  1. or the old fashioned way of having a custom mission, and then manually editing the 'start position' of you aircraft over the specific target area (@ 500-1000m alt), and locating the offset -write it down!!- and then editing the targets ini. (past master of this I am!!! )
  2. I was pretty sure we had it in the download sections Russ: can you also upload that to the SF2 Utilites section?? TIA!!
  3. Discussion on actual game play should be confined to the Regular Forums (tm). These threads are about the Complete Set, not how to play it. BTW, AGM-84A, C & D have been part of the game since day 1. Extact your WeaponsData.ini and examine it

  4. Happy New Year!

    Wrench replied to Gepard's topic in The Pub

    Happy New Year from California!! edit: corrected spelling! should have read "from"
  5. Geary: none of my books show modex numbers on the tailfins, not even at the very top (post-56 when gray/white came in, yes) Good job otherwise. The mapping on those, including the A-1E is a bit on the "odd" side, isn't it!!?? LOL. I have the Osprey KAW Skyraider book, it you need it --- required screenshot
  6. Not to worry people, the fool has already been banned --- We now return you to the discussion, already in progress
  7. as it's exactly the same as the individually purchased units, there should be no issues with any mods
  8. Darude: are you out of your mind??? how stupid are you asking for copyrighted software on an open forum?? We hid your original post, asking for someone to pirate the installers to you; and we just thought that it was a one time brain fart. I guess we were wrong. Same behavior I see on the FB group, too. I'm handing this off. You're done here

    there's a hatch on the back (you lay on it in the deployed position), that becomes the "top". The gunner enters the turret when it's retracted into the aircraft, and pointed down. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball_turret#/media/File:Air_Ministry_Second_World_War_Official_Collection_CI1028.jpg the turret is unmanned during take off and landings; there's a ground clearence issue (see Amazing Stories "The Mission" https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0511124/ -- with Kevin Costner!)
  12. Thank you!!

  13. The Corona Virus Thread

    Wrench replied to Wrench's topic in The Pub

    Time to invest in MOPP gear, maybe???? --- in other breaking news, the Kilauea volcano has decieded to wake up again. Still waiting for the asteroid....( ala "Greenland")
  14. Aurebesh, i think

  15. The Corona Virus Thread

    Wrench replied to Wrench's topic in The Pub

    100% agree. It seems all levels of govt dropped the ball. From the top down. I'm actually starting to wonder if/when nation-wide martial law will be declared. shut down ALL unecessary inter-state and international travel (ie: airlines). Breaking up of illegal gatherings (lots of those with masses of unmasked and un-distanced morons going on here in SoCal --re: Kurt Cameron), placing said participants in a holding facility (of some kind -- an empty warehouse?-- lock them in and wait. It really saddens me, and I should have know better; 2.5 million years of primate evolution has led to ... us. Not enough sense to come in out the plague.
  16. note to self: make cockpit ini for Raz's available for use on Veltro's. I wanted to do that before, but just plane forgetted!
  17. the game generates the parked aircraft automatically, via the Options/GroundObjects/setting extracting each airfield ini and raising the ParkedChange= to 100 will (ok, should!) create more parked birds. It also causes overlap issues with the larger aircraft (c-130s and up, including any add-on transports & bombers) why it's not doing it in campaigns, which should be using the same in-game setting for objects is something I don't know the why of!
  18. so ... let me get this straight ... THIS aircraft is a copy of an illegal converson??? Making it a second party after the fact of the theft as well??? If this is true, it and any mods for it shouldn't be hosted here at CA. A blatent violation of our anti-piracy policy
  19. which mark? -2? -3? -4? remember, there's nothing we can do about the physical model. All we can do is ini edits. it's possible of 2 things: cat "throw" set too high (which REALLY shouldn't be fucked with for a myriad of reasons) landing gear structrual strength too low. don't forget, for KAW, there's the new one Veltro & I released a couple of months ago. May not catch the wire, but it takes a cat shot, and has no shadow issues
  20. and painting out the markings on the skin, and just using decals for the insignia isn't an option??? Unless there's more mesh problems causing decal bleeds??

  21. The Corona Virus Thread

    Wrench replied to Wrench's topic in The Pub

    Well, as some of you may have seen on the news, things in California, expecially SoCal, have gotten much worse. https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/los-angeles-mayor-countywide-emergency-042215116.html as of this morning (or was it Friday?) 11 SoCal counties are at 0% remaining ICU capacity. Will this fucking shit never end???
  22. See, I KNEW it had to be something simple!!! glad you got it working!!
  23. Jean:
  24. OT: Russ , how did you get the round hollow rivets???
  25. aahhhmm... just wish it went further west and north. and Canal is --- not as good as I'd like
