Just an update on the missions, more or less. Not much. I removed the AEGIS-M module from the Nyx (AA) systems because it needed a radar, and it just didn't need another sensor when they had no problems engaging you anyway. That was just sorted, and I can still function somewhat, despite the freezing I'm experiencing right now. I don't know when or if this issue will be resolved, but hopefully it will be, so I can worry about content more than something beyond my control. Unfortunately, games are affected by OS updates, and this is the only one that really affected me personally, so yeah, gotta deal with it, I guess. Anyway, not much on the horizon, but always looking for helicopters to make a Pilot mission out of. If you've got a helicopter you want me to try out and include, post it here, DM me, or use whatever means to get my attention, and I'll see what I can do.

SO I updated to 26H2 again, since it was freezing on 25H2. It worked fine for a couple of days, then started freezing again. The good thing is that I don't have much to work on, so I don't have to deal with the freezing. I'm checking for updates for Microsoft to, well... fix the issue (I have a more colorful word but have to keep it professional). The only thing I worked on was an AAF version of the Radar Container for the Air Defense Containers. It cues the Nyx AA system when using the AEGIS-M mod from the Hatchet team. More or less, it functions like the BLUFOR version (the Containers were designed specifically for BLUFOR, not any other faction), so nothing new to talk about. Anyway, needless to say, ops for A3 are limited, given I got hit with that bug with the freezing, so I'll keep you tuned in, but for Sunday: - Flanker562 AT4 - Flanker562 Air Defense Containers

I'm telling you man, he needs an award or something for the abject quality he does.

From what little I know Wings of Europe is on Steam, but that was a deal I guess made for that game. I too wonder why it's not on Steam, and frankly would think that might entice other players to buy the game due to visibility and so on. But time has yet to tell if TK wants to go this route.

As a veteran myself (US Army and US Army National Guard), I like to always post an observance of this day remembering the sacrifices we all made when we served, and those who also didn't make it (I know it's not Memorial Day, but hey...), but I salute those who have served and will always serve their country in some meaningful way.

Okay, it looks like an issue with Windoze 26H2 rather than anything else. I figured this out by rolling back to 25H2 and, more or less, having the intended gameplay functionality, i.e., it doesn't freeze all the time, and I can enjoy the game as the Lord intended. Right now it's quiet at the workbench, since this is the Marines' (I don't observe it; I'm not a Marine) birthday, and tomorrow is Veterans Day. Normally I don't go for free food, since my military service was more or less for the country, not free meals at restaurants, and I get full quickly anyway, so that's that, and so on. Anyway, if you are a veteran observing the day and you decide on free meals, I'm not going to judge; we earned it, more or less, but I don't see the value when I can just go somewhere else and celebrate it, and so on. We'll see. But as such, Pilot missions will continue as long as the game isn't freezing, so on the 19th, after my surgery, I should be able to hopefully see a fix. If not? I can always roll it back and wait some more. As long as I can give you people content.

Hush you...

Okay, it seems that Windoze updates are the Achilles heel of stability. I got a Windows update this morning, and the game works. So, as long as Microsoft doesn't do too much, I should be "okay". Though I'm expecting another update to break the game, so we'll see, and so on. I really never had an issue until October 8; I've been playing the game since it first came out and never had a freezing issue until now. As such, I gotta just roll with it, because there's not much I can do to fix it unless an Update happens, and it either works or doesn't. Anyway, with that notion, the effects of firing the regular AT4 are back, so Sunday: - Flanker562 AT4 I really don't have much on the plate, than trying to record a Pilot session without freezing, and so on. It's good service to the watchers that they don't see the worst of A3, and frankly think BIS should be more enthused about game stability than always features and such. As such, that's their MO, so I gotta deal with it.

Yeah it's more or less real world things, and the scifi/What If portion has it's users, but yeah unless people really getting into it, that remains to be seen if anybody wants to do it. OFP was bad because the Wyvern... the maps were too small to fully appreciate the aircraft (some things with BIS maps and scale, and so on), but a SF2 map would allow some fun to be had. I bought a fictional plane, forgot the designation online for SF2, but it more or less followed real world settings and stuff, not super planes from Ace Combat. I don't know, maybe somebody will see this and might get motivated, who knows.

I remember back in the day somebody made a functioning Wyvern for Operation Flashpoint, but that was decades ago I guess. Anyway, somebody might take up the mantle to make something, but more or less as you said, not enough interest. Though torno made a Veritech fighter and Zentraedi stuff from Robotech, but that's the only other franchise people did around here.

Nobody has made any Ace Combat superplanes, to include the Wyvern (that was more of a wish, not fact), or the Falken, etc. It would be cool but I guess there's not really much interest in the game to bring into SF2.

Not to my knowledge for SF2... I mean I could go for a Wyvern myself, but neither here nor there as well.

Good thing that things are going good for you GKABS

Okay, if I remove and then install a Windows Update, the game runs smoothly for two days straight, then starts freezing again. I know it's a pain, but I don't want to do this the rest of my life, constantly updating, removing, and so on. It's just annoying, and it seems that it's not popular enough for BIS to do anything, if they're actually doing anything. It's annoying that this happens and won't go away. Modding is always possible, but I don't have A3 to mod the game. I am a gamer and need to play the game too, so I can relax and enjoy it and so on. Anyway, despite this glaring problem, I don't have much scheduled for mods right now. I may look into other things; I do need to get off my butt and work on the HeliSim for the Kiowa, as I mentioned before many moons ago. I mentioned I was going to integrate it into the Kiowa at some point, but this freezing is a blocker, and I can't always get a good read on what to do or focus on tweaking the mod instead of the freezing.

Click on the Support link above and go through that process.

It's probably a little more active than say, SimHQ, but sometimes it is a bit dead in some ways too.

I swear if you don't get some kind of award here I'm taking names... Beautiful work as always...

Yeah we don't discriminate on this site, but to each their own

Can you try and put it on the C Drive? Or is it space on the drive?
