  1. That should be a scotch tumbler.
  2. What are your detail settings, if they are all on five it is pretty sharp, but it will cost you FPS.
  3. Problem in campaign mission

    When you come out of the briefing room with the assigned mission it will list the actual pilots assign to the flight. The before the briefing room screen shows the pilots that are available.
  4. Mixture Control for Caudron G4

    Just guessing I would think you have to adjust the mixture for each engine individually. If you look in engine controls in the key mapping in Workshops, there are individual controls for up to four engines.
  5. 2-seaters NOT taking off

    I have been flying a Lafayette Escadrille campaign flying N-10s and have found during recent missions the planes are not taking off as expected. I keep the flight instructor up because I like to know altitudes and other things that are expected during the mission and it has an interesting feature, it tells you when you are supposed to take off. Anyhoo, in the last few missions the flight leader and other members just sit there with their engines running, but I take off at the appointed time not following the others, then sure enough they take off, catch up and form up as usual. Maybe this is the problem.
  6. WoFF PE skins question.

    Yes, they are.
  7. How to save pilot head position?

    On the DH2 just hit F6 and it will line you up with the gunsight, you can still look around with TracIr but you center will be the gunsight. If you want to return to the default view hit F6 again.
  8. Welcome!

    I,ve been monitoring this forum all along and am very happy to see our return here. So my password and all the other stuff was never in doubt.
  9. Pick your wings

    My plane is not on the list either, I would most likely pick the SE5a. It doesn't have any bad habits, is fast and can dive out of just about any situation. Beard
  10. This is the most activity I have seen here in a long time, I usually check every day but somehow missed this. Anyhoo, the weather is finally cooled down enough to fly again so I have been getting killed regularly in my pilot rotation. WOFF UE is really my preference, had ROF with lots of planes but haven't flown it in years, something about the graphics which just doesn't click with me, I think the colors are just too bold, also I don't fly online anymore and haven't really since the demise of RB3D. I really do like the support that the WOFF team delivers, they keep the franchise interesting. By the way I prefer this forum also. Beard
  11. How many of us still fly WOFF?

    Just use easy reporting, no fuss, no muss. Beard
  12. OT: CLoD TF 4.5 for release on Steam

    That looks very good. Beard
  13. How many of us still fly WOFF?

    I only fly in the fall/winter/early spring, The room I have my WOFF computer in gets to hot to run heavy graphics. Upstate California gets toasty in the summer. Beard
  14. The Burnelli Conspiracy...

    No Hauksbee, I mean card stock. You print it out on your printer, cut it out, form the shapes and glue it together. The advantage being it is already painted, if you screw something up you can reprint it, and you can change it with programs like Gimp. This plane was from Murph's Models and was a free download. I didn't like the graphics on the model so I changed them to the what if scheme which I just made up. Here is another one that I shamelessly stole the WOFF scheme made by OVS. There were a bunch of modifications on this one, which was a Fiddlers Green kit which has also been offered for free (there are a ton of free paper model kits out there). This one was built a four or five years ago, when I first started the (what I call) idiot hobby. Beard
  15. The Burnelli Conspiracy...

    Here is a paper model of a Burnelli UB14 I built a while back in a "what if" scheme. I read somewhere that Charles DeGaulle used one as a personal aircraft. Beard
  16. Who Is This?

    That was a gimmy, and Australian with a machine gun. I just looked it up. Beard
  17. Who Is This?

    Robert Buie Beard
  18. Fokker parts: Mix n' Match...

    Actually the DVIII or EV fuselage and empennage is very similar to the DR1 also, but of course the wing is entirely different. Beardd
  19. Boelke and Nurse Blanca...

    After years of painting signs, I have come to the conclusion that many people don't know how to spell their own names. Beard
  20. Flying Coffins...

    I don't have the book anymore (gul dernit) but if'n I remember properly from the Blue Max, Stachel describes the airplanes when he first reported the Jasta that they looked incredibly like coffins. Beard
  21. Rumpler Taube...

    That is a very interesting plane, They have one at the Boeing Aircraft Museum in Seattle. Beard
  22. Looks like a 1917 Really Sturdy Beard
  23. I think that white stuff on the rivers looks like it is an import from the coast lines (most likely a bad decision). As far as Blender goes, there is a new one out in the last year, but it is a steep learning curve for even a graphic geek like myself (thank God I can still run a brush). I'm really not sure how you go about export/import the file type you need, but I haven't really looked at that. This game really makes you want to play with that sort of thing. Making buildings seems to be the place to start to make the game even more immersive. Beard
  24. Open cockpits in the rain?

    I really think the size and shape of the windscreen is a major factor. My limited experience involves convertible cars only. In my old Bugeye with a short windscreen my hair would blow forward like the wind came from behind, however in my current car my hair hardly moves at all, though on cold mornings you can feel the wind coming from behind in the middle of the car. Of course the bugeye (Austin Healy Sprite MK1) was pretty small and in the rain I would actually it hit my forehead, but I am pretty tall. Also, I would remove the boot around the gear shift to get extra heat from the engine. Beard
