Everyone and their dog are writing their memoirs these days - so I thought to myself: why not me? Printers and publishers fight a tough battle for markets. They even have spies, and one such spy found out, that Dej as well as RAF_Louvert are planning to write a book about their numerous adventures during their OFF campaigns. So I had to be quicker, and really - we have the title done today. Well, almost. My publishers are yet trying to work out a deal with OBD Software about the use of the OFF-Emblem. So far, I heard that Winder wantes a whole case of 24 year old Scotch Single Malt Whisky, while Pol wants additional hours per day for sleeping, and completing WOFF. My publishers now try to find ways how to achieve that. Here's my book, Dej and Lou - beat that - Mmuahahahahahahahahaaaaaa!!!!!!

Too simple...

Tony, "hit by a bus" describes it quite well (I once had a lung operation) - take your time to get back on your toes! All the best from Berlin to Canada!

Do you smoke fish in Louisiana? Maybe one could smoke the snake? Where I come from, we smoke eels - a fat, but delicious meal!

....and please check our PM - it contains important stuff.

...about yourself, as I see it? No, we don't know any other meaning for "Anorak" here, than a warm windbreaker with a hood.

Maybe only for some time. If you didn't patch your installs, the sim won't work very long. Please do yourself the favour and read my previous post, and follow the link. There you find how to install OFF and HitR.

Hey, that is exactly the kind of mother I had expected you to have. LousyAnna must appear quite exotic to the rest of the US of A. Damn, I LOVE to try your special Cajun seasonings...

Mmuahahahaaaaa!!! I'll tell the German team, Lou! The number of the doctor, please! The man is worth his weight in gold!!

Yes, the German team is both, still quite young, and also quite experienced already. I would have wished for the Greek people though, that they had met a different opponent; that it hadn't just been the Germans who kicked them out. They played with a lot of real good enthusiasm, and they didn't give up and fought hard until the end. But the German team had also played very good and it sure was a deserved victory. Next match will be against England or Italy. Both quite strong opponents - that match will be hard to make a tip for. Especially Italy is Germany's nemesis.

Well, I get the same links as you in the USA, Lou - but here is what I see, when I click yours: It says, that they are sorry, but the GEMA didn't give YouTube any Copyrights. I totally understand that, cause it is the correct way to deal with the artists rights. But it seems to me, that Germany is the only place in the world, that cares? .

Good one, Lou, and you hit the nail - I made the title of this thread after that song, and first even thought to add a video of the good old CCR playing and singing that song. Then I found it was too far off-track. Now I was searching for one, but as usual - nothing in German YouTube.

Hehehe - well, it was already a well-known "secret", Mike. Here is an excerpt of a British map showing fortification trenches and German additional rail tracks south of Douai. When Max Immelmann arrived at the front with an all new installed Fliegerabteilung in 1915, they had to wait for hours at Douai, cause all platforms and ramps there were occupied.

I think they are really more busy along supply tracks. Mine was near Douai, where there was a big German railway junction.

Were you near St.Omer? Might have been British supply trains?

Hauksbee, here is the direct link to "Installation & Graphics" - right at the top it gives you the install- and patching order. http://overflandersfields.com/FAQ.htm#Installation_and_settings

Seems I had the album set as "Private", elephant. I have changed that now - hope you see them now.

Do you see the little link images? If you do, click on them. If not, something is wrong. I see them.

Hauksbee, I hope that it worked for you. Whenever you have the impression that something with pilot files or campaign files is corrupted, try first only "Reset OFF Manager". Only if the problem lies deeper, you should also "Reset CFS3". This resetting may cause some of your personal settings and adjustments to be set back to standard/default. Best you check them all.

The first encounter of Jasta 12 with Sopwith Camels in July 1917 - I made two screenshots, which I treated a little bit in Photoshop, just to make them appear even more dramatic. http://combatace.com...-burning-camel/ http://combatace.com...-falling-camel/

Yes, 3 is a good setting for Terrain.

Hey, Jim, it's nice to see you here again, but please don't come back only to criticise. I mean, if the devs put lots of hours more into train building, these hours would be missing for the planes. And hardly anyone ever sees a train from so close on, right? Anorak.

I run "Terrain" at "3" - looks great from the air, and saves performance. What do you use?

We should have proceeded to an airfield defense at Lagnicourt, but then I saw the train passing nearby. I have rarely ever seen them, cause usually you have other things to do and don't look out for them. But today I couldn't resist, and took the risk to get a slating from the CO. Here are my pictures:

Quite well made game/sim scenes mixed with real ones:
