Dagger

Majorlee and friends released the Korean terrain..very nice add-on.get it HERE

You'll need the weapons editor...I believe it's available here in the downloads section.

Steel beasts 2 is in the works from what I hear...better graphics,and more options of tanks to drive.and I will look to see if I can find a copy of this sim.Panzer elite is another great tank sim

First let me welcome you to the Biohaz family..good to see fresh faces always. First is this a fresh install into the default location?WoV doesn't like installs into other places.if it is a fresh install..uninstall,I mean completely uninstall it..including any folders that were left over.now a nice fresh install and the patch should go in fine..if not let me know.also do you have any mods installed?but i think it's a install issue judging from the problem being with the exe. try a fresh install with no mods into teh default location.

well I could see the problem right away..a swabbie trying to do some ground pounding...bad mix there Chief. ok...back to quarters...

How do I get SDOE to recognise my throttle?It works fine with my stick but not the throttle.anybody got a profile for this?or can anybodyt just tell me how to get it to work?

Thanks !!!! now get back to work on my N28!!! Hope you had a Great Christmas!

The carriers are in the campains..not in single missions yet.sorry

Chief..my deepest and heart felt condolences to you and your family.

you are rolling now...well done!I hope you and the entire JT team have a GREAT and wonderful Christmas.

I would like to take a moment to wish ALL the Biohazcentral family a very joyous and safe Christams.I hope everyone gets all the"toys"they want. From Dagger and my family to you and yours..MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

I got a new channel package on my cable and one of the channels is Fox Sports World...as a Soccer(football)fan I have a new favorite channel! lots of games from alot of different leagues.and add rugby to that and wow!my advice to anybody that can get the package!!

Weasel...I'd be thanking my cable company for that..now you can watch the CAPITALS play!

A new update for Battlefield Vietnam is now available and all official servers have moved to this new version. The update addresses an undisclosed exploit that was reported by a community member. You can download the update here BF:V update

