  1. I have tried this a few times via making a static airframe lod (gear down), you then have to place the lods and bitmaps into the terrain folder you're going to use them in. Then you have to make an appropriate entry in the types ini for the static aircraft, usually a MISC object will do with little value. I think I copied over the entry for the static aircraft in the Range terrain for simplicity. Then using the type name of the static, you then go about finding offset positions from areas in the targets.ini to make appropriate placements for your aircraft. It's just a bit tedious. Especially when trigonometry gets involved to make your statics look uniformly directioned and spaced out on a ramp that points at 151 degrees
  2. Nice M2 you have there Nghengo.
  3. Here is a better quality version of the cockpit photo....
  4. Surely it's just possible to put all of the moving parts that are associated with the thrust vectoring into one animation slot designated for that purpose.
  5. About the monitor, make sure you are using the correct aspect ratio in the graphics settings menu? I had some initial problems with my 22" screen when I first got it.
  6. About Damn Time...

    Another good example is the disproved accusations that were brought against Colonel Tim Collins.
  7. Someone is going to die....

    EDIT: Problem solved, seems I no longer get the error, I tried another server and it connected all okay.
  8. Someone is going to die....

    Dammit! I had logged onto the server to see if you were there and all! We're gonna have to hook up some time to have a good few rounds, you too SayWhat. Anyone else?
  9. Someone is going to die....

    Was playing in a public team deathmatch last night and got a keycode in use error that booted me. I'm still not trusting it entirely. You still play much Hrnt?
  10. SayWhat is correct, the aircraft you see in that newspaper article is in fact made in a modeling program (3ds max maybe), and is just a render. In fact, here's a pic of it in max.... http://www.supercars.net/pitlane/pics/1788088b.jpg
  11. Betah's forum however is usually quite comprehensive for aviation books.
  12. Poll: Most powerful / moving game moments

    In the One Shot mission of CoD4, when there are nigh on hundreds of Russian troops all wanting to kill you when trying to make it to the evac point, it gets the heart pumping.
  13. Here's some links... Some background reference on the airframes... http://www.bywat.co.uk/39.html Walkaround... http://su22m4.free.fr/canberrapr9vrai/ http://su22m4.free.fr/canberrapr9vrai/canberrapr9.htm Airliners pics... A.net Canberra PR.9 pics One last interesting pic, a 39 sqn bird with a Boz pod...
  14. Sure, if you go to marcfighters.combatace.com you'll be able to download the Mi-8.
  15. Unfortunately, this won't be possible, if you take a skin that is for the current MiG-29A, and then try to use it on the MF MiG-29A when it comes out, it will not work, as the two different aircraft have different mapping. It will require a whole new repaint on the new version.
  16. Mega Poll: Greatest Guitar Solos of All Time

    Now you're talking my friend, I saw Slash perform recently, towards the end of the Velvet Revolver tour, although I'm inclined to say that his live solo in Patience beats it. My top five would be: Jimmy Page - Stairway to Heaven from the Song Remains the Same DVD. Gary Moore - Parisienne Walkways Don Felder & Joe Walsh - Hotel California from the Hell Freezes Over tour. Slash - Patience (using Godzilla) Eric Clapton - Sunshine Of Your Love Notable Others B.B. King - Thrill Is Gone Jimi Hendrix - Hey Joe Eric Johnson - Cliffs of Dover Joe Satriani - Super Colossal Yngwie Malmsteen - Black Star Brian May - I Want To Break Free
  17. Thanks Marc et al! Downloading now.
  18. Went to Duxford today, saw XR222 again when I was there. She is a real beauty to behold up close. Looking forward to your rendition Craig.
  19. Holy Moly!

    Many happy returns!
  20. This is getting a bit silly...
  21. Iran's latest....

    Note that this seems to be one of the old original F-5's, hence it still having the IIAF marking, as opposed to IRIAF.
  22. Civil Aviation

    I am quite partial to GA and Civil aviation, I like to spot the aircraft coming into Heathrow as I live underneath the flight path. My brother is an airworthiness records officer for Virgin there also, so he gets to see some of the more interesting civvies that fly in and park up outside the hangar he's in. Like has already been said, if it's got wings and it'll move.... EDIT: Nicky and Craig, make sure you get onto ukar.co.uk, there's a great civvy photography section there.
  23. Iran's latest....

    An old picture, but interesting nonetheless...
