OK i just got started working on the next radar tutorial...this one is the terrain avoidance radar.Anybody with any input is more than welcome to let me know.

EXACTLY!! Looks sweet!

Marc has one on his site.

check your settings..in HARD settings you shouldn't have the lock diamond on your target....and the action view is the view that looks like you're sitting on top of the canopy.

Thanks! looks great!

DK,What you've done is very good and definatly step in the right direction! My hats off to you... As for the peolpe worring about the MP part..sooner or later somebody would have figure this out and they would have change the same file you did,not to improve the game but for their own gains.You have worked to make the FMs alot closer to the real deal,so don't let anybody tell ya different.It is a big improvement and it is appriciated. I wish I could find an A-4,or F-100 driver to talk to them and see what they think...would help alot.Mig drivers might be a bit difficult to find in Virginia these days. :D I'll keep trying anything you post to help.Thanks for all the hard work again.Keep it up.

OK heres a in game screen shot: http://www.accesscable.net/~vaxmcpl/A6.jpg I'll keep yall posted on progress as they post it.

Well it's Sunday evening and I can't get anything from HL? keep getting a message host not found!What a time to have it go down!

I was flying a CAS mission and after I had my wingman drop tanks and cover me I got a "You got one on your 6"call I turned,lite the burners switched to AtoA mode and locked up a mig 21...I had a really bad angle and called for my wingman to attack my target..and believe it or not he rogered the call and the next thing I heard was a "Fox 2"call as he fired and took him out!! I'm still in shock!So I guess they will attack from time to time.

hey they must have had a MARINE pilot drop that..it hit the target!! :D :D

I think the action view is like a camera mounted on the top of the cockpit.As for the radar...the yellow DIAMOND IS FOR EASY AND NORMAL modes...hard mode you get no diamond..it's kind of a guessing game for who you have locked up,if your wingman is in front of you it could get ulgy fast.as for the views..might try reassigning them to different keys.

alot has to do with your settings..if you have it set for HARD then you don't get a yellow box...this could be bad if your wingman is ahead of you,but the boresight mode works good if you have the bandit off your nose.Search mode is best for early warning,finding the enemy,and watching your A.O.,as you know situational awarness is what keeps you alive.also remember there is a range factor to keep in mind...just because you lock a target up and paint and bracket him doesn't mean he's in missile range.and if you think he's to close for the sparrow,make a fast switch to sidewinders.

OK looks like the new terrain will be coming along soon!look at the screen shots!http://dzeng.ecorp.net/

Hey Deuces...Thanks your work was worth the wait!keep it up...hows about a Vietnam tile set?you know mountains and valleys..the works. :D I know it's easy to ask for... so why not ask all you can do is hunt me down and kill me like the dog I am. Great work!

PC try this..make your turn and final approach from a VERY low level...take off flaps,or even no flaps,and come in at an airspeed of around 100-120kts. as soon as you get over the end of the runway cut your throttle and flair..on touch down apply brakes.This is the way I've found works best,at least for me.

I tried it also..got rid of it fast!!(same day).what a waste of what could have been a truely great sim! :roll:

I know most of yall know how to do this but I was reading a few other forums and I found alot of guys were having trouble. So for those of you who are having trouble heres the simplist way to do it. after you downloaded the new file,this is my way,make a new folder(for now just leave it as new folder) and unzip your new skin into it. now lets say it's a F-4B skin so lets cut and paste the new folder into your Objects/aircraft/F-4B folder,almost there...now open the nwe folder and look at the read me that comes with it VERY IMPORTANT PART HERE look at the read me and you'll see a part that looks like this: [TextureSet00X] Directory=USMCvmfa232 Name=USMC VMFA-232 Red Devils Nation=USMC Squadron=VMFA232 Specular=0.30 Glossiness=0.75 Reflection=0.00 copy this and open the ini file in the F-4b folder and add paste it there.on the top you see where it says [Texture Set00X] now just change the X for the next texture number.Now Look at the Directory look at the name there and the easiest way is to copy it and change the name on your new folder to that,if not write it downEXACTLYlike it is in the file and change the name of your folder to that. Fire up the game and once you decide on a mission type and get to the hanger screen in the load out area in the paint scheme drop down you'll find your new colors! Also if you want to add a new squadron in your Pilotdata folder open the squadron ini. file and if your new paint had it in the read me copy the part for the new squadron to it.It'll look like this: [squadronXXX] Name=VMFA232 DisplayName=VMFA-232 Red Devils Nation=USMC Once again just change the XXX to the next number.

it's 8 est. and I still can't connect to it..not even to the the HL web page.darn.

Not sure if this is the right forum(I'll post it in the mod forum also) but I would like to add some static aircraft on airfields,wonder if theres a way to add them?I'm looking at the files and would I just add them to the BMPs? or can someone just add a few lines to an ini. file?
