  1. I can take off from the runway and play the game just fine, but the only problem is that I am one of those people that sweat the small stuff. I was wondering if there is a tutorial on taking off in strike fighters 2 vietnam, europe, or just sf2?
  2. Wheel Brakes While Landing

    I can land just fine every time now. I read on these forums, however, that wheel brakes shouldn't be used when landing. What, then, are the wheel brakes used for? Just for taxiing? The remark made on here stated that using your wheel brakes would burn out the brakes on a real f-16. So, how is one supposed to slow down enough to taxi and not going flying off the other end of the runway? Does it have to do with aerobraking, only?
  3. making more planes flyable

    There is a .txt file for download for FAF which requires you to delete a certain file that then allows you to fly any aircraft, with the f-16 cockpit, of course. My question is does anything change? Besides the look of your plane, does anything else? If I were to fly an f-15, would I go faster, maneuver differently, etc?
  4. I recently bought Strike Fighters 2 and noticed that some skins seem to be missing. While on a campaign, I noticed that mig-17 had green skins while j-6? farmers and mig-21s had no skins. Is this normal? Did something get messed up during install?
  5. Thank you MigBuster, I reinstalled using the .exe that I already had--thought I should attempt this before downloading the game again--and the problem is fixed:)
  6. White, and they have no numbers or anything; just the shape.
  7. I'm guessing the proper way to takeoff goes something like this: 1. Disengage wheel brakes. 2. Throttle up. 3. Pull up lightly around 150 knts. 4. When airborne, raise landing gear and flaps
  8. Okay, is there any tutorials for the sim then?
  9. First of all, I know the game is a much better experience using realistic avionics/radar, I know. I personally like the simplified radar. So, here is my question. While navigating I look at my steerpoint screen and see some info that really does nothing for me. However, when I press the Stpt button on the aircraft, I get a cool looking screen that--I think--tells me how long it will take me to get to the stpt and what altitude I need to be. Is this screen correct? Should I use this screen to navigate waypoints correctly? If so, what is the purpose of the screen that shows up BEFORE you press the stpt key? Here is an image to show you the screen I am talking about:
  10. How to navigate steerpoints using Simplified Radar

    Thank you:) I'm not really interested in the wind speed and all that other info. I'm just trying to get to the right place at the right time. Does this basic info, pictured in my DED, contain all the bare essentials?
  11. Is that hard to do?
  12. will those mods work with sf2?
  13. Hello, I installed USAF and Superpro 9.4 on my vista 32. I have everything working just fine, except for my video card screwing up. I have a nvidia Geforce 8800gt 1024 mb video card, and apparently Nvidia has stopped making cards compatible with older games? I can play the game, but I only get around 1 fps and the screen seems to slowly fade in to the cockpit. Any suggestions, fixes, or solutions?
  14. I bought both SFII Europe and SFII Vietnam. When I start up Europe, I can see the Vietnam campaigns in the selection as well. Do these games interlock with each other? In other words, does one game support the other?
  15. Thank you both:) That answers my question perfectly
  16. I know, stupid question; the answer probably lies right in front of my face, but I am riddled with confusion... So, where does one find Strike Fighters 2 Europe mods, models, and what not? Thank you in advance.
  17. What is this, and what is it for? There's a little circle inside the big one as you can see.
  18. F4:AF runs a little slow. I have more than a good enough computer to run it on the highest settings that it can go. I am in campaign mode and when watching other planes, the '8' key, they seem to be running a little choppy/slow. Also, sometimes when I am cycling through planes they show up as triangles for 3 seconds and then the model is finally loaded and I see it for what it is. Is this normal?
  19. Is the game supposed to run a little slowish?

    I do have a dual core I just dunno if both are being used or what.
  20. Is the game supposed to run a little slowish?

    Also, is there a way to configure the campaign so that I can do mostly Air-to-air instead of a2g.
  21. Planes

    Yes, I have noticed this and it is annoying.
  22. I was just wondering if I land, my wingmen will do the same? I know there is a return to base command, but must you use it? Will they not land if you don't tell them RTB? Also, do enemy aircraft take off and/or scramble? Do they complete missions and then land at their base? Or are they just predestined to fly around always?
  23. Do your wingmen know when to land?

    Tyvm:D I tend to worry too much about little details:p
