  1. Sensors that detect IR missiles are things only relevent to last 5-8 years (if that) or so AFAIK Adding such a thing to older jets would probably be cheating - so you may as well use external views to check nothing is creeping up on you. Dont fly in a straight line if faced with AA-2 armed Migs for too long - If you have stuck in MANPADS release flares and jink a lot when over defended areas.
  2. Mission Change

    Sounds like you will be enforcing a certain area around a base, checking out possible mortor firing positions, going on aggresive patrols etc - similar to what the RAF regiment do at RAF bases and a lot of them are part timers. Probably better than sitting in a guard tower waiting to be shot at - but still dangerous. But then again is there a safe job in a war zone? Well good luck
  3. Armor skins

    If your using LOD Editor 610 as with my FA-18FG then from the top menu go to "Preferences" -> "Use LP Database" and the correct names will be listed down the left hand side.
  4. Armor skins

    Hi Congo - welcome to CombatAce - and Hey why not indeed! theres always room for improvement in that dept If you need some basic help then you could start off looking at some of the downloads ive put up to give you an idea of how to put skins into F4:AF http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autoc...amp;showcat=128
  5. Newest James Bond Trailer

    I noticed the press over here seemed to put him down entirely based on his looks - but were duly gutted when the film turned out to be brilliant - for me its finally got the grit it needed - DC seems to be someone a lot more believable as an assassin.
  6. The original files should still be in the cat files - just cut and paste out the altered files you put in and test it.
  7. The flight model is defined in the aircrafts data.ini file (e.g. f-16A_Netz_data.ini) - you can change it using Notepad there may be some old threads on here and simHQ describing some of the basic bits if you look.
  8. Scary Pictures

    Anyone seen that film "The Day After Tommorow"?
  9. Read the Mirage/Nesher Aces book last week - and the real Shahak goes the same speed with or without burners when the tanks are on according to one pilot - who easily kept up with his flight in mil power
  10. Spanish Civil War? This is an A-Team release is it? At the least you need the terrain and the WOI weapons editor - but if the mod uses something only in SFP1 it wont work - also you may get some funny handling from the planes if they are SFP1 flight models. Does the readme say anything useful in this regards?
  11. Ok The Real Reason CA Needs the Money

    Just wait a few years and maybe the seas will rise - so all that profit can go on........... paying TK to implement the braking chute
  12. OMG AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

    Sounds bad - ive read about people getting shocked/killed when having their mobile phones plugged in(not sure how true or why)- although ive no idea what damage 110Volts direct from the mains would actually do if you received that much. Over here its about 220V-240V so I know what that means.
  13. CA Subscriptions

    Doesnt surprise me tbh - people are used to getting freebies off the net its todays culture, a lot of people may not have credit cards - and even if they are old enough probably dont want to explain to their other halves why they are spending money on a gaming site - when they can download most of it for free anyway. The people who care have paid up - no surprise either - is always the way with a lot of hobbies/clubs where the few support the many - and the many have a good time - but the alternative is to have nothing. If you want money you have to force the issue more - probably at the expense of more members joining etc for example You could get rid of free downloads and have a basic joining fee 1000 downloads for say $10 / £5 maybe. Or you could put the best / most popular mods into an area that only paid up members can access. Before you do that though I would suggest having a very big banner on the Home page - making it much clearer than it currently is that subscription is here and its purpose to support the site.
  14. Greets from Afghanistan

    Good luck out there!
  15. Creating Skins for F4:AF

    As far as the F-16 goes you would want to go to thegamerstools and get RedBirds F-16 skin pack - or go to JanHass page and get his skins which are also amazing - links in older threads on here. No tutorial but some of the downloads ive put up should give you some idea of how things are done http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autoc...amp;showcat=128
  16. see fubar512s post above Most of the add on flight models are probably only tested in Normal/Hard anyway
  17. Sept 11th 2001

    .
  18. Extract the campaigns data.ini file (ie woeCamp1_date.ini) from the cat file in the flight folder find the unit you want to change and add this with the plane you want to upgrade to during the campaign - obviously changing the date etc to what you want: UpgradeType=FIXED Upgrade[01].Date=10/8/1973 Upgrade[01].Type=A-10 Upgrade[01].Texture=USAFGrey1
  19. 2. Are you using Vista? - have you installed the latest Direct X 9?
  20. sure its not a James Bond plot from the 60s?
  21. AIM-9J was pants -did get kills but quite a few fired in 72 by the USAF and quite a lot went no where near according to pilot accounts - the N/P were later improved versions of the J and still only rear aspect - dont know about the N but the later P variant was used by Iran and had good combat performance according to Iranian accounts. Poor old Iraq its written that they were so shocked with the R-13/R-13R performance compared to Irans AIM-9P that they purchased AIM-9Bs from Jordan in 83 - and French Magic R550s in 81 and 84.
