There are rumours of troops being organised on the columbian/Ven border (BBC) over the past few months so would expect they dont want people snooping around. You would have thought the P3 crew would have got their cameras out and taken pics of some real classic warbirds - that camo job they have is pretty cool.

Play it how you want - I have never used labels myself - and tbh getting too close the ground is a sure fire way to get shot down so I cant say im in distance anyway often. I use zoom and trackir for DToss - but often use the LANTIRN or mav view - and sometime padlock

Sounds like something is missing - what game have you installed it into? Suspect it was done for a different game that has the required files in its cats already. The shadows were changed in later patches so removing it might be the only answer - is it using a .shd shadow file or the dynamic in game ones?

Well each to their own but seriously people who have them wont fly without one ever again - takes a bit of getting used to but well worth it to keep looking at your opponent - something you cant do otherwise. What source do you have the IR light is dangerous? all i have found is this on wiki: "The power output of these LEDs is about 500 times lower than the ANSI safe limit for extended exposure (more than 16 minutes)[3] so is no more harmful than ambient light". Ive never played LOMAC but have played Falcon 4 for years so am familiar with modern air combat - that is using reliable radars with lookdown capability and firing off missiles with a good chance of success - and the things turn forever even though turn fights are not best advised. None of these things are really there in most of the 60 - 80s jets. You will find your self changing tactics and ways of fighting quite a bit even during that 20 year period depending on jet and weapons available.

The radar is very handy for avoiding AAA sites - it has limited use for target finding though - but can be done if you follow your steerpoints correctly using the pit dials and have a distance countdown. Then to manually view a ground target for dive bombing I zoom in with TrackIR - although this doesnt always work for small camoed guns. Padlock is handy too - good to have some aids to make up for the lack of airbourn/ground FACs. The A-10A never had a radar AFIAK - not even sure the A-10C is getting one

Using these jets just takes practise - is different to what youve been used to. If you can get a TrackIR - you can zoom in easily and spot jets further out without using icons. In the early F-4s you will have the pleasure of using hopeless missiles and poor radars also.

Some of the schemes look fantastic on this bird!

Have only ever played it through hyperlobby online - so you could meet up there which is probably a lot easier - you still need to port forward 2934 and 2935 UDP if you are behind a NAT router - how you do that depends on your router etc might be worth searching old threads or simhq now frugals is down

It was remixed and released as a dance track believe it or not in several versions by some bloke called William Orbit in the 90s - was a big hit at the time too http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRqndwCqa5g

Guessing the G07600 is in a bespoke Laptop here - if its happening in WOI then maybe worth changing some of the 3d settings - you dont say if you have this issue in a unmodded SF2 game For the extractor download and install it again - or just use the new catpack - works on SF1 and 2 cat files

happy Birthday

What patch are you using? tbh I've rarely used the ILS - only use it in pea soup fog so would have to test it.

TK has changed the ordering of the clouds and trees around in recent patches - he suggests putting a higher min altitude for the clouds - maybe in the flightengine.ini

Happy Birthday

Is this in single missions, campaigns or custom missions? Have you added any mods lately? Have any of your missions since this started happening given you the acomplaished sound? Do you get any other red crown sounds in game? If you create a new pilot does the problem persist?

Round sisters with the whole family for one day of fun and food - looking forward to it!

Well call me mr predictable here........SF2V/E/I

You can put XP on your new PC if you like - however it will work on Vista and Win 7 because I use it on Win 7 64 Install it outside the program files/(x86) folders, and then patch it to the latest patch Nov 08 I think You can also right click the shortcut on the desktop to set the compatibility and also set it to run as admin.

Well the target must be in the targets ini for that terrain you are using - unless you have nazi HQ in your ground objects folder and the game is selecting it. 1. Pointing to any should work if the objects it needs are in that cat file 2. You can control which planes appear on which terrain using the planes _userlist.ini file. and you can set the terrains .ini file to limited [Terrain] TerrainFullName=Israel, Middle East ....... LimitedNations=TRUE <------------------- The terrain should have a _nations.ini list ini with content like this: [LimitedNationList] FriendlyNation001=ISRAEL EnemyNation001=Egypt EnemyNation002=Syria

Dont install it in Program files - install it elsewhere - Windows 7 protects program files - one reason why SF2 series was created and WOE is not supported on Vista/W7 If you have the latest patch it should then work - if you have installed DX9

Was it fine before you started adding mods? If so you may have added something thats causing the problem - the best thing to do is take out the mods - or unistall the whole game - then reinistall it. But next time add mods carefully and test after each one to see whats causing it. Keep in mind that if you add a mod that is not for your game version then it may include old ini files that will overide the ones in your game. Make sure you are using the correct weapons editor for your version also btw this is in the wrong forum

If you download a mod that was tested in a different or older version of the game then it may not work straight away for several reasons - however with a bit of tweaking it can probably be made to work. not sure what A-6 you have there but if its trying to use something only found in SF2V then it wont work unless thats changed
