Thanks Winder...brilliant!

Cool..thanks Siggi

Nutter!

Hi appraiserfl I'm not the best skinner on the forum by a long chalk..but will make you a skin if you like? pm me if interested

You're in Heaven AND Hell Rickity!

Hi Further to my question in a previous thread (which may have been overlooked in all the excitement) Has the sudden cut off during crashing / Dying etc been sorted?...if so, how can I get it?...No reference as far as I can see in Workshop Thanks

Thanks guys..some good pointers there to make a start on Much appreciated

Very early days of course, but someone had to start it!! Ok... Easy Ordering, very straightforward...409MB Download..nice fast servers!...Brilliant...had it all done and dusted in less than 20 minutes! New Pilot screens...very nice... First major plus (and for me as a hobbyist skinner...worth the $20 on its own..) fantastic to see the fact you can have your own skin, without those wingies having it too!...adds hugely to the feeling of individuality!!...Now the enemy KNOW who the Widowmaker is!!! So...let's have a look at some of the new Aircraft.... DH5 in QC freeflight (hey, I wanna try these kites out without getting shot to sh*t first guys!)...have to be honest..it was never high on my list of favourites, but I sat in the Cockpit..and straight away, I saw what the designers at De Havilland were thinking!...The forward and side visibility is superb!...turned my head slightly on takeoff..and noticed the strut! yep, I know what youre thinking... "So..it's a Strut"...Yes, it is...but a beautifully skinned strut!...the veneer and texture and detail is amazing!...who the hell would spend so much time skinning a damn Wingstrut?..oh yeah, hang on...this is OBD yeah?..Ok..silly question!...bloody amazing! The Scenery detail has been reworked excellently...the trees have quite obviously been re-touched...and I am sure I shall spot more as I fly!...but this is like a donut!...you are hungry for more at the first bite...but you need to take a bit of time, and enjoy the sensation! So...back to the planes!...Time to give the N28 a look. The N28 is the opposite of the DH5 in terms of visability!...quite restrictive..though a more comfortable ride for the pilots of the time no doubt, with that windshield!...I will let the Yanks brief us about that one at length!...they have been very patient!! Now...last but not least of my early Foray!...Olham's favourite (whom he assures me, will cause a problem for me in my Camel..or indeed my Snipe (cheap plug there for Expansion pack 2 pleeaaassseee!)...The flying Razor! Hmmm...What can I say?...It may only have one wing...but that one wing...is as thick as the Kaiser himself!!....but it is FAST!...and the Yaw on it is frightening!!!.... I am sure it will be a very unpleasant opponent...and a lethal friend, if you fly for the German Air Service! I haven't noticed any change in the 'sudden death' animation however...and cannot see any reference to it in Workshop?..Has it been dropped I wonder?...Or am I missing something?...I also need to delve a bit deeper into the wind noise too..as it must be turned down in my setup. Like I say...still very early days, but I am thrilled by what I have seen so far, and I am sure others will have their own views / Observations..which I await with interest!...but a great addon, in the usual way, we have come to enjoy from the guys of BHaH and OBD Lot's to see and try...let's go fly! :drinks:

I GOT IT!!!!!...ahahahahahaha Love you guys...but you can all sod off!...whilst I install it and fire her up! Cya later!

And I am gonna need a bypass if I get any more damned excited!!!

Poor Dudley!...He musta been sitting hitting refresh for 36 hrs!!...awww bless him!

Only 5 more downloading minutes to go!!!!!.......God...I can't wait!

Old news Pol!...hahahahahahaha....Dudley beat you to it! :clapping: :clapping:

Nice one Dude!...Downloading now!...Day after my Birthday too...there IS a god! woohoo

Just a quick question for Siggi? Does monitor Refresh make any difference to games?...Just asking out of ignorance.. I know XP defaults at 60...but I have mine on 75mhz....just wondered if this affects anything gamewise? Thanks m8

Hi Guys, Moving forward in time slightly (From OFF BHaH) to have a re-look at the Thirdwire Sims (strike / WOV and WOI) which I have owned for some time, and wanted to get a bit of feedback from you knowledgeable sorts please? Ok..If you had just formatted your PC, and you were now reinstalling these Sims....which addons /Files would be in your 'must have' list? Yep, you've guessed it!..... I just wanted to know what your favourite addons were, so i can get them too! (of particular interest to me, is some decent scenery) Thanks all

It's $19.99 now!..It would mean they would give it to you...plus a dime!..hahahaha

I agree with Olham. In fact, even with New Game Engines..I see nothing on the Horizon re:-Flightsims that look in any way new or Different.(DX 11 or not) I have to admit, that the eye candy on games such as Grid and say COD4 are very good...fantastic in fact,,,but the bottom line is...In Aerial combat, there is a Cockpit...lots of Ground..lots of Sky...and thats about it! (all of which look absolutely spot on in BHaH) Eye candy is one thing, but it doesnt make a good game on it's own. Far Cry 2 looked nice...but the bottom line is...it was a total waste of money (imho of course)

Top Notch Siggi

The Royal Armouries Museum....Museum and history..as it should be told!

You buggers are determined to make me cry today arent you?....bloody marvelous song Lou!

CJ posted this link within Lou's post...and I hope he doesn't mind me giving it an airing in it's own thread? I had not heard it before, but it's a super song, especially for the BHaH forum at this time of year! Have a listen, and thank again CJ for posting it originally http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2505081926071475613#

Fantastic Christmas song CJ..Thanks m8!

Amen to that Lou
