Trotski

A new one of these would be nice as well for the Galipoli Front

horrible things to fly apparently, I watched a talk by a pilot at the Shuttleworth collection, where they have to only flying original Bleriot. At low speeds ( and lets be honest it wasnt exactly quick anyhow ) ie take off, and landing , the controls reversed . You have to admire the likes of Bleriot himself , who flew these nightmares ( although rather beautiful ones ) as none of them had any formal flight training, they just got in the thing and went for it, very brave or very reckless !!

it would need to be re done from scratch, ie. a new model I would have thought. I think its quite an old model isn't it, I dont remember as I havent used it for ages.

you just need to resize the decals on the skin , the numeric value is incorrect it would seem, easy fix , just go into the skin file , and find the decal placements that are affected and reduce the size of those decals . it only looks to be the roundels that are off, so only adjust those , the fin flash and the serial numbers look to be ok, so leave those alone.

nope not really , mine works just fine, as does FE 2

Ahh there you go, that looks more like it

I thought it was a BTR 50 at first, but the nose is too short however it could be a specialist vehicle from the BTR 50 family, I have seen a modified medivac one with the front shortened like the one in the photo

Getting a bit pissed off with TK and his bullshit. Either he is going to release a win 10 version, or not, just wish the twat would make up his damn mind instead of fucking about , and quit milking the damn think like a milch cow !!

Be of good cheer my friend, and you and the missus get well soon

I'll worship the twat with the flat of a cricket bat......oops did I say that out loud

Curse that Bloody Red Baron !!

Arrrgh the dread DDS What misbegotten devil spawn it be arrrrr.

I always loved the Flatiron, it was so futuristic and "space agey " looking, I used to see them quite a lot as a kid, as I lived on an RAF station and they used to fly in to Lyneham all the time , in fact we used to see all sorts of aircraft on a regular basis, including Hunters, and even the occasional Venom , and quite common also were Iraqi "cubs" that used to fly in as well , those were the glory days of aviation, and airshows were amazing, as no health and saftey nazis existed at the time , so you always felt up close and personal with the magical machines in service at the time.

All that just to get the grass cut

I always use JPG myself, it is smaller in file size , and I think you get a much better resolution out of it as well , a good example is bring a model across from FE and duplicate it, change one of them into a JPG , as the default for FE is BMP , then convert one of the models into JPG , then suck it and see what I mean matey............This is why I wish JPG's worked in FE

Ahhh Grasshopper , eternal question of most interesting happenings , if tree in forest , falls when no one sees, does tree make sound ....................Or in this case is your wingman secretly in love with you, and wants to make sure you know for a fact, that you poop rainbows, which smell of roses, and you fly your Turkey Bird like the very angels themselves, and therefore it is inconceivable that you may possibly miss.

Good to hear from you mate , wondered if you were ok , so nice to know all is sorta ok .

Maybe from a weapons pack , or if there any included with the Tornado , failing that make a copy of the Sea Flash and rename it to Sky Flash.

It is possible to hover some of the Helo's however the game engine isnt really designed to do this , so it can be very difficult, the same goes for the harriers, you can thrust vector ( and you use basically the same method for Helo's ) however I never seem to have much luck with it, except for rolling STOL operations . The sim is mainly aimed at jets and props , vertical is very complicated . No idea about the MFD issues or the lighting in the Nighthawk , thems is black majiks n' voodoo for the model makers .......Don't trust 'em , they turn people into slugs 'n toads n' stuff.......Us Skinners however are majikal and wonderous , and we help old ladies to cross the road....True story.

Yeah the best way to do it is piddle around with it, and because you can do the multi install thing, you have hours of endless fun and frustration to keep you glued to yer PC !!

hmm do they both use the same radar sets ? if so compare the .ini files and see if there is any discrepancy at all, it must be something to do with that for some reason, give 'em a once over and compare , dunno why it has occurred though, most intriguing !! Desert 2 is a superb terrain, make sure you get the uploaded and updated ancilliary files to allow you to do the campaigns with that particular campaign, Green Hell is very good also, not sure on the Israel ones , as I dont often do Irael missions , no idea why, I just haven't got around to them I guess, NATO Fighters is superb by the way . all Cold war stuff , so some nice aircraft to play with !! OP Darius also is good if you want to do some Iranian stuff, and maybe that campaign actually has Israel maps . oh ad Tainted Cigar , all over Cuba ..........Ahhh So many mods and not enough hours in the day !!

Vietnam, Try Green hell, as for Europe, then the terrains included with NATO Fighters is pretty decent, Israel there is one I believe and for Desert you cant go wrong with Desert 2 most terrains are avilable as seperate downloads, however I believe there may be a few that are in the Campaign packs only , another reason for making those multiple installs I was talking about, that way you can test them out and see if they are for you or not, before installing in your pertinent install for whatever scenarios you are playing. As for the Phantoms, I havent noticed this issue , although I havent used one of late, it does seem rather odd that it is just the FGR that has the issue.

Ah Squiffy, is a term to describe a feeling of being "off" for example, one would feel somewhat squiffy, if the Butler fails to deliver ones afternoon Tea and Crumpets, or if ones Bordeaux is served at anything but the correct temperature. It is and indeed can be used to describe ones general health, for example , One feels somewhat squiffy today , one really must not partake so liberally of the hors' douevres at the club old boy, however the term can also be replaced in this instance with the word Collywobbles, if one is addressing ones Mater, or ones Nursie , when dealing with enquiries into ones health and well being. So broadly translated into World Speak, ( wish these foreign Johnnys would use and understand an Englishman when he speaks !! ) it can mean anything from FUBAR to knackered, or on the fritz, or up shit creek without a paddle......Seriously how common is this vile usage of our beloved English language, squiffy is a most wonderful and descriptive word with multiple uses, and may be used to convey many emotions or feelings, without getting too over excited and "Foreign" I do so hope that this is an adequate explanation for all to read and understand. Pip pip old bean .

If you go to the archives on here, there is a really good guide on how to make multi installs , each new "copy" will have its own save game folders , and if you do as Wrench says in his comment above, you should have no issues, as I said I have several installs, all doing slightly different things, but they all have the same default.ini ....Go take a look at the guides in here and it explains it very well how to do it, that is why none of us will put the procedure in a forum, as it has already been written.

What a lot of us do, is make multiple installs , primarily for setting up alternative scenarios, IE. I have one that is called test pilot , and I use it for any skinning stuff I am doing, and what I do is set up the controls and keybinds in the first or original install, then copy the pertinent file across to any other installs you may have , thus you dont need to change any key set ups, or graphical options from one install to another, as they are then ( if you do what I suggested ) all a clone of each other . Also I tend to keep a back up copy of the file, just in case of any nasty incidents where you need to reinstall for any particular reason , obviously keep the file separate from the game.....I know that seems obvious, but one can overlook this in error. As for why your file that you pasted over doesn't work, I have no answer for that, the sim can be a little cantankerous at times, and sometimes it means you just have to bite the bullet and start from scratch. On my part, I have never run into this issue . Maybe someone else has .
