Merlins and Griffons, 2 of the most beautiful Aeroplane sounds ever invented !!

Yes its still there, actually read it yesterday funnily enough http://www.simhq.com...r/air_055a.html hope it helps .

Happy 74th Anniversary to all rockApes past present and future. on the 1st Feburary 1942 my beloved Regiment was formed.................PER ARDUA https://youtu.be/UolMYqLbPk0

Well, I seem to have run into a new and interesting issue, for some reason, when ever I now start a mission, in any Aircraft or type of mission, for some reason, the throttle seems to be set at 50% by default, so, 2 questions, 1, where do I find the reason for this, and 2, how do I stop it, as it is rather annoying, as some aircraft have crappy brakes and start to roll as soon as the mission starts, which I don't desire to happen at all, also, is there a way to start with the engine off , so a physical start of the engines is required........Thoughts are muchly appreciated.......oh I have desert 4 installed, also sarcasm 1.5 , and cumulative effects , dunno if this will have any bearing on the issue, however I must point out that yesterday, all day, the problem wasn't occurring except with the A-team Hornets Signed you local and mostly friendly confused one.

I solved the problem by re installing my Stick, the issue was with drivers it would appear, mind you the whole thing had gone barmy, as I lost all cockpit sounds too, tried everything to get 'em back , but something was telling SF to ignore the Soundlist ini too, so uninstalled the lot, searched the pc aggressively for any floating files, ccleaned, adawared, spybotted, and hard reset the system, reinstalled it all and bobs yer Mothers Brother, everything shiny and new, and works spiffing. ~~~~I guess sometimes drastic measures are the best ones.

I see your drone, and raise you one Eagle.

The full statement actually reads as Cockwombling Wankspangle , I find this statement can be applied to many and various situations and or persons...........and KJakker, I totally agree, however, as our friend the megalomaniac actually gets off on banning people, and denying them the access to these files, responsibility is irrelevant. The....Gentleman in question, gets off on annoying, upsetting and generally being a bit of a pillock. and as a couple of folk here have stated, not all the aircraft hosted on his Royal Spunkbubbleness'es site are that good, and the good modders on this site then work 'em araound a bit and make 'em 200% better.....The Viggen being a good case in point, the problem lies with actually gaining access to said files in the first place, to allow our esteemed modders to work 'em over , and stick it to da man ( his Royal Spunkbubbleness ) This site is till alive and vibrant, his is rather bereft of life from what I saw, especially his forums, where he is dead keen on everyone else toeing the line whilst being a rather unpleasant character himself......AVE CESAR.....do as I say not as I do.

Yeah me too....think I qualify for this accolade !!

Hmmmm seems I have stirred up the hornets nest.....sorry 'bout that.......But as an ex serviceman, with a few scrapes and bruises, earned doing that particular line of employment, I don't take kindly to being disimissed or belittled by some REMF asshat, with his head so far up his own jacksie that he has a perma tan . he aint even got the stones to reply to me...so screw the wankspangle . Nuff said !!

I'm friends to all mate, life is too short for silly political games, we have enough of those in real life !!

The unfortunate thing is, there are a few bit 'n bobs he has which modders on this far superior and friendlier site have enhanced, such as the Viggen etc, and things like the Swift , Scimitar , and attacker, which aren't available elsewhere ( or at least not that I have found) I have managed to get a few choice files such as the Viggen, and the skywarriors etc which have been revamped by Wrench and other modders, however t I didn't manage to get the scimitar, and attacker, also some of the First Eagles stuff I didn't manage to retrieve unfortunately. I wanted the Tweets and the connies too, but he killed my account before I was able to get 'em......the insufferable LITTLE man. it's just annoying and frustrating. Just as a point of interest, how legal are his so called "copyrights " ?

Well thanks for not bollocking me lol, I tried to be as polite as possible about it all, but I do rather hope that he may be infested with the flea of a thousand camels ( if they will have him) and be afflicted with the curse of T-Rex arms so he is unable to scratch. mind you he is obviously a "little" man any how with small penis syndrome, and just because his nam is Cesar, he thinks he is actually the re incarnation of Calligula.........I hope his files and he, are very cosy together. PER ARDUA

I must get myself one, sounds to be a good bit of kit !!

