  1. I need to see if there is enough interest for this Cat in the first place, since it would be pretty much a mod involving DIY (kind of like Wrench's Tomcat FR.1). Not to mention that this guy is not optimized for WoI, unless you use fractalnoise's F-14 avionics update (would have used them, but for some reason the HUD turned out huge...video card issue?). EDIT: Downloading the WoI F-15I to compare weapons used...
  2. I got bored. Really bored. Took Wrench's IDF/AF Cat, and create a -D version out of it (data.ini-wise, borrowed Typhoid's F-14D for this). History says that these IDF/AF "Kardom" in reserve got out of the bag from the mothballs, and the aircrafts were upgraded to the F-14D standard (including installation of the the GE engines, which Israel were allowed to license-manufacture for their own use) with some of the Israelis' own touches (especially avionics and weapons compatibility). These aircrafts, designated as the F-14DI, took some part in the 2006 Lebanon War to deliver precision strikes (supporting the F-15Is and F-16Is) via LGBs and laser Mavericks, and high-altitude reconnaissance. Their status after the war is unknown, although it was believed that they were placed under the "contingency force" since the Israelis were wary of the threat posed by the capabilities of Iranian Tomcats, if they were to enter a war with the Iranians.
  3. Flew this guy several times. Let us say some MiG-31s and J-8s become victims to these birds.
  4. Suggestions for an Armor Sim?

    Speaking of BOTH OFP and ArmA, -2s of both games are promising, to say at least. The only question is when, and for OFP2, would current high-end systems even run it? (Since the vehicle physics engine for OFP2 is made with those based on DiRT's and GRID.)
  5. Of course, we could re-enact the fall of the Prince of Wales and Repulse as part of the IJN campaign or something if we wanted to...wasn't there's already a Repulse around here? It's a painful chapter in the history of the Royal Navy, but it is one that changes the face of naval warfare (or even warfare as a whole) in terms of battleship use.
  6. And for the 60s scenario, the most important base used by the RAAF (transferred to them by the RAF) is located in Butterworth (which till today is considered one of the major airbases). Heck, they even placed their Mirage IIIOs there! (the Mirage IIIO mod available around here is perfect for this...albeit a little late...and they gave us their Sabres instead of these babies.) As for the urban and jungle disposition of that period, its pretty much patchy, since urban development was concentrated on certain areas (those with heavy tin mining activity). Kuala Lumpur used to be a mining city before all this.
  7. The one in this thread IS the single seat M2k? Now, only if we can relive the moments from the French movie...after the guys sort out the download problems. Always wanted to fly one of these guys, loved them since the 90s.
  8. More like the one month blitz...or should I say, one week (of course, it was insanely fast, since the Japanese did their homework in a way similar to what happened elsewhere)? My history's pretty rusted by now .
  9. Awesome, something about home. The whole region? The_Editor: You are looking at the Indonesian-Malaysian Confrontation?
  10. 3rd Annual New England RC Jet Rally Photos

    Well...is the A-10 with a WORKING GATLING GUN there?
  11. IRST? Try to ask Blackbird to model something like that. He IS the master of modelling stuff like that for aircrafts that originally does not have them.
  12. Well...is your OS Vista? That might explain half of the problem you are having.
  13. I assume the word is strategic, since, well, uh, anything made by Lexx_Luthor have that theme on it. EDIT: Upon checking TW BBS (just registered, what the heck have I not done yet!), his thread is called 'Generic Cockpits'.
  14. This would be interesting for us Flanker fans.
  15. The 80th Iranian F-14A

    Well, I think I found this: http://www.military-quotes.com/media/showp...710/ppuser/3825
  16. Nice one there. The outer Sidewinder rails can be used for ALARMs too, IIRC.
  17. Speaking of Tornados...any chance of the oddity known as the Tornado EF.3? (Although it would be mostly adapting some GR pieces to the F.3.)
  18. If the card utilizes an nVidia chipset, you would not run into much problems, except dependent on the rest of the system. A 9600 should handle the tasks well enough, at least better than the 7300 by a wide margin.
  19. Who is your best male lead vocalist?

    You can say the same thing about George 'King of the Public Loo' Michael.
  20. Opening Ceremony

    Apparently, 'a senior member of the Politburo' is the one that asked for this. Pretty much someone from the inner circle. Let us say the endless conspiracy theories my family always talked about puts the money that she is someone related to some VIP.
  21. Opening Ceremony

    Doesn't that exist somewhere? Like, one guy skis to somewhere, shoots something, then skis again, shoots again. And repeat. It was something from the Winter Olympics, IIRC.
  22. Seriously. Just, for the love of heavens, seriously. This argument is getting old. Very old, in fact. The problem with pits is NOT a TW-only scenario, since pretty much part of the modding community for ANY GAME would go through a problem like this. If you think this is bad, then have a look at the modding community for LOMAC. If mismatched pits is enough for you to start a major topic like this, what about planes with a MERE EXTERNAL 3D MODEL SWAP (example, everyone must have heard of the ADA mod's Mirage 2000-5 external model, with a MiG-29S flight model, cockpit, etc, except for weapons loadout)? It could have been worse, since everything is hard-coded, which means as long as we do not have the source code for LOMAC (which we would never will have, by the way), we would never any radical mods (until the USN mod guys work their magic, hopefully). Even one of the mods for the champion of Switchtology, that is, the Red Viper for Falcon 4.0 (it's quite an awesome mod, and I hope we can see more in RV2, since a lot has been promised), suffers from bits of this problem with mismatched pits. Well, if a pit that functionally resembled the original aircraft's pit, for ONE aircraft, is a problem for you, then how about the pit of an F-16 in at least few of the planes (Tornados and Flankers, to mention just a few)? I applaud the decision of the mod makers to incorporate 3D pits in RV2. We should be lucky that TW games are flexible enough for us to incorporate our own improvements. We should even be happy that there are people making rather obscure planes for us to toy with.
  23. Anyone have an idea why some of the stuff are missing? What is missing here is 3D model for the Barrax ECM pod and the Phimat chaff dispenser.
