  1. i pull up another image with the color i want and use the eyedropper to copy the color. if you click the square showing the color in use you can tweak it a bit with an editor that comes up. as for just creating a color i am not so sure but those are the methods i myself use
  2. who said it was a typo?
  3. its a mode of transportation with wings and some engines but thats not important now...............
  4. i go away for two weeks and a new patch comes out. i guess SF Tomcat will come out during the deployment next year!

  5. ok so heres my stats....Compaq Presario C700 laptop, stock graphics card, Pentium Dual core, Vista Svc Pack 1, usually get 8-15 fps on me graphics and 30-45 game depending on aircraft, mission, where i am etc. i am 98.5 percent done with a mod i've been working on for the last few years and did ALOT of work on in the evenings during annual training in texas these last two weeks. it involves decals for every USAF Phantom user and even changes up the stock SEA skins to allow the decals. However to make it work i have my own squadronlist.ini with all the Phantom units in it. question 1 IS the squadronlist.ini any different? (are there new units even amongst the French or Isrealis that you havent noticed before?) question 2 Is this patch worth it at this time? or should i wait a bit until the new cat extractor? (god bless the old one, wouldnt have been able to add the Texas Reserve Squadrons while in El Paso with out it)
  6. what no Hot Shots? that movie is winning! seriously though if we're including DVD sets gotta find me a copy of old Baa Baa Black Sheep. Otherwise I'll agree with Memphis Belle and maybe By Dawns Early Light.
  7. i'll ignore the weekend there and like how its lookin wednesday!
  8. from what i understand it will likely be there a long time. look at 80 yo guys who set off metal detectors with shrapnel in them. and the John Connelly (Gov of Texas when Kennedy was killed) only had the bullets lodged in him in 1963 come out after his death a few years ago. Good to hear your still alive after such an accident. However no lottery tickets for you, you've used up your luck bud!
  9. if they are correct about him being the last, World War 1, the Great War is finally over. RIP brothers.
  10. is it bad when the MWR building next to where your staying starts calling you Norm?

  11. for the same reason tim "the tool man" taylor needed to put a jet engine on a lawn mower
  12. outstanding Kevin. just historical admin notes... 43 Sqn and 111 Sqn used the FG1 in the RAF. they also recieved the RWR box and in fact by the mid 80s the only real way to tell FG1 and FGR2 apart was the "traffic lights" on the nose gear door and the serial number. Barley Grey came in at around the same time as the Marconi RWR so that skin maybe historical may not be. I havent seen any photos myself. still good work!
  13. prob wont watch it but only cause i'll be on my way to my two week training. we Yanks spent all that time breaking free from the Crown just to be fascinated by it centuries later. besides pricess Kate looks to be a cutie esp with the British taxpayer buyin her wardrobe!
  14. umm in theory the same as adding friendly aircraft. however it may take more than just that given the confusion it could create. i believe Suhsjake was working on a Red flyable campaign for the NF series sometime back. he may be a good one to ask if hes still active. otherwise look in the Knowledge Base the is a thread on adding aircraft to a campaign and give that a try. hope this helps
  15. D model tooo! I will try to upload some pics of F-47s in USAFE circa 1948-1949 if you are doing a bubbletop as well! will take me a moment as my internet connection is every other day at free wifi spots but it would be sweet!
  16. nice Eric and belated welcome back!
  17. hats off to those that go and tell the story as it is, not just make a name for themselves. he seemed to be a trooper, working to get the word out.
  18. 2048 skins? you related to Sundowner? i enjoy the detail but always hafta scale down to 1024 on my little compaq laptop
  19. gotta semi bow out for now guys and gals. losin internet at the house for next couple of months and only able to pop in every couple of days at McDonalds(god bless free wifi) that Plus my two week training at the end of this month seem to conspire against me for now.

      @ migbuster yeah it hits right when my inlaws are visiting so i wont piss off my wife as much lol @ Dave not completely gone just not the daily posting champ for a couple of months. gonna be a b**** when mods come out as McD's wifi is slow for downloading :(

  20. yes on the USAF considering the Tom, as they were forced to by Congress. but buzz numbers were done by that point in time. as to the Tomcat in AF plummage, i made a model when i was in Kosovo of a Tomcat in Illinois ANG markings(my home state) with Phoenixes mounted. Painted similar to the F-16 ADF. so i fully agree with it. as to the Illinois ANG, something to consider Mr Spinners see how i get all nice when i would like something?
  21. if i remember right there was some talk by a senator of giving Iran's undelivered Tomcats to the guard in just such a capacity. of course they went to the Navy instead. sourse would have been a better home for the old warbirds than AMARC me thinks...........
  22. i completely understand bro. good luck on job hunting and keep the faith, something will pop up your way eventually.
  23. really not to mention that the 'winder seeker head is still considered ordinance and a big no-no to sell. even a early generation detection system, going the other route, would still kinda piss off the Navy if they found out it was being sold. my take away, this show and these people are NOT near any bases as they clearly do not know how to sell military items! :lol:
  24. ok maybe i read a bit too much into your post. i have seen several threads locked up lately (KAW, Buccaneer) due to constant questions about the status of them. i apologize fer snapping at you. shouldn't post when R/L has me grumpy anyhow. @ wrench thankyou for the updates. kinda figured OTC was close with all the screenies you've been posting and thats the first i've heard on KAW since Dave said stop askin!