I also run spybot S&D (filehippo.com/download_spybot_search_destroy/ ) along with Malawarebytes, they do actually work very well together, and sometimes one detects things the other misses, CCleaner is also invaluable, I'm afraid I don't Rate Norton, or any virus killer that you have to pay for, security should be free and available to everyone, I rely on Win Defender which works as well as any payware Virus scanner, and it is in built already into Windows, after having major issues with Avast causing slow downs and memory hogging, I just now use the tools aready in place in windows, however, Spybot, and Malaware are vital, as they can spot key logging attacks etc. and CCleaner will clean out pretty much everything you want got rid of too, just keep 'em all updated and run them all about once a week and you are cooking on gas mate !!

That is looking really very scrumptious I must say

The issue is my throttle is set at zero, but the flight seems to want to start at 50% ( randomly) so if I flick the engine off then back on, the throttle then shows as zero......so my mapping isn't the problem, there is obviously some conflict somewhere that causes this to happen, like I say its random, so the workaround is just to flick the engines off as soon as the flight starts. which isn't really too much of a problem really, its just a niggly issue which is playing havoc with my OCD lol lol lol. The issue seemed to start after I installed the A team Hornets......and NO !! I aint uninstalling 'em, before ya tell me to lol

Throttle is always set at zero, so that certainly isn't the problem, also as the problem seems to be at random, my physical throttle setting aint the issue here at all, its a very odd phenomenon, to be sure, I have checked the setup of my X52 and that doesn't seem to be the issue either, so maybe I shall just have to live with it, as if it were a common problem you guys would have known about it already....oh well....lol

Yeah we have lost Lemmy, Natalie Cole, David Bowie , Alan Rickman, now Glenn Frey. What the hell is goin' on !!

And now, its stopped happening .......Arrrgh....I hate intermittent problems......however, I would still like to know where to look and see what may be causing this issue, also setting the engines to default off, at mission start

There is just something, I dunno, fainly romantic.....is that the right expression ? About Silver wings era Aircraft. They were quaint, but very capable, and deadly. I have a love of all things Italian Aircraft wise any how, and I just love the Gladiator, Seen her flying a lot at both Old Warden, and at Duxford. My dreams were answered when I got a 1 hour flight in a Tiger Moth at Duxford for my 50th . I just wish I could afford more !! So bring 'em on I say, Gauntlets, Chirri's etc etc it would be nice if they were transferable to FE2 as well as SF2 , just because lol I salute your skill at modelling these beauties, I wish I had the knowledge and or skill to do it myself !! So keep 'em coming please.

Two of the prettiest ( In my humble opinion ) Fighter bi-planes ever produced, love 'em both. Pretty evenly matched in a fur ball I imagine.

Tunnan,Lansen, Drakken, Viggen....wots NOT to like !! .......gotta love Swedish aircraft.

Hi there, just a quick question, one I am sure I have seen asked and answered somewhere before, however I can't seem to find it, so I am going to ask anew so to speak. basically my problem is this, I am currently faffing about with various Aircraft, to create skins and markings for both the Dhimar, and the Paran Airforces, but I seem to have run into a peculiar issue, I have been adding squadron patches, and or numbers to the noses of various aircraft, and when I go test it, to see where I have stuff placed etc. they absolutely refuse to show up, unless I then quit out of the mission, whatever mission it may be, then re fly and first go into the weapons load out screen, then, on exiting and then flying the missions, all of a damn sudden, just like freakin' magic, the damn things are there, in all their splendour, and correctly positioned etc. Anyhow, my question is, does anyone have an inkling as to why this happens, and how to prevent it from occurring as it is rather tiresome and one is getting rather irritated, so much so I may have to squash a grape, or even jump of a dolls house....any help and or explanation's will be much appreciated.

Oh yeah, forgot to do that bit...cheers

And here is my pride 'n joy with all the decals in the right place....blah blah blah......seriously, thanks for the help, I was going nutz lol
