  1. Kevin, what ever happened to the Vietcong with the "R"-rated dialogue?
  2. Only models that had an ammo counter in real life, will have one in this series. If the aircraft that you're flying doesn't sport one in-game, chances are that type was not equipped with an ammo counter in real life. As to your second question, the answer a tentative "yes", tentative in that to achieve what you're asking, it will still require you to edit out those bits that do not belong to that particular title, and may require setting certain folders to "read only", to prevent the game engine from adding aircraft and objects that do not belong in that theater (which it seems to do on its own, with no prompting on the user's part!).
  3. Shana Tova to all CA members

    And a happy new year to you and yours, Nesher.
  4. Hey Jarhead1

    Dude, Your generosity has gone a long way towards restoring my faith in humanity.
  5. It does not matter what it's called, it will always be non-functional, unless the developer of the series codes that event in.
  6. There is no working sound event coded for "low altitude" in this series, and associating a WAV file to a non-functional event will result in..............................................................................................................................................................a nonfunctional sound!
  7. Really? I found it within a few minutes. It resides in ObjectData008 cat file.
  8. The new, Maxwell-derived GeForce cards are out (at least, the first few are now in the grubby hands of the press), and they have already been benchmarked: http://videocardz.com/52166/nvidia-geforce-gtx-980-gtx-970-gtx-980m-gtx-970m-3dmark-performance The amazing thing, isn't just the expected increase in performance (notice how the GTX 970 surpasses the GTX 780's score), but the fact that the 980 is able to perform 10-15% better, with a 40% lower TDP! What that means, in layman's terms, is that the 780 draws 250+ watts at max draw, while the 980 never exceeds 150 watts.
  9. The glove vanes were disabled on all F-14s sometime during the 1980s, as they proved somewhat problematic from a maintenance perspective. Also, from what I've been told by a RL Tomcat driver, the stated improvement in stability and Mach-speed G-load with the glove vanes operational really wasn't all it was cracked up to be when one was carrying a typical loadout.
  10. TK needs to port this to PC

    TK needs to port his new title "Star Vector" to PC, ASAP! We already have a Constitution-class starship and a Klingon D-7-class battle cruiser is on the way. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thirdwire.star_vector
  11. World War II Combat Flight Sim Options?

    Try this title http://combatace.com/topic/83411-wings-of-prey/ How can you go wrong for less than $10? I've gotten Wrench and Dave into it, and they think it's great.
  12. R.I.P, Jaws

    Richard Kiel, who played the role of "Jaws" in two Bond films, passed away this Wednesday at the age of 74. http://www.nbcnews.com/pop-culture/movies/richard-kiel-actor-who-played-james-bond-villain-jaws-dies-n200621
  13. Fvck!

  14. Ah, not really all of them. Many (if not most) of the third-party SF2 models are exported as Unicode lod files, making them completely unusable in all but one SF1-series title, and that would be the SFP1 Israel expansion pack.
  15. Post Pics of your Pets

    Lexx, The most common desktop resolution world-wide is 1680 x 1050, followed by 1920 x 1080 (1080 P).
  16. Post Pics of your Pets

    OK......

  18. SF2 aircraft carry IFF, but it's only useful for identifying radar targets in the F-15 and F-14. Perform a search on the subject and you should find a thread on it.
  19. That event (along with the bomb release, damaged engine, etc.), was never properly coded. We refer to such entries as "place holders".
  20. I've fired STARMs at designated targets, watched them seemingly go ballistic, only to see them go off on their own and target SAM or AAA radars 20 nm away.
  21. File Name: Yak38M Cockpit Hotfix File Submitter: Fubar512 File Submitted: 26 August 2014 File Category: Avionics Yak-38M Gunsight Hotfix by: Fubar512 This is a Hotfix that resolves the Yak-38M’s missing gun sight, and adjusts the aircraft’s gun aim angle to take advantage of the gun sight’s positioning. TO INSTALL: Extract the folder named "Objects", into your User Name/Saved Games/Thirdwire/SF2x folder, overwriting the original files and folders when prompted. They will replace the cockpit folder, the avionics, cockpit, and the Yak-38M_85 data ini files. CREDITS: Paladrian: Mira overlay Tomcat74: Setka Fubar512: A2A sight and ini work And thanks to... KJakker: For the idea and the inspiration. Click here to download this file
  22. Thanks to an idea by KJakker that got me off my ass, I've penned up a fix to the Yak-38M's inoperative gunsight. Air to air mode: Air to ground (caged) mode: I'll have the fix uploaded shortly...
  23. It depends on the television and the graphics card. In my case, I have to set my card to an overscan setting in order to fill the screen at 1080P.
