Didnt suggetst this to ppl in the past only cause its something ive never tried, (as i have never had the need) and am hesitant to recommend something im not fully familiar with. PortForward.com (very very reputable site), has a port checker utility. Looked at the page, and its simple to run, and gives difinitive results. Would suggest those that appear to have the router set up right, but still cant get ppl to join, to install, and run it. If anything, it will let us know that it is or is not a router issue,,and the problem lies elsewhere.. http://www.portforward.com/help/portcheck.htm ports to check are 2300, 28883, 28884, 28885, 28886, 28887 all in udp if you dont remeber your internal ip, you will have to go back to your command promt and run ipconfig. it will be something in this format. 192.168.x.x

HEY!!!,,,,,,i cry every time they shoot down poor kong.... shoot the bitch..

Wow..that was prety good uk.... When i got fsx, i was running a 450mhz dell,,,and was pretty dissapointed in the graphics....that water looks outstanding..... going to assume you are splicing clips? If so what are you using? If its movie maker,,,,might want to see a tuturial on it...(you saw how bad my mvr clip was) and fyi,,to embed a clip,,,the syntax is (media)enter the entire url of the clip here,,inlcuding http(/media) replace () with []

File Name: Beach Assault at Dawn File Submitter: sitting_duck File Submitted: 27 Nov 2009 File Updated: 29 Nov 2009 File Category: Maps, Missions, and Campaigns This is a corrected version. In orignal mission, the ammo dump was not a goal object. In v2 it is, and will show inflicted damage. We are providing air and bomber support for an amphibious assault of a fortified beach head. Take control of an Se5a Viper, and help soften up the beach head for the landing party, then search out the ammo dump that supplies the bunkers along the coast and givem hell! Bristols are for support only, they do have cockpits, but limited waypoints. Download file to seperate folder. Run installer. Please look at readme. Click here to download this file

immediatly after you hit realease,,,hit f9..... but is not a "camera view" as you might expect,,,its pretty much the same type of view if you target,,and scroll thru the f4... but its still pretty neat

nope,,it has nothing to do the game,,its just for looking at skins when you are not playing....

File Name: A Bridge Too Far.rar File Submitter: sitting_duck File Submitted: 20 Nov 2009 File Category: Maps, Missions, and Campaigns We have succeded in destroying almost all the heavy bridges, and slowed the enemy advance, but at a very heavy cost, but there is one more bridge large enough for the enemy to move equipment necessary for it to substain an offense. Amongst heavy debate, HeadQuarters has decided to take a gamble, and attempt an attack at this last bridge. Resouces are slim, but considering the stratigic importance of this target, we have pooled an impressive force. The bridge MUST be destroyed. Escort the bombers, and DO NOT leave them unattended Notes: The Bristols are considered "props" in this mission. They are there to give you something to Escort, and do have the function of bombing the bridge. I could not find a way to slow them down in mission builder, so to get them to fly in a manner that the escort fighters did not fall far behind, I gave the bombers "zig-zag" waypoints. The Bombers with an "*" next to them when you are selecting your planes in the mission are flyable, if you want to selct a bomber. To keep the size of the mission down, none of the axis planes are flyable. All of the Se5a's have cockpits, and are flyable. Click here to download this file

yeah,,,im gonna make sure im on "unlimited ammo" if i ever get into the air with her...... oh,,yeah,,and "pilot never dies" too

am sure you will get alot of different answers.... as i understand it,,,off is neither sli nor crossfire enabled.. now not saying there is no performance benifit from dual cards...but dont see it being as great as a game that can take full advantage of dual cards. BUT,,,it would foolish to build a computer just around off3...as god knows what the requirements will be for off4,,off5 etc etc... if your thinking about the dual gpu cards...look into the stuttereing problems they have had in the past with 2 dual gpu cards and once you get past the headaches,,and in some instances...heartaches...think about building your own...its very fullfilling my brother paid 4500 (yep...4500) for his gaming rig from dell...i built mine for 1300...he has i7,,i have e8500,,,he has two 9800's in sli,,i have a single 8750...but thats a BIG price difference...

well..i am realy fond of my "how to play off without your wife knowing",,,but im going to keep that to myself... and sorry,,didnt know the m3dview wasnt kinda common knowlege..just threw it out there for new pilots... but,,as im sure there are other "paramaters", or whatever they are called that you can add....i know the -window is another one (or is it windowed?)..... anyone knowing any more..let us know....

Very Cool!!

There is also a great way of looking at the planes in your aircraft directory.... Make a shortcut to cfs3.exe on your desktop, select properties, and add a -m3dview to the target Now start cfs3 from the shortcut, you will get 2 windows. One will be a smaller command window, and the other will be the viewing window...attention at first is on the command window... Be sure to go back and remove the -m3dview from the target when done!!

as this is freeware..... http://bhah.homeip.net:192/pub/ddsview0663a.zip

if you post a day/time,,i can try and get on.....might be able to do a little bit in the afternoon friday, but got the "other" inlaws to go to friday nite

now all we have to do is figure out where that stupid plane resides..and change it.

this might have to be done for all the periods in cfsww1 scenery the map getting displayed is based on the period...switch periods..and the game loads a new map... I tried out the map that wakdamar put up the other day, and it worked..it worked in the game,,it worked in mp. then i happened to change the overide date for a mission i was building (wanted to get the sun on the horizon furhter south,,,it didn work).. anyways,,the map reverted back to a stock map cause the game pulled a new map from the new period i had selected..

am always forgetting to start up tso...never fails..... this page has a quick way to make one shortcut to start up both tso and ts at the same time.. http://www.solidblogger.com/create-single-shortcut-to-launch-multiple-programs-on-your-computer/ when you save the txt files as a bat file..you HAVE to save it to the tso folder..or you get a dll error mssage... once you have the bat file in the tso folder, you can make a shortcut for it to the desktop, and rename it. if you click on the shortcut, and select properties..you can change the icon,,,if you browse to the ts directory, and click on the tso.exe,,your shortcut to the bat file will have the same icon as ts did...

seems like if you pick an over ride date,,it takes the alt_low map from your ww1 scenery and over writes the one in your uries folder....ie,,the one in uries is semi temporary,,it gets changed as you move from period to period

barring any unforseen problems, will try and have something up tues around 730 edt pd has 2 new missions up, so would like to try and give them a go. will try and remeber to post here when am online.

guess too many guys at my suppliers called in sick,,,,so im not getting my delivery...and am out of too much stuff to work... will be on teamspeak around 5ish edt,,,if anyone wants to do anything ....
