LOL that was shot on a competitors rig, it was a Global Semisubmersible (don't know which one), we are rated to drill to 35,000'. We have not gone 35,000' yet but we have done one to 5 miles and another at 6 miles of drill depth (that does include water depth). Cheers Beer

I have two 2.7 AMD machines sitting side by side... One has a GF FX 5600 256 in it the other has a ATI Radeon 9800 Pro. Side by side in a multiplayer game (Nascar 2003, Quake 3, or Strike Fighters) the Radeon 9800 Pro looks better without a doubt. But they both look really great, and the Radeon was if I remember right about $100+ (clock speed faster) more. But I think you would be happy with either, just a budget issue. Cheers Beer

Pilot.bmp must go in the /objects/aircraft/ directory It is the odd one out, generally the extracted files go in the same directory that the cat was extracted from. Cheers Beer

I will give it another go when I get home early November...what patches/mods do I need to be able to play online? And what services do I need (Hyperlobby, Gamespy?, JCN is no more I believe). Cheers Beer

Welcome! Been noticing Todd has been very busy! Looking forward to reading about what going on at Check Six from MrFrench! Cheers Beer

Well guys I feel like a software developer but I am sad to report that there is another delay in the completion of the video, I aquired another prop and intended to shoot the classic good vs evil gunfight with paintball guns and my 10 year old nephew (in lieu of the Gary Coleman Joe C fist fight), but I had technical difficulties with the gun (the 9V battery provided was weak, it was dark by the time I figured that out; also we had the wrong color paintballs (need Blood Red obviously). There will be at least a six week delay. I did get some good footage driving around in the Vette though! My humblest apologies... Oh I hired some clown as a producer his name is Uncle Kracker Cheers Beer

Just researched the gun and its the 76 MM, same as the PHM. In theory just export the Gun from the PHM and place that in place of it. Of course this is the gun that dont work in game... Got some good photo's of FFG's I may start over, could not find any three views, just a side view. Want to make the latticework for the mast (was not solid as current model), liferafts on bridgewing, add rescue boat and davits, add handrails, forecastle area needs work (deck fwd was not raised up). Cheers Beer

I have on one of my pages, its down on the bottom just above the skins how too. http://www.retrorelics.net/jim/sfp1_how_to.htm Cheers Beer

http://www.retrorelics.net/jim/FilesDL/SFP1clkclkboom.wmv Right click save as I did this vid flying around the Forestal with an A-4 (it shows the old effects) then the new ones by deuces from a (F-4B). Music by Saliva. Cheers Beer

OK I am off to work so I may have time now to play with the FFG... Here is what I propose, You work with the weapons (remodel the Guns and missile launchers and I will work on the Superstructure and mapping... Here is a question...Can we use decals like the Planes so that the ships have different hull numbers??? I have no idea how to do it but it seems like it should be very possible... Cheers Beer

Very cool! So the Missiles work on one model and the other has the midships 5" working... A great mission would be CAP over the FFG's and a watch the ships engage the MIGS with guns and missiles. Model and Mapping needs tweaking. Cheers Beer

Well that was ugly... Tried to install and WinXP told me it was not a Win32 application... Tried compatability mode and that failed...Sorry no joy on Fleet Command here... Cheers Beer

I got it like you been a while...I will reload it and see how it goes ;) Cheers Beer

Imagine CV Flight Ops in SFP-1. Of course you can not land or take off from it, but here is a little 6 meg Vid of a VF-84 F-4B playing around the carrier. Best bet is to "save as" before viewing, but it will stream. http://www.retrorelics.net/jim/FilesDL/CV59sept1.wmv This Vid made with FRAPS Cheers Beer

Someone say "Cold One" :P NavSim Editor is going to be a welcome challenge, I am, as the other staff members here at Biohaz, passionate about simming, from FPS, Air Combat, Naval Combat, to Nascar, I just want a great gaming expierence! I am a die hard Multiplayer fan for just about any game. My background as a former Naval Officer conducting Maritime Patrols and Coordinated Ops with Carrier Battlegroups with missions ranging from ASW, ASUW, to SAR; combined with my present day life as a professional Merchant Marine Officer, gives me a insider perspective to NavSims which I hope to bring to you. I look forward to sharing with the members of Biohazcentral my insights to what interest all of us here...that being Gaming! Cheers Beer

Those are some great shots! Cheers Beer

I scored a 5500 2003 3D mark "stock" with the following ASUS A7N8X 2700 AMD T Bred Processor 1 gig 3500 matched OCZ Ram Radeon 9800 Pro Preventer was able to get 6000 with this same system but with the ABIT NF-70S rev 1.2. I had to ditch that ABIT board becuase it would not run in my garage with room temps of 85-90 degree's F. Cheers Beer

It is in production, my last time home I took some footage and what not to get a feel for what I wanted in the next one. This one will not be just sitting in front of the webcam and will likely feature a 1999 Corvette convertible, a black cowboy hat, some cutouts of Daisy and Elvira, and a 300 pound ham ;) For those who have no idea what we are talking about here is a link to the first video http://www.retrorelics.net/jim/FilesDL/Beer.WMV Cheers Beer

Sure. I get off my Ship Friday and have three weeks off, I will PM ya. Anyone else want to fly in MS2002 multiplayer PM me. Cheers Beer

How about a follow up with multiplayer (be happy to help and fly wit ya) and addons (particularily the Navy ones we like Seawolf!). Cheers Beer

I am partial to Pete's Wicked Ales...one of my favorites is a Petes Wicked Strawberry Blonde... From my personal selective samplings...I have found Strawberry Blondes go down very smooth! 8) Cheers Beer

As Usual we disagree. I happen to like Corona... I am looking forward to my chopper ride to Leeville LA this coming Friday in the early AM, this will link me to my Van ride to the New Orleans Airport during which we stop at the Texaco and buy our first beer in weeks (thank God there are no laws for buying beer in the AM!)...mine will be 2 Coronas chased down with a couple Sausage Biscuits while I enjoy the scenery of the Louisanna bayou's enroute to the N.O Airport. Nuthin like an Ice Cold Corona on the way to the house after a few weeks on the rig. If you did not like your fingers getting sticky from the Lime (did ya float the Lime?), try Tequizza...the Lime is built in. Cheers Beer

I am a multiplayer fan... I long for those Quake 2/3, HalfLife, Janes USAF multiplayer games that multiplayer worked outta the box and was filled with fast furious combat. I miss being on comms with the ODB in an intense fight that was challenging and immensely fun... Half Life 2's release date is/was 30 Sept, whats the lastest intel? I have read that it is believed to be delayed (source: planet half-life)...however Sept 30 is just around the corner. Maybe a title will be on time, and on Par with its promises???? Who has some intel? A hot game potentally two weeks around the corner??? Cheers Beer
