Got my groveling/worshipping smilie all ready! And if any of the mods want to add it, no probz, as I am the keeper of the smilies at the pilot's pub, check our collection; http://www.pilotspub.org/phpBB2/posting.php?mode=smilies

One of these; Mine looks just like it. It stands for Keyboard, Video & Mouse. This way you can have one of each of these and share it on 2 systems. I actually have the other system paused with a Baz mission waiting for my return.

Sure it does, diamond or square. As to the origins, C5, of what? The "Fatemoblie?" I am fairly confident this is the 1st time in my 48 years I have ever clapped eyes on it. But that may be due to my not being a Cheesehead...

Take off, fly in, fly out, and land for the majority. About the only time I don't finish in this manner is by taking that one last milk run before heading in for night-shift, and it not being a milk run! Then I get "mission complete" and ESC out. As to the boring parts, that is why I have a KVM, so I can switch over to the server en route and read boards and stuff. I hear an incident, switch back. Works for me!

>snicker< @ C5...

That would be cool! Then we could get one of these to piddle about in. The little guy in front, carried by the big guy in the back. Been enamored with `em since I saw one in a video at an air-show as a kid...

RAF Woodbridge had the same tailcode as RAF Bentwaters, as they were "twin" bases belonging to the 81st TFW. 7 squadrons at B/W & 4 at W/B, so I will be interested to see the differences. But the WA-wa jet with JAWS? Gotta have that! Cheers!

Yabut, that was in `68 with "B" model Sidewinders and "A" model Sparrows. In `82, the "L's" were up, and had all aspect, so should have a bit more of a clue versus something maneuvering more than straight and level. Ah, well, we do have a weapons editor now, time to see if this can be fixed...

I've found the opposite to be true. All the heat seekers now suck! And the Radars are even worse. I get a good tone, wait 5 seconds for stabilization, pull a bit off lead, and they still come off stupid 75 to 85% of the time. May have to fire up the new weapons editor and check the "L" model percentages, but so far this all aspect missile seems no aspect...

One tiny nit to pick. It is good to have the medals button, but mine is always greyed out. Why? As I have not received a one! 6 missions into a Netz campaign, wreaking havoc with 43 total kills, 7 in the air, and not one shiny medal to show for it! In the prior iterations, I'd have received a metric buttload by now. Have the parameters changed that much, or is it just broken? Anyone else get a medal yet?

I imagine that when, or maybe if, a patch comes out to bring WoE up to WoI standards, it will only work in WoI for now.

Another modern marvel, and a helluva lot of work, I am sure. Thanks a lot gentlemen, I look forward to blasting around in this beauty!

Well, that is odd. I am thinking they are related. Check out your options.ini for th following area; [GraphicsOptions] DisplayDeviceID=0 DisplayWidth=1024 DisplayHeight=768 DisplayDepth=32 AspectRatio=1.333333 LensFlare=0 DetailLevel=1 ObjectDetail=1 ObjectTexture=1 CockpitTexture=1 CockpitMirrors=0 CockpitReflection=0 EffectsDetail=1 TerrainDetail=1 TerrainTexture=1 HorizonDistance=1 GroundObjectDensity=1 WaterDetail=1 CloudsDetail=0 Shadow=0 AntiAliasing=0 These are the entries for my flyable laptop install here at work. Nothing fancy, so a compare should help. Especially if the Width= and Height= lines are blank.

Pretty cool damage model, innit?

A few things; 1> Either or, depending on personal preference, CB. 2> I looked for Mutlithreaded Optimization in my 169.12 drivers CP, but only found Threaded Optimization, which I switched to Auto. 3> Oh, my, flippin' heck! The engine doo-dad works!!! I'm going to try the weapons tomorrow, and have the vaunted ICT I have dreamed about for years! That, for the non-TAC initiated, is an Integrated Combat Turn. Wartime generation? Land, taxi into the ICT area, get fuel, weapons, and even a pilot, if required. Fire it up, and get in the air again inside XX minutes. Very cool stuff! Did you see a refuel= in there anywhere?

Yup. I was a Manager of their Tech Support after I got out of the USAF. Took a powder just before the CEO, Beny Alagem, bailed. Not I! At least until I can figure out how to utilize this information. If it is just entrails from FE, I will be upset.

Yup, I replied to that one, in a somewhats silly manner, and also pointed out that the BBCode was showing. He must've nuked that one, and tried again, as this one only has the top line that is a little, err, touched.

Downloaded to my server at home via "LogMeIn." Now I have to wait `til I get off of work to install to the game system. OMG, the clock is moving BACKWARDS!

Now that is friggin' cool! Oh, wow, look. I did not have to strip the image tags. Hornet made a change, `twould seem...

Just a smort-arse note, the USN never cottoned to the F-111, so there was only 1 "B" model ever made. Poor, sad little nosed rascal sat gathering dust a lot of years at McClellan AFB in CA. Just file this under worthless trivia, and press on. Hope these gentlemen's tips helped...

I am not fond of the mythos, and I am glad my name's not abell...

It was a tough one to find, what with the pointer directly by it. And that Kfir above is just awesome. New land textures, etc. The more I look, the more I want!!

There's life on them there flightlines! Sierra Hotel so far...
