and now its not, and SF2 has reached its ascendancy congrats to @Wataru Matsunaga for posting #5655. 10000 points from the front desk, it'll be up to the admins to get you on stage for Irish Drinking Songs to close out the night

its a legit concern, but probably one thats not too well known outside of Spain alot of the western av enthusiasts liked the sound of Rata better , plus the flying restorations came about at or shortly after the end of the Cold War. not to popular to use the name of your former enemies capital i guess. but i do remember multiple magazine articles in the 90s and all referred to it as Rata

that will tie them.......

Thats how many downloads are available in the Thirdwire download section for SF2 mods. Two more, and it will surpass the SF1 Mod section. just thought i'd point this out. @Wrench @Flanker562 @Erik @Stratos, dont know if you plan on anything for it or if you plan of mentioning it. but the time is here 10000 points to whoever posts it of course

Getting Free downloads on site.
daddyairplanes replied to Huntc63's topic in Site Support / Bug Reports / Suggestions
was this not explained to you when you signed up for the site? was there some stuff that you were supposed to read, and perhaps forgot to? i mean you did post twice, making me think you have an inkling of how this works. could you not have made your second post more interesting and less cliche? -
Planes not showing at short range
daddyairplanes replied to JamesWilson's topic in General Discussion
im glad that you got it to work, and that you are working the issues yourself that said, keep in mind what other Kevin said: the two games dont really compare beyond the fact they are both flight sims DCS is a Formula 1 Ferrari, the high end of performance but most every modification is expensive as hell SF2 is a mid 90s Supra. still alot of fun, and tons of ways to cheaply aftermarket boost it up. -
theres a few out there. for campaigns and flying, go for Green Hell, or the YAP-RW mod offsite for terrain, get Sundowners recent South East Asia personally i would love to see a Balkans campaign pop up (as many of us would). but we'll need the perfect storm of time, interest, and modder availablity that we had with ODS30AE thats the beauty. theres enough lego bricks in the mods to build your own world
-
big thanks to you sir. you've both been an inspiration over the years and a joy to work with. to paraphrase Basher in Oceans 11, "its nice to work with proper villians.." and i think most of us modders do 90% of what we do for ourselves and our interests at the moment. but seeing everyone else enjoy the work (and collaborating on projects with others) does make it worth sharing with the world
-
i think that is a good decision. i dont think too many people will be doing a 2027 or later campaign here, best would be a cold war defend the country set or ANG training set speaking of, are you including Hardwood a2g weapons range? its located next to Finely Wisconsin, about 20 miles northeast of Volk Field. could be a great spot to set up a full OPFOR site

to elaborate (since most dont follow the link Flanker posts) you can post twice, wait 14 days after joining then log out and log in and be able to get 2 free downloads per day or you can pay a subscription, get unlimited downloads during your subscription period. money talks after all, and helps pay the bills 'round here

Thinking about a Gaming PC, need advice.
daddyairplanes replied to malibu43's topic in Hardware/Software Chat
my couple of pennies I have been rocking Xidax systems since before they plastered the annoying ads all over socials (2015). they can be pricey, but are well worth it im rocking a X6 with an i9-14900 processor, 5080 card (didnt want to wait 3 months for a 5090) and 128 GB of RAM. 4TB storage across 2 ssd and one hard drive. RAn about 4100, but i did get it right after a hefty VA backpay check last year so.... opposite end of price spectrum i just got my wife an X2, AMD Ryzen 5 processor, Nvidia 3050 card, 16 GB RAM and 2 TB storage. was 1400 but got knocked down too a grand trading in the hand me down X6 from 2019. they do take payments thru Affirm also. i got a laptop to do school work on when i figured out my system was a little too overpowered and would crash unreal or even the whole system when i ran projects on the school comp's -

Limit single mission years for an SF2 install
daddyairplanes replied to malibu43's topic in General Discussion
now now, dont judge him for only 4 terrains. my vietnam install only has two, north and south vietnam the shortest of my 15 installs you do at least have a dozen installs, right malibu? -
Limit single mission years for an SF2 install
daddyairplanes replied to malibu43's topic in General Discussion
the end year there affects aircraft iirc and stock terrains that dont normally have inis in the public you do need to adjust the terrains for each install as well, or they can shoot past your main limit -

depends what do you like? with over 5000 mods for SF2 alone (and probably around 1000 for SF1 that never got converted) you'll need to specify what youre looking for

a million profuse apologies to angelP, if they would just bring back what we were working on a few years back i think i might have QA'd/nitpicked the model abit much at the time. both angelP disappeared for a couple years, and they havent talked to me since. despite your rant about it being useless, you know you'd jump all over a U-2R if we got one in house
