The F-86H Sabre by Mathew Chatham is now relesed. It can be downloaded at AVSIM. Nice add on to the game.

I was reading a thread at Sim HQ about how to change your wingmans skins. I tried it and it works great but you can also designate each wingman with a call sign to have a different plane as well. This is how you do it. -Click on Single Mission -Click on Create Mission -Select your aircraft -Click on loadout -Click on Callsign at the left -Select a different call sign -Select which aircraft and skins you want for each different call sign I have been playing this game since it first came out and did not know this. Its like getting another add on.

I have been playing sims for many a year. I have gone through all of the Janes, Flight Simulators, Red Barons etc. No I have never had the chance to ride in more then a prop plane. I do not know how the fighters should turn ,bank,roll,etc. There are many of you who have had first hand experience while I just pass the odd Wrench. My point is I find the game fun! I did not have to buy a new computer or Video card to make it work. I find the dogfighting and the plane models keeps the fun going. The add ons from people who do not get enough thanks just keep making the game better. The learning curve is a lot easier then Falcon 4. Yes it is missing things such as mission editor, some better scenery and damaged models from targets that have been hit. Keep the mods coming and thank you to the people who put their time in.

How does one go about making their own Hangar Screens? Is it possible for the ordinary Joe to attempt one? Is there any info out in SF land? Thanks in case anybody can help.

Navy Chief -I was just at AVSIM and I tried downloading the file. It worked for me and I am not a member. I went the same way as my last post with no problems.

JEAGER Go to www.avsim.com -Click on file library at the top left -Scroll down until you find Use this box to view all files in a category! -Click on the view category arrow -Scroll down to you find Strike Fighters mods utilities and patches -Click on the change category button -Scroll down to the third one and click on the download button and you should have a Sabre that fires missiles! Sorry I could not provide you with a link Good Luck

Right now they are working on a fix for the problem. I f you notice your wingman keeps bouncing on the runway until they crash. In the easy mode your plane will take off without problems. I think but not sure Digital Overload is working on the fix.

Beautiful Lear Jet Historic Me262 (where would the jet sims be without this plane) Best F-18 Hornet (from the carrier to land bases it does it all)

Would it be possible for one of the many people with talent to make a hanger screen for the B-57b. I do not know how much work is involved but it dosen't hurt to ask.

PERFECT!!!!!!! The speed now that the canopy closes is bang on. Keep up the good work. Thanks again for your time and effort.

WOW!!!!!! Saying THANKS for the mod does not seem enough. You have really added something special to the game. Good work. Can the canopy closing be slowed down at all? Trust me I am not complaing just asking.

Make sure the folder and all the configuration files are all the same. They should say F-89C You have to change one or is it two to match up.

Check this link out by Mitch. http://www.strike-fighters.de/images2/page_01.htm Now this is going to be a great add on.

There is also a Tu-22 bombing mission in the weapon pak files. Hope this helps.

PC Pilot - if you go to Paskos Page in the web links he has a weapons update. In there are some ini files for the Tu-22. You will be able to carry up to 24 smaller bombs. Be careful if you update your weapons data from your original that you do not lose what you have already.

Does anybody like the graphics in the game. The only good part is the damage or the results of sinking a ship or blowing up a building etc..... The best item that keeps me from uninstalling the game is the missions and campaigns. I know you should not compare games such as Strike Fighters or Forgotten Battles with their good points but you would expext more from Microsoft! If you look at other forms and the amount of add ons it seems CFS 3 is dying a slow death.

We all look forward to any new aircraft to add to our forces. Nice start to it and keep up the good work. Any addition to the game can only make it better.

Ranger or should I say JEAGER, Thanks for the three great missions. I have enjoyed them very much. I don't know how much thanks and credit you receive for the time and effort you put in but I for one want to say THANKS!! I think I should be thanking Ranger or is it JEAGER who puts these great missios together...... Oh well job well done.

Wow !!! Such detail. Keep up the good work.

THANKS!!!!! Tiwaz It worked with no problems. It was such an easy solution why did I not think about it . Thanks again. Ranger - nice job on your missions. Any chance of making one with the F-105? It is people like you who put the time and effort into making this game better all the time.

Still no luck, maybe Its me!!! Thanks again

Ranger , I copied pasted and put them in the mission folder but when I started the game the missions did not appear. They are saved as txt files but the other mission files are MSN files. Any ideas . Thanks

Hats off to all the people who put the time into the F-86! What a nice job. I am glad to see I'm not the only one to have trouble getting the drop tanks to appear. I see over at Sim HQ others are having the same problem.

I had the same problem. My solution worked for me If you want to try it. Go to your Flight folder and pull up the Soundlist. My last two sections look like this. [A1Engine] Priority=LOW 3DSound=TRUE DopplerEffect=TRUE Looped=TRUE NumBuffers=2 FrequencyControl=TRUE MaxDist=250.000000 MinDist=50.000000 InsideConeAngle=360 OutsideConeAngle=360 ConeOutsideVolume=0 [PropLoop2] Priority=HIGH 3DSound=TRUE DopplerEffect=TRUE Looped=TRUE NumBuffers=2 FrequencyControl=TRUE MaxDist=1000.000000 MinDist=50.000000 InsideConeAngle=360 OutsideConeAngle=360 ConeOutsideVolume Next copy and paste the PropLoop2 and if you do not have it already the A1Engine sound files into your Sound folder. Now go back to the Soundlist and make sure that the new sound files are found. SoundFile027=A1Engine SoundFile028=PropLoop2 I use the original sound list and add to it everytime myself, that way I know if I screw up where to look. The secert is to make sure each sound file has a number. I used the original sound file from the SkyRaider and not PropLoop1. My solution works with both prop planes with no problems.

Pcpilot is right! There has been lots of hard work by many talented people who deserve many thanks for their hard work. I would not use the word petition but a request to TK. If you could release the editor or help in any way to compliment the work of others. This game is moving in leaps with all the new aircraft and campaigns ready to come out in the future. Any help would go a long way in making this game what we all thought it could be.
