  1. display setting question

    Where are these Rabu settings? I would like to check them out, thanks.
  2. My antivirus doesn't like HitR

    Norton is supposedly quite good now and not a resource hog like it used to be. When I installed OFF this morning Avira detected a trojan in the 'OFFManager.exe' but I scanned it wiht Malwarebytes manually and was clean so just added it to Avira exceptions list. You have to be careful with these AV progs because if you allow them to auto delete or quarantine a suspected file and it is a system file then it can pooch your system. That happened to thousands of people just 2 weeks ago because Avast update was bad and detected virii in a ton of Windows system files and people had the default auto qauarantine set. I always set my AV to report only for that reason. If you ever get a file you are not sure about then go to the below url and have it scanned with multiple engines for free. http://virscan.org/
  3. Santa arrived early

    Thanks. Must be my lucky day so think I will buy a lottery ticket today. There is no little lady here so I can do as I please. :) That was just a quick mission and forgot to check the box to make me invincible so had to create a new pilot after this mission as I flew too low over the front line. Will start campaign next and select favorable season, also need to go into the config and disable the rain effects as I am not a fan of it. It's running smoothly though and am using 3 for scenery and terrain even though I have 5870 vid card and i5 750 OC to 3.8ghz. I like to ensure good fame rate as I can't enjoy flight sims with poor frame rate. Might turn on FSAA though as it should handle it fine.
  4. my first dumb question

    Greets! I've never flown instant action so can't say but for quick mission you can select aircraft in the drop down box. As for sound, there are sound mods so download one of those. You should post your question in the FE forum as this is the pub forum for discussing off topic stuff.
  5. Woot! It arrived this morning. My paranoia was unfounded so sorry for title thread to Avongate. I would edit it if I could.
  6. Bourne 4

    And Matt Damon was 2 years older.
  7. Why you don't flush a fruitcake...

    Don't ever flush on a plane while sitting on the toilet either. Some years back I read of some poor old woman having part of her intestine sucked out of her because the flush is so strong, seriously; I kid you not.
  8. I hope it performs better than Phase1 because I remember that was quite demanding on my current hardware at the time but I do have much better PC now so all should be fine and I will be shooting down the huns in no time.
  9. My antivirus doesn't like HitR

    Avira often finds false positives and is what you get with AV that uses aggressive scans. If you bring up Avira and got to expert settings you just exclude the files from the AV scanner and the guard. Also, you should right click the tray icon and uncheck 'AntiVir Guard enable' during gaming sessions so it isn't using any resources to monitor files while gaming.
  10. My location is on the map now. I'm in BC. I've played Phase1 of OFF so know what to expect when it does arrive.
  11. Is is possible to trim a Feee

    Yes, CH joysticks have trim wheels. Don't use CH now but back when I did it was a handy feature to have. http://www.chproducts.com/retail/index.html
  12. Thanks, but I am not quite on board yet. I might even have to be removed from the map if my copy never arrives.
  13. We had snow here recently but not enough for dog sleds. Olham, sent you PM with my location. Where's this map to be found though?
  14. I can't imagine........

    Balls of steel.
  15. BIS Redesigns ArmA II

    There is already a farm sim on the market so they are late to the table on that one. There is even a crane operator sim now. Maybe they could do a fish canning factory sim.
  16. OFP 2

    The AI is very dumb in OFP2. My squad members were unloading all their rounds into a disabled tank that still had a live enemy AI inside it. They all just stood there continually firing at the tank with rifle bullets. Don't the developers know that rifle rounds can't penetrate a tank?
  17. Place your Christmas greetings here!

    They want $5.00 these days for a fancy Xmas card!!! Oh yea, Happy Holidays all.
  18. The Past Decade

    Only 2 more years until the end!!!
  19. That's what I think happened too but Avongate thinks otherwise. I've had things shipped via USPS before and have always been able to see exactly where the package is on it's route but this shows nothing at all and is why I think they may have messed up.
  20. Great community. I received two offers to solve my lack of disk but will wait for mine to arrive. In the meantime I can play RoF and many other games I have barely touched yet. Just bought NHL10 for PS3 yesterday too so can start a new hockey career over Xmas. Avongate is looking into where my cdrom might be and said they will send another if I don't get it soon. I've received lots of stuff from the U.S. via newegg and other online stores and the longest it has ever taken is about one week and that is just using ground shipping and not first class mail. First class mail is airmail, correct?
  21. No, I can't do that because I am not physically just across the border, I meant I am just up in Canada and not Huambo, Angloa. ;) I will see what Avongate says next week but what that tracking info says to me is that it never shipped.
  22. How not to rescue a person - SAR4 version

    Cool, I have both SAR3 and 4 but neither is installed presently and your video has just motivated me to go install SAR4.
  23. Yet another great reason to loathe Wal-Mart...

    Take pleasure in knowing that the people that own Walmart live in a walled fortress because they know they have many enemies. Living in fear is no life at all, even if it does come with caviar on sterling silver plates.
  24. Happy Hanukkah

    I'l be eating my gruel xmas eve all alone with no OFF to play the next morning thanks to crap ordering company they went with. $9.46 to send one lousy cdrom with no manual and 14 days for delivery and still counting? Bah!
  25. Bourne 4

    Once you have seen the first Bourne there is no reason to see any of the others IMO. I honestly had a hard time telling the dif between the first and the third.
