I will try to get on at 7:30

It thought it was going to be a french campaign.

Hi I remember reading somewhere on the fourm that you can use a program to open up the skins in the skins folder to look at them. I can't find the post now, could someone tell me?

IF I use the DDSview will effect gameplay at all?

Thanks for all the replys. Now i can go and choose a skin i like for the modle that I am building.

Oh ok thanks, if the program is found tell me please. thanks, Av8er

Where did you find your horizon line gauge? I have been looking and can't find it.

I am around most afternoons and evenings too. I know how to use the 24 hours clock but it confused me putting it from CST into PT. So could you post what 12 hour clock times you will be online?

The grid system would be great. I'm always asking if you guys are on the D of Dioua most of the time you are but you can be 7 miles north of it and you can be 4-5 miles west sometimes. This grid system would help me a lot we could be saying " I'm in the upper left hand corner of the 9th square." is stead of north of the D.

To bad I didn't read this fourm earlyer I would have liked to fly that mission. If you guys havn't flown it yet I will join if I can.

How is the torpedo supost to get passed the undercarage? Won't it veer off course if it bumps the green part?

I could be wrong but I thought I had 2 more confermed on the second misson.

Just got the same thing about 2 minutes ago.

You should make one with you flying Zepplins next SD that would be cool.

What Nvidia card do you want to get?

What button do you press to see how much FPS you are running?

Ya I don't think he does ether, Saturday would work for me also.

Ya today was pretty fun the only thing I was annoyed at was that I got lost about half way throught the second mission and that none of my bullets hit home due to bad FPS. it was very cool seeing all the different skins flying around me. As for flying in formation I will have to give that some time. Anyways thanks for the game Vasco and I will play again next sunday. Count me in for tuesday Sitting Duck.(mic has been sounding weird apparently)

Never mind I should look around before I start asking questions.

What is the price?

How did you figure out how the fly with the aces?

Hmm well that looks great. the crosses fit in perfectly with the rest of the skin. Nice job Red-Dog you will have to make me one next. Mack was it you that was flying with me and SD about two days ago? Or maybe it was Axe I don't remember, anyways one of you took so screenshots of me and SD fighting and I would like to see them. Thanks, Av8er

Hi guys this is the prologue of a story that I am writing based on missions that I have flown in OFF a well as RB3D. With some extra stuff I added in here and there of course. Tell me what you think. I am open to sugestions if you want to give them. Life as a World War One Pilot Prologue As I flew over the front I looked down through the cables of my right wing scanning for enemy planes. I saw the French and Germen lines below me, they are quiet now for it is still early in the morning. I look to the left and see my flight leader Hauptman Strugg in his Fokker E.III She has a tan colored canvas with the solid red line of Jasta 11 in front of the black cross. The Fokker E.III is a monoplane fighter which is ether painted green for the eastern front or this tan color for the western front. It is not a very maneuverable plane compared to the Nieuport 11 Bebe of the French but it is the only one we have right now. The Nieuport 11 on the other hand was the newest of the French arsenal. It had white canvas with a Indian head on the left side and a marking of choice on the right side. It is a biplane and has good power and maneuverability. I look behind me again scanning for enemy planes, you always have to be causes when over the front for the enemy could be anywhere. I didn't see any to my left behind me or my right. I then realize that I am flying alone. Looking around franticly for my flight leader but don't see him. All of a sudden I feel thudding all over my plane, behind me is a Nieuport 11 which had just emptied it's whole drum all over my poor E.III now I know why I couldn't find my leader he had seen the Englishman and ditched. The Englishman was now standing up reloading his Lewis gun. I took this chance to quickly check over my plane and finding it would be able to dog fight brought it into the tight left bank keeping my eye on the Nieuport the whole time. As I banked around I glance left then right trying to find the rest of the Nieuport's squadron. Not seeing them I find my adversary again. He had now finish loading his gun and started a left bank as well. It was now a test of endurance and skill and he had plenty of it. As we turned I studied him looking for a flaw in his flying. Noticing that he dipped down every so often I made sure that I wasn't which made me slowly move in onto his six. After about three or four revolutions I was close to firing distance two seconds later my nose was even with him and I pulled the trigger. The Spandau on my planes cowl burst to life hurling lead into the Nieuport's tail, a rookie mistake, you should always lead the enemy a little to make sure you get a nice clear shot. I then noticed that the Nieuport was not flying as smoothly as it did before. Looking more closely I noticed that the rudder was ripped to shreds and that half the plane's horizontal stab was missing. The Nieuport was now helpless. I easily pulled ahead of the plane this time making sure I lead him, squeezing the trigger and heard a scream. I had hit the pilot. The Nieuport pulled up stalled, nosed over going into a spin. The top wing broke off and the plane hit the ground after a long spiral. Feeling pleased with myself I turned and started my flight home. It was a peaceful flight all the way back to the airbase in Douai, there were no planes in the sky. When I spotted my airbase I saw that Hauptman Strugg's plane was just landing. I came in behind him landing smoothly bringing my plane to a halt beside him. His plane was in even worst shape then mine. It was full of holes from the cowl to the tail. I walked over and offered my help. “Sir I looked around and you weren't there” I said. “Offizierstellvertreter Heinrich good to see you made it back safely. Judging by your plane in better shape then I. Did you get any?” He replied. “Yes I did sir, I sent a Nieuport 11 into the ground after you disappeared. What happened sir?” “Well Heinrich we got jumped by three Nieuports up there. I got two to follow me down to the ground leaving one for you to take care of which you did. I will file a report for you so that you will have your first kill. Good work Heinrich keep it up and you will have a shiny metal in no time.” “Thank you sir.” “By the way take your plane down to the hanger to get it fixed. If you do it now it should be done by tomorrow.” “I will sir.” Av8er

Thanks UK I will put that into mind When I start wrighting the rest of the story. After starting a Campain in Jasta 11 I noticed that I doesn't even say that there was a base at Douai but in Manfred Von Richothofen's journal he said there was.

Hey VonGuber, Did you get your mic figured out?
