I can't answer you question, but I can say it good to see you back again!

yup, the original Navy design was for a fleet defender; the rest was just gravy

just another Zipper ...

but as most (if not all) people are running multi merged installs, so _78 is the actual last, both for the F-4D and F-4E (not including the Kurnass, with is 73, 75, 78, and the BLW F-4F with adds an _80) ALL stock

Draw distance had a huge discussion some years ago (I'd suggest doing a search in both the SF1 and SF2 forums). But none of that is usable anymore, and SF2 has things 'locked down' (iirc) to a certain distance. So, no I don't believe it can be changed anymore. Also, don't forget, we're acutally using a 1990 based engine, so don't expect DCS level graphics

The answer is NO. There are No animations, for player flyable aircraft set at the factory for use by the player. Oddly, OTH, if you make the B57/Canberras, Beagle, B-52 flyable, you can open and close the bombay. But, again, all animations MUST be added to you control ini, and always need to be cross checked via the aircraft data ini

this is the old, SF1 original version (not fully updated to SF2, but easily done). There's also a couple of fixes in the SF2 Terrains section that give in minor upgrades Use it as a base, if you want

It has a "mist" function!!!! LOL!!!

there's a total of 10 animation slots available. Not all aircraft use them; all STOCK birds do NOT have a lot of manualy (ie: player) controled animations without going into the data ini and adding them (they're already there, mostly, just not turned on). AI onlys usually don't, other than canopies. But as they AI -- not needed unless made Player Flyable (tm) Long story story short -- ain't worth messing with

Yeah, it's part of the "DestroyedShipEffect". Does the same anyplace there's water, and a boat sinks. Unfortunately, it's not burning, like one see in "Atlantic Fleet"

Indeed! Nice of you to drop by!!

Unfortunately, we've had to go to a subscription model. That means no more free downloads. You can purchase a subscription off the front page; look for the tab marked "Store"

All these years, one never knows what Ant has up his sleeve ...

should be in the most recent (well, several years old ....) Scorpion packages. If not, I'll go through my mod fiddlers and find the specific one (it station specific for ONLY the 89s) EDIT: in this pack

Why not just use the rockets I built for 89s? They have no drop, as they have a sustainer (cheat!!) and fly pretty straight with the stock gunsight. They act like bullets, and can actully hit a bomber sized target. Just my thoughts! (you're doing a hellava good job with these!! keep it up!)
