Good thing for you that she doesn't read the boards, Else ye be sleepin' in the Doghouse... Again...

Well, It beats C-Rations...

Well, resuming my spot near the refreshments table. I've restarted updating the List here Dave...

There are some exceptions. If you transfer the AN-12, C-130, & F-104G to WOV you will need to extract all the files relating to that aircraft with the SFP1E .cat file extractor & include them with the transfer. Same goes for any aircraft using the f-104G cockpit from SFP1. WOV aircraft ( Like the A-6A or B-52D ) will need their files extracted as well if you transfer them to SFP1/SFG...

The site should be back up today. In addition to the US F-14A v1.1, an Iranian Tomcat is also available there as well... EDIT: BTW Hawker, are you the same Hawker who made the EA-6B? If so, wpnssgt at wpnssgt.com would like to get ahold of you concerning updating the EA-6B to Service Pack 3 standards. When C-5's forum gets back up, you can PM wpnssgt there. Thanks...

A lot of the stuff that was here, is also at www.avsim.com/ Including v4.0 & v5.0 of the A-1H. I'll be sad to see BioHaz go, as this place was the strongest supporter of Strike Fighters in the early days. I've noticed that two recent updates that I made to the Filling In The Blanks thread have "disappeared". You can also find this thread mirrored at ThirdWire's Forums, Column5's site, and SimHQ. In time we can only hope that MJ will have the time to restart BioHaz in some new format...

No, the Weapons Editor was written for Windows98. If you're using XP, right click on the Wep Editor icon, select Properties, & then set it up to run in Win98 Compatability mode. You will then see the DOS screen flicker as you start it, after which the Weapons Editor will start...

have they found a Distributer yet?

Not a whole lot happening with Tank Sims now. Steel Beasts 2 is way late. The version used by the Danish Military was released early last year & the developers keep pushing back SB2's commercial release date. I've about given up hope on this one. Steel Beasts 1 doesn't have a campaign included with it. Panzer Elite Gold, if you can find it, is a far better deal...

It should be at http://www.column5.us/aircraft.shtml T-33A is there as well, although if you want to use the real thing, Pasko has released the F-94B for the upcoming campaign...

Definately, Use the Weapons Editor to open the WeaponsData.ini, scroll down to the bottom & check to make sure the added weapons are showing up, then click "Save". Above all else, DO NOT click "Save As". More people have screwed up their weapons that way, and the only cure is a complete re-install of your weapons data & Weaponsdata.ini... Thus speaketh the voice of bitter experience...

WeaponsData.ini goes in Strike Fighters/Objects/Weapons.

Guys, this is one nice terrain. Both Winter & Summer tiles are available. And there's a campaign in the works as well...

MajorLee has done it again. The Himalayas are now available for DL at : http://www.majorleesaerodrome.net/ Fly over Everest, ... but bring your Longjohns... ;)

SimDawg's "Fly All MiGs" mod at http://www.avsim.com/ Marcelo's green tinted F-104 cockpit & instructions at http://www.marcfighters.com/ My "Fly The VPAF" mod here at BioHaz is for WOV only...

