  1. Duh! That's what happens when you get up in the middle of the night and start answering questions....part (if not most) of one's brain behaves as if it's still asleep.. Easy solution , add another step to the table, so the flaps are only open 10 degrees, if using one of the airspeed load tables. If using a G-driven table, either max it out at 10 degrees, or write up a cldc mach-table reducing the lift (or in this case, downforce) generated by the offending surfaces above mach 0.7
  2. AFAIK, one can only apply one set of opening parameters per surface. The parameters are (off the top of my head), automatic_mach, automatic_aerodynamic_load, automatic_g_loading, and automatic_angle_of_attack. If this is for the MF 'bug, I can tell you that its FM is way out of date. I showed Brain32 a little halfassed fix for it, but it really deserves better.
  3. Sorry, apparent (indicated) airspeed in meters per second.
  4. In m/sec
  5. Until you try to mod it, that is. Unless of, course, you defeat Windows UAC (not recommended).
  6. No, they didn't....the Lufwaffe, RAF, and the USAAF was using them during WW2
  7. The RL solution would have been quite simple: Gunpods
  8. Ammo capacity is not always a simple matter of weight, it's mainly one of space for the belted ammo. There really is no room for any more on that bird, nor do the internals allow for the fitting of, say, an M61 Vulcan with its generous magazine capacity.
  9. Keeping it simple, 1321 kg = 2906 lbs. The accepted "standard" weight for JP-4 is 6.75 lb per US gallon. Thus 6.75/2906 = 430.5 gallons. There are three fuselage tanks in an F-100, and two wing tanks. The forward fuselage tank wraps around the powerplant's intake tunnel, and is divided into center, upper, and lower cells. The center, or intermediate tank (the smallest of the three) lives underneath the powerplant's intake tunnel. The aft tank is slightly larger than the intermediate, and also wraps around the intake tunnel.
  10. And your point is?
  11. What, the MV Julius Fucik?
  12. Bombs, at least modern ones, do not "whistle". The whistling sound that Hollywood associates with dropping bombs, went out with the boxkite-tailed weapons of the Second World War. Witnesses who've been close enough to hear modern weapons dropped (and yet far enough away to have survived), reported that falling bombs made an aerodynamic "rustling" sound, not unlike that of an artillary shell. Of course, "slick" weapons, such as the old iron bombs dropped by B-52s during the Vietnam war, may have acheived transonic or even supersonic velocities by the time they hit the ground...so one would have heard absolutely nothing, as whatever aerodynamic sounds trailed the falling weapon, would have been overwhelmed by the initial shockwave and reverberations caused by its detonation! Speaking of Hollywood bomb effects, I always smile when I hear a "down doppler" sound whenever they depict a bomb hitting the ground nearby....I guess most of the Foley artists slept through basic physics in high school One would of course, hear an up doppler as the weapon approached....again, if they'd hear anything at all.
  13. There's a thread dedicated to just that very subject in the SF2 Knowledge base. In short, all effects require a shader effects statement in their materials section.
  14. LOL...I must be missing something, because I never known them not be. AFAIK, I've always had working bow and waist cats.
  15. If you're using the default "DirectX" axis, you can map them inside the game through the options/ controls/ customize menu. Assuming that you are also using CH pedals, well, the toe-brakes are not currently mappable in this series. You're missing out if you're simply using the default mapping on your CH products. You really need to PM 531-Ghost. Although he swings by this site occasionally, he's best contacted at CH-hanger.com.
  16. A tiny little detail....6 inch shells in flight
  17. If a tree falls in a forest, and there's no one around to hear it, does it make any noise? Is it ethical (or even possible) to accuse someone of committing piracy against pirates?
  18. Again, no coding, no sound.
  19. It would be real easy. Unfortunately, you'd never hear it in-game, as there's no presently no coding for it.
  20. Merry Chritmas to all of you, and your loved ones
  21. New Castle Couty AP's right next to route 13. I used to pass by there on my way to and from Virginia at least once a week, when I was working on a project down there. I recall seeing, and telling Dave about that '21. There's also been a '23 there on occasion. If you should stop at the McDonald's just south of there, be forwarned: Buy an extra order of fries for the birds in the parking lot, or the sea gulls will take hostages when you attempt to leave
  22. ducklings?
  23. Ahhhhhh....not quite
  24. Stary, Post process + diffuse equals what? You get one guess....
