Hmm - Can either ask TK to get better templates or I guess some poor suckers gotta make some better ones.

Yeah lots of people Only viable in a pit where most of the dials work etc - and on a big v high res monitor - otherwise seeing things close in is an eye straining nightmare.

Well I dont speak German - but this is the Falcon 4.0 AF forum. The Knowledgebase has instructions for running WOE on Vista - if someone can translate

How embarassing - its got a nice flat belly to land on at least! Think that pilot will be flying a cargo plane full of rubber dog**** out of Hong Kong! - to quote from something

Amazing thanks - that info is gold - am saving it as we speak! Will be practising this tactic a lot more now - using the auto/boresight mode and zooming in so I can get a tally on the blighter!

Well there are quite a few from the 50s and 60s also (F-105, F-100, Mig-17, Mig-21, F-4, SU-7, Hawker Hunter) The AIM-54A Phoenix was in service from about 1975 I believe - although its in the weps pack

Sure - make sure you have it patched up though http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autoc...p;showfile=2673

Yes you should be able to use the LAU-5003A - makes sure the master arm is on - hit the button and all 19 should fire out. I havnt used them myself in years - they bring you too close to the small arms ground fire and MANPADs - so not recommended unless you like taking low level risks.

Thanks Wags - I thought this may have been cheating the ROE a bit - since I would be dragging the Mig away from the flight and then firing a shot at something that couldnt be Identified too well from maybe 5 miles or so (or the minimum enagement range for the Sparrow). Was the real radar any use at identifying a smaller target or was it a case of using binoculars?

1. Some of the bridges have different sections - you have to destroy the correct section sometimes to complete the mission. 2. Just accept it as good luck - maybe the Navy and AF didnt talk to each other and decided to bomb the same target etc

So to sum up - poor missiles, a gun pod that was so bad pilots felt it better to leave at home and a jet with the flying characterics of a brick - also BVR missiles you had to use at visual range - cant think of many other ways to make it more of a challenge really - other than to only fly on 1 engine :) The gunpods always been a must for me in this sim if available - becomes invaluable after Ive jettisoned the AIM-4Ds into the ether. On the other hand flying the F-4B in an early 64 nam campaign captures some of that futility by having 4xAIM-9Bs and 4x AIM-7s to fight the Mig-17s with - sometimes all you can think of doing is to try and lure the Migs away. Difficult enough against the poor AI - but against a real pilot probably a nightmare.

Now thats interesting - Im pretty sure the fuel consumption can be changed in the data.ini file for each aircraft - which I may have to make a point of doing now :) YAP have stuck in some KC-135s - though you cant take fuel from them - if you are low you just have to make it to the tanker and pretend. Many thanks for that

No top notch - many thanks for your time Two planes at a time is possible in this series - in the Yankee Air Pirate missions a lot are started with both you and the wingman on the runway so you can attempt to do the formation takeoff (and fail miserably) - not sure ive seen a 4 plane take off attempted though.

You could try Filemon (file monitor) by sys Internals http://technet.microsoft.com/en-gb/sysinte...s/bb896642.aspx You will see theres a lot going on

How old is this install? have you modded it much - the first thing I would do is copy the entire current game to a back up folder. then uninstall SFG via "Add/Remove progs" and manually delete any remnants (apart from the backup folder of your game of course) - then reinstall it and test it BEFORE modding it. my DirectX Version: DirectX 9.0c (4.09.0000.0904)

Not seen that before - have you patched Allied Force to the latest patch? (1.0.13)

You can also change the blackout parameters by extracting "aircraftobject.ini" (goes in the objects folder) and tweaking these: [PilotGLimits] BlackoutStartG=9 BlackoutAmount=0.035 RedoutStartG=-2.5 RedoutAmount=0.05 RestoreRate=0.05

Dont play with the start up video myself - usually just delete it Open up IntroMovies.ini (in the games root folder) and change it to this: [Movie001] Name= Not counting on it but see if anything improves

Milton Keynes - thats a Tesco price - come to think of it its probably 95p now but its still well under a pound here (remembering back to last weeks fill up). You are too near to London! :)

Is that a photo? - My Airplane encyclopedia (~1991) mentions the overwing pylons as a hasty 'Mod' for operation Granby about 3 times. I suppose they could have been specced out but hardly used before then - lazy authors!

Woah many thanks for that analysis Wagsled! Its interesting that you did find some simularities with the real F-4 at least. I suspect poor old TK is going to have to rework a lot of flight models for the next set of patches out soon to bring SFP1 etc up to WOI standard.

Probably easier to copy the desert terrain folder to WOE tbh
