I do hope the goofball reference is to the original poster, as that is where I got the VoW reference. Just being paranoid...

It's a loading screen, why no thumbnail? I tried to see it, got "does not appear to be a valid zip file". Besides, what is VoW, anywho?

Oh, hell yeah! I have openly lusted the Valkyrie for a long time. being able to fly and fight it would be just exceptional! Looking good so far, press right on!

I am digging this map quite a bit. Have flown singles on it a bit lately, but would love to see a modern campaign created. I would give it a go, by basing it on the 50's era and updating, but cannot get the campaign editor working since SP4+. I have quickly dabbled in notepad, but usually blow it somewhere and it CTD's. Anyone else have any luck?

Yesh! It's getting closer, and I am starting to salivate...

I have looked through the 8 or so skins you have listed here, but see none with any explanation of how to choose which of the 4 camo schemes will be used. Would you please elaborate here?

Notepad, unfortuantely. I discovered that the DCE was incompatible very shortly after install. `Twas a bummer, be sure. I have since did some digging and was able to accomplish simple items, like aircraft replacement. I have an F-16A_10 running in the `79 WoE, for example. Anything more complex, and I'll probably blow it up. I'm good at fuggering up campaigns by editing. Do a search through USAFMTL's excellent knowledge base on these fantastic CA forums. They can help a bunch, though and update to DCE whould rock large!

That rear-view camera is absolutely inspired! Kick straight up after a bomb run, and see the damage!

Big improvements to the `pit, shaping up to be a 1st class jet!

Hi Fong, Pun intended. 1> You need to use GBU's on the primary target, as it is the only item illuminated with a, presumably, ground aimed laser. 2> No. A little more on the laser designation. With a bunch of editing, it is possible to carry one and self-illuminate, or even do one for a wingman, in theory. I have not done so myself, but have heard rumors that it can be...

It looks like you have the same issue I have, no tail letters on the 388th out of Hill. I have tried other skins on this jet, but the right side tail mapping is messed up. The left looks OK, but the HL doesn't show on the stock skin. If I knew squat from decals, I;d try to fix it...

Are you flying WoE or an earlier sim? I have varied weather all the time in the 3 campaigns I've finished thus far...

The creator of the F-111 `pit did not want it included, he wanted a seperate download. The link is in the readme, and very nicely done.

Cool. I mayt have to get this one, as I added the "A" model Falcon as well. It rocks in the WoE ToO...

It is accurate on the F-4. When the jet rotates, there is a danger of the aft centerline Mk.82 actually dragging. This can easily result in a `bad thing' in real life. Back in the day, we did not load that last bomb...

Did you create the pilot skin as well? Looks like the most real one I've seen...

Oooo, yeah, a DWS 39 Mjölner glide area denial delivery system. Slick! The old Tornado JP-223 with wings of it's own! Now all we need is a Typhoon, as it will carry it as well, and maybe a Raptor, for weapons testing, of course. Very ambitious projects, the best of luck with them...

I reckon you'll either have to; A> Wait B> Create your own...

An F-111 with a gun? It's not a dogfighter. The AIM-9's are for self defense only. We experimented with a "D" model bay gun IRL, but it was scrapped at our test squadron. It never made it into the field. As to the weapons pack, read the readme.txt, it explains how it should be installed correctly...

I found that out yesterday, as I added F-16A_10's to the WoE campaign. Something is odd with the right side of the tail-art/numbering. I may have to cheat and change dates for the "C", as there are few "A" model block 10 skins out there...

Red Lightening is the 1979 campaign that came with WoE...

I saw a bunch of Luftwaffe F-104's when I was TDY to Leipheim and Sembach in Germany. Looked sort of like this; Small F-104 pic And I concur on the F-111F's in `79 out of RAF Lakenheath. Upper Heyford had F's and E's...

Looks Sierra Hotel to these lack of new airframe eyes! Was the Gripen used in any military actions at all? Seems like an exceedingly capable jet!

If you are talking about add-on terrains and campaigns, then slap them right in the same folder structure as WoV and SF:P1. That's the beauty of it. WoE is newer, so most of the stuff out says WoV...

To merge them, all you have to do is have WoV installed, then WoE will ask if you want to merge them. Say yes, and it will automatically copy over the required files to be able to fly in either area. Got to the Thirdwire.com site for all the latest patches. As to add-on terrains, et. al., the super smart folks that make them also include a readme on how to install. Have fun!!!
