  1. The P-47 my be in Wolf's WWII pack: http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?app=downloads&showfile=4363
  2. 5 Certifiably Insane Cold War Projects

    Warmed, not triggered... (to prevent the fusing device from freezing)
  3. The ini file entries only work in 2nd gen sims, right?
  4. Greatest Air Raids

    Don't get me wrong (I know it's a pretty emotional topic - epecially for Americans), but the basic idea of kamikaze is not THAT dumb - it has a strong psycological effect on the opponents, and a higher precision than automatic guiding systems of the time. Don't forget the cultural difference - a single life didn't count that much... And every military - be it then or now - sees soldiers who give their lives for others as "heroes" (even if it doesn't really save anybodies life - as long as "the others" die, everything is ok...). You can call me a cynic, but in my eyes there are no heroes in a war - only victims - some alive, some not (and I really don't know which ones are the more fortunate)...
  5. SoW:BOB screens

    I#m not sure if i want to know...
  6. Greatest Air Raids

    Well, if it's about the balls it takes to fly the raid, every single voluntary flown kamikaze mission would be above the Polesti raid - a mission you can only end successful if you die...
  7. Random Pic Time

    Some cartoons from my favourite cartoon-website (I took only the best you can understand without speaking German...): And one with text: "In the last few weeks I was a little bit lazy."
  8. Oh, the flying lighter BTW: "Greif" (griffon) not "Grief" or "Greiff" ;) (Why do english speaking people always write "ie" instead of "ei"??? - "ei" is pronounced "aye" (or the "name" of the character "i"), "ie" like "ee")
  9. I know, the "cheap" way of mapping ... And that's one of the reasons my first model is still far from completion - I have to learn "real" mapping first (the other main problem is a lack in motivation:boredom:)! BTW: It will be a WWII model...
  10. Looks like the mapping on the upper side of the fuselage is heavily distorted... (The mapping, not your skin!)
  11. Yes, "Fliegerhorst" (with "ie") is the correct term (Flugplatz is only used for civil airports)! (btw: "Horst" is - in this case - the german word for nests of birds of prey - especially eagles ["Adlerhorst"]. And it's a name ) And remember: nouns are always written upper case in German!
  12. Projekt koordination fuer die naehere Zukunft!

    Glückwunsch, und alles Gute! ...von nun an wird "Schlaf" für dich nur noch in deiner Erinnerung zu existieren...
  13. OK, Where is the EAW Combat Ace Forum?

    The 24 bit has nothing to do with the 32/62 bit you may know from your OS - it's the bit depth of the used textures - and 24 bit is the most common depth (BMPs are 24 bit!)...
  14. OK, Where is the EAW Combat Ace Forum?

    Does it run on XP? If it does (and supports higher resolutions) I'll go searching for my copy soon (I think it was one of the games I packed away in my cellar just two weeks ago...)!
  15. Careful, as far as I know the number of changes is limited! (Don't know if it is still that way with the modern players, but be careful...)
  16. Select the part(s), export them (not "export" but "export selected") and import them in the other model - now you just have to place it (if it has the same scale - if not - good luck...).
  17. Grandsons first deer

    The thing I never understand is: what's so great killing helpless (and defenseless) animals with a gun? If you would go hunting boars with only a knife, that would be skill (and pretty equal chances...)! But a deer with a gun - that's like shooting cars on the autobahn with a LAW...
  18. That should get interesting... (PropHeads use Gen1 sims on 06 patch level)
  19. Raketenschiene an Weaponstation zufügen?

    Vielleicht ebenfalls hilfreich: http://military-machine.blogspot.com/2008/01/4-publication-hawker-sea-hawk.html (@Martin: Die Seite hat eine Menge interessante Hefte und Bücher!)
  20. Forum suggestions!

    Not sure if this is the right thread, but there is a thing bothering me - the new way showing images! I like to klick at the images with my mouse's middle button to open them in new tabs in the background (so I'm able to read on while the pics are loading), and because they were in their original format my browser could fit bigger images to my resolution (my 'net-rig is an old machine with a smaller monitor). The new "integrated" system makes it impossible - it is even impossible to save posted schematics (like in this post) on the HD...
  21. WHEN WILL IT END!

    As long as they don't have to face the consequences of their decisions (meaning: as long as they don't have to be in the front line with a gun in their hand), it will never change!
  22. I think its is done as a jet with AB from the beginning (to get the fuel consumtion and the nice flame ).
  23. There already is: "Sakeen" (Knife)
