  1. A way to make a cabriolet

    Wow - Is that a Tornado IDS? - so much for flimsy western manufacturing :)

  5. Dennis Ritchie died

    Aw no - most of todays computing is built on Unix and C (and its descendents C++/c#/Java) Linux came out of Unix(Minix) MAC OSX is based on BSD Unix - and so are the iPhone iPad Operating Systems C++ - well most of Windows is built with that - and Linux/Unix on C and C++ - and so's Falcon 4 from what Ive read :) Respect to a great pioneer and true Genius
  6. The recent B-57 Canberra units in Vietnam has the RAAF B.mk20s using 8 x WW2 era 500LB box fin bombs (with photos) - thats 2 on the wingtip rack mod racks and 6 in the bomb bay. This was a standard load until they were used up - then they used 6 x M-117s as the standard loadout - 4 in the bomb bay and 2 on the wingtip racks. The B.mk20 is pretty much a B.mk2 bomber only, whereas the B-57A although it looks like the B.mk2 has few changes including multiple underwing hardpoints.
  7. Truly amazing work again Dels - congratulations and many thanks :drinks: :drinks:
  8. Someone added airframe braces - nice
  9. Virus strikes US's UAVs.

    Systems seemed to have always failed quite a lot in Vietnam and other conflicts in the past without viruses - and it would be more painful without steam gauges to back you up. The tech maybe more reliable but it still fails anyway! And if those other systems fail due to a virus you can still stand a chance of flying out of there - which is better than no chance at all - you can fly past all the virus infected UAV s as they fall to the ground
  10. Virus strikes US's UAVs.

    Even without a virus we cant always predict what software does due to some unknown flaw - a few have just decided to fly off by themselves into a mountain ive seen reported. Problem is the budget could never be large enough to allow the amount of testing required to make them reliable enough - the bugs just have to get ironed out over the years like with any software. Re the BSG analogy - you would have to be pretty stupid to allow the internal FLCS to be compromised through a data link interface or allow any remote control - it should be completely isolated in a manned jet so the only way a virus could get on there is if the pilot gets tricked into loading it on a DTC - and even then it really shouldn't be compromised. Anyway the real problem with drones IMO is actually getting a strong enough signal to the drone!
  11. Burglars Beware

    Pretty much what I feel regarding this
  12. Steve Jobs

    the products are far from perfect - I suppose the idea and style over content are what sells them. To add to the above - one thing on my iPhone 4 - as a pocket PC its great - as a phone its absolutely useless so I dont recommend one - poor reception and pathetic battery endurance - I have a Sony Ericsson which is 4 years older and its just far superior - even has a better camera. And if you are thinking you can carry a spare battery - well errrr....cant replace it easily - so in most cases its a sealed unit all the way to landfill - really have to question that one.
  13. 10 Years Ago Today

    .
  14. There are some - not that many - most around the capital from what I remember. One thing to check is whether any of the stock SAMs actually have service dates to the year you are playing in. Adding more SAMs might be a data.ini edit - unless the campaign customiser can help.
  15. Steve Jobs

    The Bill Gates of Apple - able to package other people inventions into products that appealed to the masses. Apple really got ahead of the game over the other tech giants like Sony in the mobile business where they had no right to be - and Jobs really turned around a sinking ship after going back there. The recent products particularly the iPhone 4 which is pretty much a pocket PC are wonderful (especially the touch interface) and everyone else has being playing catch up. RIP
  16. Another Great Ace passes away...

    RIP
  17. can only think a control file was installed with the downloads Is F2 and F3 mapped correctly in the control setup?
  18. What reunites the Worlds Religions?

  19. You can - then you will need to alter the campaign files manually to account for skin name changes and loadouts.
  20. Looks like the canopy now has a different tint and shines - very nice haha nice of you to wake them up
  21. Al-Awlaki Killed

    Seeya!!
  22. Blackburn Buccaneer Released for SF2

    Truly amazing - very well done and many thanks
  23. B-17 The Mighty 8th on GoG

    Ive got the mighty 8th sitting on my shelf in this package:
  24. OT FSX and TrackIR 5

    With the V5 software you can set up a profile and define the exact keys you want to use for centering etc in the Track IR program then save it and allocate it to a game - or you can just alter the default profile if everything is using that. There are a few ways the program will minimise itself - you will see these in the Track IR options. You should have a propellor icon by the clock in the system tray (not the same as the desktop one) - make sure its not hiding itself by default because you have windows set up this way. If you are minimising TrackIR to the system tray you need to right click on this propellor icon and choose Minimise/Maximise to Tray. To shut the camera down right click on the icon and select Exit - you shouldn't be pulling out the usb connector or using task manager at all! If the camera loses the deflective dots - um assuming you are not getting interference from a reflected light source? this has to be handled by the Game. For example Falcon BMS has a key combo to start TIR if you forgot to.
  25. Happy Birthday Brain32!

    Have a great day
