SayethWhaaaa

What?! They fixed that?? I might dig it out and dust it off... I like the idea of being able to mod the weapons.

Apparently, if downloaded anywhere but North America, South Africa, Oz or NZ you get the error message "ErrorCode = PI, 30022". Which is interesting since the game is produced in South Korea.

She's gonna be sh*tting bricks about this when she gets back! A buddy of mine were going to attempt to make a modernised Skyraider in our dwindling free time. I think this would be a good design to emulate, sans the wingtip tanks... and maybe an 8 blade prop.

Yeah, once I was able to update the weapons.dat, it worked a charm for me.

Might have figured out this whole "Lock phasers and fire" thing...

No, they said F-13s, whatever they are. Not Mig-21s.

Yeah, I feel more confident about what JSF_Aggie has to say about it than someone like Denis Jensen. It's a no brainer.

Take it easy Stubbs!

Nice snap!

Everyone's taking the F-13=Mig-21 to heart a bit. I was just taking the p*ss. I think they meant F-16 and it was a keypad typo. Still, stealth or not, I think comparing F-35s to Su-30s is a bit of a waste of time as their operational profiles (along with their systems, ordinance, pilot training, etc) is going to have a large bearing on how they are going to fare against each other. I mean, lightweight aircraft and heavy aircraft are going to be able to perform similar roles, but the way they're applied is going to be quite different (especially with the RAAF's penchant for low level, scattered penetration). The F-35s will do the job nicely and the SuperBugs will be able to provide an effective top cover against the Sukhois, if ever they met (I've got more of a chance of hooking up with Tina Fey!). F-15Es would do it better for around the same cost, but here we are. I'd say this "are the F-35s worthy" debate here is akin to asking what's 'best' between the F-4 Phantom and the A-4 Skyhawk. Both are good at what they do, they just do it differently. We simply don't need the F-22, even if the US would sell it to us. It's just fear mongering by the uninformed. Unfortunately, that includes the Senate as well.

That's what used to screw me with the copying over weapons packs from WOI to the others in the past. I forgot to update the weapons.dat.

Now I need you to ask for Jessica Alba to knock on my front door!! Yeah, I was pretty stoked to see the patches when I logged on this morning!

I think a certain Mr. Jensen was getting his arse kicked at Ace Combat and had a bit of a dummy spit. Unfortunately, this is the caliber of parliamentarians who are consulted in defense issues here, and more unfortunately, are listened to. Not to pick on his party (the former government) as the ALP has been making mistakes too, but his was the party who thought it was okay to go ahead and acquire the SuperBug without the need for any competitive tender at all. The current government continued said mistake. Still, it's bugging me. How the hell did they come up with F-13??

The Liberals are conservatives here... Has that done your head in?

It's about 2:15 on the eastcoast of Australia right now. And Australian journos are renowned for their substance abuse problems. I'm gonna chalk it up to that. Seriously though, if this report were true, how is it only he seems to have the reports of the F-35 getting boned during this mythical exercise? No other agencies? Denis Jensen is a well known F-22 proponent through and through. He simply does not believe that anything but the F-22 should be bought, even if it means we retire our Pigs, Hornets, Orions, Hurcules, Hawks, Globmasters, etc so we can afford at least 20 of them. I think it's just an extension of his agenda. Plus, Liberal party back benchers are a bit special in the head...

http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2008/09/22/2371412.htm Um... huh?! There are several questions that arise from this: What's an F-13? (Czech Mig-21s??) Are F-13s flying at Red Flag? "F-35s were being outperformed by Russian aircraft..." so there are production model F-35s operating now? Since when areF-35s are performing at Red Flag? It's a shame, the ABC is normally a very good news agency.

Happy birthday lads!

By the way, that's exactly what's going to happen Luiz. The previous games will be patched up to the current standard (or is it up to the next WOI patch?). Either way, after the next patch, the entire series should be at the same patch standard. As for when, I couldn't tell you I'm afraid.

What's this story about Ubisoft looking to buy the license for the TW series?? Wings Over: Global Conflict?? Check out the article here.

Heh, me too, although it's invariably one of my wingmen who's miles away getting shot at! Tomcat, do you mean like the warning system in Jet Fighter: Full Burn where your defensive suite identifies and warns you of what type of AAM (IR or AH/SAHM) is fired at you?

Must be a yank thing. They seem to crash into water here. Then again, a lot of our airports are on or spitting distance from waterfronts.

Heard about this last night. Pretty nasty...

The hardpoints and model specific launch rails aren't transferable, but some of the racks can be, ie, the APU_62 2IR rack. I think it's only MER,TER and the twin racks or whatever is in the weapons directory.

"5'7"?? I DIDN'T KNOW THEY STACKED S**T THAT HIGH!"

Oddly enough, I get that same problems with the Yak-141, not the Mirage 2000D. Does the Mirage level out when you let the controls go dead?
