Make sure that landing gear values are the same on both sides. Someone once sent me a model that had that very same issue, and that was the problem.

Until you create a friendly SAM site on the map for them, nothing will happen.

I recommend that one also install Batman78's excellent hi-res F-104G cockpit textures, over the default TW versions. They go a long way toward's upgrading the ThirdWire F-104G first-gen 'pit to almost SF2 quality. The download link for it is: http://combatace.com/files/file/1707-f-104g-high-resolution-cockpit/

Because S-300s are set as static SAMs, the system will automatically place them and their corresponding SAM radars wherever there's a suitable red-side SAM site defined on the map. Hawks cannot be set as mobile SAMs, as they are data-linked to their radars. You need to have a SAM site declared for them in the terrain_targets.ini.

Also keep in mind that the cruise speed value will be applied by the game engine as an indicated air speed, rather than a true air speed value. This may pose a problem at higher altitudes. For example, 257 meters sec /500 knots indicated is well over Mach 1 at 20,000 feet...I doubt that any F-5 variant is capable of super-cruising in RL

Oddities....as in "Space Oddities"? Is Major Tom at the controls there, Russ?

Happy Birthday, JM!

Don't tell me that actually made it into the ODS release..... I did that to play a trick on Dave, reclassifying ZSU-234s as "transports". Dave called me up in the wee hours of the morning bitching about that.....

Yikes! Not a good way to start the 4th of July holiday.... http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2010/07/long_island_man_loses_arm_in_f.html Back in the day, this was a common Summer headline in the weeks preceding the release of a new Jaws flick: http://www.myfoxny.com/dpp/news/local_news/coast-guard-shark-warning-for-northeast-20100702-akd

Gee, that must be why the MiG-29's dogfight record is 0 for 12 so far. O victories, for the loss of 12 MiG-29s.

That's only because you believe that "Attack of the killer tomatoes" was the absolute zenith of the motion-picture industry.

Jeff, That works only if two animations (sharing one axis) are defined for the same node. IIRC, there may not be any open animation (IDs) left on that model.

FYI, Sundowner is working on new skins for the F-4S.

Your problem stems from the fact that you're attempting to push past the point of buffetting in a delta-winged aircraft. Deltas can perform perhaps 2-3 hard turns at speed, before induced drag slows them way down. You need to unload and build speed again, and learn how to use BnZ (Boom and Zoom), as opposed to TnB (Turn and Burn) tactics: http://www.simhq.com/_air/air_024a.html I have no problems killing both 17s and 21s with the Mirage IIIC, it is, in fact, my aircraft of choice when dealing with MiG-17s.

NEVER MORE! Oooops....sorry, your avatar made me do it
