Read the post above yours. BeachAv8r edited the images using an image editor (ie, photoshop) to achieve the night vision effect, as well as the designator image within the screenshot. Also, just in case you're curious, there is no way to pan around for targets, other than to find and designate them by toggling through them using the "E" key. And, the beauty of this series, is that even in easy mode, it still attempts to inject a modicum of realism into gameplay, by simulating real-world physics. What that means is that you still have to pay attention to your flight path and release point during a bomb run in order to successfully hit a target with laser-guided bomb.

23.5 is the earth's inclination angle in real life. Why would someone set it at an angle more akin to that of Uranus (or possibly, their anus), is beyond me.

With the exception of The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson on NBC, most late night programming on the big three networks (ABC, NBS, and CBS) was either repeats of syndicated TV series, or older movies. CBS had the Late Show, and the Late-Late Show, starting at 11:30 PM and 1:30 AM, respectively. During the mid-late 1960s, they used to show mostly science fiction movies on Friday and Saturday night shows. By the mid-1970s, the major networks started expanding their programming to include series that competed directly with The Tonight Show, as well as shows such as "In Concert" (Friday nights on ABC), "Fridays", and of course, SNL on NBC. If my memory serves me right, CBS was the last holdout, well into the early 1980s. The independents in the NYC-metro area were WNEW, WWOR, and WPIX. They basically signed off between 2-3 AM every evening, and resumed broadcasting at 6 AM. That also changed during the 1980s, when they went to a 24-hour broadcast day.

Just for grins, go into your flight folder, look for the environmentsystem.ini, open it up, and see if the first section matches this: [EnvironmentSystem] UpdateRate=60.0 InclinationAngle=23.5 Latitude=34.0

The latitude and longitude values in the offending terrain's .ini file are probably not correct. In fact, I'd say that they have been inadvertently reversed .

That sounds like a carrier that's missing a deck LOD statement in its data file.

That is correct, it is temperature that causes a variation in Mach, not pressure. I found it a bit hard to understand at first, until I saw this chart. I hope it helps you, as well:

Mach 1.0 is Mach 1.0, regardless of altitude. The airspeed indicator always reads indicated airspeed, which varies with altitude. Only certain aircraft types (the F-4 Phantom being one of them), had a ground-speed readout in addition to the airspeed indicator.

Well, of course you do. Fixed SAM sites require placement of both the launchers and their related acquisition/tracking radars. Just look at a stock terrain, and you'll see that TK placed the red-side batteries in fixed locations. I have fixed SAM batteries that rotate between Hawk and Patriot launchers depending on the year, and fixed Nike batteries. Unfortunately, the placement method that must be used for the Nike batteries (if one is seeking historical accuracy) unveils a bug that places the Nike SAM radars in "stealth" mode. You'll hear your wingmen call out a SAM launch, but you'll not know if it's tracking you, or one of the wingmen.

Blue-side SAMs are working quite well. I've just flown a test mission, and got myself clobbered by a German Hawk battery.

Not to change the subject, but my favorite verse of the Star Spangled Banner, is the seldom heard forth one (we were required to memorize and sing all four verses in elementary school during the 1960s and early 1970s). Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand Between their loved homes and the war's desolation. Blest with victory and peace, may the heaven-rescued land, Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation. Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just, And this be our motto: "In God is our trust." And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

It was shown on major networks in the 60s, and into the 1970s, on independent stations, as well. By 1971-72, all the major networks had gone to 24-hour programming, only the independents still signed off around 0300 or so.

Eric, I have had to resort to performing a system restore on at least three PCs in the last few months, including Wrench's system. While the system restore option can be disabled by some malware, I find that in most cases, it is not. And while some malware can "hide" within a restore point, I find that instances of that happening have grown quite rare in the last few years. At any rate, going in through safe mode usually works, as it prevents the vast majority of malware from loading files and/or drivers, that hinder one's attempt to remove them.

Judging by these images, I'd say the nose on the model is proportionately pretty much spot-on.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Worse case scenario, you'll have to run system restore, and restore your system back to date prior to this issue. This can be accomplished from safe mode, as well.

Looks good so far:

IIRC, one can have opaque glass (like a gold color) with canopy-like reflections, but not true mirror-like reflections in this series.

Boot into safe mode with networking, by restarting your machine, and tapping the F8 key while it is starting. Once the boot menu appears, select "Safe Mode with Networking", as the start option. Allow it to start. Once it's up, try running your apps. Either way, download and install the free version of Malwarebytes from http://www.malwarebytes.org/ , and let it update and run. Once it's finished, reboot your system, and see if the apps are now able to run in normal mode.

Try this one http://combatace.com/files/file/8921-mgunny-331killerbees-sf2-ordnance-shop/ It's a bit old, and many of the 3D models and textures have been since updated, but it should help get you started.

Be Because the series ends in 1982 or 1986, so the developer felt no need to add weapons that did not exist at the time (such as the AMRAAM). That's where the modding community steps in. Look in the downloads section for the appropriate weapons pack, download, and install it. But again (and I cannot stress this often enough), take the time to read through the SF2 knowledge base.

What's wrong with a frowning Dave Slavens?

You don't really know and or see what is going on here. It's exasperating to deal with people who have been members here for over a decade, that have been involved with the series for at least that long, that have never contributed anything in all that time (not even an offer of help and advice to fellow members, or even noobs). One would think that those "people" should have some idea as to how the series works by now, and how to research things. Instead, they come off as being lazy, expecting others to do even the most basic things for them. I mean, they ask questions that any 8-year old could find an answer to on Google or Bing. Try doing this job for a decade and dealing with such types for that long, and then tell me what you think.
