Fair enough, everyone is entitled to their opinion. Personally, despite the age of the game engine, I don't believe there is a better library out there of add-ons for a combat sim. Considering the price of entry of any TW gen 2 sim has always been at least $40 (it's never been a 'cheap' sim), the cost of a one month subscription every now and again is a bargain to take the game to the next level, especially with quality of the mods. For me, it is more than worth it and brings a lot of joy knowing it adds to helping keep the lights on at CombatACE.

Hi GlosterMeteor (nice username by the way), see here: https://combatace.com/store/category/1-subscription-plans/

The previous 5 download daily limit unfortunately worked as an incentive for many people to multi-account and bypass the aforementioned reasonable daily limit, which was costing Erik a shed load of money from his own back pocket.

If I'm honest it's been a while since I've checked the stock aircraft, but if you download a CAT extractor tool (either mue's, the official TW one or something similar) you will be able to extract an aircraft's *_data.ini file and have a check how the animations are set up... either automatic or manual control. official Thirdwire SF2 tools: https://thirdwire.com/downloads_tools.htm Mue's toolbox:

The windshield wiper on the A-4C is in animation slot ID 8, you would need to add this into the A-4C data ini which can be extracted from the game's CAT files as a manual animation with a keystroke bound to it in the controls ini

By using mue's LOD Viewer linked below, you can open up the .ini file of any stock (or third party for that matter) aircraft / ground object / weapon / cockpit etc. model and see the animations that are built into the LOD in the bottom left of the tool

Hi @abrahamwright2201, I believe the trial subscription means that by paying $6.95 you will get access to the downloads library for 2 days. Access to the downloads library is now only available via a paid subscription.

Hi Carlo, what issues are you running into specifically, is it the stretched screen? I am running similar and have managed to get the settings dialled in so that it works okay. EDIT: this thread below might help. After you have manually set your resolution and aspect ratio in the options.ini file set it to read only, otherwise when you launch the game and go into the graphics options menu the game will revert it to default. (I just never open the graphics menu in game to avoid messing with my manual in settings)

Unfortunately I think that will land Erik back in the same position... instead of people exhausting their previous 5 downloads a day and then making duplicate accounts, they would now do it after only 1-2 downloads creating a bigger multi-account problem. A lower download cap won't fix the problem sadly, what is needed is revenue generation to cover the operating costs.

Thanks for sharing this @FalconC45, I wouldn't have heard of it otherwise The game already looks quite impressive for only £15 on steam, I might have to give it a go and if the development roadmap (https://nuclearoption.wiki.gg/wiki/Development) is anything to go by there is a lot of bang for buck with this. If modding was enabled, it would be cool to get realistic aircraft, vehicles, weapons, terrains, airbases etc. into it.
