  1. Mr T.

    I hadnt seen this one yet though http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hi4DEdUmA6A...;watch_response
  2. Now thats a torpedo!

    Enjoy http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/asia-pacific/7523147.stm
  3. Gamers Tool Skin Pack

    Well for sounds go to <drive>:\...\falcon4AF\sounds Look in there or the subfolders for any sounds (wav files) with the same names you have downloaded. One you find them rename them to nameofFile_old.wav then paste in the new ones you have - (this is so you dont overwrite the old ones.) Not sure why it has an ini - suspect its for a mod pack installer - you can paste the contents in here You cant just drop skins into a game directory like with 3rd Wire sims - the only way to install them in AF is to use the skin pack installer or lodEditor As before download a skin from gamers tools - which should be .skn format - but if its not it will be a zip file (which includes various bmp and ini files) - so put it in a folder called "Falcon skins" or something - then rename it from skin.zip to skin.skn then browse to "Falcon Skins" with the skin pack installer (which only recognises .skn files). ie \falcon_Skins\tornadoskin.skn I dont advise you use LODEditor till you can grasp using the skin installer
  4. Gamers Tool Skin Pack

    Where are you getting stuck exactly? it does come with instructions - I dont know of any tutorials myself - although you could try searching threads at frugals to see if anyone else has asked similar questions.
  5. The European version of WOI is (will be) called "Combat Over Isreal" it would seem - thats why I put TKs quote above
  6. Well as it happens: "Hm, I have to check with the European publisher (G2 Games), they did change the name to Combat Over Israel, but it shouldn't have been released yet... TK " from: http://bbs.thirdwire.com/phpBB/viewtopic.p...p;sk=t&sd=a thats COI to you guys!
  7. media unbiased?

    From what I remember the press over here hated George Bush Jnr and didnt want him in power - so thankfully whatever the press here thinks it means jack S (and so it should)- Our press is so biased and corrupt anyway. There hasnt been any bad coverage on Mccain that ive seen - hes just been mentioned a lot less - they are defo giving obama about 80% of the coverage - probably based on how he looks (seems to be how the press works) UK Press =
  8. BUFF Goes Down...Silent Post

    .
  9. Think it was done so there are more Migs for you to shoot down :) If you want them you have to put them in - there are allied SAMs like Hawks etc in the downloads section.
  10. Here we go again...

    If they do (unlikely) im not bothered tbh - will be some extra planes flying around that area - and give the USAF something to mock intercept. Bombers on Cuba is more of a political statement (if true) - im pretty sure their ICBMs based in Russia would do a better and more than adequate job regardless of whats on Cuba if it ever came to that - so you could say why would they do it! Well as for End of called war treaties - one of the conditions apparently was not expanding NATO further into Europe - which we have done so blatently and now we are putting missiles in former USSR territories - I can see why Russia may think we are taking the pi$$.
  11. They even have Lebanon listed - no Vietnam AF though??
  12. Looks familiar - think I know what happens next - does the missile completely ignore the target and miss
  13. Many congrats - Still if your honeymoon suite has the Internet - guess you could get some in then
  14. Great site - even I can get to that link so its something your end. Guess I can send you them as they are in the public domain In regards to the flight model - it must handle so differently - would need an FM expert to help you with that.
  15. Wow nice work! The F-18E/F are very different to the A/B/C/D models - what changes are you after?
  16. Smoke Effects.

    Not that I know of - The Open Falcon guys have access to everything to make those kinds of changes.
  17. There is a free flight sim in development see here: http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?showtopic=30340 You wont get a link to a dodgy Falcon 4 AF download from this site - there are very few combat flight sim developers these days and they are all very small outfits that need to be supported.
  18. Can't believe no one's seen this snippet

    always dismissed top gun as totally unrealistic - but it looks like they did their homework for most of it - may have even based some of it on Nam era pilots such as Winston Copeland. Even the dogfight at the end - always thought it was typical hollywood that the bad guys missiles missed - but then again countries like libya (which it is kinda depicting )had exported rear aspect AA-2s - which must have been flippin useless!!. Of course 6 x F-5Es Vs 1 x F-14A (aka Iceman) guns only at the range depicted should be a kill for the F-5s regardless of their skill level - cue Hollywood
  19. Normal Single missions will just choose a random enemy jet within the time frame its set for normally. You have to build a custom single mission - there are probably some already set up (depending on what game you have) - so if there is an F-4 Vs Mig-21 mission you can just go to your "missions" folder - open the mission in Notepad and change the F-4 to something else.
  20. USS Cabot question

    "Fitting the Spey meant a completely redesigned engine bay, larger intakes to handle the greater mass flow of air and wider, shorter jetpipes" Think the author has just directly related the performance issues to the fitting of the RR Spey 202/203 in general.
  21. USS Cabot question

    Dont think smoke was an issue - the Buccaneer used non reheat RR Speys - (the A-7D/E used licensed built Speys) Over the J-79 its claimed that the RR Spey gave better take off thrust, faster rate of climb, better low level acceleration, slower approach speed (more bleed air for boundary control) but on the negative side - reheat/AB light up times increased, max speed fell to Mach 1.9 and high altitude performance was worse than the J79 Phantoms.
  22. Problems launching sim

    Could try this link
  23. I hate to do this

    Have seen weird anomolies in all terrains - maybe driver linked but not sure yet You could try a defrag as a start
  24. The Dark Knight...
