Voughts...

Not really new, I have noticed this several times now, the game has been doing this for awhile really.

Should it not be "VA-27"? That said, I would check in the Campaigndata file if the respective unit entries are called squadron=VA27 or unitname=VA27. The first entry refers to the squadronlist, while the later will make the unit name show in the campaign as it's stated in the campaigndata. That's just the obvious stuff, must not necessary be the explanation.

see Phantom Menace... That said, regarding my previous post, I took a peek into Osprey's AEU #24 and I got to say that it's actually not that exagerated as it looked at first. Besides, what made movies like Pearl Harbor a disgusting piece of crap was not the action sequences (exagerated as they may been) but rather the unbearable mix of overdosed PC and forced and convoluted romance. As long as Red Tails doesn't go that route it should be at least a good movie...

You know, every action movie that takes place during WWII is exagerated. Sure, the shotdown of the Me-262 looked a bit, well, silly, but the majority of the moviegoers know squat about air combat and what can be done and what not. I totally expect then to shoot down half of the German Luftwaffe during the course of the movie, but I hardly see that as an issue. Otherwise one couldn't see any action movie, because that's what it is in the end and not some history lesson.

I have a MBP 13" (late 2010) and I like it. I have to have admit that its HDD is a bit small for my tastes (especially after I installed Windows 7 via BootCamp), but that's something that can easily be fixed for a few bucks and a screwdriver Btw, the MBPros and MBAirs support now only Windows 7 and the MBPro 13" and the MBAirs have only an on-board Intel graphics chip. IMHO I would only consider an MBA if I had to travel a lot and can't carry that much with me. I would recommend the MBP 13" I purchased last year, but to be honest I wouldn't get the current model due to the graphic chip issue. Also, Apple would like you to know they are portables and not laptops.

To be honest I see this more of a warning shot to those who can't live with the fact that TK's games are "just" air combat sims. Yes, the game already allows for a lot more, but pretty much all of the stuff that had been mentioned in the thread on TW is redundant really. Sure, it might be nice to have, but in the end most of it would just be eye candy that you get to see for a few seconds or not at all during a mission. All I expect from TK is that the F-14 game features a nice turkey, some appropriate terrain (North Cape?, Mediterranean Sea?) and a variety of enemy aircraft to shoot at. As long as I get that I'll be happy and buy it gladly.

Pretty sharp DAT Corsair...

Seriously?

IIRC there are also restrictions regarding the length and diameter which weapons can be loaded to a specifc station...tweaking the loadout.ini might work, but to be sure the [aircraft]_data.ini would have to be checked as well.

There's a MiG in this picture...

Well, TK has hinted at that more DLC is coming, but I guess it's gonna be more along the lines of F-4K, F-8E(FN) etc. As nice as Photosader would be (not to mention that it would be good addition for SF2V) I guess it won't be happening since it would require more than just adding some rails and a redesigned pit.

I wonder when he will release some new F-16A models as DLC...

That kind of info should be put into the kb, just sayin'

TK has redone the squadronlist and it now contains all USN units that have flown the Tomcat, before the patch some units (i.e. the USNR units VF-201/202 and 301/302) weren't included.

Well, TK has already added all the remaining Tomcat units to the squadronlist, so he might as well get it ready for release soon.

Silly question...where would I find this file? never mind...

Always good to get new stuff, but has anyone else seen this?

Ah, the memories. Although I got to say that the series kinda went downhill after the Clans were introduced.

Happy B-Day, Dave.

While Steam does start to download games you just registered, you can still install them from the DVD if you have it. Steam KB link

There's a pic of a F-4G in Osprey's Combat Aircraft #26, where you can't see any squadron identifier on the Phantom, but it's still labeled as a VF-213 bird.

Didn't they try the same route with the F-35? Anyway, it should be interesting to see whether Boeing will able to construct their yet unbuilt and untested aircraft on time and on budget...

Ah....my favorite tailcode

VIII, XII, XIV?
