Oh yeah, i accidentally got the F-14_IR to loose control. I was against an F-15A and i was inside its turn but the nose is a bit high. the panel on the left says im at 198knts. i pulled in harder and increased power then suddenly my plane started leveling on its own. i pulled left rudder to roll and bring the nose down when it lost control and went to a flat spin. The f-15 fired his winders but most misses. i managed to regain control just before i crashed, i hugged the ground to prevent him from hitting me with the sparrows he fired all of them and i managed to escape. at this at this point i had enough as i grew impatient once again. after getting some distance i climbed up and after some manouvering i got behind it abuot 3 miles back i let a a sparrow loose then a winder for good measure. the winder hits. and revenge!

I was fully loaded 4 phoenix, 2 aim7 and 2 aim9 just dropped the tank on engagement. i was behind the 21 all the time but u couldn't get a clear gun. got frustrated and impatient. I overshoot and lost sight pulled up to take the loop all this time i forgot to release the airbrakes and lost all airspeed. so i was basically falling while i was looking for it. the fishbed was positioned nicely for guns. I just suck at using guns. i can't even get a good gun solution using the F-8 although i can stay glued to any bandits six even an F-15 with an F-8

Uhm, are this paint scheme available for DL?

No need to add the flat spin. I was just a wee bit curious. I like the stable tomcat since i really suck at doing manouver i may not be able to recover it most of the time. thanks for the info. Waiting to read your DACT reports. I just realized how difficult it is to fly in SF when everything set to hard. I lost to a Fishbed. then comes back carrying 4 Phoenix and let them loose. Revenge was so sweet!

If i hit the lotto i'm gonna commission you guys to produce our own game. Problem is i never join the lottery. :P

Nice flying Ceasar! Those reports are really exciting As for me i can't really get a good gun solutions most of them are lucky shots while the rest i run out of bullets. i have better results with missiles though. although those stealth planes can only be hit by Aim-9s. Need to learn proper manouvering with the tomcat. 2 question. Is the new Fm for the tomcat makes it impossible to get it into a flat spin? kept trying to get it out of control but it remains stable all the time. 2nd question is a bit off topic. Thanks for sending me the file btw. what control the ground image on the VDI? the one that scrolls as the plane moves along. managed to get the SF2 pit working with the tcs in the right place. Missile counter, bank and pitch working on the VDI for SF1 except that one. Im really excited to read your next DACT.

Oh bummer, that excuse is so stupid. Let it be pirated and then go "apple".. might make them more money. Really love this game, the game is fun and the community is so helpful that it enhances the value of the product. whatever happens it'll still be the only flight sim for me and i know you and the a lot of guys here won't bail out on it. then someday things will work it self out. TW may have a change of heart or something. regardless i believe modders will persevere.

Im really interested in what the tomcat can do r how you guys will handle it against 5th generation (F-22 F-35) or Fictional fighters (KF2 hammer and talon). :P

I'm not a computer whiz so i don't really understand all this encoding stuff but i remember that someone was able to make a cat. extractor for SF1. My question is... is it really impossible to Unlock all the locked files without TW's permission? If he's intent on keeping it that way can he really stop all the geniuses on this site?

how bout one for the F-14? Sept, Oct, Nov, Dec?

you're mod's are always pretty so im downloading it now. thanks

Changing the targets ini, i think i can do that i just have to copy the airfields from something like Europe right? but the retiling i dont know how to do that. as well as adding populated places. argh. maybe harder than i thought.

I saw your post about changing the borderlimit on the Flightengine.ini then try to experiment in changing the runway in XXTarget.ini. now im able to fly mission using modern fighters on the Philippine Map. Now im gonna peruse Knowledgebase to know how to build a campaign. there's a lot i want to know like "if i want to put this object on this specific part of the map and so on". thanks man, That borderlimit change you posted helped a lot. works for both 1st and 2nd gen.

ah that. i was just checking what would happen if i leave them there. can't wait on the next update. Thanks the help you and wrench provided my with.

Just experimented with the camera. well they also work nice with the A button. I just need to trim the setting for best result on manual landing. Right now i got the CameraAngles=0.0,-85.0,0.0 and CameraFOV=80.000000. I got some screens but do excuse the image quality. a nice view of the CAT's rail <br style="color: rgb(28, 40, 55); font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; background-color: rgb(250, 251, 252); ">its nice to actually see the carrier when landing How come the AI makes it look easy? lolz! Thanks a bunch guys! oh yeah. I tried to make a separate mode for the landing camera by adding a different entry in the data.ini and avionics.ini. but it seems that you have to have another instrument in the cockpit. however there's seems to be a fixed set of instrument so it didn't work. Is my assumption correct or is it possible to add a separate camera mode?

That's just being lazy. i bet you guys could pull it off. make the fuze sensors and then post it on his site just to shove it in.

Its nice to know that im no alone. i can get on the boat after several pass (Thanks to the guys answering my inquiry on landing techniques) although i wont make it into the navy. And this place does beat school in the bunch of stuff you can learn.

Wrench, nice one wrench I'll also try this one. you guys. How come you can do this things and i can't?

Whoa! thanks SupGen. this helps me out a lot. This is one of the reason i love this community. thanks!

I see. so that' i can't make it work. I was hoping i could make a landing camera out of it. Guess i have to make do with TW ILS. I'll just try to make it work on the MF model. Thanks.

I tried to change the value of the pitch before i posted but i cant seem to get it to point at least 30deg down from a horizonal plane. iguess the numbers i'm using is too big for the game. is there a value limit? like if i want a camera pointing straight down what's the value? Anyway im gonna experiment some more. thank you very much!

I'm going to embarrass my self by posting another question? It seems that i really can't do things on my own and has to rely on you guys. Well, you know that some model have a camera mode like the TCS on MF F-14. I was wondering if its possible to change the angle of view on this camera like making them face downward? so even if your flying level or your nose is raised up your still given a view of the ground underneath. If possible a detail list of what to do please. Thanks in advance.

Whew! after several attempt. Finally able to trap. The first time i thought i aint gonna catch anything. and forced the plane to drop. it dropped really hard but atleast im on the ship...kinda. The 2nd time i got the plane aboard was more like diving in the deck. my angle is very low im surprised i caught the wires at all. Although i won't call my landings acceptable (The navy would probably throw me off the ship) atleast im not crashing to the back of the boat anymore. im just missing the wires or im not parallel to the ship. funny thing on this pic. i got aboard just as another squad was leaving. im thinking in real life my ass would be chewed. Thanks for all your help. I'm gonna practice some more.

Thanks a bunch! Romflyer- thats gonna help me a lot of the TW's F-14 and FallenPhoenix- Gonna be taking your advice and practice on it once i get back! not a bad idea on the game pad Arthur. might just try that one first.
