 stations right now. It's a veritable battleship. I'm flying it right now with 8 AIM-7's and 6 AIM-9's. If you try to equal out the outboard hard points you have 17 stations and it won't display the last one. I cannot find any setting in the DATA file to change the number of stations. So it must be something in the program. I'm going to look at the other CAT files tonight and see if I can find anything. Jim

Ok, then my screwed up vote should be counted in that one instead of the bottom one. What was I thinking, ok maybe I wasn't really. :D
