Hauksbee, any intention of using Rabu's amazing images on your t-shirts (with Rabu's blessing of course) ? A rather subtle advertising method don't you think ? I'd buy 'em. http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?s=&am...st&p=280492

Good work Barnstorm and Typhoon. Please keep us posted if anything comes of it.

Take your time boys ! I'm enjoying the ride. If it never ends that will be too soon :dirol:

Hi Jammer Excellent video Here's how you embed a youtube vid .... Copy the alpha/numeric sequence after the = sign onto your post. In your vid it's 9Z07a3rQqCE. Then surround it with [youtub][/youtub] .... but spell "tube" correctly and voila .... easy peasy.

Is it possible to indicate which DM version is installed in Workshop ? Not a big deal ..... it's just sometimes I .... erm .... where was I going with this again ?

Yikes ! I'm staying right out of this one ! If you've seen Rabu in action against the likes of fishingnut and buddywoof you know there can only be one winner. He has a tenacity in equal proportion to his artistics talents. BTW Rab .... I still have your art posters from the P2 days on my wall. And I still love 'em !

Another fine job Jammer Shows up the new tracer effect very well.

That's very cool Rabu. It would be nice if WM's ground crew could be transported to P3 April/May 2009 :yes:

I agree. The FPS eating clouds are a myth as far as my experiences are concerned. I've had my cloud slider on 5 for some time and not noticed any change in FPS. The clouds are a spectacular feature of P3.

LOL very good Canvas Wings . I know that song about the Liverpool tart ! It's a beauty You forgot to mention that one's wingies also always seem to go on leave (to Liverpool no doubt) when there's a big push on. Funny that !

I'm sorry to hear that PD. It's obviously very disappointing for you. My point was that (along with MP guys) many potential SP customers would be turned off purchasing P3 by the mere mention of CFS3 such is its bad rep amongst the flight sim world. It's just such a shame. A champion effort strangled by a perception.

As some have surmised, the CFS3 stigma is indeed an unfortunate one. Hard to combat that perception. In fact it's probably impossible. The only option is to port P3 onto a stand alone engine and rid itself of the link to CFS3. But this relies on very good sales so I doubt it will happen. And even if it did some would continue to say "isn't this an old cfs3 game" and continue to diss it. Perceptions die very hard. It's a sad state of affairs and I feel for the OFF devs. Love affairs are never easy. Anyway what I've got now in my hard drive is simply brilliant and if it were all to stop right here right now I'd still be completely content and forever in debt to the OFF devs.

You're a champion Rob ! I will send PM shortly.

That's the one I want. The flyable version. Actually I still have the files from last year (so thanks for the prompt as to what they were called) .... but I think another file is needed because the cockpit dials are greyed out. I think I used some dds files from a BF110 in CFS3 ? CAPT WINTERS was involved with this Gotha so maybe he could help out if he's still around. Haven't seen him pop in here much though.

LOL thanks mate. Are you trying to tempt me to into the delights of online OFFing you sly old thing ? I keep saying "one day" and "one day" I'll surprise all of you ..... perhaps

YAY Parasol :rapage: .... :whistling:

That's a yes from me

The boys take a trip to London on their day off from the rigours of the RFC and chill in their Pups unaware a Zeppelin is cruising over the English skies intent on bombing Tower Bridge.

Thanks guys. I'm pleased you all enjoyed it. Here's where you can get the Zep. http://www.sim-outhouse.com/?lloc=download...ry=GER#download

Yes it looks like it's changed since P2 SD. I tried that last week when fiddling around and got the hang too. Which is why I put the missions into "training" for easy access. The trackir thing is a little weird ? It worked fine in all menu's except when attempting to play missions (which I had in the "whatif" folder at the time) from the multiplayer tab .... so no big deal for me as I have them in "training" now and trackir works fine there.

LOL Homeboy ! No not at all. There's no problem . Carry on with your good work !

Well said BirdDog. To clarify, I refer to fsautostart only (alacrity wasn't around at the time and may very well be "improved"). But please chaps just proceed with caution with any of these so called miracle applications. And if you do have a relatively fast mid/high range rig stay away from them cause they are not needed. If it ain't broke you don't fix it do you. In my experience with fsautostart it went swimmingly at first but soon degenerated into a *&%#'d up registry. Of course I was a noob then and it was probably mainly my fault ..... so just proceed with caution is all I'm saying ... and don't get sucked into using something you don't really need.

I don't do the 17 hour thing anymore DID or otherwise. Loved it in P2 and became quite obsessive about it crying hopelessly and without shame (and, I must admit, with some wicked enjoyment) into the heaving bosom of Nurse Gladys every time a pilot failed to reach his target (ring any bells with any of you chaps ?) but now spend my time enjoying the beauty of P3 (not just visually) and not caring whether a pilot lives or dies. Besides, I always take a Leica motion picture camera with me these days always on the ready to "roll camera" for that elusive breath takingly amazing clip that you know is just around the corner. So I try to incorporate the beauty that is OFF from various clips into a video format for posterity and the greater good of society. I have no time for 17 hours ..... but then again .... it was/is a great challenge. And not silly at all. Perhaps I should reconsider ?

That's amazing Stump ! Not one spelling mistake Interesting stuff though. The Europeans were designing helicopters as early as 1907 I think. Pretty rough and unstable of course (always tethered) but heading in the right direction. If you make it sort out the stability issues please lol.

Thanks for the Gotha file SD. Interesting topic on where to actually put mission mods. Like Steve, I put mine in "training" and they then appear in the drop down in the "missions tab. If I put them in "whatif" I can only access them via the "multiplayer" tab (but trackir didn't work there for some odd reason so that was a no-no for me). I don't MP anyway.
