    Looks sweet. Mac, the link isn't working. Did you paste it right?
  3. Tiger Shark Eats Man in the Bahamas - 09/08/2010

    Yea Okay. I laughed so hard through the second half of the article, but it is opinion, not a shark story, but includes a shark reference, hence my interest. Sorry about that.
  4. Can't keep off this website

    Wow, great potential here. Contrails have put routes in sight of the whole world since they first invented contrails. I would suggest only displaying aircraft that are at cruise altitude. Near airports, slow at low level, don't display them -- too much clutter anyway. The serious contrail hobbiest can still have fun with this. I always watched contrails when I was a squish.
  5. The UN...

    Czech this out: Czech president tells UN to stay out of economics (...reuters.uk it loads slow) Klaus is close. Now, I'd leave economic governance to individual men and women.
  6. Another Hollywood Legend gone!

    Wow. I saw him in that pink submarine movie. Awsome actor.
  7. Tiger Shark Eats Man in the Bahamas - 09/08/2010

    Another shark story slices above the surface... Mystery of Disappearing Proprietary Traders: by Michael Lewis Fun read. Read it.
  8. One very big @$$ bomb!

    When I first heard this Robust Nuclear Earth Penetrator, I knew they in the Bush administration were watching LEXX on the SciFi 24hr Stargate Channel late night. They had to.
  9. Dirk:: I don't have sound on my computer(*), so it wasn't that bad. I loved the visuals. Cool vid. UFO looked like a small bird, flapping wings and all. (*) I JAM stereo when I play The StrikeFighters. Playing music really loud helps me relax during the dogfight woof woof
  10. Always thought the best looking was ercoupe/aircoupe ~> http://www.ercoupe.org/ futuristic looking even today.
  11. some questionable pilots lately,,

    Makes good video for TheSims forums though. See if I can find the story. A B-47 pilot did that, kinda. Flew under a bridge on a high altitude training mission. Kinda dumb but some guys are like that. One of the crew ratted him out. Pilot paid for that stunt, very high career price. Top #1 best astronaut was Frank Borman. The other yahoos would fly their cute T~38s across the Gulf of BP, saving time. Regs said they had to fly the coast. If I recall, Borman was the only, or one of a very few, to fly the coast.
  12. The UN...

    Nobody man fits these words and climbs to the top of any political culture anywhere, unless he's a front. The behavior is for show, and keeps the souls distracted, domestically, internationally, or both. Everybody does it. It works.
  13. What sort of Moron?

    Woa, I figured all the souls here would go lolz lexx wtf? Thanks fellas and fellattes. The girls say that makes them feel like a slab of fish, but with a saucer size eyed smile, as its something different. The woman and her football friend: This happened over here, a year or so back. Teh internets egging on a possible suicide. I think he/she carried it out, don't remember now. Here's my....personal fave example of American Personhood. From: President of the United States Franklin Delano Roosevelt To: The United States Congress Dated: 5 April, 1933 Presidential Executive Order 6102 ~ http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/ws/index.php?pid=14611 : : : Section 1. .... .... ....The term "person" means any individual, partnership, association or corporation. Section 2. All persons are hereby required to deliver on or before May 1, 1933, to a Federal Reserve Bank or a branch or agency thereof or to any member bank of the Federal Reserve System all gold coin, gold bullion and gold certificates now owned by them or coming into their ownership on or before April 28, 1933, except the following: : : :etc... Executive Order 6102 ~> http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/ws/index.php?pid=14611 Yea go ahead read it. Not banks again? wtf lexx lolz Not complaining. Banks is us, our mask, our free money, but not our freedom. When the personas fall away, the souls remain. How was that? I should stick to playing The StrikeFighters.
  14. What sort of Moron?

    Woa that's sad. Awsom pretty gal too. Dad:: He liked a beer and football, normal lad. That isn't much. UK_W:: Maybe that's part of the problem today. You never see me poast the word "person" at THE COMBATACE. And more and more recently, I never say it out in the real world. No~way~no. Did you know that in our society... Corporations are persons. Churches are persons. Nations and States are persons. Men and women are persons. Something weird here. For years I was always suspicious of the massive spread of the word "person." Latin for Mask, a legal construct. It feels so de~humanizing in a way. I finally figured it out. A few weeks back I was looking for a new bible version. I don't generally like the New Age bibles, so I tried NKJV (New King James Version). Pretty good, supposedly taken from the same Greek and Hebrew as olde KJV, but the translators went nuts with "person." NKJV Genesis 46: 26-27 goes ape with "persons" and "persons" --- 4 uses in 2 versus. That was my decision to go back to ye olde KJV. KJV uses the word souls 4 times in those 2 versus. That's when it dawned on me last week.... Corporations do not have a soul. Churches do not have a soul. Nations do not have a soul. ~> Men and women have souls. That's it! Anyways, alot of Masks souls feel lost today. Being a mask or "person" may not be helping.
  15. Just Completed my Engineering Degree

