  1. Actually it does for most things. And physics can be off loaded to the video card. The SF engine is several years old so it doesn't take advantage of many things that have come along since then. And even then when SF is cpu heavy most of us are running Core2duo's. They are several magnitudes more powerful then what was around when SF was first released.
  2. The techno babble didn't get me. This time it was a stupid mistake. the ins and outs of the game's file structure is still foreign to me. I feel more at home in Eclipse or Visual studio than a notepad document but it all comes in time.
  3. I have airfields, I lack runways. I'll check the readme. I didn't think i had to do much though most terrains you just drop in and play. EDIT: Ok, I found that the .ini was pointing towards the GermanyCE.cat and not the VeitnamSEA.cat. Thanks for the help.
  4. Sounds like outdated engine coding to me. I can play Crysis warhead on medium setting with my 4850 at my resolution and get a higher average fps than in WoV. And Crysis is a far more complex game. I hope SF2 is better about this.
  5. I took her up earlier today against some Mig-25s. She is a joy to fly and is a straight shooter.
  6. This? http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autoc...p;showfile=7684 EDIT: looks like you beat me too it! Thanks.
  7. I have two issues with the AmericaNW terrain. The first is that the airfields have no runways. The AI and when I'm on auto pilot end up landing by going full throttle into the Radar tower, knock the wings off and stop. The second problem is I cant seem to figure out how to switch between seasons. Every mission I have flown has so far been in the winter. I am using WoV Oct '08 patch and I have the newest AmericaNW installed.
  8. Where is the dbs mod? I have searched and I cant find it.
  9. ^ So you are advocating dive bombing? As out dated as it is, the Wo* games tend to make that the easiest way to deliver bombs. For me its either dive bomb or low and fast pass. And I risk blowing my own tail off then.
  10. JASDF F-4EJ Kai's over Iraq. It's actually An F-4E AUP with the JASDF 502sqdn skin. That mission I downed 3 Su-27's and 2 Mig-25s.
  11. And here I thought laser cat was a tomcat with laser guided bomb capability.......
  12. On a related note. My Mirage F1's have open canopies in flight. I found the entry in the data.ini [Canopy] SystemType=HIGHLIFT_DEVICE DeploymentMethod=AUTOMATIC_SPEED Setting[1].Angle=45.0 Setting[1].DeployValue=4.0 Setting[1].RetractValue=1.5 MaxDeflection=45.0 MinDeflection=0.0 ControlRate=0.2 ModelNodeName=Canopy ReverseModelOrientation=TRUE What exactly should I change?
  13. I've seen the internal beta of Windows 7. I know a guy who is an M$ beta tester. It looks just like Vista visually but is a lot faster. They shouldn't have the speed issues that existed with Vista at launch.
  14. I'm not bashing the new ones, I love the F-15 and the F-14. I'm just saying I think its cool to think about what could have happened to the F-4. it just goes to show how upgradable it is. That The Greeks and Germans have F-4s with modern features.
  15. With upgrades like that why have an F-15? I know there were many upgraded variants in the works that got shot down in the 80's and 90's because it would hurt defense contractor sales. But it's still interesting to think that they would be like if they had gone ahead with it. F-4's with AIM-9x capability and glass pits. That would rock.
  16. Why can't we have radars in game that can track and fire on multiple targets simultaneously? I know the F-14 can track something like 7 while engaging an 8th and I'm sure the F-15, F-16, F-22, F-18, and the F-35 can do similar things.
  17. Speaking of new Phantom models wouldn't it be cool if someone made one of the upgraded foreign phantoms with AMRAAM capability?
  18. I think those tests were more about ensuring the parachutes worked. Not actual combat approaches. Notice how the cameraman focused on the parachutes opening fully before they switched to watching the bomb itself .I would imagine they would fly much higher if they were dropping the real thing.
  19. Yeah I set up a mission with F4B's last night and got the same thing. I think its because the weapons pack lists the fuel probe as a gunpod so it chooses it over the SU/U-16.
  20. So how successful were the Navy Phantoms? It goes without saying that the sidewinders and sparrows were not that effective yet.
  21. Do any Navy F-4's have a built in gun?
  22. My only problem with the A-7 is it does a bad job of staying alive. What is the point of moving dirt if your dirt movers die before they get there? The A-4 is able to save it's own tail most of the time. And not many targets require more than three or four bombs anyways. And if it does, that's what flights of multiple aircraft are for.
