Maybe have a us base on Guam that wasn't captured by the Japanese as a starting point? It might be that it could only be done as single missions rather than a campaign.

I thought he might do the Iranian Tomcat as a full aircraft DLC rather than just the skin. But then I suppose people may have just bought that instead of SF2:NA.

If we can get the terrain updated for NA carrier action we can have F-14 Fleet Defender V.2!

Isn't Baltika's North Cape map of any use? http://combatace.com/files/file/12275-north-cape-terrain-beta-for-sf2-by-baltika/ http://combatace.com/files/file/12277-north-cape-hotfix-correction-pak/ And the SF1 version: http://combatace.com/files/file/11891-north-cape-terrain/

I re-read that too a few weeks ago to get me in the mood for SF2:NA (as I'm sure many others did!) I'm currently re-reading Harold Coyle's Sword Point about WW3 fought in Iran - might be a good scenario for Gepard/Wrench's Persian Gulf terrain? Next up I'm alternating between Ian Fleming's James Bond novels and Stephen Hunter's Bob Lee Swagger series, both of which I'm slowly working through as I see them on Ebay - I didn't realise how close some of the Bond movies actually are to the books. Non-fiction military and aviation stuff is slotted in between the novels. BTW anyone know when the next Tom Clancy (Locked On?) is out in paperback? Having said that the last one - Against All Enemies - was one of the worst novels I have ever read! Badly written and badly edited - I don't think TC even had a hand in it except maybe to suggest a scenario.

If you've got the TMF Tomcats and weapons installed and now you can't get AIM-54A missiles for the stock 3W Tomcats try this: 1) Go to your mods folder and navigate to Objects/Weapons 2) Rename the AIM-54A folder to AIM-54A_TMF 3) Go into that folder and then rename the AIM-54A ini file to AIM-54A_TMF 4) Thee is no 4)That's all you need to do. Then when you go into the game the TMF Tomcats will select the AIM-54A_TMF, which will still be called AIM-54A in your loadout screen and the 3W F-14s will select the stock AIM-54A, again called AIM-54A in your loadout screen, which I guess is packed away in one of the CAT files. Works for me anyway.

That's not a railgun... This is a railgun! You know, a gun that runs on rails!

Pity FE2 isn't in the sale. It's the only title I dont have!

Looks great! Love the first Swedish pic. It looks like they're taxiing onto the runway from a secret hangar built into the side of the mountain!

Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop flying F-16s! Thanks guys.

Honey, I'm home!

I'm working on an icon pack using Wrench's style of 'flag vs flag' but am missing two of the most important flags in the series - Dhimar & Paran! I don't suppose anyone has these stashed away somewhere?

Well then this must be an early shot of the now aged King Husani Al'Galbhi of Dhimar And his son, commander of the Air Force, Prince Fa'ad Al Galbhi

Understood, thanks for the advice guys. Wrench, as this project is an extension (and homage ) to your earlier packs would it be OK to include them in whatever I end up releasing? At least it will bring them into the SF2 download section for those that missed them first time around. Full credit will be given and the readme reproduced etc, etc.

Sorry to say it Kevin but I think I like KeyboardChap's better and it was actually what I was expecting to see. I thought there might be some flags in the various 3rd party mods of the Desert terrain but no such luck.

Any notable events in the South Atlantic on this day in 1982?

I've set up a new Operation Darius install (fully merged/April 2012) and it worked fine. Then I added the IR_Water.bmp from Kodiak's water maps download and edited the IR2003.ini to add NavalMap=TRUE Now I can generate a singe mission that is carrier based but when I go to fly the game hangs at 80% for ages and then just crashes out to the desktop. This is even with land based missions. Any advice?

Thanks Kevin. That's my Bank Holiday weekend sorted then!

Many Happy Returns guys!

Just looked up Iraq Kuwaiti relations on Wiki and saw two crises prior to 1990, in 1961 & 1973: Ever since Kuwaiti independence in 1961, the Iraqi governments sought various opportunities to occupy and annex Kuwait. A short-lived crisis evolved in 1961, as the Iraqi government threatened to invade Kuwait and the invasion was finally averted following plans by the Arab League to form an international Arab force against Iraqi designs on Kuwait. Another crisis evolved on 20 March 1973, when Iraqi army units occupied El-Samitah near the Kuwaiti border, which evoked an international crisis. The Iraqi forces eventually withdrew under Saudi pressure. Love this concept though, and to add to the mix, in the earlier scenarios would western forces have been based in Iran too because this was before the 1979 revolution?

Many happy returns!

Eric, thanks for the reply. Looking forward to whatever you release too!

My vote was for the Russian ships & the Ka-25. Not to get OT but is anyone looking at the upgrading the ships in the Falklands campaign package to SF2NA standard? I know Invincible and some RN ships have received some love but I was thinking of the RN support ships, Fearless & Intrepid (especially for North Atlantic, Norway and other ops) and the Argentine fleet. Looking forward to whatever you release WBS!
