Ok i did not think of that!  thank you!

Hey all, I was playing around with different mods and I accidentally messed up my ground objects folder and so I started from scratch with my ground objects and this has led to a rash of very annoying crashes... I have downloaded the standard AAA, Tanks, SAMS, Transport and even Paskos desert objects pack but to no avail what do you guys recommend for a slew of ground objects to stop these constant crashes

​hey everyone!  I have two quick questions 1st what is the best Israel ME terrain/remake?  2nd I'm not a fan of the stock desert tiles but I really like Wrench's Libya terrain but I cant seem to find a tileset that works without holes around airbases and ports etc... any suggestions?

Thats true I will keep trying!

Hey CA!  Does anyone know how to adjust a nations pilot training level by terrain?  Specifically I was hoping to make the IRIAF and IqAF skill levels higher but specifically for the IR terrain to get more interesting dogfights past the merge, while keeping them a lower skill level for other terrains IE IR2003 and Desert Storm.  Ive looked around and the only thing I tried led to a single mission crash everytime... any ideas?

Hey CA!  Does anyone know where the file callouts are for runway tiles in the terrain Ini files?  I have always had crashes with the Desert 3 and 4 maps and  I think I have traced it to the MASSIVE runway tile file sizes.  These files are bigger than the runway files of any other terrain I have, and when starting a flight in air there are no crashes... I'm wondering if changing these tiles to JPGs will fix this, or if someone has a non super high res version of the desert 4 runway tiles,  I have no need for hugely high quality runway tiles and desert 3/4 account for at least 90% of all my game crashes.  Any help would be great!!​

American North West in SF2 with stary's wonderful SARCASM 2.0 beta!!

ohhhhh ok cool!  Mustve missed that part!  I think the cat was pointing to the Germany Cat

I have been having the same issue what about the types.ini is the issue?

Hey all!  I tried to follow the instructions for updating the AmericanNW all seaons included pack to SF2 following the instructions in the Knowlege section posted by Wrench, I still just blow up on the runway, all the aircraft seem to "Spawn" on top of each other and then blow up as a result... any ideas?  or has someone already updated the terrain?

Certain types of aircraft IE the F-15E with its APG-70 can in a sense target ground objects, however this feature is not in the game's coding, to direct LGB, EOGB, and JDAM,s you select the targets visually to aim the seeker heads of the various weapons

nevermind i just found the old drovers haha sorry for posting

Hey CA!  I recently upgraded to windows 10... however the new drivers that were installed makes everything go crazy at unlimited effects option on... everything seems fine when it comes to using SF2 with effects at high or lower.  So this makes me think its an issue with the FX files... Does anyone know where to get old drivers for Intel GPU's?  I specifically need intel hd 5500 version 10.18.14.4038.  I'm not that savvy when It comes to this stuff so any help would be appreciated!  Here is a screenshot of what it looks like on unlimited effects-

Ah ok I was just wondering what that meant is all my average FPS with my settings and mods is around 40-50

Hey everyone!  What does the game loop mean? I seem to get lowered FPS when the game loop is like 3 and above... How does one keep that down?

hmm  well I am at the Jul 2013 patch and the maps were made in the 2012 ish time frame how do yoy update those files?

Yep I am fully merged... its weird sometimes its like the files are corrupted and I reinstall the maps and they work fine for a bit and then they crash again

Hello!  I have had the most annoying issues with the Desert 3 and 4 terrains they both by far have the most crashes for my installs and I for the life of me cannot figure out why this is... anyone have any ideas?  The crashes occur at 40, 60, and 80% usually.  Am I missing some ground object or something?  Also crashes seem to get more and more frequent the closer the objective is to the Paran/Dhimar border and its super vexing...

Ya it definitely works I was flying around a rafale and was getting tired of the huge framerate drops and so I changed he green tv filter to a jpg and problem solved.

Hello Combat ace!  I found and changed a very small thing.  I changed all of the Greentvfilter BMP's in the aircraft folders to JPG's.  This seems to have made huge difference in terms of framerates and game smoothness especially when trying to dive onto a target through lots of flack to drop an LGB.  So I would highly suggest that new aircraft in the future should have the tv filters in JPG format!

WOW!  Sarcasm 2 is amazing Stary!  I hope we all get to enjoy more of your great work!

Can Anyone give a more detailed instruction of how to install sweetFX into SF2?  I tried and the game crashed upon clicking the icon on my desktop... So a quick little how to would be super appreciated!

ah ok sounds good I will check that out... I have noticed that a lot of terrains do not have and Enviromentsystem.ini are my terrain files corrupted?

Hello!  I love stary's SARCASM clouds and stuff but what I get a little tired of is when I have the SARCASM environment system ini in the flight folder winter time is almost always dark.  Is there a way to make winter daylight cycles the same as the Summer?  it even effects the desert 3/4 maps where flying in December at 2 pm means total darkness.  I would love to be able to see all the pretty winter tiles people have made for Germany and Kamchatka etc!  Thanks!

hmmm interesting I tried playing around with those values earlier to no avail but now that you say its for rockets that makes sense haha.  I would be very appreciative if you did find some updated F-15E files! If its not too much trouble would you also have the updated INI's for the S/K/I/SG as well?  Thanks!
