Here are two of the most elegant interwar fighters IMHO. Sorry I couldn't find a color photo of the Fury And back on topic I sure wish we had Hanriots in BHaH, maybe in a plane pack down the line :yes:

Here's what I mess around with: Left 4 Dead (yeah zombies and lot of 'em! ) SH III & IV BIA Hells Highway (agree with Widowmaker best WWII combat) Steel Fury Karkov 1942 (Best WW2 armor sim IMHO) GPL (still the best)

No vote for me also, and thanks for the superpatch guy's

Welcome Iscin Your in for a real treat

No Pol never had Phase II on this rig lol, but Phase II is the main reason I don't want to do a complete reinstall. I did that with Phase II on my other rig and could never get it to reinstall again. Tried everything back then but the darn thing just wouldn't work, you guys did try to help me (at simouthouse? my handle was peashooter) but no joy so I gave up and Phase II went into the "can't play" pile. I went back to FE until I was able to get BHaH, so that has always been my biggest worry is I will have the same problem with BHaH like I did with Phase II on a complete reinstall. I know that might be an unfounded fear with BHaH but I definately adhear too these words of wisdom now, "If it isn't broken don't fix it" . So unless it's an official patch or add-on from you guys it don't get anywhere near my BHaH game folders

Real interesting now as I'm using Homeboys/radu settings also. Before using these settings I was using the suggested settings at the ODB site. My settings are 5/5/4/4/3 running at monitors native 1440x900 32bit/60mhz, DX drivers are up to date. But like I said the mirrors have never ever worked since I got BHaH, no matter what video driver, suggested set up or game patch I used. But if uncleal is correct it's not a big deal if it won't shows those Hun aircraft dropping in on my 6. So for me it's probably a good thing the mirror doesn't work since I won't get complacent about not checking my 6 as often.

Was taking a break from the serious and decided to look around the country side on the bicycle in QC. When I scrolled down to pick it I saw not only the bicycle but a Model-T. Hey did when we get that? So I fire her up but forgot I had my settings in QC to start my AC at 5000 ft! Lets just say THAT was a kodak moment . Anyway I really enjoyed the view, BHaH looks great in the air AND on the ground also! Thanks guys now I can take the boys into town for some real R&R Just watch the speed as this things flies like it has a 426 hemi under the hood! Sorry Axis guys did not see a benz in there so no R&R for you

Never seen it before, I knew there was a bicycle, maybe I just never scrolled down the list enough, still it does provide a nice diversion

Ahhhh Thx uncleal, I didn't know the mirrors served no SA purpose. Agree totally about the TIR, finally got mine several months back, what a differance

Interesting, I have an nVidia GT120 (equal to 9500 series) 1GB DDR2 ram GPU, Q4 Intel 2.33 CPU, 8GB DDR2, Vista 64 PHE. I am using the newest nVidia drivers but I don't think thats the problem since my rig shipped with the much older 176 drivers (?) and the mirrors didn't work then either. I have also followed the nVidia tweeking guide since the begining. Everthing else is working and running so great with BHaH and my other games so I don't think I want to do a clean reinstall of OFF or the video drivers, like I said I would like to have the mirror but it's not a big to do if I don't. But I do appreciate the input guys.

Wish I knew also sitting duck, my mirror in the Ni-17 (or an aircraft mirror) has never worked not even with the new superpatch. I would love to have this working and I did think about asking what I might have wrong but I hate too seem to be complaining as this sim and the devs have been so top notch, maybe it's time to do a search.

Just flew a couple of quick missions and a QC dogfight, wow much improved all around while I'm getting about the same framerates it seems much smoother, also my TIR seems smoother also. Was the AI tweeked? That QC I flew in dogfight mode had a real agressive Alba II pilot (I was flying a Ni-17). For a vet pilot he was very good, only giving me fleeting moments in my sights and using the ground to mask himself effectively. The flight went hi-lo in the vertical and horizontal. In the end we collided in a horizontal rolling sissors, we both died but man that was one of the best dogfights I had with BHaH in QC in a long time

Good to hear your at least able to fly CJ despite the FFB problems.

CJ, Just out of curiousity do you really have all your sliders set to five?

