well..fiqured out how to make the ac planes flyable,,,now all i gotta go is figure out how to get the various skins in there........

while back ago, stump figured out how to make it possible for everyone to fly with custom skins. Other than a couple of test missions he made up, we have not taken advantage of this. as of now, only 2 planes are available for this, the alb_dlll and fokker dvll, but im sure the proceedure he used for these planes could be applied to any others. wanted to know how much interest there was out there for flying sessions using custom skins. it would involve the following steps.. interested pilots would have to find a skin they wanted to use for their plane, and attach it to a post. after much painful attempts,,i have finally found an installer that would let me put all the skins into a package. everyone flying that session would have to d/l the package, and install it. This would mean that everyone gets to see what everyone else is flying. some fun missions using the planes available would have to be made,,,,or,,,,some missions already made up would have to be modified so that they make the skins planes available for selecting.

not sure if this is going to help you... when you open up the controls section in bhah,,,,there are two tabs on the left,,,( i have NEVER seen these,,,guess they blend in with the background too much).... the upper tab is assignments,,,this is the default view,,the lower tab is sensitivity,,,and you can edit how your axis respond to movement,,and you can edit your null zones... could be the null zone for your z axis is set to high,,,(ie,,,allows too much movement before it kicks in) in addition, you might want to look at the last post in this thread...http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php?p=249818

yeah,,get the hat clip for sure,,,, if for some reason you think you want the other clip,,the one with the 3 leds,,,ive got one here someone sent to me,,,its yours if you want it. there is no way in hell ill ever wear it,,,too big,,and another cord attached to my head would put me over the edge.. post office did manage to crack a piece,,,but its nothing that cant be fixed with some super glue

sounds great... let me know what day you think it will be, so i can try and clear the day/night...

just when you think you have heard everything huh.... cnt+q, and i belive cntl+shift+q supposedly kill the game completely,,,,but should not be used if you are running campaign, as you loose your claims if any are made..... not sure how you exiting the game, and have no idea why it says it is still running,,,,but maybe try exiting this way,,see if it resolves the problem.....

ive always recommened these for slower computers....http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?showtopic=44430&hl= but dont consider yours a slow computer by any means... if you do try them, the disable write only index and write only vertex buffers for ati still applies... and,,,while your in overides...disable sound,,,and see if that improve anything,,,, and make sure your resolution in cfs3configs is set as high as your monitor will take but that system should play bhah fine,,,

thats odd,,,you should not have gotten that far with disk one in there...... i took my disk out,,,and started the game,,,as soon as i heard the "contack...clear",,i got a message telling me the disk was missing,,put it in and restart the application...and this is before the initialising screen come on. i know ive asked this before,,,when you uninstalled,,did you uninstall everything...cfs3 and bhah, and start all over again? seeing as how you said your cfs3 play sluggish,,,maybe thats where the problem is. know youve done this several times,,but if you have been installing bhah over the same cfs3 install, i would consider uninstalliing everything, cfs3 and bhah ,(and dont forget about the other folders for both cfs3 and bhah) I would not intall bhah untill cfs3 is running fine...if you have a problem with cfs3, good chance you might have a problem with bhah....

still just guessing here,,,,,, are you using the cd2 from cfs3...,,or do you have that exe we arnt suppose to talk about? and there is another exe in there,,,cfs3mp.exe...would be interested in knowing if that gives you the same problem...

how did you copy your cfs3 files needed from bhah,,,from an install of cfs3, or did you just tell it to copy the files from the cfs3 disk? if you use the disk method, it has to be a copy of cfs3 that is patched to 3.1 already... if the version of cfs3 you have is 3.0 on the disk, then you have to install it,,upgrade to 3.1, then intall bhah and have it copy the files it needs from the cfs3 install.. and,,if you got the files for bhah from a cfs3 install, you will need the cd in there.....(just like you need it for cfs3)

im curious too....lol did a google on this,,and it came up with nothing.... going to assume from vasco's post, that you have a utility running in the background for this joystick... and not sure if you are trying to assign throttle for the game thru this utility, or thru the "controls" section of bhah..... I opened up my controls section in bhah, and from the "event catagory" drop down selected "axis", and under event scrolled to the bottom and found the throttle axis...when i dbl clicked it,,,and it asked me to asign an axis,,,i moved my rudder, and naturaly it told me that axis was already assigned,,so i just hit cancel.. is this the way your are trying it? and if so,,when you move the throttle,,,does it say you have assigned throttle to this axis,,,and you say ok,,,and save etc,,etc,,but it just wont take? if so, im curious,,,when you assign the axis to throttle,,,it will show something like "throttle slider", or "throttle axis" assigned to throttle.....if you close the game,,,and restart,,,and go back to controls...is the assignment you just made still there,,,or did it dissapear.... and, wondering if maybe you have to disable,,or kill the logtech utility,,,and make all your assignments thru the bhah control section.... so damn vasco,,,how have you been doing throttle,,,,the keyboard????

will get on teamspeak around 8ish edt to see if anyone want to do any flying... have to call it a nite,,,

is your cfs3 installed, or are you copying from a dvd or cd (that is patched to 3.1 already) if you are using an installed cfs3, and deleted that to, then reinstalled, did you make sure you played cfs3 at least once first before installing off and,,,getting to the point where i agree with uncleal....might be time to stick that other card in there,,and see how the game plays........

use the uninstall,,then make sure you delete any folders left over. be sure to get what is in c:\documents and settings\username\application data (appdata in vista)\microsoft\cfsww1 off then just install and change the install path to whatever you want.....it should be able to find your cfs3 install. lol..if something goes wrong,,,dont blame me....

what times (edt) are good for you?

quitting is not an option....... still wondering if you have cfs3 installed on that computer,,,and if so, does it run... when you re install,,,are you removing the old install first,,,and deleting all the folders, including the ones in documents&settings\username\applicationdata\microsoft\cfsww1 off?

when i put up that post, was having problems figureing out how to make a facility a goal object. if thats what you are trying to do..then read the thread on facilities in the mission builder forum. if you are still trying to make air formations spawns,,,,and have 2 spawn facilities close,,,you may have to assign priorities to them, so one takes precedent over the other (may be wrong about this...) what are you spawning with that facility,,,,,formations?

hey,,thats 7 central......right???????

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

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.