    Discoverer: Atom What is the density?
  16. Happy Birthday NGHENGO

    :good:
  17. I'm all for the Police.......But

    In the real world, when appropriate like something needing done fast, or lacking time, I say... no time to wallow in the mire Most folks -- mmm. A few get it though.
  18. I'm all for the Police.......But

    Yeah its one of their hardcore tragedies. Very weird and sad. Fantasmycal music though. If a friend texts you Jim Morrison lyrics, get that Concerned look on your face quick. Know your DOORS songs.
  19. I'm all for the Police.......But

    Shooting at nearby houses is kinda asking for it, even if it wasn't a rifle. That should be considered as a very stupid move. Going nuts is cool, just leave the firearms out. The DOORS. Text is from the 1967 song The End.
  20. Yea Jedi -- in this case, lack of publicity, as well as availability. They are marketed as "fun" devices. This kind of thing happens. For example, going into debt to banks is was marketed to us as fun. We "upstanding citizens" all told each other bank debt was fun. We "should" know that pointing lasers, or going into debt, are dangerous things. We fail. They didn't find anything. The fruit picker came out when he heard they were looking. That's one responsible, upstanding man. They got lucky, this time. I used to climb towers. Way out in the country U.S.S.A. some bubbahs would take rifle shots at tower climbers. Finding somebody like that who knew they did wrong and tried to hide would be impressive. I bought a flashlight once, it had both white and red light. Turns out I didn't read the label. The red was laser. I threw it away cos I don't like being around "fun" lasers. I saw a laser once. Never want to again.
  21. What's wrong with this picture...

    C~124 gimmie Gimmie GIMMIE I was always fascinated by this plane. As for episode, I don't even know what show but you can't beat Jeannie with Captain (black-n-white) Anthony Nelson taking off in F-104, flying around in F-106, and landing in T-38, or some permutated order of those three. I wish we could do that in The SF (TK making Thudwire F-106 mmmm).
  22. how REAL MEN trim their hedges

    If one of those blades bind up, well maybe they have a quick drop releace or something.
  23. Nice fade from game P-51 to real King Air views showing similar runway+terrain motion. That's fluffy. He just said decrease FOV value, or in pillow talk, zoom in. ...i think
  24. I have more things to do for my long term SF project, but other things get in the way for now. One other thing mentioned by someone earlier is terrain detail. Fly over smooth sea or flat salt lake bed and you may get the feeling of slow movement. That is how it should be (I think). The last thing is exploring terrain distances with external free camera. Here's my fast acting easily controlled setup... [ViewClass001] ViewClassName=FreeViewClass ViewType=FREE_VIEW ViewGroupID=0 DefaultView= AllowFromDiffGroup=TRUE SnapView=FALSE InsideView=FALSE FOV=90 PitchControl=CAMERA_PITCH_AXIS YawControl=CAMERA_YAW_AXIS RollControl= ZoomControl=CAMERA_ZOOM_CONTROL RememberFOV=FALSE LimitPitch=FALSE LimitYaw=FALSE LimitRoll=FALSE ZoomFOV=FALSE StepZoom=FALSE ZoomScale=0.001 PanScale=0.01 MinFOV=90 MaxFOV=90 OffsetDistance=0.0 The trick I use to switch from exploring whole maps to exploring inside aircraft or other models is the ZoomScale. Its not really "zoom" but you use your chosen zoom control but it controls the freecam's translation, not field of view. I make the following changes to the freecam block... ZoomScale=0.001 gives intricate movement to explore the details of external models and weapons and lots of small stuff. Just add a leading 1 to the value and you get... ZoomScale=10.001 lets you translate across hundreds or thousands of kilometer terrain. Deleting that leading one gets you back to 0.001, all in one swift keystroke.
  25. To show the game dimensions and speed are spot on, compare the game's data display with roving free camera data output. Here is how to get debug data. Extract the Huddata.ini in Flight folder cat file. Set debug data display to TRUE. On screen data can be shown in font and size to taste. Some sizes work better at some resolutions than others. The first lines are... [Debug] DisplayDebug=TRUE TextFontName=Arial TextSize=9 : : : Next: Free cam
