I think we went through a similar series of questions when version 1 of the MF weaponpack was released. Maybe a reference to how to merge this new version with an already installed weaponspack would help. I think last time the help came after some people had already tried and porked their weps. Just wondering...

HrntFixr Another fantastic skin. Thanks! I like the darker colors. I'm thinking this would work well in my Germany install, also. This is probably a dumb question. Any ideas percolating now that the Raptor is out? :blush2: Again, Thanks you do incredible work.

The new carriers are incredible. Thank you!!! Unless I'm mistaken, you can only use them in campaigns or custom single missions. I'm hoping that someone would be willing to create a mission or two with the new carriers, that would allow users to take advantage of these new additions. It would be great to fly some CAPs, Strikes, etc. from the decks of these off the coast of Korea, Vietnam or any of the other maps. I know there are some modern campaigns in the works, that I hope would also let us fly from these beauties. Just wishing out loud......

Thanks, Typhoid, will do.

I lived in Tucson for 8 years. I almost passed out from shock the first time I drove by. The sight of so many a/c was startling, sad, and spooky.

Man, Hrntfixr, you are really on a roll. And putting out some great skins, as usual. Thanks! Does anuone know if there is a F-23 SEA camo, or Euro Camo available somewhere?

Thanks for the reference, Canadair. I have already d/l'd this one an may give it a shot. I'm actually looking for something a bit more simple. For example, I can use a YAP mission, the Ghost Squandron missions, or the Carrier Training Missions and instead of using the a/c for which the mission was designed(Scooter, Phantom, etc.) I can hop into the Kestrel, and go fly the mission. Not historically accurate, but fun and a change of pace. So, what I am envisioning is a couple of missions, A/A, A/G, with the new carriers and some targets, that would allow users to depart the carriers in the a/c of their choice, to go blow some stuff up. Hope I don't get in trouble for referring to my use of YAP...

If I could get a mission with the Gorshkov and the Garibaldi in either the Modern Korea Terrain or the Vietnam Terrain that would be great. I have Israel2, Libya, and the Bering Straits terrains installed. I fly carrier ops in the Push too Far campaign and the Vietnam 1984 campaigns primarily. I'm interested in flying single missions off of the new carriers with various aicraft. I really appreciate your willingnes to even consider putting something together.

Just wondering, can the Talon be launched from any of the carriers? I've tried but the undercarriage is being ripped off, I think.

I loaded the mission and exploded at mission start. I think that means no carrier. I have Bering St. Terrain loaded; a working CVN-75; working Talon, not sure what's up. Do I need to edit some ini to make sure the carrier is available in BS, I'm just guessing/fishing here?

Thanks, Typhoid, greatly appreciated. I'll give it a whirl as soon as I get home from work.

Way cool, will be extremely helpful. Thank you, very much.

Thanks for the replies. I'll check the carrier data, and maxspeed for gear. Typhoid, would you be willing to post your carrier mission? That would allow me to check/verify the carrier and gear data against a working model. Thanks for your consideration. Appreciate the help.

I am not sure, I do not think it is a stock carrier. I would have to check. I replaced an F-18 squad with a Talon squadron, in one of the more modern campaigns, either Push too Far or Vietnam 1984, I think.

Randolph Scott!!! Cue the choir, and my best "Blazing Saddles" imitation. Besides, you'd do it for Randolph Scott!!! (removes, hat and bows head) Wrench kevin stein

Amen!

Can Zur's Talon operate off of carriers? I've been trying but the cats and afterburner, struggle to get her airborne. And the undercarriage seems to be getting damaged even if I get her in the air. Thanks

Thanks, FastCargo, I appreciate the detailed instructions. I'll print them out, and give it a shot. TurtleHawk

Thanks! I tried an install that includes comrpnt's WOE airfield lights. And as stated in the read-me, it seems like the ini is over-written. I tried to do a merge of the ini(s), but guess Im not quite as good at editing as I thought. Can anyone provide a guide that would incorporate the new airfields with comrpnt's airfield lights, please? I would sure appreciate it. Thanks! TurtleHawk

Could be the water setting also. I think that the water effects require the setting to be on High. Of course, that might not have anything to do with the color. I flew a daytime mission, and the water still wasn't as bright as the screenshots. Definitely lighter, and more tropical, but not likr the screens.

I flew a single mission, and the water was not as bright as in the screenshots. The moon was even rising, and the water still did not get that bright. I'm using a GeForce 7600GT, btw.

I doubt this is true (fully armed), but whether true or not, it cracked me up. It's especially funny if you know the area. And with the recent fly-overs at football games at the "Q", it is just very timely: Two California Highway Patrol Officers were conducting speeding enforcement on I-15, North of the Marines Air Station Miramar. One of the officers was using a hand held radar device to check speeding vehicles approaching near the crest of a hill. The officers were suddenly surprised when the radar gun began reading 300 miles per hour. The officer attempted to reset the radar gun, but it would not reset and turned off. Just then a deafening roar over the treetops revealed that the radar had in fact locked onto a USMC F/A-18 Hornet which was engaged in a low-flying exercise near the location. Back at the CHP Headquarters the Patrol Captain fired off a complaint to the USMC Base Commander. Back came a reply in true USMC style: Thank you for the message, which allows us to complete the file on this incident. You may be interested to know that the tactical computer in the Hornet had detected the presence of, and subsequently locked onto your hostile radar equipment and automatically sent a jamming signal back to it. Furthermore, an air to ground missile aboard the fully armed aircraft had also automatically locked onto your equipment. Fortunately the Marine Pilot flying the Hornet recognized the situation for what it was, quickly responded to the missile system alert status and was able to override the automated defense system before the missile was launched and your hostile radar was destroyed. Thank you for your concerns. Semper Fi gang

Yeah, I suspected this was a ...insert favorite plane, country, road and least favorite law enforcement force...kind of story. It reminds me of one of my favorite tee-shirts showing F-14s being used to enforce speed limits, because everybody knows us bikers(BMW K1200S) travel at the speed of sound. It is funny tho'.

I hope you are just joking, and will keep working on your model. I think it looks incredible.

I can't contribute anything, but I think it's a great idea. Let me know if you need a tester. And, Happy New Year!!
