195th_Sith

I'd also like to know. :D

And I got banned on simhq for bashing the french as a nation. HA! Right on snapple! Great joke! Or wait... truth maybe? 100% American of Irish descent. 8)

I dont know much about it myself, but have you looked on Strike Fighters Skunkworks? They have a few guides on how to do stuff with the sim over there, but not sure which guides exactly. Check it out here - http://skunkworks.free.fr/ S!

Actually, its not really new. I just increased the pitch by 100% so that its easier to tell the difference. The original only increased the volume of the same file to indicate lock. I personally found this to be quite irritating when there are explosions rocking my plane and I cant hear. It's not really anything big, I just thought I'd share it with everyone because it made my dogfighting experience that much more immersive. S!

Define "low-end" system? =)

Oh so I edited the campaign_data.ini and changed the model designations on american aircraft to lower case to match the directories.. Before I did, the squadron would upgrade and I was left in the F-100 like everyone else, and now its 1967 in the campaign and my entire group is still flying F-100s. They didnt even upgrade.. Super Sabers and Fishbeds do NOT mix well. Talk about a one sided fight....... Any ideas??? I'm prepared to use a hammer if I have to.

There hasn't been a REAL WORKING sim since Jane's F/A-18 IMHO. Also I have found that if I have a black screen at launch, I reboot and it works fine.. but one black screen only leads to more unless you reboot. That may just be my system though. I have had very good success with coop missions in Strike Fighters using 195th_Vangs launcher utility. With 2 people it's very stable and a lot of fun, but I cant help thinking how it would be with 8? 10? In all reality, if this sim goes anywhere, its going to be at least 6 months before anything happens. All these addons that we look forward to, take time out of people's lives to make. Unless your unemployed, that means only maybe an hour or 2 every few nights a week. The real question is, who is willing to wait and who isn't? And where the HELL are the carriers? Anyone can land on a fixed runway. I might have to install USNF'97 if I wanna get any carrier action with 1960's era aircraft. Sad huh?

Hey, where's the patch?

I experienced a lot of "packet loss" in F-18 especially when trying to fly formation... (The other planes moving forward and back like the system couldn't decide on where the jet really actually was. This is not something I'd like to see in LOMAC. hehehe Although Jane's F-18 remains one of my most favorite coop games ever..

REQUESTING INTEL Well personally I think we need WEEKLY updates on patch status. I love this game, and I love flying the jets. Considering I have been flying an 80% version since october, and a 47% version since last summer, I think it's time we started getting more info on the patch, because I know, I for one, am getting impatient. Yes we all want the patch to be "glorious". Nothing wrong with that, but why not shed a little more light on it? Make our mouths water, and the faith will return for most I am sure. :D THink about it. I know some of you out there reading this have that patch and are loving it.. So share the wealth and go right now, and clickedy-click some screens and put 'em up here!!!! Tell us more about it! Tell us what has recently been fixed in the last few days, and keep doing that!! Talk about the multiplayer capabilities, and how cool coops are going to be! Tell us what the SAMs look like leaving the ground from pilots POV... ya know, "telephone pole with a smoke trail" ect, use your imaginations. We just need to know MORE. Oh, and if your feeling extra saucey today, YOU CAN TELL US WHEN ITS GONNA BE RELEASED!!!!!!!!! Remember.... weekly.. weekly updates.... For as long as we have waited, I think we are owed a little more positive reinforcement. S!

Aww now come on.. hehe Maybe WWII aviation enthusiasts should play sims like IL-2, and you should buy an X-Box. There is nothing POS about IL-2 Sturmovik, period. Its the finest prop-sim I have ever had the pleasure of playing. As far as CFS3 goes, I have never played it, but heard the same thing from everyone about how badly it sucks. Hey thats a microsoft game for you. But IL-2, again.... is totally Sierra Hotel. :D

AH! My favorite F4 Phantom of ALLLLLLLL time. And someone is finally making it. Wonderful job!!!!!!!!

:!: DROOL :!: :!: SPAZ :!:

VERRRRRRRRRRY nice Rudel!!!!

Three beginning words... FOR GOD'S SAKE! I'm confident we'll get the patch about the same time Lomac is released.... Febuary of 2006. :shock: I know plenty of people are waiting, and most are very patient. I have tried to be, but like MadJeff I am sick of the CTD issue also. I bought the wallyworld version the day it was on the shelves. That was a long time ago. A VERY long time ago, for a game... I hope this patch is every bit as amazing as they claim it to be, but like so many other issues of late in the sim community, it all remains to be seen. <ducks for cover>

<leg twitches> ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzz <drool> Ok I think I'm better now. Look! Pretty stars! Oh! And a dragon!

..... and the sound of my jet smacking the hard dry desert, Migs in trail. LMAO I finally got the hang of energy fighting in the F-100 vs the Fresco. Although the 17 climbing at 80 degrees at 500 knots and increasing, has felled my aircraft more than once lately. <grin> Adds a nice challenge. But to down a Mig in the F-100 is a satisfying feat with the way things are now. I can't wait for low level attack runs in MP coop. Anyone have any idea if MP coop will include taking off together? There is just something about two bomb-laden Phantoms barreling down the runway at fullburn. Or perhaps a cat-shot? :D <insert drool> :shock: S! all and thanks for the update guys! Always seems to come just in time. =)

Microsoft Visual basic Runtime files? Thats what it looks like to me....

I agree. Although in the full release, and back to the Walmart version, my initial reaction wasn't that great. I since then have settled into it and have gotten a new respect for what the sim really is, and what it really does well! The aircraft are just down right drop dead sexy. Major drool. I admit I jumped the gun on takeoff with SFP1, but it really is a great sim and a whole lot of fun. I was also quite impressed with the terrain when I bought it, even the wally version. NOE coop stikes through the mountains should be a blast. I cant stop landing the plane from flyby and tactical view. :shock: Its the coolest RC jet I never had. So, someone mentioned something about a patch? S!

:shock: That makes me tired just thinking about doing all that. hehe but if it works!

Can't wait to do a coop.. Low altitude strike, or anti-armor in the Phantom, with human wingmen who will DO something with that dang Fresco comes around! And staring on the taxi way would be the icing on the cake. :D

sounds almost like you have your resolution in the game set to an unsupported size. Mine did that and I couldn't figure out why I CTD when I started a mission, until I noticed I had it set to 640X400X16, and not 640X480X16 as I had intended.

LMAO! :D You guys had me rolling with just about every post. I love it here :D I agree the A-6 would be extremely nice. THEN how about a Nimitz class carrier? If anyone is working on this or has ANY info on the subject, please let me know!!! Otherwise, whats the use in having a tailhook? Airstrip arresting gear? BTW, anyone here read the next book, "The Intruders"? Just as good as "Flight of the Intruder", 5th time reading it. Gets better and better. WOOHOO! We're going to SAM CITY baby!

So!!! Is there an intro? I haven't received my copy via FedEx yet, but I have high hopes for tomorrow! And what about the multiplayer? Are there coop missions you can play with your squad? I have been drooling over screens of this game since the very first ones were posted on simhq and Dogfighter. As soon as I learned it was coming from the same developer as EAW, I knew it was going to be a success. Along with EAW, I have to say bravo TK, even the walmart version was a blast! :twisted: S! All. See you in the desert skies soon!
