F-22 Mod is in the downloads section, is the Harrier and the F-14. NF4+ has everything you need. I even made an alternate campaign so you can use the Harrier and the F-14 off an LHA and a carrier. Not sure about MP ever being added. I have never used TrackIR so it hasnt hindered me at all.

There is no muitlplayer. I have that Logictech as my back up sticks and it works great. The avionics are easier yes so you stay focused on the dog fight. The F-14 will work in SF2:Europe. You can use TrackIR. There are a ton of mods like NATO FIghters 4+ for SF2:E, its a one stop shop with tons of stuff in it. Its really the only mod you need for it.

What year are you flying in?

and many more!!!!!

Yeah he is slightly behind the power curve...oh who am I kidding, he is the dark ages. Doesn't seem to be a good trade off, sky effects vs AI, avionics, and flight model improvements.

Is the video card DX10 capable? That is the only way you will get those effects.

I was stationed at Lackland AFB, my wife came and got me ad said a plane had it the world trade center. I said that it was probably a sight seeing plane as they fly close to them all the time. I walked out to the living room just in time to see the second plane hit. Life hasn't been the same since. I'll never forget.

Make copies of that bad boy and put some in fire proof lock box. Also look it over and make sure they have all your career fields, medals, ribbons etc correctly on there. Congrats!!!!!!!!!

Happy New Year and peace to all!!!

My favorite picture of them.

I'm a very lucky man, all my kids are great. Its fun watching my 13 and 11 year old sons try to deal with the tag team twins. They like to go to work on them one at a time and harass them. It's funny. They are just curious on what their older brothers are doing. One thing that has impressed me about my twins are their math skills, they are totally tearing 1st grade math up and ask for harder problems. My sons hate math but are big into history like their old man. Both are interested in flight sims too. My oldest son is also into cars. My youngest son is extremely smart, he is in the 5th grade, and is bored to death it it. He wants more challenges he said. All are good kids. You know whats funny, I got a PM sometime ago by a former member here who said he weeps for my kids for having me as a father. I will let you guess who it was. I was floored that this yutz said that. My wife was like wow, this guy needs help. Just made me laugh. Here are my kids on the first day of school this year.

Nothing special

What he said!!!!

You are welcome sir. Have fun in the virtual skies.

Sarah and Haleigh my 6 year old twin girls decided they wanted to take their own shower tonight. (Usually Sheila helps them but she went to see George Strait, so I was left with shower duty.) They said they were big girls and would be good. They gave me the puppy dog eyes and I said ok. I started the water for them so they wouldnt burn themselves and gave them the soap and said ok, its all yours. I went out to the hallway to wait knowing I better have alot of towels ready. I listen to them and it was like a small military operation. They were saying things like "Ok now we have to scrub our feet but sit on our bumpers do we dont slip in the tub." 10 mins goes by I hear the water go off. I wait another 10 mins, they come out, the bathroom is dry, they put their towels away and had brushed each others hair. I was stunned. I looked at them and said "You guys did great!" Haleigh gets all serious and says "Dad, we arent a couple of douche bags like our brothers." I was laughing so hard I almost fell down the stairs. Kids are great.

I would like to get hands on a copy of that.

As far as working as good as it looks SE, it will. We have almost the entire Desert Storm mod team on it, we have eburger on it. We also have many news guys who have came with great skills. This is like the whose who of the modding community. Also a truly an international effort. World leaders could take use us as an example of international cooperation.

Yep, it became a challenge to try to crack them. Most did but you did have that 1% who didnt. The ones who didnt though were also the ones who did well in basic because "they got it" early enough through training. These we also the ones who did well in tech school. Some might call it being able to play the game, but I disagree, this 1% were the ones who knew what the actual goal of the training was and adapted. I should look for some of my pics of when I was a TI and post them.

Looks like they opened a new page at the A-10 DCS site. Great information there. A-10 DCS Page