In addition to installing Deuces, or FUBAR512's Nuke Effects ( which make changes to the particle system .ini file, you also have to change the bomb entries in the weaponsdata.ini. Here's a list prepared by Gaston of what entries he uses each time a new weapons pack comes out : Gaston's wpnsdata correction to use Deuces Nuke Effrcts: [WeaponData341] TypeName=Mk43 FullName=Mk43 Nuclear Bomb ModelName=Mk43 Mass=1000.000000 Diameter=0.490000 Length=4.000000 AttachmentType=USAF,USN NationName=USAF StartYear=1961 EndYear=1991 Availability=2 BaseQuantity=8 Exported=FALSE ExportStartYear=0 ExportAvailability=0 WeaponDataType=0 RailLaunched=FALSE Retarded=TRUE Streamlined=TRUE FinStabilized=TRUE SpinStabilized=FALSE EffectClassName=NukeBombEffects WarheadType=11 Explosives=1000000000.000000 FusingDistance=0.000000 ClusterBomblets=1 ClusterDispersion=0.000000 GuidanceType=0 Accuracy=0.000000 MaxTurnRate=0.000000 MaxLaunchG=0.000000 LaunchReliability=0.000000 ArmingTime=0.000000 SeekerFOV=0.000000 SeekerTrackRate=0.000000 SeekerRange=0.000000 ReleaseAnimationID=1 ReleaseAnimationTime=2.000000 ReleaseAnimationDelay=0.500000 [WeaponData342] TypeName=B61 FullName=B61 Nuclear Bomb ModelName=B61 Mass=324.799988 Diameter=0.324000 Length=3.602000 AttachmentType=USAF NationName=USAF StartYear=0 EndYear=0 Availability=1 BaseQuantity=10 Exported=FALSE ExportStartYear=0 ExportAvailability=0 WeaponDataType=0 RailLaunched=FALSE Retarded=TRUE Streamlined=TRUE FinStabilized=TRUE SpinStabilized=FALSE EffectClassName=NukeBombEffects WarheadType=11 Explosives=3000000000.000000 FusingDistance=25.000000 ClusterBomblets=1 ClusterDispersion=0.000000 GuidanceType=0 Accuracy=0.000000 MaxTurnRate=0.000000 MaxLaunchG=0.000000 LaunchReliability=0.000000 ArmingTime=0.000000 SeekerFOV=0.000000 SeekerTrackRate=0.000000 SeekerRange=0.000000 ReleaseAnimationID=1 ReleaseAnimationTime=2.000000 ReleaseAnimationDelay=0.250000 [WeaponData343] TypeName=B83 FullName=B83 Tactical Nuke ModelName=MK-83 Mass=1000.000000 Diameter=0.220000 Length=2.300000 AttachmentType=USAF,USN NationName=USAF StartYear=1961 EndYear=1991 Availability=2 BaseQuantity=8 Exported=FALSE ExportStartYear=0 ExportAvailability=0 WeaponDataType=0 RailLaunched=FALSE Retarded=TRUE Streamlined=TRUE FinStabilized=TRUE SpinStabilized=FALSE EffectClassName=NukeBombEffects WarheadType=11 Explosives=30000000.000000 FusingDistance=50.000000 ClusterBomblets=1 ClusterDispersion=0.000000 GuidanceType=0 Accuracy=0.000000 MaxTurnRate=0.000000 MaxLaunchG=0.000000 LaunchReliability=0.000000 ArmingTime=0.000000 SeekerFOV=0.000000 SeekerTrackRate=0.000000 SeekerRange=0.000000 ReleaseAnimationID=1 ReleaseAnimationTime=2.000000 ReleaseAnimationDelay=0.500000 [WeaponData384] TypeName=RDS-4 FullName=RDS-4 30 kT Nuclear Bomb ModelName=RDS-4 Mass=2500.000000 Diameter=0.760000 Length=2.960000 AttachmentType=WP NationName=SOVIET StartYear=0 EndYear=0 Availability=0 BaseQuantity=1 Exported=FALSE ExportStartYear=0 ExportAvailability=0 WeaponDataType=0 RailLaunched=FALSE Retarded=FALSE Streamlined=TRUE FinStabilized=TRUE SpinStabilized=FALSE EffectClassName=NukeBombEffects WarheadType=11 Explosives=1000000000.000000 FusingDistance=500.000000 ClusterBomblets=1 ClusterDispersion=0.000000 GuidanceType=0 Accuracy=0.000000 MaxTurnRate=0.000000 MaxLaunchG=0.000000 LaunchReliability=0.000000 ArmingTime=0.000000 SeekerFOV=0.000000 SeekerTrackRate=0.000000 SeekerRange=0.000000 ReleaseAnimationID=-1 [WeaponData547] TypeName=Mk.12A FullName=Mk.12A Nuclear Bomb Placeholder ModelName=MK-83 Mass=1000.000000 Diameter=0.220000 Length=2.300000 AttachmentType=USAF,USN NationName=USAF StartYear=1953 EndYear=1959 Availability=1 BaseQuantity=8 Exported=FALSE ExportStartYear=0 ExportAvailability=0 WeaponDataType=0 RailLaunched=FALSE Retarded=TRUE Streamlined=TRUE FinStabilized=TRUE SpinStabilized=FALSE EffectClassName=NukeBombEffects WarheadType=11 Explosives=30000000.000000 FusingDistance=50.000000 ClusterBomblets=1 ClusterDispersion=0.000000 GuidanceType=0 Accuracy=0.000000 MaxTurnRate=0.000000 MaxLaunchG=0.000000 LaunchReliability=0.000000 ArmingTime=0.000000 SeekerFOV=0.000000 SeekerTrackRate=0.000000 SeekerRange=0.000000 ReleaseAnimationID=1 ReleaseAnimationTime=2.000000 ReleaseAnimationDelay=0.500000

I think mine is one of sorry horror stories about getting the retail version to work. Spent 5 hours fighting steam to get to the "Too Busy To Process You Registration" screen, then about 30 minutes into the game, suffered a 30 second power outage and found on bootup that the game wouldn't run in offline mode until my registration had been completed. 14 hours later, finally got my registration approved. Game is great, but I strongly doubt that I'll buy another Valve game anytime soon, if they continue to use steam...
