Try this. Set that statement to false, start the game, and, try panning around the cockpit, paying attention to things such as the relationship of the cockpit and its canopy frame to the nose and wings. Then, try it again with it enabled, and tell us what you've noticed with it on

The 57th interceptor squadron (The Black Knights of Keflavik) flew out of Iceland with a black-on-white checkerboard pattern during that time period, and their alternate base was Leuchars: http://www.verslo.is/baldur/57th_fis/57th.htm

Jeez, with that hat, and that thread title, I expected something more along the lines of this:

MOD REQUEST: New MiG-17 and 19 cockpits.
Fubar512 replied to liamp51's topic in Mods & Skinning Discussion
As mentioned before on this thread, the MiG-19 is a twin-engined aircraft. If you're going to ask someone to simply remove a frame (which means that he probably has to create a new node for the canopy glass as well), you may as well ask them to go all the way and create a new cockpit, while they're at it. You should check this old thread out: http://combatace.com/topic/27664-mig-19s-farmer-cockpit-in-progress/ Though the MiG-19's 'pit looks quite similar to the MiG-15/17 cockpit, the instrument and switch panel layout is somewhat different, as are the positions of the annunciators (warning lights). -
Is it safe? Is it safe?

No, well, yes, errrrr, You see, The server is in the midwest, and Eric lives like 1000 miles away, and he drove all the way out there, started the process by bringing down the server, and then realized that he had left the damned card at home! So he drove all the way back home, picked up the card, and then hauled ass back to the server, chugging bottles of 5-hour energy during the trip (and tossing the empties on the back seat).

Yes, the hardware upgrade ($19.95 video card) is complete....

A Question about [WeaponAI] in the GroundObject.ini file.
Fubar512 replied to KJakker's topic in Mods & Skinning Discussion
From experience, I would say from the 3D pivot point of the actual model (note, I'm not refering to the "pivots" of the individual guns). -
Because it happened on his watch, he owns it (just as Roosevelt & Kimmel owned Pearl Harbor, GW Bush owned 9/11, etc) That's just the reality of the situation. The one president who comes to mind as dealing with a similar situation the best, was JFK, with the Bay of Pigs. He had little to do with it, but he publicly took responsibility for it.

Even two bit, fly-by-night tax-preparation firms run encryption software nowadays. In order to use on thumb drive on any system so-equipped, one needs to encrypt the thumb drive as well, theoretically rendering the data on it unreadable on any "outside" system that lacks the same encryption key. I'm sure the NSA uses something more secure than that.

Adding SAMS trough Mission editor?
Fubar512 replied to Stratos's topic in Mission & Campaign Building Discussion
It is possible, but seldom works out well, as you must place the battery of launchers and their SAM radar. You're much better off copying the offsets from amother SAM site, and then using that as a guide, place the entire battery by hand on your terrain-of-choice. A known issue: if you hard code the SAM-type (as opposed to letting the system randomly choose), the SAM radar(s) for the hard-coded battery will go into stealth mode, though this doesn't effect the AI at all. In other words, you won't see it on the RWR. -
If it's undocumented, how did Wrench find out about it?

Those so-called issues have been present in the series since 2002. I seriously doubt that ThirdWire even considers them to be of any importance, nor finds them detrimental to game-play in any way, shape or form.
-
1) The series was only intended to be played from one side, so the game engine will assume that you are flying a Western Powers/NATO or Israeli aircraft. 2) AWACs are only available by default with SF2NA, or on any terrain that meets the "naval map" parameters established with SF2NA 3) "Red Crown" is not an AWACs callsign. It is a GCI station. Red Crown referred to a GCI controller on a ship in the Gulf of Tonkin, during the Vietnam war.

No, we must employ imaginative techniques to capture the few remaining birds. Judging by this man's appearance, he has been quite successful at the endeavor....yum! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYz2QsDXqWk

No. To have VISIBLE hardpoints, you need to have someone create them in MAX (and you can add them using the fake-pilot method). Functional (albeit, invisble) ones are simply a matter of adding them in the data.ini file for that aircraft.
-
I suggest that you read the knowledge base.
-
You can "physically" (visually) add pylons using the fake pilot method, but someone will have to create them for you in Max. But otherwise, yes, it's a simple procedure, adding the desired positions in the aircraft's data file. But without the aforementioned "pylons", they'll be virtual.

So life-like in its maneuverability, that it was attacked by a hawk during a flight test! http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=mjOWpwbnmTw#at=134

Yes. By creating your own missions.

Did you recently change video cards? Turning off DX10 will kill your performance.
-
Yes, but the X-wings and Y-wings have retractable skids, and TIEs of all flavors were supported by racks when not in use (they could sit on their vertical fins, but as they did not carry a boarding ladder as a weight savings measure, it made it all but impossible for their pilots to board them from the "ground")

Recently, a company that performs high-definition restorations of old photographs, was asked by the Library of Congress to apply their magic to a collection of photos dating from the American Civil War (1860s), into the 1920s. The resulting images are, well, astounding in their clarity. Check them out at the following link: http://photosilke.blogspot.co.at/2013/03/historic-pictures-restored.html USS Oregon in dry dock at Brooklyn Navy Yard,1898