I would agree to a point Buddye, but what will the developers do when they have distanced themselfs so much from the customer base that he/she finally say's "enough is enough, they are asking for way too much from me now just to play a game" and just walk away from the genre or just stick with what they have already that doesn't involve intrusive DRM's or unreasonable requirements? Do we want this to turn into a "cut your nose off just to spite your face" thing? If I was a dev I would be looking high and low for something that protects my hard work but does not alienate the very customers who I need to survive, grow and prosper. I have seen these simulations come a long way in programming development and complexity and find it hard to believe a good middle ground solution is beyond reason and hope.

I can understand both views from the devs to the paying customer. What I don't like about RoF's DRM is that if for whatever reason no internet means no RoF. A person who pirated the copy could care less, but the guy/gal who actually bought it is gonna see it quite differently. I can see no good coming from a DRM like that for either side. There has to be a reasonable balance that can be reached so the dev's product has some good copy protection but not at the expense of an actual paying customer enjoyment of the product reguardless of his/her internet connection, or limited installs. All too often we take things for granted like problem free PC's or that internet connection is some God given right. I myself have been "off line" several times over the years due to just plain ol' budget constrains, but atleast I got to enjoy and play my sim's during these times. I've also had times where I had to reformat my HD several times (or replace), so I would not been very happy repurchasing something because I "used up" all my reinstalls. Maybe a multi layered form of copy protection instead? Like requiring a product key, CD in drive and asking a question from the game manual that requires a correct answer like Chuck Yeagers Air Combat and a few other did? I know it's a few hoops to jump through for paying customers but I would rather do this then the alternative

Hi Stapme Take a look for this thread in this subforum by CaptSopwith "suggested graphics settings, on my rig" from 7/15/09. When you find it scroll down till you see a post by HomeBoy showing his GFX settings in MSCONFIG for his rig. It differs a little from the suggested OFF BHaH game set up, but using this set up I'm getting 35 fps on the ground and 50-60 fps in the air and about 40-45 in combat. I'm running a Q4 processor 2.33mhz (no cores turned off) on a Vista 64 HP 8GB, nvidia GT-120 1GB rig at 1440x900 8x AA on a 19" WS FP monitor. Sliders at 5-5-4-4-4-3, I do still get a stutter but it's like a nano-second and if you were not looking for it you probably wouldn't even notice it, but the stutter could be that I use TrackIR and my head is always on a swivel when flying. Almost forgot to mention I am also using the BHaH offical suggested nvidia control panel settings.

What a long...long couple of weeks, PC had to go back to the manufacter for some major fix'in. Contemplated doing the repairs myself since I knew the wait would be a long one. But since I still have 8 months on the factory warrenty I say let them pay for the parts and labor . Well I see I missed a patch and some interesting postings. So I'm gonna spend a few hours catching up on current events, reinstalling my games and especially looking forward to a upcoming three day weekend with BHaH

Thanks OvS and Rickitycrate BOC ROCKS!!!!!!!!! Damn now I'll have to boot my son of the xbox360 and fire up Rock Band! LOL Rickity...yeah I seen a few post here I'd like to take the atomic breath too, but I'll be a good Gojira....for now

Never mind not important

Thank you for the update sandbagger and a big thanks to all on the OBD team that just keep making BHaH the most comprehensive and definative WWI flight simulator on the market to date (and for the foreseeable future IMHO). But I do have one question (request?) what are the chances we might see some of the earlier kites to fill out the squadrons in the earliest phase of the war, like the Ni-10, Morane Parasol, MF-11 and FE-8 (mainly the Ni-10)?

Good news indeed

Yes thats it (I prefer the Ford/Lotus myself ). Yes it's is a hard game to master or even to be just descent in, it's a lot like OFF BHaH in that aspect and like GPL I think BHaH will be on my HD for years to come just because of that.

Jeez the Mods at SimHq sure are busy banning people, wonder whats up with that? Sorry to hijack your thread milkweg, but my understanding is there is a SP campaign in RoF but it's apparently very lite, nothing even close to OFF BHaH SP campaigns. I do know there is suppose to be a mission builder but I have not really seen an user created missions yet. I'm sure eventually someone might string enough single missions together to make sort of a campaign but like anything made by end users it quailty may very greatly.

Funny you should mention launching cars in GPL Siggi. In GPL I have the Monza track mod based on the J Frankenheimer film Grand Prix. I'm a little ashamed to admit I spent quite a few hours trying to recreate Sarti's wreck from that film . Way too much time on my hands .
