Why not "Graf Zepplinn" ??? An aerial pioneer (and yes, I know the context for the unfinished KMS boat) -

I like it ... even a 'historic" foray into the Indian Ocean. Did they make a port call at Trincomalee ? -
My next terrain project
Wrench replied to Gepard's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
the hard part about using the lego style, is getting them to follow the "streets". especially when there's curved ones. For example, look at the massive building blocks on many maps (India/Pak, one of the Euro ones, other I can't remember). They're a nightmare to work with when trying to add 'targetable' items. Below is not the worst, but couldn't find the one with the nicely colored buildings -
Problems with SF2 (Windows 11 and black screen)
Wrench replied to Eagle114th's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
It'll do that by itself sometimes, too. I've had it happen on Winge7, but not on 10 as of yet. One of the oddities that TK gave us... (we should be thanking all the local deities that the thing even runs on 10 & 11!!!!) -

Man, been there, done that, got the T-shirt!!! -
Here's another one ... this wanker says he's a "student" (the IP resolves to an Asian country i"ll not name *), and can't afford a subscription. YET ... he's trying to get me to sell him the cockpit from the Su-35. What the fuck is the difference, if you buy a short term access, and trying to bribe an official? I guess that's how they do thing where he's from. Can't afford a sub, but has the game?? Can you say "Pirated" - I knew you could!! The answer is a big fat, definete NO I'm seriously thinking of putting him on moderated posting, pending a ban *= NOT China, elsewhere

Awesome stuff man!!! For a phone camera, they look fine to me!!!

And don't forget that mean pepper steak in the Joliet slammer ... curious if the U-505 will be in Chicago, as an Easter Egg (tm) -
SF2 Avionics Community Pack - - Beta release v0.4

Yeah, I should have mentioned there's several versions of the Scorpion out there ...my bad! -
I've had a few; even got one today. I tell them politely "NO". And I tell them where to find the "buy a subscription' button. Also remind them that behind the scenes file sharing is a forbidden act, punishable by IP banning. And don't think I won't do it...cause I damn sure will. This is something I KNEW would happen. All that can be done is for us Admins to get them names, warn them ONE TIME only, and them warn the General Membership (tm) about them and the consequenses of actions. Like DA said, there's a lot of whiny little turds on FB, that never contributed in any way, shape or form that act like spoiled brats that we've taken their free candy away. What will these fuckers do, if CA's doors close forever, and all those hundreds of gigs of mod are lost???

Hmmm...new fuel on the market! Do I trust this guy enough to buy it??? -
Stolen From Facebook: They Walk Among Us! I was at the checkout at Walmart, minding my own business, when the cashier rang up my total: $46.64. I handed her a crisp $50 bill. She looked me dead in the eye, gave me back $46.64, and continued scanning items like a professional. Me: "Uh… I think there’s a mistake." Her: huffing dramatically "Sir, I am educated. I know what I’m doing." She pushed the money back at me like I was trying to scam her. So, I did what any reasonable person would do—I gave it back. She, once again, pushed it right back at me with extra attitude. I shrugged, picked up my bags, and walked out with $46.64 in my pocket. They Walk Among Us… I walked into Starbucks with a "Buy-One-Get-One-Free" coupon for a Grande Latte. The barista studied it like it was the Declaration of Independence, then turned to a chalkboard that read "Buy One, Get One Free." Her eyes lit up. "Oh! So that means… they’re both free!" She happily handed me two free lattes. I didn't argue. I just walked out, sipping my victory. They Walk Among Us… One day, I was strolling along the beach with some friends when one of them gasped dramatically, pointed ahead, and yelled: "Look! A dead bird!" Another friend immediately looked up at the sky and asked, "Where?" I just… I had no words. They Walk Among Us… My brother was house hunting and asked the real estate agent which direction was north. He explained that he didn’t want the sun waking him up every morning. The agent furrowed her brow. "Wait… does the sun rise in the north?" My brother, thinking she was joking, laughed. She was not joking. He gently explained that the sun rises in the east… and, you know, has been doing that for quite a while now. She shook her head and said, "Oh, I don’t keep up with all that stuff." I... I had to walk away. They Walk Among Us… Back when I worked in a 24/7 call center, a guy called and asked: "What hours are you open?" Me: "Sir, we’re open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week." Him: "Okay, but is that Eastern or Pacific time?" I stared at my screen for a solid 10 seconds before replying: "Uh… Pacific." He thanked me and hung up, probably feeling proud of himself. They Walk Among Us… My sister has one of those emergency seat belt cutters in her car—designed to save her life if she ever gets trapped. She keeps it in the trunk. They Walk Among Us… My friends and I went to buy beer for a party. The store had a 10% discount on cases. Since we were professionals, we grabbed two cases. The cashier did some quick mental math. "Oh, two cases? That’s 10% + 10%… so you get 20% off!" We all nodded and quietly accepted our new financial advisor. They Walk Among Us… At the airport, I couldn’t find my luggage, so I went to the lost baggage counter. Me: "My bags never showed up." The lady smiled reassuringly. "Don’t worry, sir! I’m a trained professional. Now… has your plane landed yet?" I blinked. Me: "Nope, we’re still circling the airport. The pilot told us we’re third in line to land." Her: "Oh! Okay, well, come back after you land." …Sure thing, genius. They Walk Among Us… While working at a pizza place, I watched a man order a small pizza to-go. Cook: "Would you like that cut into four or six slices?" The man thought long and hard before replying: "Better make it four. I don’t think I’m hungry enough to eat six." Bless their hearts. They Walk Among Us…

I have to agree ... the community as a whole is getting smaller. It was not an easy decision to make; there was much discussion behind the scenes. But we have to live with it. Sorry to say. You all have done a lot of good things. Stick around, maybe things will get better. At the very least, forum discussions can continue!

Ok folks ... screenshots for WW2 mods lets keep it like the other Screenie Thread .. clean with images only. All other comments, jokes, and unwanted posts WILL be deleted --- to start off, trying to replicate a painting hanging on the wall my living room

Yes, Unfortunately, no matter how long you've been a member, ALL downloads are now by subscription only. We didn't want to go this way, but Erik has spent far too much of his own personal funds to keep this place alive. There were/are far too many people with multiple accounts, downloading unlimited files. So, sorry

Same here .. thoughts and prayers. Nothing else matters but your health. You take care of your self, brother!
