At the moment there is no other way then the one Stick descriped. But if you look in the Nations.ini you will find in every single Nation the line SpeechFile=USAFSpeech.cat At the moment it is not possible to make a different SpeechPack running, but i give the hope, that in futre updates it will be possible. Perhaps we should ask TK for that feature.

Soulfreak, PM an Dich ist raus.

After the = it is empty, what means it doeas not exist.

Its now nearly 20 years ago, that i nearly had started WW3. And this came so: It was February 1989. I came fresh from the Sergeant School to my new helicopter squadron. It was a very small unit, around 100 men (pilots, technicians, meteorological personal, staff etc) and i must say i had a very good live there. It was like a big family. By certain circumstances i became a member of the SAR Team which was founded in early March. Our job was to search and rescue shot down pilots, a more theoretically job, but it was the order from "above" to form such a team and so was it done. You cant compare it with todays CSAR operations, we were only 4 men for this job, so it was a better joke. After some training on the job we were ordered to go to the border line, to "sniff how the enemy smells". Also we climed on the loading space of a W50 lorry and drove to a border unit. When we arrived there we were seperated, each of us got a skilled border soldier as partner and leader. I came to a Stabsoberfähnrich. He was a Borderranger (Grenzjäger). I had never heared before this term. And so i was not thinking very much as he told me to climb in the small Trabi Jeep. On the backseat sat a dangerous looking german shepherd dog with the name Anja. But it only looked dangerous, in reality it was the most friendly dog i have seen, but that i found out later. At this moment i had a lot of respect for this animal. The Borderranger drove the car and after a while we stoped near the Border fence. He took Anja on the dog lead and then he was walking straight to a small door in the fence. I thought "What for the hell is is doing?" and then he opend the door and ordered me to follow. Now i learened that the border fence was not the border itself. The fence stood on GDR territory between 50 and 3000 metern "friendward". The terrain between the fence and the border was the patrol area of the Borderrangers. And now my terrain too. Also we started to walk the line and it was not very different from a camping tour, only that we had a shepherd dog with us and our Kalashnikov rifles on the back. On the first day we saw not much of the "enemy", only some west german BGS who shot some photos from us. Nothing else. The second day was not very different and the strange feeling to walk on the wrong side was gone. But on the 4th day it changed around 13.00 o clock. We had eaten our meal when we heared a sound i have never listend before. It was a mixture between helicopter and panzer tracks. "We get guests!" told me the Borderranger "Who?" "Amis" And some minutes later a M-1 Abrams tank came out of the wood. Exactly on the border he stoped, then he turned on the place and stood parallel to the border. The hatch opened, the tank commander and a other crewman looked out, grined and started to communicate. "Dont let provoke." ordered me the Borderranger, "Not one single word." And so only the americans tried to "deepen the friendly relations between the peoples". Every 3rd or 4th of their words was "f.cking". All and everything was "f.cking". And it seems to be, that she had a funny time. They laughed and we stand only 5 meters away, still and silent and looked on them. After a while of "one sided communication" the two americans started to communicate more provokativly. The raised midle finge gesture and nice words like "stupid commies", "f.cking red krauts", "motherf.ckers", "whitebreads" etc came over the border. While the Borderranger was completly relaxed, i started to worry about it. Just in this moment Anja, the dog, had a natural need, crouched down and let fall a piece of dirt. Not long thinking i took the dirt and throw it away, directly in the face of the tank commander. It was the first time that i have seen that the face of a black man can become white. One second later the 2 americans vanished in their hatches. Now i started laughing, but only for some seconds, then the turret of the Abrams started to turn and stopped when i looked directly into the gun barrel. It was not really a nice feeling to have a smoothbore gun on your chest. Then the tank commander came out of the turret, but not more smiling, with an angry face. "Blockhead!" said the Borderranger, and i was not sure wheter he meant me or the americans. Then the shouting over the border started again, but now we shouted back. It was a realy good and long "deepening of friendly relations" now. Finaly the the relaxed behaviour of the Borderranger was gone. He took a handfull earth from a mole hill and pushed it deep into the 120mm gun barrel of the american panzer. This was the moment that i saw the second time the white face of a black man and i dont know how this confrontation would have been ended if not suddenly the sound of a helicopter was hanging into the air. Few seconds later a soviet Mi-24D was hovering and now the american tank commander looked into the barrel of a machine gun. His reaction was fast. He dived into his tank. The engine of the Abrams started and some moments later he run away and disappeared into the wood. It was a big fun at this moment, a big adventure, but later i got a very big rebuke from my commander. And now 20 years later i think my commander was right. What all could have happen. What if the americans would have shot on us, what if the soviet Mi-24 would have shot on the american Abrams? The start of the big bang in Central Europe? And all this because i had thrown a piece of dog dirt into the face of an other young man. This was my small adventure on the borderline. I have never seen the border again. I was banished into the hinterland.

Gutes Argument. Aber es gibt oder besser gesagt es gab ja auch die LSK/LV und dort war eher ein Deutsch Russisch Mix zu hören. Deshalb wäre mir ein komplett deutscher Mod lieber. Somit wären beide deutschen Luftwaffen nach 45 abgedeckt. Würde sich jemand finden, der die F1 und G1 Dateien ins Mikro spricht? Und hat jemand eine Frau oder Freundin, die für uns die T1 Dateien stimmlich versorgt? Ich habe meine Frau gefragt, aber die hat nur gemeint ich hätte eine Meise!

