NeverEnough

The Nvidia 310.90 WHQL video drivers were made available for download this morning at the following link: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us The earlier 310.70 video drivers caused some odd distortions on the outside surface of wing pylons in SF2. Hopefully these have a fix included. Enjoy!

Steam has DCS A-10C for $9.99 as a special flash sale which is good for another three hours only. If $15.99 was a deal, this would seem worthwhile! Happy New Year All!!!!

Hey Monty CZ: I still have all the files on this model from when I put together a FM for you last July. If I can be of any assistance, let me know!

It is a tough plane to fight in, but a very nice model and a great cockpit!

The best way to avoid patch headaches is to re-download all the titles you have purchased online from Thirdwire. You just need the authorization code from one of your prior purchases to access the fully patched, latest version of every title you have purchased. It really simplifies life! Just to be safe, you should probably download the latest DirectX redist package from Microsoft. The last one I have is dated June 2010.

For all you Nvidia video card users, the new Nvidia 310.54 BETA Video Drivers are available for download here: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx?lang=en-us They include a new version of PhsyX also.

These new ground objects look great! I would certainly install these as soon as you uploaded them.

Thanks again Stephen1918 for another terrific new model, and for your continued attention to detail.

For those Nvidia video card owners who want the latest 310.33 BETA video drivers, here's the link: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx?lang=en-us They also include a new version of PhysX. Enjoy!

Here's the first section of the Aircraft.ini file from the specific Aircraft folder in the Mods folder: [AircraftData] AircraftFullName=SEPECAT Jaguar GR Mk1a AircraftDataFile=JaguarGR_data.ini CockpitDataFile=JaguarGR_cockpit.ini HangarScreen=JagGR1_Hangar.jpg LoadingScreen=JagGR_Loading.bmp LoadoutImage=JagGR_loadout.bmp LoadoutFile=JaguarGR_loadout.ini AvionicsDLL=Avionics70.dll AvionicsDataFilename=JaguarGR_avionics.ini UserList=JaguarGR1A_USERLIST.ini Make sure the file name in the HangarScreen= and LoadingScreen= exactly matches the name of the loading or hangar screen you want to use. Also verify what format the loading screen or hangar screen is: .jpg or .bmp.

Wow, these Brand New Models of the Panther and Shooting Star are a huge step up from the old models! Kudos to all who contributed their time, effort and artistry. It is really amazing just how far you tatented people have taken this sim from what we had in the earlier years.

The employment situation in South Dakota is supposed to be terrific because of all the new oil and gas exploration. The different network evening news programs have all run segments on the difficulty businesses have had filling available positions of any level. It has turned into a latter day gold rush mentality. If you are thinking about taking a leap of faith, it might be worth researching further. P.S. Shooting stupid people won't make anything better....

I'm lucky I did not have a mouth full of coffee when I clicked on Jeanba's link! Well Said!!! CadeteBRA has posted a nice model of a really beautiful plane, and I know he will continue to tune and tweak it. Thanks for all your fine efforts!

For all the Nvidia video card owners, the brand new 306.23 WHQL video drivers are posted for download at the following link: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us Enjoy!

The original Insky LOD is dated 11-16-08. This is a newer LOD and comes with higher resolution skins then the original Insky J-10A.

Hey Julhelm, it would be great if you uploaded your custom tiles. I always look forward to your projects.

For those of you who feel that "everybobody's bugging out", take a look at the really amazing mods released over the last couple weeks and available in the downloads section right here! Terrains, cockpits, campaigns, makeovers of older classic models (Russouk's beautiful P-47N!), Fast Cargo's lovely Arrow, and more! These mods are not amateurish efforts, but real quality professional level additions to the StrikeFighters world. The level of quality in the mods being released recently is as good as it has ever been, and that trend appears to promise even better things for the future. This is why the Thirdwire sims have held so many of our attention spans far longer than we reasonably expected. TK's "lite sim" has provided many extremely talented individuals with a blank canvas to make some truly amazing contributions.

Does anyone else find this statement verging on insanity? His age and physical condition weren't considered significant factors in the crash, but Hersman was critical of Leeward's record-keeping and reports of the modifications that he had made. "He put that he was 59 years old on the entry form," the board chairwoman said. "He was 74." In Formula 1 auto racing, you are considered washed up after about age 35. The physical and mental demands of flying 530 mph at tree top level would certainly seem to be far greater than the g-loads experienced by a Formula 1 driver.

Nvidia put the 306.02 BETA video drivers up for download this morning. They are available at this link: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx?lang=en-us The WHQL version they released last week were only for the new 660 video card. The 306.02 BETA will work for all recent Nvidia video cards.

Change this line in the HUDDATA.INI to FALSE: [Debug] DisplayDebug=TRUE It is located in the FLIGHT Folder.

The seat line Wrench provided: SeatModelName=seat_f-104 should be inserted in the F-104S_DATA.INI under the Pilot section. [Pilot] SystemType=PILOT_COCKPIT Position=0.00,6.68,0.56 SeatModelName=seat_f-104 SeatPosition=0.00,6.65,0.13 MinExtentPosition=-0.25, 6.06,-0.14 MaxExtentPosition= 0.25, 7.19, 0.82 CanopyNodeName=canopy_mid_outer CanopyAnimationID=5

Staight from the Readme File: Installation: First, backup these files, if present in you Flight folder: ENVIRONMENTSYSTEM.INI LENSFLARE_DIAMOND.TGA LENSFLARE_STAR.tga STAR.tga STR_CLOUDS.tga STR_CLOUDS2.tga STR_CLOUDS3.tga SUN.TGA To install extract this package to your main mods folder, if asked overwrite. These all go in the Flight Folder in your Mods folder for each installed game: i.e. StikeFighters2: StrikeFighter2 Europe: StrikeFighters2 Vietnam: StrikeFighters2 Israel.

SSD prices have fallen off a cliff lately. BH Photo had a Sandisk Extreme 240G SATAIII drive today for $159.99! This is a very reliable and incredibly fast SSD. This drive would make the Velociraptor mechanical drive look like a paperweight in comparison. Despite the huge performance advantage current generation SSD's have, they are not supposed to improve gaming performance to the degree one would expect.
