  1. It resides within the flightdata.cat.
  2. TV show pop quiz

    LOL.......that was waaaaaaay too easy for you
  3. TV show pop quiz

    Another view of the same structure....
  4. TV show pop quiz

    Gawd.....not even close.....
  5. Because it requires an entry for it to be to be added to the soundlist.ini file. The "customized" soundlist.ini, then needs to reside within the flight folder.
  6. What have you done now, Stary?

  7. Star Trek TNV

    Anyone into Star Trek TNV? They started out rather amateurish 5 or so years ago, and are now surprisingly quite good.
  8. Not really, mine is a merged install patched to the December 09 level.
  9. I assume this is on Vista or Win 7? If I'm not mistaken, Starforce has a patch that specifically addresses that issue, on either of those operating systems.
  10. Going by what I've heard, the Tomcat sim may be based on entirely new engine...
  11. First off, TW is a company of one. In all likelihood, TK makes a meager profit (if any) on the SF2 series, and stays in business by taking on outside work. So one can understandably see why it would be difficult for him to justify gutting the game engine, just to fix what amounts to no more than an inconsequential issue.
  12. Well, you can contact TK at ThirdWire, and share your insights regarding this issue with him. It's only been broken for four years or so

  15. FYI, Dave's more of a "Dark Helmet", as opposed to a Darth Vader....
  16. The answer to all those question, is simple: no. Only the developer can change that behavior.
  17. Throttle setting is really meaningless, other than idle or outboard into AB (which isn't modeled both ingame, and in hardware). My advice, watch the tachometer....most aircraft of the era cruise best between 80 and 90% RPMs at altitude. Also, every model that I'm aware of has either a fuel flow guage or a totalizer.
  18. Hey, DWCace....

    Happy Birthday!
  19. Gregory, Set the torp's .lod file as the booster node, with a short duration and no attached effect, that way, the "booster" will appear to fall into the water after it burns out. Then set the torp up with an "invisble" sustainer .lod, and whatever wake effect works best. Adjust the position of the wake effect so that it is below and behind the "invisible" sustainer.lod, so as to appear to be on the water's surface. Trust me, I did this years ago, and it worked quite well.
  20. Since I'm experiencing the very same issue that Showtime is, despite the fact that I'm running a GeForce 250 GTS, and can verify that the issue did not exist prior to the Dec09 patch, I strongly doubt his having an ATI card has anything to do with it.
  21. That's not what I asked. Is he running the December 2009 patch? I think not.
  22. As I said, it has to do with how the series now handles alpha layers. It has nothing to do with who's name is on whatever silicone is currently handling your system's graphics.
  23. Then, that's why they do not show up. You must expand the date limits in the options.ini file, and make sure that both aircraft have service dates extending beyond the AIM-9X's introduction date. All of this is spelled out in the Knowledge base, BTW
  24. There's nothing that can be done about that, short of (as you've discovered) going back to the default tiles. It has something to do with how the series handles alpha layers, since the last updates.
