  1. Hmm, could the issue be caused by the _hm.bmp files? In some occasions I've seen that they create such problems, unless some edits are made in the terrain's _data.ini. Anyway we'll surely find a fix and Height Field smoothing is an option, but only when the terrain is complete. Keep up the good work, krfge!

  2. F-39A/B Griffin Blk 1/5 - Gripen NG for the US

    Menrva commented on dtmdragon's file in What If Hangar

    Interesting what if, especially because it is meant to replace the much hated F-35. And the 'F-39 Griffin' name is perfect!
  3. I use XnView, you can set the quality of the .jpg conversion and select all image files you want. The only downside is that once you select a folder, it selects all supported image files, so you may want to remove from the conversion list such image file formats (like .tga files etc.)
  4. Looking forward to it! Many thanks to you, Erik!
  5. I've discovered this video last year. I'm wondering if Maj. Tullia was ever interviewed about that day; that very same day other friendly aircraft were shot down.
  6. krfrge, you are doing a very impressive work with this terrain, I am amazed about the new tiles, that 4-tiles atoll looks just perfect. Keep up the good work and take all the time you need. @Wrench -As saisran said, that applies to me too. I am almost tempted to get that achievement too, just for fun.
  7. As he wrote, such statements are present in some campaign inis from SF2I.
  8. We all hope he is okay. Planes are expendable, but human life is not.
  9. Thanks for these nice tweaks and improvements, Crusader! It's like you are fixing some of the bugs that TK should have addressed in other patches, oh well..
  10. Wow, I'm amazed! I'm looking forward to it, I was hoping for new campaigns in the 1970s and 80s. Now I must buy a new stick, I can't play SF2 with a keyboard! My congratulations to the TSF team!

  11. Squad -new EA tactical fps

    Menrva replied to Stary's topic in The Bunker

    I didn't know that, it's a pity. I usually enjoy it in SP/Coop mode due to my bad internet connection, but it's boring after a while.

  12. Ace Combat 7 announced!

    Menrva replied to tonipm99's topic in General Flight Sim Discussion

    It shouldn't. According to Ace Combat Wikia, Ace Combat 7 (as the name/number implies) is the direct sequel of the main series, not a bad spin-off like Assault Horizon was.

  13. Squad -new EA tactical fps

    Menrva replied to Stary's topic in The Bunker

    Yeah, I bet it's very good. In fact it is the real successor to the Project Reality mod for good old Battlefield 2. Just google Project Reality, it is now a standalone game, you can download it and play for free, it uses the Battlefield 2 engine pushed to its limits, so it is a bit heavy on FPS, not as much as the new Squad game though (unfortunately my old PC can't handle Squad). And Project Reality, much like Squad, is in continuous development, but is a more finished product now (now it is currently v1.3.9). BTW, I said Squad is the successor of Project Reality because part of the team that developed PR is now developing Squad.
  14. Thank you, Wrench ;) Even if it isn't that nice, it will do the job. Terrain is progressing well, I really hope I can release something playable next year, it is needed.
  15. OK I'll take a look at it, I'll need to ask for permission to use it.
  16. When it is finished. Sorry for the short answer, but RL studies obliged me to stop working at it, however only Iran is left to do, Iraq is complete with all rivers, it just needs some eye candy such as more precise targets and bases. I'll re-post my previous questions since someone might have missed them; Do we have a 3d dam model? It is needed for targets such as the Mosul Dam and a few others. Does anyone have a reference map which contains all the main roads that I may need to add to the terrain? I re-made the whole set of road tiles, it would be a pity not to use them.

  17. Climate Conference - Age of Idiocracy ?

    Menrva replied to Snailman's topic in The Pub

    Well, of course they are trying to do something, but it's not going to be enough. The problem will be entirely on the shoulders of the future generations, mine included, so I almost wish to die young, cause I don't think the world will be a nice place when I'll be 60yr old. But Capitaine Vengeur has given us a list of many other problems which could bring humanity to an end sooner or later. Seriously, we've given too much power to Internet, now everything is done with Internet, what if Internet "disappears" someday? The economy goes down with it, as well our lives. Not to mention nuclear weapons, deterrent for direct war between superpowers, but only the heavens know for how long...
  18. What kind of video card do you have? nVidia or ATI? Such issues are known to happen with most of the latest nVidia drivers, however paulopanz showed some screenshots with the latest drivers released days ago (v359), and it seems that they fixed these kind of issues. Alternatively, revert your driver's version to 353, since it's the last known version which works flawlessly.

  19. Ace Combat 7 announced!

    Menrva replied to tonipm99's topic in General Flight Sim Discussion

    Thanks for posting, Ace Combat is my favourite game series. Just days ago I was looking for any info about AC7, looks like I had to wait a little longer. Assault Horizon was a bad spin-off, this one will be more like Ace Combat Infinity, that means classic AC dogfighting and no more on rails sections. I hope it will make it to PC too, but it's unlikely to happen I guess. So, Osea vs. Erusea? Cool but rather strange. It seems Mobius One couldn't stop the Eruseans for good! EDIT: I've just seen the trailer. If you listen closely at beginning you can hear a remixed version of the track "15 Years Ago" of Ace Combat 5.

  20. Prepare to pucker up your ummm, you'll find out

    Menrva replied to Fubar512's topic in The Pub

    I agree, if he was steering with a parachute I could have believed it, but being that precise in free-fall seems a little too much for me.
  21. Really? If it works for real, this is a very important find, I'm guessing this applies to every other .bmp related to radar functions.
  22. Holy... It's a big package, nice one, Viper! ATM I don't have DLC28. If I download your package without having the DLC, I won't be able to use which variants? As far as I know I shouldn't be able to fly the F-104A and the F-104C variants, am I right? Regarding what Dunois said, then you may think to make an alternative package where you use the old F-104A and F-104C models made by Ajundair, although those models are showing their age, with a revamp they could shine again. Anyway it's up to you, it's no request, Christmas is near, so we have to enjoy the free time! Take care, mate!
  23. Something better, don't use SweetFX anymore, it's a PITA to install to make it work with SF2. Check the following link instead, it's a thread I made time ago about a great and way better alternative called ReShade FX; http://combatace.com/topic/86862-reshadefx-a-great-alternative-to-sweetfx/ It's simpler to make it work in SF2 once you get used to its framework / menu. Moreover it does include lots of effects including those of Sweet FX. All in all it's an upgraded Sweet FX, let's say.
  24. Thanks for the question, I forgot to say in my previous post that I added, thanks to Crusader's help/info he gave me, the two Iraqi oil terminals, Al-Bakr and Al-Omayeh, pretty much in their RL location. However for the time being Al-Omayeh is jus a copy of the Al-Bakr terminal. In the future I'll make some changes to it.
  25. Damned RL made me stop at it for a while. I managed to complete most of Iraq, now it's time to move the the Iranian coastline and add the missing rivers there, then I'll have to add the road tiles. Below I included two screenshots with TFD Tool, Mosul is good enough, the Kirkuk area is not close to reality instead (due to the 63% size of TW stock terrains). Two question/requests: 1) Speaking of road tiles, does anyone have a map which contains all main roads that I may need to add to the terrain? 2) Do we have a dam model? It is needed for Mosul, and somewhere else too I think.
