Not so easy to get these to burn - they usually fall apart too early.

So you're still working on the trench map airfield locations?

Just came to page 15 of this website, and it will take a lot of time to see this all through. Thought I'd share it - enjoy! (Maybe, it was among RAF_Louvert's links - not sure). http://www.militaryphotos.net/forums/showthread.php?76040-World-War-One/page15

God, beware!

Is it only my feeling - when I see those people from some 93 years ago, they look so much less worried and stressed; so much more relaxed?

"Amazing Race???" How about some pics for wondering Europeans?

Hey, Mike Firstly, it is important, that you run CFS3 once after installing it. Enter the campaign mode and do one short flight with some craft; just start and land. That is important, cause the sim creates folders or files somewhere, which are needed. So maybe you have to install new. The screen resolution is found in "Workshop" > "Graphics config" PS: please send me a PM with your hometown and country; I will put you on the OFF Forum Pilots maps then.

Now I don't know "Thomas the train engine", but the answer sounds so cute !

It's a great relief anyway, that even the late sixties with their "summer of love" did not produce a movie like that!

Reminds me of the big shoot-out in the movie "Heat".

Yeah, some colour combinations didn't look too good. Mostly with the later coming Jastas; they didn't have the more obvious choices anymore, which were already used.

Welcome to "Over Flanders Fields", Dagger! When you did like Red Baron 3D, then you will LOVE OFF. Apart from CFS3 (version 3.1) you will need "OFF Between Heaven and Hell", and the latest patch to it. Then there is the add-on "Hat in the Ring", which brings new aircraft and more. If you get that, get also the patch for it. Best you see here: http://www.overflandersfields.com/ And if you don't have it already, I highly recommend TrackIR 5.

This is strange, Ras, as I had always felt, that this was not only just a picture of some unknown Navy man you just had found - I always felt, it was you, somehow. Now, even if I was not completely right, you are the grand son of this man. He looks a strong, handsome and fine person.

Hmmm - as far as I know, the pink colour was only associated to the gay people by the "Pink Star" they had to neigh on their clothes like the jewish people carried the "Yellow Star", under the Nazi regime. The film was surely given up, because it was obviously a very bizzare mix of genres, I think - it would have only reached a rather special and limited community, namely the gay people, who are also keen on WW1 air combat. And the latter don't like any historical distortion. Something for a late night program rather. "Brokeback Mountain" is a movie no one has to be afraid of - I saw it, and I was very moved and touched by the story of those two characters, although I am rather the old fashioned hetero. But it works; it is a very human film, and it doesn't show you anything you could not bear to watch. It doesn't matter at all in the end, if it was about homo- or heterosexual people. You will understand what I mean, when you watch it 'till the end.

Just saw this craft on "Rosebud's" website. This monoplane fighter from 1916/1917 is said to have been 212 kilometer/h fast, and it seemed to fire through the propellor. Why did it never see action at the western front? Too fast at landing? Or rather an industrial competitor keeping it out? Does anyone know more?

Yeah, it seems ununderstandable, what you regard as crapp, Bullethead - maybe something in the details we can't see here? Seems, that building 3D models brings up a lot of problems in the linking process of the parts.

PadFoot: ...what is in my mind is that say I've got Rise of Flight - The First Great War, why would I want to have OFF? Or vice-versa, say I've got OFF, why would I want to have Rise of Flight? Padfoot, I don't have "Rise of Flight", but I know, that part of it looks very good (aircraft, trains and tanks, water). The landscape looks far better in OFF again, but why I am flying OFF, is not for the looks of it (although they please me), but because of the most immersive "Campaign" mode. Although they don't use video sequences inbetween missions (which would get boring anyway after a while), they do provide you with some historical facts inbetween mission days. But the really best for the immersion factor is, that there are really lots of other flights underway along the front line, and if you would decide to give your mission target a miss, and fly elsewhere, you would really meet other friendly and enemy flights everywhere. This is not at all common practise in other sims, and it gives me the feeling, that the whole war is really going on every day, and that I am only a small part of it. So, that is my answer to your question "...why would I want to have OFF?" For the feeling to be really there, within WW1. No less.

Jammer, I said it before: you are a great video director; and more than that - a superb cutter; you understand to create athmosphere by cutting to the music wonderfully. A fine piece of sim video art really!

Just found this very moving video at YouTube. It is only one part of a sequence; you'll find the other parts there too. I am really touched and deeply moved, to see this old hero climb his "Spit" once again; to hear him talk about her lovingly; to see him perform a "Victory Roll"; and to hear him speak of the nightmares you will have after fighting in a war, as "Scars of Honour". Salute!

Padfoot, go to "Home" of this Forum, then to "OFF Forum", there to "Phase1 / Phase2". Your CFS3 can be updated to version 3.1 via downloaded patch easily. To get Phase 1 or Phase 2 would only make sense, if you either want to fly a combat sim "easy", or you just don't have even 30,- bucks to spend on a really great simulation. Now, with Phase 3 (and it's add-on "Hat in the Ring") we have got the first really dangerous AI. And there is a much improved scenery and lots of other improvements; etc. etc. I'm not a salesman, nor do I get any money for saying all this, but believe me: if you had tried "OFF Between Heaven and Hell", you wouldn't want to get only Phase 2 anymore. And the add-on could still be achieved later.

Wow, Slartibartfast, the "Tornado" was always one of my favourite jet fighters. And I always wonder, why such a craft is suddenly "out of date", when it still looks so good. I mean, the Eurofighter may be technically better - but it looks ugly compared.

It is only a national petition; I wasn't allowed to vote. But if we come so far, that such memorials can't be afforded anymore, it would be a real shame. You British people have fought a battle there worth to remember in a hundred years. A heroic defense of your home island. And the first step in defeating Hitler and his lot. Good reasons, that Europe should give you money from the big pott to save this memorial.

Wow, a good one! Is that Jim Carey doing Reagan?
