No problem. That sounds like a complicated procedure though, lol. I still say you should trash ME though. ;)

Hmm... I've never thought of that before in a sim. But that would be really cool on the most advanced level!

Ahh, found it. It should be noted that one certain "BioChat" is located in the forum, not on the main page, lol.

A buddy of mine and I are planning on doing a mock Air Force One escort. We don't really have too much planned at the moment, but we're looking for a few more escorts. You'll need the "JASDF F-15J Eagle V/C Model" and the OpenSky Air Force One, both from avsim.com. You can find the AF1 plane by going to the file library and searching for "Open Sky Boeing 747". It's towards the bottom. Anyone interested?

like I said, we don't have much planned yet. I'm not even sure thats the F-15 we'll be using, I just assumed However, I will most likely be flying the 747, I like that kinda stuff. But no date it set, nor a flight plan, though I will try to make one up next chance I get.

Well, it does seem that the season is here. There were as many as 12 tonados last night. Several homes were destroyed. I llike the quote from the guy on the weather channel - "A storm chasers dream, a homeowners nightmare."

Awesome, thanks for the link CB!

S!

That's kind of scary, you and I had the same idea, lol. I still havn't seen one in RL, but then again, that's probably a good thing... Nice pictures for both of ya.

I beleive I did the usual install, but I have several textures missing on my plane. I'll look at it again when I get home...

Yes, you can pan the VC. The advantage is having a completely 3d panel at your disposal, instead of being limited to a 2d picture. you pan by using your number pad (num lock off), your joystick hat switch, or TrakIR. I think it would be best with TrackIR. There used to be a thread that showed a nice F-16 VC with trackir, but I think it fell off the bottom of the board.

what he said

Sorry to burst your bubble, but that's already been posted :) Fun game though.

Top Gun, I've been talking with MJ about the download section, and I have the feeling (like LOMAC, no garuntees :D) that I'll soon be able to work on doing just that, putting up some "must haves" for all Biohaz pilots.

Well, I got in, now nobody is there :(

Yeah, I see that, but my computer and FSHost aren't getting along.

I can't get on :( FSHost won't work.

I'm just curious, has anyone else seen Animal Face-off on the Dicovery Channel? I've been volunteering at zoo for the better part of 8 years, so I'm interested in animals quite a bit. On the show, a team of mechanics, animal experts, etc get together and build mechanical animals (for example, todays show was Tiger vs. Lion), get as much info on them as they can, and then download all the data into a computer. Then the put to two virtual animals in a fight to see which would win. The teams do a very nice job of getting data and compiling it, which makes for a very realistic looking fight between the animals. Has anyone else seen it?

Ahh, someone finally sees the logic in my several attempts thusfar... :D

Yeah, that was the first full one I saw, that was what really got my attention. Very cool B) And yes, growler, there's always the lack of personal experience. But then again, you can only go so far with a computer. Though I think it would be better if they ran the test like 5 times instead of just once, to see if there are any different outcomes. It's still cool to watch the stainless steel claws rip through the deer though :D

Do you have a firewall running? if so, make sure you open up the correct ports for TS. Saturday at 9 est... I'll be late, but I'll try to get on later that night.

AHAHA That's great. You sure that's not Dice on that thing?

Just to clarify, I only get this moving texture problem when I'm right near the ground, or better yet, on it. Same for you? or do you get it in the air too?

Yeah, basically what Fates said. Nvidia sure has made a comback. But, just comparing these cards, it seems that the X800 Pro has just a hair lower performance as the 6800 Ultra, yet it is $100 cheaper and has better graphical rendering. So for at least this lineup, I think the X800 Pro will be the winner (sales wise), even over the PE. I can't wait to get my hands on one... I've also read at tomshardware.com that ATI will most likely not produce the x800 for very long, and will go ahead and put out their R480/R5xx series in the near future. I hope Nvidia has something else up their sleeves too.
