I have stutters too, mostly on fly by view when the plane gets close, in Israel. Game is smoother in Europe. Im on an overclocked 3ghz 6600 quad and a 9800gtx. I had to dial AA and AF to 8X to get smooth play. Object texture unlimited, high for everything else. It starts getting clunky with higher settings. Its wierd how the games frame rate can oscillate between 100 frames down to 11 in the same runtime. I've never seen another game/program do that.

Thanks for that. I'm a late comer to SF, this is all still new to me. I swapped in my backup mod folder and all is well again. (Man, I did like that A6 though!)

There are no fire effects for bombs and rockets detonating. I dropped this into merged SF2 Isreal/vietnam/europe.

I found out Mig 21 HUD reticle is suppose to be that way. No problem there.

I have two pippers in Mig-21 F HUD. This is Mig-21 complete pack installed into SF2 Israel. Is this correct? Or how do I fix this?

If goverment is buying it, you don't want to see the price tag.

Full Screen Anti-Aliasing, graphic card setting that smooths jaged edges in the image. Now someone enlighten me, what is transparency/alpha texture FSAA? Are you talking about supersampling and multisampling?

Thanks for that, I was afraid I borked my install.

Figured out the view problem. (cockpit ini edit) But I have 2 recticles, is it suppose to look like this?

Took a Mig 21 for a drive in SF2 Israel after downloading the mig-21 pack. The view is limited to about 45 degrees up, meaning I cant see above the aircraft (straight up), and I cant keep tally on a target in a horizontal turn fight, they move up out of view. Can this be edited? Is it game engine limitation, or aircraft file?

Thanks man, that did the trick.

Anyway to increase view angle looking up? It seem locked at about 45 degree. Its impossible to keep a tally on taget in a horizontal turn fight. Cant see anything above the plane either in level flight.

After a few hard days of flying, this has got to be the most satifying combat sim I've ever played. Its got the best feeling flight model (meaning REAL), I love it. Took a day to tweak the graphic settings, now its running slick. Shooting planes down is frigging awesome, the eyecandy, smoke and fire look authentic, and VIOLENT. Seriously, this thing looks like real world gun camera footage. The mission generators and campaing are excellent, lets me jump in for quick action, or when I have time for a long flight that makes me worry about fuel management. Its got it all. The historical accuracy is probly the best part of it all. I got warm and fuzzy rolling out of my first napalm run, holy crap my whole cockpit lit up, I thought I was on fire when I looked in my mirrors. And I just survived my first mid-air collision with a head on mig-19 pass. He sliced my wingtip off.After pulling a quick merge and high G turn, he was small in my HUD, thought I was on his 6 until tracers started coming at me. Damage model is excellent, somehow I kept this bird in the air. Anyway, I'm not saying anything you guys dont already know, I just have a question. HOW COME NONE OF YOU TOLD ME ABOUT THIS! I'm s**t canning all my other sims, and stocking up on all the new SF2 titles. TK is da man.

I'm having trouble with this one. Instructions say to do something with Obj/Catdata6 file, but SF2 Israel has no Catdata 6 file. The Mig 17 and mig 19 has no gunsight pipper, and the mig 21 has a projected reticle on top of the A4 reticle (2 reticles on top each other).I have no idea how to troubleshoot that. Any help would be great. (SF2 Israel install only, no merged games) (Im a Thirdwire Noob, can ya tell)

Found the problem. "Sound" folder in the download is missing an "S". The game want "Sounds".

Anyone else seen this? I installed the 5 planes for 6 day mod/addon, and the Dessault Ouragan plane. I dont know if I screwed something up, or if this is a bug with the stock game. Neither of those mods/addons does anything with migs.

Yeah, you should have seen me with my nose mashed against the screen trying to see this guy, nothing but a vapor trail to chase. I reported it to Thirdwire.

There is no external engine sound. Sounds nice in the pit though.

I dont see a mods folder in the game directory. Thats where the readme for the Ouragan download says to put the file contents. Do I have to make a mods folder?

Rger, thanks.

You can download the manuals at Thirdwire.

Sweet! Thank You
