Cool

If you are talking about the official 3rd Wire patches - then they will only upgrade the stock game components by replacing entire files etc. Any other exes you create should be left alone (or might even be deleted) But you know how to create a new one anyway yes? Bare in mind that Campaigns are made for a particular patch level - if you go past that level by upgrading things might stop working without upgrading them manually.

Without much info to go on it sounds like your install may be porked - but it could be lots of things and I wont be doing any remote Windows troubleshooting today. 1. Suggest you uninstall all the games. 2. Install again in this order I think (You might want to check that at 3rd wires site) SF2,SF2V, SF2E, SF2I, SF2ep1, SF2ep2 When you install merged everything must go into the same folder so set the path as C:\Program Files (x86)\Thirdwire\SF2\ or similar for each install. Test it works and look in C:\Program Files (x86)\Thirdwire\SF2\ to make sure you have a .exe file for each game - i.e 6 exe files called: StrikeFighters2 Europe.exe StrikeFighters2 exp1.exe StrikeFighters2 exp2.exe ....... etc 3. Install cumulative patch May 2011 for all SF2 games 4. Install patch June 2011 then patch July 2011

Right so you dont have Expansion pack 1 or Expansion Pack 2 at all? 1. You either have the wrong Patch - you may need the June 2010 patch specifically for installs without Exp Pack 1. 2. err June 2010? - any reason you are still on those old patches?

Ha if Wiki is anything to go by Well as TK mentioned an 80s series including MiG-29s maybe things may go that way! Hmm I had 1 kill in around 300 shots with them! Looking at the Firestreak performance - something global may have been tweaked - difficult to tell because missile performance has changed so much in various versions. Nice review Pfunk

What settings are your effects on - you may need to tone down something.

What games do you have exactly? are they merged or separate?

Thats a fantastic job on the tails

Jar Jar was no doubt aimed at Kids - unfortunately like Yoda, Lucas didn't foresee that a largely adult audience would be sitting there pinnng their dreams another classic like the original and reliving their youth

Flip - cant believe the entire crane went over as well. Soft ground? - yeah that soft ground issue must be a real nightmare when you stick a massive crane on it - more like human incompetence!

Nice find! That picture is pretty clear! Must admit I was watching a Hawker Hunter display team with gritted teeth last weekend - and thinking whether they should be sticking to solo shows.

Wow - thats impressive!!

What are your system specs including graphics card? Have you tried altering the in game graphics settings?
