thank you . it is working

Thank you MR Eric seems my account has been promoted to "HAT in the ring " automatically + my rank is rookie (account was created in 2008 ) but 1 free download is not working "user type is not authorized to download file " will i have to wait for 30 days ?

what is required to be airman basic ? also what is "doxxing "

first of all thank you to you(Mr Eric ) and all the others in trying to keep this classic sim alive , and in thinking of people like us who cannot afford paid subscriptions also thank you for replying to my queries on the forums but it seems that my account is unable to access any download ( 1 free download per day ) have a account in combat ace since 2008 , recently i have been active in the forums as well just re logged in as suggested in the forums , but still no luck.... my

Well yes thank you Mr Wrench thing is , there is scope for a new/improved Ind pak terrain ... also a decent SU 30 mki with BRahmos missile ? given the current situation , there is likely to be further action in this area

i am not a pilot , but what i understand about about flight mechanics , sf2 has a very good flight model for a lite flight sim a pity the avionics modelling was not developed further even a sim/game like the novalogic f 16 (1998 ), has more depth in some areas in this respect but sf2 series has far better flight model/enemy AI than the nova logic games i did simulate some engagements like mig 25 vs f 4 in SF2 series using mission editor the outcome was very similar to the ones in the you tube channels using dcs so the basic game had so much potential a pity it was not developed further yes the modders are incredible some of the new terrains are fantastic /default sf series terrain is very weak .

yes , i know ... i do not have access to DCS !!! , LOMAC flaming cliffs 2 is the best i have got , falcon bms is not user friendly /over complicated sf2 is ideal for air combat up to early gen 4 (f 15 a, su 27b , mig 29 a, f14a ) 80 s era late cold war (HMD still not there , though ) !

did set up the real life India v Pakistan air battle this year (as much is possible ) i am from India and was completely aghast at the crazy hyperbole /mis information war in that a short war over Kashmir this year i modeled the engagement in the mission editor pakistan (20+ jf 17 ,10 j 10 c )_ versus ( 3 rafale , 18 su 30 ,6 mirage 2000 ) of the IAF , under cover of darkness Pakistan took more losses but the IAF Rafales got shot down.. since ARH Chinese pl 12 -pl 15 missiles could not be detected by the Rafales which i was flying (did this happen in real life ? ) in reality ARH seeker heads activate 10-15 km , so 10-15 secs time should be there to evade /deploy CM s

thank you

rwrs dont seem to give any warning of r 77s and aim 120 s (fired in TWS scan mode ) making them very difficult to evade

one file per day was more than enough what a shame... really do not know what to say

is it possible to increase radar track range in mods/ rafale . su 35 radar seems to be too weak

there is a WW1 mod in il2 1946 could not get any il2 1946 mod running so far sf2/fe2 mods are easier to install yes ww1 planes are so much fun to fly slow . but low wing loading means they can turn on a dime , and slow fights up close and personal the se5 (in FE2 ) , is my favorite modern air combat is all about stealth/sensors/missile performance there is a very good channel on y tube Gregs airplanes that has started discussing ww1 aviation ./fighter design .recently . perhaps one day they will have a battle of Jutland sim....

thank you for the information wonderful to converse with people interested in sims/flight sim in general, il2 1946 and fS9 /FSX (esp fs9 modded ) is also a huge favorite of mine not many sim fanatics here in India at present (gaming is becoming a huge craze , off course , but shooters , maybe GTA , NFS ) had an account for more than 15 years , now this 2025 new year present from combat ace(no more free downloads.... ) i did give suggestions Eric & co kindly replied that there are no easy solutions , all these scam sters with multiple accounts one fellow was found with 44 accounts !!! the fs9/fsx sites seem to be operating ok one modder from the UK (mr Howard ) even sent me a custom texture pack for FS9 that he had developed ...in 2021 the amount of flyable aircraft for fs9 is astounding (unlikely to be ever matched i think, even though some of the mods are very basic ) the FS9 sopwith camel/SE 5 was one my favorite free mods ( from ALPHASIM probably ) i will of course note down the info/links that you have given , if some time in the future they again resume downloads at present the only place probably for free sf2 downloads is the GKABS website (his models are fantastic , SU 35, rafale , typhoon , but the F models are somewhat overpowered , they can make 20 g turns !!!! at low/mid altitude if the FM S are corrected then it will be fantastic , the SU 35 model is amazing ) the A team site( SF 2mods ) is also apparently not working they sent me login/passed but unable to logon will be happy to discuss any simulators/simulator mods that i know of (FS9, FSX , il2 1946, sf2 , fe 2 ) , or any other like naval sims like (dang waters , cold waters, silent hunter that i have )

first eagles 2 game play is as good as any from any tw sim that i have played .

as a fan from India have been on combat ace for more than 15 years faced no problems before this ... it is these mods that have made a decent lite flight sim special for people like us it is not possible to pay/subscribe will be deeply saddened if the free option is completely withdrawn but then thanks for all these years of fun , esp for some of the fantastic mods/modders out there .

perhaps the cap on downloads could be increased to 1-2 per day .
