  1. true I was just getting wayyy too excited looking at screenies haha
  2. What tileset is that in LeL's screenshots?
  3. Heyo CA! So in my ever present quest for optimal graphics and fps and the constant conundrum that provides I have a question for any modders more experienced than me... I love the darker/More saturated look of Unlimited Effects is there a way to preserve that while in High Effects? The lighter screen shot is in High with fps of 55-70ish and the darker is with unlimited with FPS of 20-30ish usually hovering at about 29... I dont have a tippy top of the line computer its I7-5500U 16GB of Ram and SSD. Does anyone know how to make that darkened look on high effects? I know SF2 is a 32bit game is there a way to make it use more RAM space to help things along?
  4. Ah ok good to know thanks for the info! Very much appreciated, unfortunately I use a lap top so upgrading the graphics card isnt really an option... does anyone know if a USB graphics card connector would work for SF?
  5. Two Owls looking for trucks...
  6. ​Hey CA! So I have been playing around with a lot of fun WW2 addons but one thing that I have found that's a little strange is when flying escorts or intercepts on heavy bombers like Flying Fort's or liberators their bomb runs are exceedingly Slllooooowwwww... I just don't think its accurate that a formation of 17's would be Nose high almost at stall speed (like 70knts) while dropping bombs on targets. This also makes escort missions VERY LONG as well haha. This seems to be an issue for any and all SF2 B-17/24's I haven't tried 29's yet. I love the work done on these great models and not trying to belittle anyone's hard work just trying to make it even better!
  7. I will keep playing with it Ive tried playing with their cruise and turn speeds that seem to help, I made them a little bit below the cruise speeds of a P-51B while that may not be super realistic at least its more tolerable in a game setting haha
  8. Yep they cruise to the target pretty normally, then when they hit the initial point they slow way down usually and bring their nose way up and fly to the target at about 70-75 knots literally on the verge of a stall like a B-17 high alpha pass haha
  9. ​Hey CA! I was wondering is there a way to make a preset or something like that to add the same amounts of saturation and contrast to a group of images...like a tileset? I'm trying to add a little saturation to increase the vibrance of a tileset and its a little time consuming doing it to 150+ images! haha

  10. GIMP Help

  12. pixillion Image converter is awesome its like 15 bucks after the trial and works fantastically
  13. Hey CA does anyone know if A-team's MTO mod is made for SF2? It wasnt specified on their site

    LOVE IT! actually I love anything thats an F-35 program killer haha
  16. Hey CA! I am trying for the first time to make a standalone WW2 install away from the jets... I am having a rough go of it thou, 3/4 of the terrains Ive downloaded such as the Phillipeans and Formosa crash to desktop every single time at 80% Im not totally sure what ive done wrong installing them is it possible Im missing ground objects? I have the WW2 formations and nations INI's I'm totally stumped... I Seem to have fixed the issue the name of the Water.bmp files were capitalized differently than the callout in the terrain.ini files in case anyone else is having the same issue... I feel dumb now haha
  17. Hey all! I have been messing around with wrenches New Guinea terrain...Im not a huge fan of the Stock TW Vietnam tiles so ive been trying to find a tileset that works...but theres always a hole in the tiles around airbases and small cities with a harbor... Ive tried Stary's Solomons and Green Hell 3 tiles to no avail any ideas?
  18. Oh i see Im just using it for personal Use is all... It would just be awesome of Stary's green hell 3.5 tiles would work on your terrains that would make your amazing terrains that much better! I just like all the awesome vivid colors in GH3.5 I dont mean to tell you how to do your work because I think its fantastic! But making the terrain except other tilesets would make them that much better!
  19. No offense Intended Wrench... Maybe I did something wrong installing the terrain cause it looked to my untrained eye to be the stock TW vietnam tilesets
  20. Did the first release of the sarcasm beta get taken down? Or am I being an idiot and not seeing it?
  21. ​I recently started a WW2 install and for some reason the Philippines terrain always crashes to the desktop at 80% I'm not really sure what the issue here is any ideas?
  22. Maybe Uploading it to the files section would fix that?
  23. I recently got around to changing the stock Jetengine and JetBurner sound on almost all of my jets as I HATE the stock third Wire sound. So this topic isnt really a question about how to do someting but more of a what are the CA community's favorite sounds to replace the stock thirdwire sounds? (Theres no wrong Answers) I would say mine is the J79 and J79Burner sounds released with most F-4 mods!
  24. So this is a double post I already asked this in a previous threat but I figured it would be good to ask...The pilot head movement in the MiG-29 cockpits has always been super cool! Is that effect copyable in other cockpits? I think that effect would be pretty cool in say a mirage or a tomcat. Its a rather small thing but is very engrossing and makes the realism go up in my humble opinion. Sorry for always asking so many questions CA I have tons of Ideas but absolutely no knowledge of how to implement them in the game...
  25. Ah I see I figured that would be a long shot! Haha still cool thou!
