MK2

Hi guys, waiting on some planes and then it should be done, it is about 90% finshed. I just have had very little time lately, I should have more time in about 2 weeks.

Been busy at work and taking some time off of simming. Played a game called hunters this afternoon, while the game is off topic , the subject matter we played probably is not. We recreated April 24 1967 strike on Kep airfield (loosely, the painted aircraft are from the 161 Chargers Midway, which is more appropriate for 1972). The game is free to download and the miniatures have to be purchased and painted. The game turned out a US victory, one F-4B was lost to a MIG-17 and 2 MIG-17s as well as a MIG-21 were brought down. kep airfield was hit pretty hard. The 10 sided die denotes altitude in increments of 1000 feet (ceiling was 10, it was on the last 7 mile approach to the field) , the 20 sided die speed. MIG-17s on Intercept An overall look at the game table Two Sidewinders fired from an off camera F-4B tracking a MIG-21 (they impacted shortly after, the MIG-21 got off 2 Atolls but both missed the A-4) MIG-17 gets off a quick defelction shot (misses) Navy to the rescue A piece of terrain (an airfield, created by using screenshot fucntion in WOV, then printing and cutting out)

Very cool Is the insane edition uploaded?

The read me file contains the info . ;) You need the correct install path for it to work right. This is from the read me and it is the first step of the install. STEP 1 Please make sure your WOV game installation follows this path (or the medals will not work): C:\VPAF\WingsoverVietnam

Here is a great thread future ace. Good luck and check six! http://www.simhq.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cg...t=002583#000000

mad, how did you install them?

Can you provide more detail on exaxctly what aircraft you see and which ones you do not see? What video card driver? Is it the latest driver? Are there any other issues? Do other games have issues? Have you reinstalled the game? Is it patched up completely?

That use to happen to me when I had an ATI card, I believe upgrading the drivers fixed it , in my particular case. I also messed with the resolution in game matching my desktop nresolution as I thought it might be some sort of refresh issue, it would happen when I fired the guns as I was closing in for the kill.

Loengrin is DCG DGEN is made by Starshoy and it comes with the game. Do you have the latest 3.04 patch for it? There is a parameter for Flak. I would try posting in the www.simhq.com forums , Strahsoy hangs ouyt there and you will get an answer quickly. Go to the download section here of Il2, download my campaing add on for PF and study what files I used to add flyable careers, it is very easy. I added many for PF. Good luck!

You know, i actually never messed with that part of it, it is all stock. Could it have something to do with the starting date? Try having a starting date of 1970 or something and see what happnes, just a shot in the dark

USAFMTL is correct about official patches... just two. There are many planes and campaigns you can add on depending on what you like. For example there is stuff for the A-1H, including campaigns etc. Not sure if there is a must have per se, but there are special effects packs, weapons packs (if you add more planes), campaigns, a lot of stuff. I wil be releasing a VPAF campaing this weekend (almost like a different game) if you like MIGS. Also SF1 was the first game and WOV was the second game released. Most add on planes work in both. Just go to the download section and experiment with what catches your eye.

Column 5 is back up, I also updated the file description on the campaign to inlcude the link that USAFMTL provided above as well as the check six link.

CTRL + F12 make sure you pause first. If you have autopilot on , disengage AFTER you pause and it will go away as well, this should give you a clean screen

Got to the Ok form the "Jedi Master" of terrain , Deuces, to post these. Enjoy! They are for the upcoming India Pakistan 1965-71 campaign (still a ways off unfortunately).

well in that case then you might as well wait for the release of the new Falcon 4.0 due out in June. I think it is called lead Pursuit. http://www.lead-pursuit.com/index.htm

Strike Fighters or WOV, Reasons: Keeps track of your pilot's success (or lack of) Keeps track of your squadron mates So moddable you can play almost any war or battle from WW2 to the present. Will not take you weeks to understand the simulator, so it is not as real as Falcon 4.0 but it is not chopped liver either. Graphics blow the 2 you mention out of the water (just see below) and last but not least....it is a lot of fun.

Ziker, I wil be working on a MID-East 2.0, not sure about the current one. The new campaign will be completely revised, using the old one as a base, so if it does not work now, it will.

Baa Baa Blacksheep Volume one now available on DVD. It is the story of the famed WWII Marine Corp fighter squadron VFM-214 better know as the "Black Sheep" (although it is a fictional account). The series follows the exploits of this unit in the air and on the ground. The acting is quite good, as is the chemistry among the actors. The combat scenes combine new footage and some actual combat footage from the war. If you like the Corsair Vs. Zero battles this is a must see. I recommend it if you have interest in WW2 aerial combat and hopefully enough are sold so that they release Volume 2 to complete the series.

It was a 102MB file and it needed some massaging to set it up for download. Bugs was not a reason it came down. We have been testing it for 5 months while we waited for the patch. The bugs left are the one the game engine itself has. enjoy!
