So then what is the difference between a P-51 and an F-51, other than the P and F? I mean, I'm sure they made some, if few, enhancements.

Woo! Deck crews!!! http://www.thunder-works.com/media/deck_crew1.jpg

Great idea Fates! Obviously, I don't think this forum will be for the slow of connection, though :) Here's a couple pics from FarCry And one from PF:

F-51? Since when are there F-51s? I thought there were only P-51s.

The blue dots look good, but I'm not so sure the planes fit with this skin. I'd change those over to the dots.

Banana, you make me jealous with your l33t PS skillz :D Very nice! keep em coming!

Nice....

Just for the heck of it, post some pics of your pc!

Nice. It's nice to see someone else that likes this kind of stuff too :)

What do you need to open that file?

Oh, to have more money...

you left? :D Welcome back, buddy.

Yeah, that would be extremly hard to implement. Also, it doesn't really happen in real life, at least not where anyone can see it. Now, it does happen with contrails, which I agree would look cool, but again, too hard to implement. http://photos.airliners.net/bd7680ff1cee8a.../8/0/239080.jpg

Hello everyone! Well, with this wonderful site now under new ownership, it's time we reinvigerate our litle folding section! If you havn't ever seen it before, way down at the bottom of the forum list is a little forum called "Folding @ CombatACE" (actually, it still says Biohaz, but that should be changing shortly). In that forum we are discussing how the CombatACE folding team is doing. So what is the CombatACE folding team? We are a team that competes with thousands of other teams for something that all benefit from. We run a program called Folding @ Home that uses your computers idle CPU processes to try to figure out how protiens fold. The program was created by scientists over at Stanford University. Here's what they have to say about the program: "What are proteins and why do they "fold"? Proteins are biology's workhorses -- its "nanomachines." Before proteins can carry out their biochemical function, they remarkably assemble themselves, or "fold." The process of protein folding, while critical and fundamental to virtually all of biology, remains a mystery. Moreover, perhaps not surprisingly, when proteins do not fold correctly (i.e. "misfold"), there can be serious effects, including many well known diseases, such as Alzheimer's, Mad Cow (BSE), CJD, ALS, Huntington's, and Parkinson's disease. What does Folding@Home do? Folding@Home is a distributed computing project which studies protein folding, misfolding, aggregation, and related diseases. We use novel computational methods and large scale distributed computing, to simulate timescales thousands to millions of times longer than previously achieved. This has allowed us to simulate folding for the first time, and to now direct our approach to examine folding related disease." So by joining, you are helping to find information on some deading diseases, and hopefully some cures to this. Does Folding degrade performance? No! Folding's Windo'ws priority is set to the lowest possible, so all other programs get access to the CPU first. Only the leftovers are used by Folding. Join the Fold! It does not degrade performance, it allows for some good hearted competition between members, and, most importantly, helps find cures from some very deadly diseases! Check out the forum for more information.

Shameless self bumpage :)

I love it!

Yeah, welcome! Make yourself at home :D

Alright, I finally finished the download. I'm gonna try this out later, cause I've got some stuff to work on now. But I'll be sure to stop by the server sometime.

I saw the news on the main page. Will Biohaz be doing a review of the game? I'd like to see some good reviews about it before I go buy it...

All I see are a bunch of broken links...

Mach numbers are not the same thing as airspeed. Actually, there are a lot of different types of airspeed, but we'll stick with true and mach. True airspeed is how fast you are moving through the air. You're mach number is the true airspeed relative to the speed of sound. As Dwcace said, it depends on your altitude. At sea level, the speed of sound is 776 mph. As you go up in altitude, the air gets thinner, and the speed of sound drops. Something like 640 mph at 30000 ft. Therefore, if you are traveling at the same true airspeed, your moach will be higher at altitude then at the ground. It really doesn't matter whether your flying level or climbing or descending, the instantaneous mach will be the same, though it will tend to get lower as you descend, higher as you climb. Etc. Did you get that, or do I need to rephrase myself? :D

I suggest watching college hockey. It's more fun anyways :)

Wow... you guys are amazing. I've never seen any developer keep the customer so informed on their process, along with so many WIP shots, videos, and information available to them. Everyone should do it like you guys! :D