You can fly over Israel in WOE if you use the available terrains and planes. But WOI is not to expensive. I have them all and i love them.

I think you can't solve that problem. As you already said: if you set show missile=true then you have the strange looking, if you set show missile=false the SAM will not fire. Not really satisfying, but in game you will not very often come so close to a SA-7 to see this mistake.

Ich habe die Beta version als download eingestellt. Ihr könnt ja mal reinhören und sagen was ihr davon haltet.

When the SAM warning comes press button R and then F4. Then you see the SAM launcher position. It very helpfull for me.

Hast leider Recht. Das mit dem CAT file funktioniert irgendwie nicht. Ich habe die Dateien wie im oberen Beitrag beschrieben zum CAT gepackt und in den Speech Folder gestellt. Aber leider hat das nicht funktioniert. Sio bleibt nur die alte Methode die originalen Sprachdateien mit den neuen zu überschreiben. Ich werde morgen oder übermorgen eine erste Beta Variante in die Downloads einstellen. Dann könnt ihr Euch das erst einmal anschauen und dann sehen wir weiter.

Ich habe folgendes ausgeknobelt: Es gibt 8 Kategorien von Stimmen die sich anhand der ersten beiden Stellen des Dateinamens erkennen lassen. A1 Pilotenstimme 1 A2 Pilotenstimme 2 A3 Pilotenstimme 3 D1 Jägerleitoffizier = Bodenkontrolle F1 Bomberleitoffizier = forward air controler G1 Bodentruppen T1 Frauenstimme Bodenkontrolle W1 Flügelmannstimmen = Wingman Bisher habe ich A1 bis A3 aufgenommen und mit D1 begonnen. Wenn ich D1 beendet habe lasse ich den Rest fürs Erste unverändert. Dann werde ich versuchen das Ganze in eine .CAT Datei zu packen. Der Grund ist folgender: Wenn man sich die Einträge in der NATION.ini anschaut, so scheint es möglich zu sein anderssprachige Speechpacks zu nutzen.

The same question in english and someone will help you.

Take the good old European Air War or Battle of Britain II.

Nice bird for Battle of Britain.

As far as i know there are no red side campaigns for my Formosa terrain available.

After a while playing FE i was astonished to realize, that i nearly always choose the german birds, seldom the british and never the french. But only in WW1 scenarios. In WW2 scenarios or WOE, WOE, WOV i'm not nationfixed. Astonishingly my son acts similar. No problem to fly the Me-109, Spitfire or Mustang, but in FE always the german Fokkers or Albatros. Now i'm curious wheter you are in WW1 nationfixed too. Does the british gamers prefer the british planes, the french gamers the french birds and the germans, like me, choose the german planes?

Not really correct. East german tactical numbers were 3 digit, also never a chance to get the No.13.

Never No.13. You will no russian plane find with a tactical number 13.

Yes, Virginia, There is a Santa Claus By Francis P. Church, first published in The New York Sun in 1897. We take pleasure in answering thus prominently the communication below, expressing at the same time our great gratification that its faithful author is numbered among the friends of The Sun: Dear Editor— I am 8 years old. Some of my little friends say there is no Santa Claus. Papa says, “If you see it in The Sun, it’s so.” Please tell me the truth, is there a Santa Claus? Virginia O’Hanlon ***************** Virginia, your little friends are wrong. They have been affected by the skepticism of a skeptical age. They do not believe except they see. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds. All minds, Virginia, whether they be men’s or children’s, are little. In this great universe of ours, man is a mere insect, an ant, in his intellect as compared with the boundless world about him, as measured by the intelligence capable of grasping the whole of truth and knowledge. Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus! It would be as dreary as if there were no Virginias. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The eternal light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished. Not believe in Santa Claus! You might as well not believe in fairies. You might get your papa to hire men to watch in all the chimneys on Christmas eve to catch Santa Claus, but even if you did not see Santa Claus coming down, what would that prove? Nobody sees Santa Claus, but that is no sign that there is no Santa Claus. The most real things in the world are those that neither children nor men can see. Did you ever see fairies dancing on the lawn? Of course not, but that’s no proof that they are not there. Nobody can conceive or imagine all the wonders there are unseen and unseeable in the world. You tear apart the baby’s rattle and see what makes the noise inside, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest man, nor even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived could tear apart. Only faith, poetry, love, romance, can push aside that curtain and view and picture the supernal beauty and glory beyond. Is it all real? Ah, Virginia, in all this world there is nothing else real and abiding. No Santa Claus! Thank God! he lives and lives forever. A thousand years from now, Virginia, nay 10 times 10,000 years from now, he will continue to make glad the heart of childhood. ***************************************************************************** Francis P. Church’s editorial, “Yes Virginia, There is a Santa Claus” was an immediate sensation, and went on to became one of the most famous editorials ever written. It first appeared in the The New York Sun in 1897, almost a hundred years ago, and was reprinted annually until 1949 when the paper went out of business.
