towed decoys :) - you might have to do it like the refueling drogues on the A-4/A-6/A-3s in Yankee Air Pirate??

Nice one TMF - superb work on these babies!

thar she is - looking ace!!!

That should sort out those flippin birds

Find your advanced settings on the graphics card - and I cant speak for ATI cards but you should be able to set up a profile for WOE/WOV etc etc blah in each profile you should be able to up the anti-aliasing and anisotropic filtering - which will make a difference - you will need to experiment to find the best settings though - to much of the above will slow you right down!! as for issues with ATI cards try a search basically unless someone here can advise - its likely you should get non shimmering trees with ATI cards??

Yes one was in the works years back - but it hasnt been released to the public yet.

maybe a typo who knows - should be easy to fix though if you want to alter the campaign files.

So your using Vista (32/64) then? Is that all you changed above? sounds like you may have changed something else in the file by accident. Did you back up the file?? if not reinstall YAP2 again, make a copy of VietnamSEA_data.ini and then try altering it. DO NOT extract the in game VietnamSEA_Data.ini from the cat file - because the YAP team will have made too many changes - you must only alter the file already in ....\WingsOverVietnam\Terrain\VietnamSEA when YAP is installed.

Yes search old threads on here - been covered sooo many times - may even be some in the air combat section in the Military and general aviation forum. You will be looking to learn boom and zoom tactics and fighting in the vertical - out turning a MiG-17 is a big no as youve probably realised by now - and slowing down will often let the other MiG on your six close in for the kill :)

Yeah you can copy the values over you want - they have to go with the right variables though unless you understand anything about FMs its going to be real trial and error im afraid - changing one value at a time then test etc etc

wow didnt think the BNs were still going!

who can out turn who at mach 2 :)

XF-108??

False - I'm not one for hiding - prefer a bright red submarine with flashing lights! The person below me had trouble finding this thread due to all the OverFlandersFields ones

Thats a great looking model there krizis!

Yeah - it seems to be more of an NVIDIA problem apparently - and ive been stuck with it having a GeForce7600 - despite trying this and that and everything else. Do you remember what forcewear you used with the GF6800? I might give it a go :) You may see the problem referred to as shimmer elsewhere and it may be worth asking TK if he knows why it happens - although most people blame NV for it. I've even seen one suggestion to blur the trees so if they blend in with the background you will get less flickering.

from http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/asia-pacific/7927520.stm S Korea diverts jets over threats Two airlines in South Korea are to re-route flights after North Korea said it could not guarantee their safety. Pyongyang's threat follows its warnings that a US-South Korean military exercise, due to take place next week, could trigger a military clash. North Korea has long described such exercises as provocative but tensions between the two Koreas are now high. About 30 international flights a day usually pass through North Korean airspace to and from the South. South Korea has called on the communist state to immediately withdraw its threat. "Threatening civilian airliners' normal operations under international aviation regulations is not only against the international rules but is an act against humanity," Unification Ministry spokesman Kim Ho-nyeon said. The BBC's John Sudworth in Seoul says passenger planes normally leave Seoul for the eastern United States by swinging north over the Sea of Japan to follow the Korean coastline towards Russia and North Alaska. The two major airlines, Korean Air and Asiana Airlines, have re-routed some 200 flights over the next two weeks, at the cost of four million won ($2,500; £1,800) per flight. The annual US-South Korean drill, which involves tens of thousands of troops, starts on Monday and continues for 12 days. North Korea objects to the exercise every year, but this event comes amid high tensions on the Korean peninsula. Map Pyongyang has scrapped a series of peace agreements with the South over Seoul's decision to link bilateral aid to progress on denuclearisation. Six-nation talks on the aid-for-disarmament deal have stalled and North Korea's neighbours believe it could be preparing to test-fire a long-range missile under the guise of a satellite launch. Earlier this week, North Korea raised objections to the annual exercise at a rare meeting between its generals and the US-led United Nations Command (UNC) in the South. Then on Thursday a North Korean committee warned that "security cannot be guaranteed for South Korean civil airplanes" during the forthcoming drill. No-one knew what "military conflicts will be touched off by the reckless war exercises", it said. A second short meeting between generals and the UNC was held on Friday, but there were no immediate reports of progress. In Washington, US State Department spokesman Gordon Duguid said the North's statement was "distinctly unhelpful". He said Pyongyang should be working on ways to fulfil its disarmament commitments "rather than making statements that are threatening to peaceful aviation". America's top envoy on North Korea, Stephen Bosworth, is currently visiting the region in an effort to breathe life into the stalled nuclear disarmament talks. Speaking in Japan, he described North Korea's warning on South Korean airliners as "unacceptable", and urged the communist nation against any rocket launch, whether of a missile or a satellite.

Nice work Lindr

Are your emails all coming in Plain Text format?? does it make a difference not using Word as the email editor in o2003??

and there OFF OFF Vs FE thread already :)

wow - wasnt expecting this one too!

It was for the Royal Navy - we are talking about Sea Harriers - and the FRS2 was Armed with AMRAAMs and a look down radar as our main fleet defence system after lessons learnt in the falklands: - those being that the original Sea Harrier only had Sidewinders and a radar that couldnt "look down" - also the Ship SAM systems were unreliable - so thus the Sea Harrier 2 was put into service. Pilot skill and training were a few of the factors - having AIM-9Ls against limited range A-4s and Mirages without countermeasures were too.

Jeez - nice shots MK2 - i need a system like that!!

Glad we did tbh - in 1982 it was proven to be lethal - there was no other jet on the planet that could have carried out that mission - Considering the only other thing we could fit on those tiny through deck cruisers we had were Helicopters!!. The Argentinian pilots knew what they were up against and respected and feared it from the start. Yeah a few crashed unfortunately but all jets do. Also any fixed runways would be taken out easily in any cold war strike scenario - thought that was the idea of having FOBs tbh
