Wow, this could be a very good thing. I mean it is nice to have the SFP1E, but it is pretty rudimentary. With these items mentioned, it could pretty darned slick! Rock and roll, iam73...

I've had issues with the Forceware 169.21's, especially when looking at the map. Any where the lines of travel are get blacked out. Unfortunately these versions for the 8800's have been there since the 17th of December, and I get the sa,e issue in WoI. I guess nVidia does not feel they need to keep up now that there is no competion...

Fly for the good guys?

I kind of like the idea, gets the creative juices flowing not being a free-for all. Yeah, I like it quite a bit...

Way to hold onto something! Almost 50 years later!

Absolutely. The ones he has crafted are to fill in the "gaps" as Israel has always had some smaller form of conflict between the bigger battles portrayed by Thirdwire. So yes, the stock campaigns are untouched and work just fine...

Yup, just went English, tossed it in my temp, will install at home later. Easy peasy...

Check under his avatar, he's at Tinker. Back in the 80's I do recall seeing a single rail outboard, mostly carried ACMI pods for training.

Very cool. Thanks for the insight Jug, I was never one of those SAC trained killers. Just an enlisted TAC puke...

Oo, cool. I had never seen it before, so was unfamiliar with the issue. Will try it out tonight, after work, unless I pass out from lack of sleep the last 3 nights, hoo-boy! Now if I could just figure out that that danged target situation. >Mumble, mumble, ah, mumble...<

Ah, you took me literally! The FOD truck I emntioned was to suck the treacle off the concrete. Sorry, a little Ex-AF linesman humor...

Done. Cool, I would not even have thought to look there. Can we get a FOD truck on the runway? ___EDIT___ You were editting as I was posting. As to the runway, I dunno either, as I tried 3 different jets, all the same. If I'd used a non-AB jet like the A-7 or summat, I'd have been stuck. And yeah, the range has had the Target non-switching issue since day 1, and it always vexed me. Just figured I'd throw it out there for someone less clueless than I...

Well sir, as per the modern_range_update.txt, I figgered I'd iterate some findings. First of all, I do like the newly added areas to the West, very cool depot, railway station, et. al. But, and you knew there had to be at least one, I have a couple of issues. 1> The runway is coated with treacle, or some super sticky and viscous gel. I need full AB to even get rolling! Tried the F-16XL 1st, and thought there maybe an issue with it, but the same occurred in the F-15E & the F-111F. Odd. 2> Some of the trucks, they look to be troop carriers, are without skins. Naked, as it were. I tried to target them to see what they are, but can only target one item until it is destroyed, which leads me to; 3> Why is it that you cannot scroll through ground targets on the range? It has always been like this. It will pick you out the nearest, and you cannot "T" switch until it is gone. I would love to be able to SHIFT+T through them like in any other map. There must be a setting somewhere that negates it at the range. I would edit the INI if I knew what setting caused this.

That and the fact that even though they bailed over friendly territory, WAY inside, and they are POW. Did they drag their `chutes across the desert looking for an Arab to throw their hands up to? I gotta track down the wounded/KIA/POW algorithm and see if I can tighten it up. I am down to 5 pilots in my `73 campaign, looks like I may be lone wolfing before too long...

I hope this flame belching beauty makes it into the DS add-on!

I am glad he is doing so! I really would like to light up a Lancer and create some Warsaw pact central heating!

Runway devastation has always been my favorite strike mission, and I love to move the mud! There is just something about ripping down the centerline, at the speed of heat with yer hair on fire, and green tracers slingin' your way.

Well, I can never pass up a good Easter Egg hunt, so after I got off at midnight-ish, I trotted home and loaded it up. Took the venerable F-16XL for a jaunt from Miramar, and headed north; Zipped through the valley and got down low to see some buildings that looked non-standard; Oh, what is that in front of the building? Easter egg find #1, I believe; The hunt will continue tomorrow night, as tomorrow morning, oops, in a few hours, I have to go pick up the wife from the airport. She is jetting in from Sacto, of all places...
