  1. JPEG skins

    still gotta convert the skin and see, gotta love RL. but i have Gimp so not much problem converting. i was wondering for imfo purposes and that info could be useful for those with modding desire but not so much talent. (like i really have any )
  2. JPEG skins

    umm wow. if im understanding that right future skins will be best done in JPEG then? interestin as a look through with the cat extractor has the Phantoms all bmp still, and A-7D. but the naval SLUFs are jpeg. and most of the decals are still tga(at least all 1200 Phantom tail numbers are!) you posted while i was typing the original Dave. soooo why then might my modded skin in .bmp not show in the current stock A-7E which is in JPEG stock? hadd kept the name the same in the texture set at first but changed the name out after patching and noticing this and still no dice.
  3. Holy Frak!

    happy belated birthday sorry i didnt catch this sooner, or i'd have uploaded the "get off the nuclear weapon" clip from Armageddon while i could have!
  4. ya know i was gonna say put a nuke on a Harpoon, but.......
  5. not implausible. Denmark was using it in the late 50's plus at least Turkey and France within NATO. probably would have been less maintenence intensive and more forgiving to fly than the Starfighters they did wind up getting, as well as a capable platform with CBU, rockets and AS30s. since many D's were wired for Bullpup it should have been too hard to rewire for European ASM although radar would have been an issue for all weather missions.
  6. F-4E

    early in the F-4C's 57th service the rudder was the only part with a checkerboard. towards the end before conversion to the E they went ADC grey witha fintip checkerboard. not to mention the bicentennial bird they had. just some variations on the theme to share....
  7. You can't make this kind of s**t up

    makes us look pretty good only hanging the Canadian flag upside down at the World Series. at least we didn't sing about Montreals hookers
  8. so any news now, or has RSR put this on hold? (half joking)
  9. Dont go in the water......

    first Dave give the AI nukes, now this.. http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/sideshow/robot-jellyfish-u-navy-backed-researchers-developing-robojelly-152601359.html
  10. very true. however the pics obviously belong in what if section as the Mig-29 doesn't have the legs to get out to the CVBG, let alone past the local air defenses.
  11. they usually do. takes a while sometimes, esp. depending on how much TK feels like fixin em. eg the white borders on dark thirdparty decals(dissappeared with may11 patch but back with Nov11 or Mar12)
  12. researching Phantoms for my project STORM and yes many squadrons changed carriers up throughout the war. The squadron was actually assigned to the carrier air wing (CVW) not the carrier itself. for skinning you could make year specific skins so the proper carrier is modded.
  13. so what do you guys do while waiting in an airport?
  14. Another F-4 video

    Queen and Phantoms! if not for the scrapped airframes this would be a totally excellnt vid.
  15. and took pat benetar off? stop caving in Dave!
  16. ??? should get everything in the merged install, plus any mods added. only running the patch right now not NA, but my Phantom test install works just fine. try deleting the whole mod folder, run the game once then see how it works.
  17. in one of last years patches TK fixed it so you do not have to instal in order. the exception is the Expansion Packs. You HAVE TO HAVE SF2 Isreal before installing the EXP1, and HAVE TO HAVE SF2Europe before installing EXP2. if you install now all games (SF2, SF2Vietnam, etc) will be to the current March2012 patch level. hope this clears things up for you.
  18. New entrys on SF2 NA

    NF4 Tornadoes and Liberty Wing Vaarks now can fly from England...... at least in AI.
  19. del2

    ol shaky! would you prefer to be the master of MAC or MATS?
  20. like that has ever stopped any of us from speaking still looking good overall. i would defineatly say release. remember though that later J's all had DECM after around '74. @wrench good book though i am also using Grey Ghosts, and SuperCarrier in research for my project.
  21. Tarsiers had a great many schemes and flew the Phantom til 81 or 83. quite sure it would be welcome curious what book did you source out of?
  22. only other thing i can think of is it cause of going from 32bit to 64?
