So it turns out my F-14D came with an alternate cockpit. I tried it. These are my results. So now I have a working reticule, but its seems really anachronistic and its hard to see. Also, it doesn't change with the weapons. Its the same gun sight no matter what I am using.

This is on an F-14D. Could that be part of the problem?

Lifting bodies aren't very stable, so I doubt they would make good fighters. Also the x-24 was rocket powered so its radius was limited to something like 50 miles. You would have to make major modifications to make it practical. And I don't mean strapping sidewinders on it :P

Not that I know of. Nothing F-14 specific at least. What I would like to know is why the HUD hasn't changed. I completely replaced the cockpit files and the hud was in there. But it is still different.

still doesn't work.

I overwrote the cockpit folder with the new one and it was already set to avionics70.dll.

That is the update that I used to begin with. I still have the problem after applying it. Could it be that the hub lacks the .tga for reticules? I'm assuming they are just .tga's that are moved about the screen.

That looks extremely useful. I would just like to know how to use it. If used right I'm assuming it would make things like MiG-23's locking on to a F-22 with radar a little harder, and F-14's tracking targets BVR much easier.

I increased some of the detect values on my F-14 and I was able to shoot down a MiG-31 at 40nm.

I have the same issue. The radar wont target aircraft that are further than 8nm. Its kinda funny. My asraam is effective before my amraam because of this.

So if they were advanced trainers then what is their reason for existence? The T-38 came first. It seems a little redundant to me.

It seems I stand corrected. I just didn't know much about the F-5. So why does such a small aircraft have a two seat combat variant? Do they really need a weapons officer?

At first I thought it wasn't a issue with the avionics.dll. So I found a replacement dll in the downloads section. It didn't fix anything, but then again it didn't make things worse either. This is the only bird that does it, although I have some other issues, like some of my fishbed's not applying their skins, and add on maps not working right etc. I guess I will just wait this one out. Other than the hud they are pretty good though. I just took on a flight of foxbats and fulcrums and owned them.

I got to see #2 last weekend. She is an odd bird. I can see why they called her the man eater.

I thought F-5s were one seat and T-38s were 2 seat. How can you have a 2 seat F-5?

So is the OP going to post a pic?

I didn't think there was such thing as a Mig-24. Aren't Migs odd numbers only?

I just installed the MB-339 into WOV. The plane works great but I cant get the gunpod and the fuel tanks to work. I follow the directions and added the lines to my weapon data file but they don't show up. What am I doing wrong? The plane in question can be found here: http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autoc...p;showfile=7508

Couldn't get 30k. No matter how hard I pulled the nose went down.

Couldn't quite get to 30k meters. Does anyone else notice the overwhelming force to put the nose down? Even at high speeds. I pulled all the way back on the stick and the nose still dropped.

It flickers. Very distracting and detracts a lot form what is otherwise a pretty beautiful game. Also when I was doing some strike missions I noticed a similar effect happening on some buildings. I added the Green hell and the Vietnam SEA repaint, and I had hoped it would fix the problem. I am running an ATI HD4850. Frame rates are great maxed out. But I would expect so. it's one of the faster cards on the market.

Yeah I copied the folders into the weapons folder.

ok so in an effort to give this plane guns of some kind I am trying to get it to use the SU-23 gunpod. Can anyone tell me what weapon class a gunpod is so I can let the pylons hold it?

Anyone?

Looks like it makes heavy use of 1st generation stealth like in the F-117. Look at all the sawtooth lines on it. That can't be a new Design.
