I used this fix for the radar screen a few months back, and it's easily the best improvement to the game that I've seen.....I hated that screen! There is also an assignment to change the hud display from within the game, I can't remember the default key combinaton (I have it remapped) but it allows you to cycle through easy/normal/hard while you are in the air.

I like the idea of removing the shaded background on the text, thanks Wrench, I look forward to giving that a try.

I see a few canadian military aircraft on their site, however the CF-105 doesnt appear to be one of them

Does anyone know if there is a CF-105 Avro Arrow available?

Cheers

That is exactly what I needed

thank you for the response, am I correct to assume F6 was the default external veiw? what is this veiw called in the customise controls menu within the game? If when I get home and check the file your telling me to check and it doesnt have this line then what should I do? do I add the line? or should I restore the defaults and do the remap? sorry for all the questions I just want to be ready with a plan when I sit down to do it.

I fly pretty much exclusively from the cockpit, however I would like to be able to go to an external veiw and pan around from time to time. I have remapped my whole keyboard to get it to fit my liking and now I'll be buggered if I can get an external (free panning) veiw, can anyone tell me what I'm missing?

I'd like to see a little bit better navigation avionics, like using carots(sp?) in the heading ribbon on the hud of the aircraft to locate waypoints, or when you cycle through radar options, one option should be a moving map(GPS)with waypoints (a la nav mode in LOMAC) I dont really like those triangles floating around in space.

The other big(HUGE) miss is an ILS

So I wanted to show off this new tow that I just finished making. It's made with an old keyboard inside. It makes radar and targeting much easier........and funner!

And when I'm done flying it just unplugs and goes into the closet

Thanks for the ideas guys, I have to say that the shining star of the bunch is the superhornet that warlord gave a link to one question though......this is the second F18 that I have downloaded for this game and neither has had flaps, isnt an F18 supposed to have flaps?

with so many downloads out there one cant expect to try ALL of them, surely sharing some of your favourites wont hurt anyone, I'm not asking for the worst downloads to stay away from them, I'm asking for your opinions on the best to share!!

One of my favourites is the Mirage factory F-15, and I recently got an F-23 that seemed pretty cool, as for scenery I got the Black Sea Campaign and thinks it's great. I also recently got a fix to remove the radar screen from my top right veiw(huge improvement)

So I'm sure this topic must have come up before........But, I'm looking for peoples opinions about the best downloads to get.

-best modern plane

-best cold war era plane

-best WW2 plane

-best scenery/campaign package

-best utility/upgrade/tweak etc. etc.

Great!!! I cant wait to get that working.....Hope it doesnt still say "COOOWBOOOY OOONNNE, YOUR LEAVING MY AIRSPACE!!!!!"

Thanks Jayo, does it make the radio stuff any better? cause I have to say it's an element of the game that really could use a little/alot of help

So I heard about this COMM pack, apparently it's one of the best things to get for the game?? I found it and downloaded it ........now what does it do? and where do I put it? there seems to be no instructions or info available

Thank you ezlead that is exactly what I was looking for.

Is there a way to get rid of the radar screen in the top corner of the screen, I know I can cycle the heads-up display and it goes away but there are alot of other visual clues that go away with it that I would like to keep. When I want to look at the radar I can look down at the panel, I dont want it taking up valuable realistate on my main screen!!

Thanks

Rom

I did, what I was hoping to find out was do any of them work in WOE as opposed to WOI,WOV, or SFP1? They all seem to SFP but will they work in WOE?

I am using WOE and I keep hearing about mission editor programs and I would like to use one. Can anyone point me in the right direction to get a good one for WOE.

Thanks

Rom

it is in the pull down menu in single mission default is Germany but you should be able to choose the terrain you just

downloaded make sure you read the read me file that comes with the download

I expected it to be an option in the drop down menu instead of germany too this file comes as a auto-installer and there does not appear to be a read-me, even in the file that was created in the main directory for the game called 'black sea'' has no read-me

So I went and got it, loaded it, and all was smooth and good. opened up the game and...........where is it? how do I get to this scenery?

downloading as I write

Cheers

Thanks for the amazingly quick response where do I go to get it?

I'm currently using WOE and am enjoying it immensely, however I would really enjoy some mountains and canyons and places to have a little fun. Does WOE reach down into the Alps? or is there any scenery additions I could acquire to get something a little more exciting than the pancake known as Germany(Duetchland)??

Thanks for the responses. To bad about the lack of ILS (instrument landing system)

Hello

I am new to this forum but I'm a long time sim addict. I'm impressed with my copy of WOE.

Is there a way to get any sort of ILS in the sim.

I read about someone monitering there FPS....how?

Cheers
