Hey CA!  Anyone have any tips about how to flatten rivers that go through mountain ranges? 

Awesome thanks raven!  

Awesome thanks raven I will check em out

Hey Everyone... Ive noticed that there are no IRIAF/IRAF F-4's in the download section of SF2 does anyone have an upload or a link to up to date iranian F-4 phantoms?

I would personally go for the X52 I've owned 2 of them over the years and have never been disappointed with them. They run great with or without the accompanying software and they are HOTAS capable

Images of Aircraft Carriers that do not belong to the US Navy!

Also you may be seeing empty weapon stations on the loadout screens for custom asymetrical loadouts or special combos of weapons that will show up in the mission... take a look at the loadout files of the jets to see

I would say that every little bit helps!  I have toyed around with some things and helped finish off some mods that have slowed down... I  think the biggest thing would be additional terrains or increasing the target areas of old terrains

Thanks wrench I guess i meant for the SoCal terrain... the terrain is SOOOOO pretty!  Will the targets in the Sf1 socal terrain work with the awesome SF2 socal terrain?

Hey guys!  I was wondering if anyone has a different target set for the amazing California/Nevada terrain.  Right now the map seems to be set up for RED FLAG and Top Gun flights more than a war... has anyone modded the terrain to be more for a what if war?

Emcombat everything that is on Column 5 is here on Combat Ace and will (hopefully) work just fine for you!

to keep from getting a huge FPS slowdown when launching brimstones and mavericks etc lower the sight FOV in the weapons data file to 1.50000 and the problem should be solved 

I wouldn't say its a dead game... the people here make it alive!  haha 

I think the biggest thing that could happen for the game would be a patch or some mod etc that would make the game more compatible with newer graphics cards and drivers 

Oh no worries mate I saw that you had been working on it for awhile and it looks fantastic by the screenies haha I was just excited! haha

Any way I can help?

Well one big thing that can help is converting cockpit and aircraft skins to JPG's this is rather time consuming and annoying but it can help...another thing that can help is by putting effects to high instead of unlimited...while the sun wont look so amazing most effects remain unchanged especially if you have a unified effects package from stary.

Also going into the options ini and forcing V sync off can add a little bit of a boost to the FPS 

I would say bring effects down to high and give that a try... I would leave everything at high except for object textures and cockpit textures... turn off shadows and mirrors and your FPS should jump

wow super cool any idea when it will be released?

The unified effects package and any effects package will work in covering any missing effects... As to the trees thing i havent noticed that myself but I will look into it, in the mean time I would try replacing it with a tree tga file from a desert map

A sampling of MiG skins added to the Angola/South West Afrika page... The flogger skin will work on almost all the floggers available in the MiG-23 package available here at CA with only slight renaming of the skins for two seat floggers... just waiting on review from a moderator

Additional Angolan/african skins are available here at CA

The Impalla is included with the terrain files in Parts 1, 2 and 3

Unfortunately right now it looks like there is no way around the DLC Mirage III's as a base for the SAAF mirage package... But it is nice to help support TK a little bit the DLC doesnt cost much

Umm well one thing I have noticed with the TV screen for LGB's AGM's etc is in the aircraft in question change the greentvfilter in the cockpit INI to a JPG file that will help... 

The second thing that will help even more is go into the weapons data files and find the value called SeekerHeadFOV= and bring that value down to 1.50000...

The narrower that FOV that the tv display is trying to show the higher your FPS will be while launching a Maverick etc

As to getting the fps stuck at 60 FPS I think that may be the limit for the game engine as I've never gotten over 60 myself... Strike Fighters Guru's may need to weigh in on that. 

But definitely play with the SeekerHeadFOV in your missiles data files, I had the same problem with AGM-65A and B's until I changed up the value

Another boost for the FPS can be turning off the cockpit mirrors as well as turning down shadows 

Two IRIAF F-4D's on the way to the front lines to drop napalm on and strafe Iraqi trenches, yesterday they were enemies of the state, a grave threat to the revolution then in its infancy... now they are the Ayatollah's only hope of survival... 

woah what map is that showing the Phillipeans
