  1. disk cleanup utility disappeared

    Go start - then type "cleanup" into the search box - disk cleanup will appear (well it does on 7) if not there is a much longer way
  2. So you are deleting the stock folders but the game keeps putting them in each time you run it?
  3. thanks to combatace

    Glad to have you here
  4. He must have seen the Red Tails trailer and got carried away

  6. TK doesnt think DX9 will render the sea and other bits properly if at all ndicki dont you mention you only have 1.5GB of RAM?
  7. Note the F-14 radar write up in the Manual folder (note the symbols for IFF) Using the Radar on F-14A F-14A carries the AWG-9 radar, the most powerful radar of its time. The radar was desgined specifically for fleet defense, and when used with the AIM-54 Phoenix missiles, it can engage up to 6 enemy bombers at once at range of almost 100 miles. There is no raw radar display in the pilot's cockpit, instead, there is TID (Tactical Information Display), which shows not only the target detected by the radar, but also all the targets detected by nearby airborne early warning aircraft. There are three selectable modes available: Search (Range-While Scan, or RWS), Track-While-Scan (TWS), and Air Combat (Vertical Scan Lock-on, or VSL) modes. Single Target Track (STT) mode is entered by the radar system when a target track is established. All radar modes display the same top-down, birds-eye view of the battlespace in front of the aircraft, up to 400 miles display range. Search Mode Search mode has the widest search volume and fastest search time, but only shows minimum information regarding targets. Target can be designated using the "Next/Previous radar target" keys, and the "Acquire selected target" key can be used to transition to STT mode unless AIM-54 missile is currently selected, in which case the radar will switch to TWS mode instead. Track-While-Scan (TWS) Mode TWS mode displays additional information about the currently selected target and is used for engaging multiple targets simultaneously with the AIM-54 missiles. Radar in TWS mode scans slightly smaller volume than in Search mode, and radar elevation is automatically centered on the currently highlighted target. Different targets can be selected using the "Next/Previous radar target" keys. When the AIM-54 is selected, up to 6 targets may be designated using the "Acquire selected target" key. When the first target is designated, a number "1" appears next to the target. And each time a different target is designated (by hitting the "Next/Previous radar target" to go to next target and then hitting the "Acquire selected target" again), next number in sequence is assigned ("2", "3", "4", etc), up to the number of AIM-54 currently carried. When an AIM-54 is fired, it automatically aims to the next target (designated "1") and the sequence is cycled down by one (so "2" now becomes "1", "3" becomes "2", etc) for the next missile, allowing the pilot to fire all 6 missiles at 6 different targets at once. When other weapons are selected, the "Acquire selected target" key switches to STT mode instead. Single Target Track (STT) Mode STT mode displays the all the same information as the TWS and is used to guide the AIM-7 radar-guided missiles. While in this mode, the radar does not search for any new targets, but new targets can still show up on TID if detected by the airborne early warning aircraft. Auto Acquisition Mode Radar in Auto Acquisition mode scans straight ahead and vertically from 0 to 40 deg above the boresight line. It automatically locks on to the first target it encounters in its vertical search arc, and switches to STT mode.
  8. Might be something to do with the noisenormal terrain bmp if it still uses that - because changing mine on older terrains chopped FR and made the ground shimmer - but also made the ground more detailed - probably need a better gfx card now.

  10. AvionicsDLL=AvionicsF14A.dll
  11. Yes new F-14 seems a bit sluggish in the roll above M1
  12. Running standalone MAP is black on mine - but zooming in will get the proper coloring. Yes the controls page is porked - the description doesnt match the control - but this only starts at some point down the page - have had to guess what to change. Assume "Vampire" call from Hawkeye is when the bombers launch missiles Iceland terrain - nice IMO - but I think the noisenormals just been bumped up due to the land shimmer I get. F-14 RWR wont pick up certain SAMs - might be out of frequency or something. My E-2C seems to fly over the Russian fleet until shot down - can still hear his voice though so assume he bails out and resumes from rubber dingy bombers are hard to take down with all their counter measures - nice challenge - not betting an AIM-4 would score any hits with that amount of chaff. Good selection of advanced Mig-23s Different music Cloud, viewlist and huddata have been added only so far.
  13. Don't want to miss this....

    Happy Birthday Sony
  14. A little better graphics ? Please

    BMS is the way to go these days: http://combatace.com/topic/67422-dark-falcon-released/
  15. Riiight...

    I'm sure their word is good this time
  16. F-4EJ probably - nice skin work!
  17. If you are on a recent SF2 patch you need to download it from Thirdwires site
  18. Sea Harrier Over The Falklands

    A brilliant read - hes a great character! In 82 the SHARs had no hope of intercepting the Super Etendards launching Excorcets from the mainland anyway - lucky they only had 5 of the air launched missiles or the fleet would have had to retire - thats one reason F-4Ks were needed with an airbourne AEW and lookdown capability.
  19. At a guess about 1974 to 1988 by default - but this can probably be changed anyway Probably wont include passive IR detection

  21. A very thought provoking Video

    I would put money on Man Utd winning it as well - people have been saying how bad Man Utd are for about the past 6 years - yet they are still at the top and still look very strong 95% of the time.
