  1. Was the headline main news all day yesterday in the UK - as it is our worst Sporting disaster Must admit I didn't watch much of it - its quite upsetting seeing all the faces of the 96 - most were so young - and I too remember the day even though I saw the whole thing unfold live on TV. the day changed football forever over here - its much more of a family safe environment these days with much better stadiums. and yes it all points to Police incompetence unfortunately that caused the deaths. its also the reason ive never brought a copy of the Sun (aka scum) newspaper RIP the 96 You'll Never Walk Alone
  2. If your gonna learn to drive, learn in a manual drive car - then afterwards you can drive both real cars and bumper cars
  3. You could try YAP2 in SF2W and it will go in with a bit of messing around I imagine - but there have been so many changes to the engine since the 2006 version YAP runs at which is why they kept it at the 2006 level. If you did it expect weird things to happen and some of the flight models to be "Interesting"
  4. But do you though ? :ph34r:
  5. Not sure what you mean here? - the original WOV map had all that too which is how I did the South Vietnam invasion campaign As for the A-6 guess the old pit will go over - and I have Razbams excellent A-1H and E cockpits for the AI skyraiders - bit of a nice surprise to see them in there though.
  6. Borat was good I must admit - actually prefered "Ali G Inda House" myself - was even sillier.
  7. I think theres a SAM trails mod somewhere that may help. - assume you are only dealing with SA-6/SA-2 and not with SA-13 /SA-9 etc
  8. Thats a known problem - happened on XP also that did - there is a solution - search old posts on here or at Frugals world because it was very common
  9. From the BBC US captain released from pirates breaking news The captain of a US container ship taken hostage by Somali pirates has been released, the US Navy has said. According to initial reports, three pirates were killed in the operation to free Captain Richard Phillips. Another is in custody. Capt Phillips is said to be unhurt and on the USS Bainbridge, a warship sent to track the pirates holding him. He was taken hostage last Wednesday after pirates briefly hijacked his ship, the Maersk Alabama. Media reports say Capt Phillips' family was informed of his release several hours ago. Somali elders had been trying to resolve the standoff but most recent reports suggested the talks had stalled.
  10. What happens when AI controls your AWACs platform: Kuwait saves itself:
  11. Get the AI near the ground and manoeuvre kills are almost a certainty - still at least they do crash in this sim - in F4 I don't think ive seen one enemy AI jet hit the ground.
  12. 1. Very different - more challenging in most missions - new things to learn 3. imo is very good
  13. Its a nice looking jet - not the best IMO
  14. yep probably a fix in the knowledgebase - think its shaders you will need to disable in the terrain data.ini this http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?showtopic=34221
  15. Isreali Shahak pilots in the 6 day war seemed to have a policy of dropping them as soon as they got vectored to a target - although this was later changed to only jettison them when they were vectored to an actual bogey - due to waste - which shows its down to aircraft, pilot or orders. In the case of an F-4 ive read USAF pilot accounts that the centerline tank had to go before AIM-7s could be used?
  16. Happy Easter one and all!

    RIP Ed

    A true hero Ed "Too Tall" Freeman - Glad him and snake got the MOH eventually http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ed_Freeman Both are immortalised in the film "We Were Soldiers"
  18. Nice one dude - prepare for the interview though - you dont wanna stuff that up!
  19. I think some are beta - others may not be to a high level of detail - but i couldn't tell without comparing them to actual photos - unless he does an F-16 of course. Have you got any screen shots of the problems?
  20. Make sure you put the effects that came with the 22 (if any ) into the effects folder - if not Look in the engines section of the F-22_data.ini and change the afterburner emitter names for both to the generic one.
  21. Again the EF like the F-22 came out of a time when they were required to combat the USSR Jets - okay so perhaps they are not as needed - its easy to see what happens with hindsite - maybe we should have just stuck to the F-3s at least it would be a fairer fight if we had defend territory against a country with Flankers etc. The EF can still be a pretty good CAS platform - will get to the scene a lot quicker than an A-10 and with PGMs its still gonna be accurate enough to help ground forces. As for the F-22 - if you were an air force would you even bother starting anything against that?? and its been said already would the US be okay to fall behind if another country developed 5th Gen fighters first and took the lead - because they are being developed by others regardless.
  22. Yeah even in YAP1 the flak was lethal and a bit of a shock - you cant ignore that!
  23. The SE is not that cheap either - I dont think its a viable option myself. 2030 - id hope its a lot longer than that - the F-15/16s could be about till 2025 apparently
  24. Um - Have you not seen the F-15 Silent Eagle? http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?showtopic=38352