================================================================== Battlefield Vietnam v1.2 Read Me File August 9, 2004 ================================================================== KNOWN ISSUES AND WORKAROUNDS -- 1.2 Patch and WW2 Mod - If you have not installed the WW2 mod, It is important to install the 1.2 patch after installing the WW2 mod. If the WW2mod is installed after the 1.2 patch, the WW2 mod will not function properly. To resolve this issue install patch 1.2 again after you installed ww2 mod. -- Using Geforce FX5200 type cards with high or highest graphics setting in Saigon 1968 may cause problems on some systems with unpredictable behaviors on player input due to low frame rates. To resolve this issue change the graphics setting to low or medium. NEW CONTENT AND FEATURES -- 3 new maps in Patch 1.2: -- Operation Cedar Falls is a new map that introduces tunnels to BFV. Minimap changes when inside tunnels, and teammate icons only appear if they are on the minimap the player is currently viewing (ie above ground or tunnels). Tunnel flags appear in the minimap as vertical flags, differentiating them from the regular horizontal flag. -- Saigon 1968. Based during the Tet Offensive, the NVA have tunneled into the Saigon Sewer system in an effort to overtake the Presidential Palace. -- Fall of Saigon. It's spring 1975, and the NVA are moving quickly to attack Saigon as the USA is finishing the final evacuations from Vietnam. -8 vehicles are new in Patch 1.2: -- The A1 Skyraider in 2 versions; one for anti-infantry (MGs and napalm), and the other for anti-vehicle attacks (bombs and missiles). -- The Ontos is a new USA tank that can fire 1 round from it's 6 cannon sequentially, or it can empty all 6 at once. -- The BRDM Malyutka Complex is an NVA amphibious vehicle that fires wire-guided missiles. Once fired, the player camera is attached to the missile. The control is similar to an airplane. Right-clicking will detonate the missile. -- Quad 0.50 MG is a static machine gun emplacement with 4 powerful cannons. A 360 degree rotation and a thick bullet shield make it a great option for clearing the skies of enemy targets. -- T-72 is a heavy NVA tank. The driver fires tank shells with primary fire, and shoots a machine gun as secondary fire. The gunner fires the canopy machine gun with primary fire, and shoots out smoke grenades with secondary fire. -- AC-47 Gunship. Heavy transport/gunship with coaxial chain guns out the left side. The pilot can drop bombs with primary fire. -- M35A1 Nancy. A flatbed truck with a Quad 0.50 MG mounted in the back, an M60 facing to the front, and a couple armed passengers for good measure. -- BM21 Troop Transport. A BM21 truck with armed passenger positions filling the back. -Mobile spawn points have been added to the 3d map. -Unique colors for individual buddies. Once a buddy has been added to the buddylist.con (located in the settings\profiles\profile_name folder), that file can be edited manually to adjust the RGB value of the individual buddies. The unique color will appear in the mini-map, 3d map, and for text, and death messages. For instance, game.addPlayerToBuddyListByName "Player" 255.0 155.0 0.0 = Red® 255.0, Green(G) 155.0, Blue(B) 0.0 --> an Orange buddy icon. -Spectator Mode. -- Server must be setup to allow spectators to join. If Spectator Mode is allowed, players can become spectators by clicking the spectate button on the in game side bar. The player can return to teamplay by selecting the team button on the side bar and then selecting a team to join. **WARNING** by becoming a spectator a player forfeits his points and will be forced to wait before being allowed to return to teamplay. The wait time is set in the server interface. -- Spectators see the health of all players or the health of the vehicle that the player is in They receive all CP change warnings, regardless of team and even if that option has been disabled for players. Spectators see CP timers when they are within the capture radius, or when they are using the associated CP camera. -- Players do not see spectators on the 3d or mini-map, but they do appear on the Scoreboard. Here they are treated as regular players, with full buddy capabilities. -- Spectators have full voting privileges if the server allows for spectator voting. -- Spectator Mode Controls: Use Space Bar to cycle through the 4 camera types, or use the associated Function key. Free Camera (F9), Team 1 Chase Camera (F10), Team 2 Chase Camera (F11), and Control Point Camera (F12). Use 'C' to cycle forward through the cameras of a particular type, and 'X' to cycle backwards. Spectators can not view the spawn interface, but they can view the mini-map and scoreboard using the regular controls. Free Camera is not allowed in the tunnels; only chase cameras and the CP camera may be used. -- Remapping Spectator Controls: If you wish to remap spectator controls, you must remap the function already using that key. For example, you must remap Jump (Space Bar) to remap the 'Cycle Camera Type' control.

http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/elitewar...ws_6114736.html looks like a cool fps!

Welcome to Biohaz...Sorry for the trouble.I'm morking on that very problem myself..the only way I can lock a radar is make sure you're being painted at the time of launch...your RWR will be going crazy,and I turn of my ECM,if so equiped.once I launch then I turn ECM back on.sometimes this works.will let you know more as I find out.

CRONGRATS to you and the wife..I hope everyone is fine.This will be a Christmas to remember for you,and your new pilot trainie!!

Thanks for the heads up..and as usual great work.

I would say so...the only reason I suggested it was that you could get everyone from the old Open plane forums to start coming around...I'm reinstalling FS and downloading the files now...atleast enough to get me to standard.Oh yeah..hows my N28 with 95th Aero skin coming along..remember?

way to go you old sea dog....remember to scrape the barnicals from time to time.

Thanks for the thought..the poem was very nice and much appriciated.I hope your time in China goes well...may the wind be at your back! oh yeah..if you can post some pics.

GREAT NEWS!! may I make a suggestion...why not let MJ host host all the files here.atleast the ones to get you up to on-line standard?I mean from the patch,the wings patch and the plane packs.as well as some of the terrains and hi res skins.just a thought.

Thats so funny...

I just thought I'd pass this along to you guys as I watched a show on Discovery Wings on the A-4.The pilots said the early models had their ECM suites in their bellies and they were told not to fire their cannons as this could cause damage to the electronics.It was a very interesting show.little"scooter"was a work horse in the skys of Vietnam.not sure what model was used in the era of this sim but just wanted to let you know.
