Yeah, on the USS Independance back in'78, we lost 8 guys in our workup to, and eventual, deployment. 5 were pilots, the other 3 flight deck crewmen. Who ever said the cold war didnt cost...

Zag, 1st, make sure nothing else is running in the background. Check this by hitting cntl, alt, del. The only things going should be Explorer and systray. If there is anything else going, close 'em out. 2nd, Your machine is a mid-range machine. I would suggest making sure all your in-game video and sound settings are mid-range also and not high. Let us know what happens then ok? Good luck... PS. I might also add that if these games ran well before you added the latest video drivers, you might try re-installing an older version that worked. New updated drivers dont always help with more than a few problems that not everyone has. PSS. If all this fails, take note of my sig and do as I do at that point...

Can any tell me a way to add a download counter to my HTML website? Is there a java script or an HTML script perhaps? Thanks...

I have been working on a ficticious campaign for awhile using the Balaton map, pitting the Soviets against the Germans using early war, (1940), aircraft. I am nearing completion of the release version of just over 20 missions, though I expect a few more missions to be added a little later on. It will feature among other things, movie .ntrks. I am posting on my personal website the first movie along with my first missions' recorded track as a preview for anyone interested. The movies can be found here...BALATON PREVIEW!They include an installation readme. Any feedback would be much appreciated. Thanks all...

Ok, decided to go ahead and post my preview video on my own website despite the limited space. I also made an announcement on the IL2 forums here, just copy and paste into your browser, the HTTP button isnt working right now...http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/6/ubb.x?a=tpc&s=400102&f=50910533&m=180101513 You also can get the video here...again, copy and paste...http://home.nethere.net/pcpilot/video/jbvid.zip Please let me know what you all think, thanks.

MJ, Another problem. My track file I uploaded keeps coming back to me "incomplete or damaged" when I do a test download. The file archive being uploaded is fine. But its missing a couple files in the archive after I download it. The track file I uploaded can be found here...http://forum.biohazcentral.com/index.php?showtopic=5006

I got a reply from Extreme_one concerning track editing on the Ubi forums. He gave me a link to a thread he started awhile back concerning editing here...http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/6/ubb.x?a=tpc&s=...0533&m=76710959 Its very useful for all us wannabe movie producers. Using a few of his techniques, I made the attached track for my Balaton campaign. Follow the readme and tell me what you think. It isnt spectacular. The collossal block busters will come later. ;) pcpilottrack.zip

Got it answered on the IL2 Mission builder forum. Seems I can put the track and MSG file in the training folder, edit the all.ini file to include the track, viola! Now, if I can just get the tracks to play in color instead of BW in the campaign itself. My campaign has been renamed Balaton and now has 18 missions and 5 movies. The last mission I worked on tonight is an attempt at intercepting an enemy night time intruder; the classic "washing machine charlie" scenario. You should see the searchlites and flak; very cool. ;)

NP Beer, thx.

I have finally figured out how to add messages to tracks in my campaign. Even got the timing down. Thanks go to Extreme_one for his excellent British campaign. I looked in his folder to see how he had done it and it all suddenly made sense. But I have a question; How can I view my tracks WITH the messages without going thru my campaign? I might still want to edit them. I used the record viewer in-game but it doesnt show the messages. I tried adding the MSG files into the records folder and then do playback but that didnt seem to help, still no messages. Any suggestions? Thanks fellas...

These arent the new ships, at least to my knowledge. I havent come across them yet as I have been playing the original scenarios and not the new added on ones yet. But still thought you might like them. WHOA! How'd THAT get in here???!!?? GO NAVY! ;)

Firehawk, that is one sweet car. Your cousin buys me one and ILL marry him. :D ...of course, I wont be sleeping with him though... :P :D ;)

Got it! Can be seen here...IL2FB Forum

Not sure if I can, like you, Im not to familiar with some boards' setups. But Ill give it a whirl and let you know. If not, then Ill post the link to this thread here I guess.

You mean THIS P-38? I would really dig some Hellcats and Corsairs. Imagine going after some in-coming Vals... :)

Man, I couldnt stop laughing, thats just too cool. My two favorites...IS IT BETTER TO BE SINGLE OR MARRIED? I don't know which is better, but I'll tell you one thing. I'm never going to have sex with my wife. I don't want to be all grossed out. -- Theodore, age 8 It's better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need someone to clean up after them. -- Anita, age 9 HOW WOULD THE WORLD BE DIFFERENT IF PEOPLE DIDN'T GET MARRIED? There sure would be a lot of kids to explain, wouldn't there? -- Kelvin, age 8 :D :D :D

Check out this thread at Ubi...Carrier take off & landing. I HAVE read other threads in the forum where Oleg specifically said that Carriers WERE possible with the game ENGINE. I tell ya, I'd LOVE to see CV's in IL2. This is gettin me all tingly again...

LOL, You know, those are some cool screens snapple. Is it just me or are the gun flashes getting better? It seemed like all they were before was just a puff of smoke. I always wanted to see a BIG ball of flame, kinda like a 30mm on an IL2... ;) . You should post these on the IL2 forum at Ubi. Maybe even in Oleg's Ready Room to show him the bug. Now Im gonna hafta include the Tirpitz in my next campaign. Im also gonna have these two go at it in the editor. I wanna see this battle first hand... :D

Did you get them MJ? I uploaded them when I got home from work.

I live 45 miles NNE of San Diego in a little town called Ramona, though it is growing like everything else in SoCal. This picture was taken in the Anza-Borrego Desert about 50 miles east of, and over the mountains from, Ramona. I was checking out where the Pacific crest trail crossed the hiway in its dip into the desert from the mountains. My dream car? Hmmm, Im pretty happy with all I got to be honest. But if I were to indulge, Maybe a early '60's 'vette. Of course to me, a ww2 half track would be cool too, hehe. All OD green, polished to a fine sheen, armor-all rubber tread booties(road wheels), and an all chrome .50 cal mounted on a titanium, embossed gun ring. Wear my scarf and WW2 aviator goggles and helmet, have the windshield down and the canvas top off and imagine the babes' looks when they see you clank by in that baby! :D

Im presently driving a Black 2000 Ford F-150 V6 4.2L short bed with a rebel flag on the windshield, a 30.30 behind the seat, white letter'd radials on chrome wheels, and a dog in back. Can we say YEEHAAAAAWWWW!!! :D

Hey, I got one Bud light left; Ill hoist it tonite to ya snap. Happy B-day Reb... :D ;)

Hey! Wait a minute! Im BOTH!!! Im so confused... :D

Way cool! Got it and installing it now. :)
