  1. Retreating

    Run away and fight another day, I say! I warp alot, so end up below and behind A Flight when HA appear Remembers seeing them fly right towards a gaggle of Spad 13's in their DVII's Put on my superman cape and poured on the coals to climb and rescue them Onnnnly to see them fly right on by with a slight height advantage over the Spad's Errrrrt, slam on the brakes and dive away from the Spad's now, cussing A Flight all the way It didn't turn out too bad as the gaggle was actually 2 flights, and only 1 chased Eventually they caught us and we battled about even Live long and prosper
  2. I got to talking about OFF to a co-worker today He's surprised me by saying he'd love a combat flight sim Now here's the problem, he has a Mac and XBox 360 ...no PC I told him I'd look into it for him Anyone know of a good flight sims for either of these platforms? He's not particular about genre

  4. OT - Flight Sims on Mac ...XBox 360?

    Good to see you back here Catch I spoke to my buddy today, he's hooked on the XBox version of IL2 Has pricing on refurbished controllers ($120) and will purchase on payday Graphics on the XBox version are amazing: http://www.youtube.c...h?v=yqVOGtdzIok Keeps talking about the bits flying falling off the aircraft Not the best decision maker but he shouldn't go wrong with IL2 Myself, I've just purchased BoB II Looks like a nice Dynamic Campaign and I've always loved Spitfires Still be flyin OFF #1 of course Thanks BirdDog, I'll pass the forum on to him
  5. Morris, I have both Season I and II on DVD This is a great series with the RL Aces explaining their tactics, step by step I found the 1st Dogfighters a little lacking in the tactics dept as all the Aces are sadly gone There is no tactical detail as the episode seems to be based on books and reports Still worth it, especially at that price
  6. OT - Flight Sims on Mac ...XBox 360?

    Interesting video When you say arcade, I'm assuming the FM's are real easy Any chance of stalling?
  7. A couple of Alb's for ya

    Widow, are these historical skins? If not, they certainly have that period feel Would make any WWI Ace proud I'm sure Great job M8!
  8. Cool.

    George, Sounds like youn might have multiple controllers in conflict If you install Rudder Pedals, for example, they will have the same 3 Axis as your Joystick The Aileron and Elevator needs to be deleted on the Rudder Peds and the Rudder deleted on the Joystick All can be fouind on Controls\Axis Commands Conflicting throttles is not very common, but I'd check all your controllers just the same All assuming you do have multiple controllers HTH,
  9. Some work in progress albs

    Great work Paarma! I especially like that Blue Tailed one
  10. OT - Flight Sims on Mac ...XBox 360?

    Thanks for all your helpful posts I found some videos and he's liking the IL2 Sturmovik on XBox ...Graphics are outstanding! Now I'm trying to explain there's a lot more to a sim than slick graphics FM, Single/Multi Player, Dynamic Campaign, etc Also telling him he should find a good IL2 forum and ask what he needs, etc. But I've never flown IL2, so I don't know where to go Can anyone recommend a good IL2 forum site?
  11. Makai sighting!

    Wow, what a dream job!
  12. Net Searching Find

  13. Now c'mon ..you KNOW you want one!

  14. Cool Beans! We've been waiting for this for awhile Region 1 DVD should follow too
  15. Spare a thought for Olham

    Those Krumpet gunners were probably frozen in awe when they saw your newly painted Albatross Kept you safe, it did, I say! But on how it came to be pink, I must plead the 5th ...Scotch, I think it was! All so blurry now
  16. Spare a thought for Olham

    Olham's back!!! We sure missed you M8 Nice to see you're all fired up and ready for action after the holiday
  17. New OFF OAW Fokker D.VII's

    Beautiful work Guys!
  18. Format C:\

    I'm about to install XP Pro on my Gamer But seeing that I'm not a computer wiz, I thought I'd ask for some advice My plan is to transfer all documents/downloads to the D:\ HD I suppose I should save all drivers but not sure where their all at Next do the Format C:\ command then pop the XP Pro disk in Any helpful tips would be greatly appreciated Beers are on me
  19. Format C:\

    Got it on-line I'm trying to make a connection to get the card tested
  20. Format C:\

    My old 7900 SLI set-up used 2 6-Pin power connectors Plugged 1 of these into the 9800 Checked the card closely, there's no other options
  21. Format C:\

    Pushing 1000 Watts already I wanted the biggest Dell offered to eliminate these problems My concern is, with the VC drawing 24A, if only 1 Rail (18A) is supplied, then the VC might be starved
  22. Format C:\

    9800 list requirements as: 1. 450W with 24A minimum on 12V Rail 2. PCI Express 2.0 Compliant Motherboard 3. One 6 Pin PCIe Power Conn. or 2 available Hard Disk Connectors (adaptor supplied) PS is robust, but will 18A rails combine to provide the 24A? Worth trying the HD adaptor?
  23. Format C:\

    You must understand, I'm the novice grasping for any (and every) useful bit of info Thouhght it might give you a better idea of my sys, but obviously you're way beyond this Must be frustrating at your end, not being able to get "hands on" Power connectors are stndard configuration ...Right? If it mates, it should have the same pin-out as the last?
