hey,,,colts are on tonight,,,, but,,,ill try and be there,,,,,,,

whew... these are all just guesses... not up on sli,,but is that something you have to enable in bios,,,or in os? and if so,,,(assuming you just got one card) did you disable it..(off is not sli enabled,,,maybe your other games are)... deleting your usiel.xml somethims solves some pretty quirky problems,,,,dont think its going to solve this one,,,but it wouldnt hurt. Game just rebuilds the file when it doesnt find one.. anything outta the ordinary about your system? seem to remeber some problems in the past that where prtty strange,,then come to find out they had 2 monitors,,,,and beive camel jocky had 2 sound cards that resulted in a problem..

hey,,,i have the saphire 4870....I went all the way back to 9.5 (the ones on the cd that came with the card)... and ill tell you,,,that solved ALOT of problems i was having... will NEVER update.....lol

It was deffinatly a slaughter,,,but it was still fun.....

strange problem to say the least.... when you are at the wwi initialising screen, that is when cfs3.exe is being started up from by off manager... if you get a chance,,,look for your cfs3.exe in your obd\cfs3ww1 off directory, and start the game from there, bypassing the off manager,,,curiouse to see if you get the same problem.

Occaisionally have to add a file to "my attachments" to put into a post for someone. Then someone else needs the same file, but rather than dig thru for the old thead with the attatchment, i would like to be able to just insert the file that I have already uploaded into another post. But cant figure out how to do that..

yep,,,i knew i was missing something,,, in my case, its right clicking on number 2,,, and selecting copy shortcut,,, http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?app=core&module=attach&section=attach&attach_rel_module=post&attach_id=33867 lol..thanks for sticking with me on this one...

good to hear..... (lol,,and i just told someone else their problem wasnt the drivers....) curious...what card,,,and going to assume you got the latest ccc drivers.......what version did you roll back to that got it to work?

curious,,,what is your desktop resolution,,,,and what do you have the game set to run at? and,,its not the card,,,,and doubt that its the drivers,,,,,,,ive seen this game run bad on some drivers, but never seen it not run at all...

lol...ok,,,at the risk of beating this poor topic to death.... lets say a month ago someone posted in the forum they wanted the gotha,,,so i compressed my gotha folder,,,respnded to the post that here it is, uploaded the file and attached it to the post.... now today i see another person wants the gotha. I dont want to have to search all my posts to find where i respned to the other persone a month ago. I know the file is in "my attachements"...so i want to just reply to this second persone, and link to the gotha attachment i uploaded a month ago..(to be clear,,,i dont want to link to the old post i made a month ago,,,,i want to link to the gotha file in my attatchments) It appears to me you can not do this,,,,I just wanted to make sure i was not missiong something... Itmes in your albumns can be linked to i belive 4 different ways, ( i always use the bbcode). It just seemed logical that items in your attachments would have at least one way of linking to, without haveing to find the original post the you made when you first uploaded and attched the file.

Max...glad to see you around again! damn, now im really pissied i got a party to go to.... with some luck i should be back around 6ish,,,,will check in to see if you ppl are still flying around

lol... if it was me, i would go back to cfs3config (which is the graphics config button in workshop)....when it says cfs3 has been configured,,,click on file and then change display options...your probably on default, which may or may not be your screen resolution...i would suggetst clicking on select resolution, and try something a little lower than what you have your desktop set to. If that works, then move it up... just out of curiosity, you said you reinstalled the game.....did you do that because you put in the new video card?, or where there other problems that made you reinstall? also, do you have cfs3 installed. if so,,see how that plays.

dr1rookie.xml is the mission file,,it goes into historical dr1.xml and dr1.spawn go into your spawn folder spawns.rar

stump, if they put them in the global layer the same way you put your rr yards in italy, then they will be able to be set as goal objects. Would be nice if they knew how you did yours.....

sorry if i wasnt clear.. Lets say i am trying to get someone up and running in mp. They need a plane called n17_axe that is required for some missions that Axegrinder made up. In an effort to make the process as painless as possible for the other person, and not knowing just how adept they are at going to the download page and getting files, i want to put up a post in the mp forum, and attach the files they need there. If i have uploaded the file already to my attachments, was looking for a link to that file that i could add to the post, rather than have to upload the file again in the "attachments" section of the post Realise i could upload the file to the download page, and post the link to the download in the post, but not all these files are my "property" if you will, and although they are available for public download in other places, not sure if its ok for me to make other peopls work available in the download section.

ok,,so once i have an attachment uploaded,,,there is no way to link to that attachment in another post i might make a week later,,(like that bbcode you get with pics in your album) which is no problem,,,easy to just upload the attachment again when i need to. Just thought there might be a link to them.

thout i had tried that before......... you cant upload files to an album,,,juts pics i guess you could rename file.rar to file.jpeg and try and fool it...

930 here,,i can get on for a bit

lol....ok,,,mute point as it turns out.. i just reran madmats installer to load those missions so i could try it out for you,,and from what i see,,madmat took them out because of the problem with the plane,,,,,so,,you dont need that plane after all...unless,,you happen to have the games that came with the older madmat install,,,one of the missions was called axes gauntlet if i remeber...

sorry rickity,,,,went back to work,,and gotta shut this down when im working..too much flour gets into the computer (seriously.....) just copy that folder (nieuport17_axe) into your obd\cfsww1 overflandersfields\aircraft folder...and i beleve that should do it..

dutch,,,if you figure out a way,,,let us know...,,but,,i dont think it can be done somewhere,,,something is encrpted (or so ive heard).....this is why you cant do a "save" of the game, and if you pilot gets killed,,,just reload the save.... but,,its all a mute point,,,will be very surprised if just rerunning cfs3config and redoing your settings does not solve the problem... dont confuse this with the reset,,,where it tells you you will loose all your pilot/campaing data,,,just hit the "graphics config" link in workshop....

lol..thats great carrick,,,,but i think you are in the wrong thread....

try this,,,i got it off d@h.. there were a ton of sound files in the sounds folder i had to delete to get it down to size,,,but it should work....Nieuport 17_axe.rar hey ax....what are all those sound files????

sorry,,i have a bday party (not mine,,,,,,) at 3..... will check in to see if you ppl are still online when i get back.
