Is there a way to enable the Stock F-4F in WOE to carry radar guided Air to Air missiles? Thanks

Well everything worked well except that only one AIM-7 appears to be able to be carried. But I think it's my fault. When you say, "add the respective components to the fuselage". How exactly do you do this

Oh thanks, Simple Enough

Well due to all the problems I've had in the past I have recently re installed WOE, and finally everything works! So thanks again for everyone's help. But one thing that I have noticed is that although I have added many extra ships to my current install, I still only get cargo ships, or tankers when flying an anti shipping mission. I'm not sure if I have ever heard the fix fot this or not (if there is one). So sorry if this is an old an obvious topic. But if anyone knows how I'd appreciate it. Thanks

Thanks Alot

Does anyone know a fix for the shimmering trees in the stock VietnamSea terrain, with the GreenHell2 update. I have tried many settings but they just won't stop that distracting shimmering. Thanks

I noticed that in my installation of WOE that different terrains seem to have one issue in common. The targets and numbers of targets are unique to each terrain, in a weird way. For instance every time I fly a mission in the Libya terrain there are never any static aircraft on the airfields, but there are always plenty of ground targets such as AAA Sams and tanks. However When I fly a mission in the stock VietnamSEA terrain there are tons of static aircraft, but never any more than two ground targets, usually a Sam launcher, and it's radar but thats it. Is there a way to make it so there are always both of these target types in each terrain, in large numbers. Thanks

Oh okay sorry. All I see for unlimited is the graphics options, is this what you mean? Thanks

Well so far no difference, I placed the Desert Airfields in Libya but no parked aircraft yet. And when you say set Groundobjects to unlimited, do you mean the line that says GroundObjectDensity? Thanks

Oh sorry now I get it. Thanks

What I cannot find is the base .CAT folder when I click Terrain/Libya I don't see the little yellow icon where all the files are stored like the stock VietnamSea, and GermanyCE have.

Where would I find the cat files in the Libya terrain. I know the stock Vietnamsea terrain has them in the cat extractor. But I didn't see them for the added terrains. And Thanks for your help!

Well I just noticed that I was a little premature in thinking that I solved this problem. After I did the fix in the options menu I was only playing the Vietnam terrain. I just now noticed that although the vietnam terrain targets have been fixed, Libya still lacks static aircraft on airfields. Also the line I changed to get the Vietnam targets was GroundObjectDensity. I did not see just a line called groundobjects. Is there something else I need to do?

On my new vista computer my new install of WOE works fine, but every minute or so the game mutes itself. The game will then minimize by itself and the volume controls will open. All I have to do is uncheck mute, and then maximize, but this obviously shouldn't be happening, and it's very annoying as you can imagine. Is there a way to stop this? Thanks

Today I attempted to 7zip a file into my WingsOverEurope/Objects/Aircraft, and the file did not appear in the list. So I decided to just drag the file into the aircraft folder, and as soon as I did there was a compatibility files link in the aircraft file. I clicked on the link and there was a complete seperate install of the aircraft there. So I'm wondering why would the aircraft already be there but the name would not appear on the list, unless I drag it there. Thanks

Oh jeez, I feel like an idiot. I remember now its just been a while. Thanks for your help

I'm not a computer expert, as you can see. But how do you prevent this from happening, I made sure everything I extracted to the game was fully broken down to just the Aircraft, weapons file etc. So is there a way to fix this, because I'm not sure how. Thanks

This is more of a computer question, but several of the aircraft that are under Program Files/Wings over Europe/Objects/Aircraft in my install do not appear on the single mission screen, nor are they even in the game. I installed them correctly (I think?) but they're not there. Any ideas? Thanks

Well I'm not sure if this has anything to do with the problem. But today I attempted to 7zip a file into my WingsOverEurope/Objects/Aircraft, and the file did not appear in the list. So I decided to just drag the file into the aircraft folder, and as soon as I did there was a compatibility files link in the aircraft file.

I've been playing thirdwire sims a long time, and have always wondered one thing. How do you get the best graphics, and quality? I have a new computer, and I believe I follow all the rules for graphical, and video enhancements setups. However I have never been able to get my game looking like some of the images on this website which look incredible. For example I have done all the Terraindata changes for shimmering water, the problem of the ground, and buildings shimmering as well, post Oct2008 patch but still cannot fix anything. Also all the aircraft still have the odd shimmering pattern around their sillhouette's no matter what I do. I know I'm not an expert, and all this is probably just my inexperience. But is there an instructional article, or any fix for an inexperienced gamer on how to easily get the graphics up to these great standards? I don't mind how long any fix takes, that's fine with me. I've recieved outstanding help from the members of this site, and I thanks everyone. But if anyone can help with this one somewhat large problem I'd really appreciate it. Thanks Again Everyone!

The catalyst control center did make it look ALOT better, good enough for me. I had no idea it was so simple, thanks again for everyone's help!

Oh just found it, Thanks

Well I just downloaded catalyst control center but it does not appear to be anywhere on my computer, is there a certain folder to find it in?

Where exactly do I find these options, are they in the control panel?
