    I purchased First eagles 2 some time ago and just recently got a new computer.  I do not have my original FE2 download. Is it still avilable for someone who has already purchased the game?

    same here bought FE2  ages ago from my UK email address  & the  code is going to it , But im in Spain now and cannot access that account anymore to retrieve the code !
    no reply from ThireWire SUPPORT 
    and now i just got  windows 10 64 bit so  FE1 dont work either ! so cant finish  any skinning !

    gunbus skin

    View File

    Hi guys i bought a 2TB HD & have been dumping everything on it from my old HD's that i fear will give up the ghost at any moment
    so anyway i came across some files with no names except 00000000. file
    that i had tried to salvage from a dead hard drive a long time ago it turns out that many are FE skins i was working on before it gave me the click of death !
    so i just downloaded Stephens gunbus to see if i had all the files & yes i do
    so here it is

    No, no, no! :no: IMHO, you don't have to draw crosses directly on .bmp files. 'Cause they will be smeared at certain angles you see the object from. It would be much better if you left the skins "as is", while the crosses would be separate decals, as it is customary to do now. You could have noticed that Stephen Himself is doing just so.

     

    P.S. "I have pathological hatred to paint on decals, especially in FE 2, because the .bmp format is just terrible, Jpg is much better (load a few FE aircraft into SF 2 and you'll see what I mean !!!)" © Trotsky00 :grandpa:

     

    In any case, thanks for your work.

    just added a blank linen skin

    Hi guys 
    my hard drives got corrupted then  wiped then while booting after recovering them ,  the one with all my FS2 / FE2 stuff got the CLICK of DEATH trying to chkdsk for the thousandth time!
    so i was whining on the phone to my brother & he said have you tried WAR THUNDER so I did & it's GREAT in SIM mode it is amazing !
    & they just brought out a 64bit  CDK pack to get into the game engine !
    that lets the community users add 3D PLANES !!
    So I thought of All the HARD work that has already been finished by you guys so many great 3D models are already made 
    so maybe if you have something you would like to share with flight simmers in WAR THUNDER  you could port them over  
    WW1  is not touched yet 
    30's biplanes on 
    & the ITALY tech tree is not finished 
    there are always about 40,000 online at any 1  time so your contributions would make a lot of flight simmers very happy bunnies !
    although i must say I spend most of my time in the TANKS part  of the game but that because there is no WW1 yet but IT IS TRULY AMAZING!
    & totally free to play !

    but there is so much that can be done 
    WW1  is not touched yet 
    and 60's

    Hi guys 
    was using my laptop the other night and it locked up no keyboard commands could shake it
     ctl ,alt ,delete  could do anything so i rebooted  & it said 
    NO O/S
    So  i rebooted 
    same shit 
    rebooted into the bios HARD DRIVE 0= NONE    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?????????????????? :angry: 
    so i put the recovery disk in the cd rom & rebooted so it goes through the motions blar blar 
    says need to format the hard disk , I'm thinking  wow it sees the drive! maybe it is just scrambled & not fried !
    so its tries but fails to put vista back onto the hard drive soI put it to one side & go dig out my old desktop that was relegated to the back room on account of all the fans being to noisy !!? for the delicate ears of others  from the back so fired it up & got it all up to speed with drivers & updates , I forgot I used Glary's DEFRAG in the past , & after a couple of boots windows said I need to run CHKDSK i thought nothing of it until it started to 
    flag up a load of entries put $ in front of a bunch of files & said they are orphaned files !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?????????
    So I'm thinking HOLY CRAP Not again after the crap i just had the alarm bells were ringing bigtime !!
    booted into window looked in my computer ALL drives other than C said no data need to be formatted before being able to use them !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???????????????????

    checked the NET & it's not uncommon from CHKDSK to ruin your day :diablo: !?

    everyone said EaseUS is best recovery tool to use 
    so I dl'd it &  it saw the raw data straight away BUT it only allows 10 files to be retrieved using the free trial 
    & searching the drives is painfully slow !

    anyway while all that is going on I thought well at least all my PSD's for FE2 & my other working on stuff is safe  because there on the external drive
    so there is not way anything has buggered them up

    WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????????????????????

    It was plugged into the bloody Laptops usb & the DRIVE the recovery disk found was IT & not the bloody DEAD internal drive I thought it was FORMATTING !!
    SO when it said format to begin installation of vista IT FORMATTED MY BLOODY BACKUPS!!??

    So now I have to RECOVER THAT BLOODY  300gb's of data also AT A SNAILS PACE!
