Im happy with getting feedback tbh :)

1 way If your back is turned is - get down low - put on your ground radar on and avoid any white dots till you hit freindly territory

How realistic would you want it though - it was a pain to implement it in Falcon 4 - and LP changed it about 4 times between 2005 and 2008 also. I rarely use it - its not always required for campaigns and its fun for the first 5 minutes. The player would need to manage where the tanker was placed to make use of it - any auto placement would see it flying 80 miles away when you need it (as happens in Falcon when you dont set its waypoints) Something TK would have to address is a stable KC-135 if he put it in - with an automated boom - and maybe on easy mode an autopilot would take over and do it for the player - still quite a lot of work there!

Yes they are fantastic - you can zoom in with your head too in these games. I wouldnt fly without one - takes a bit of getting used to - also make sure you have the sensor on the monitor pointing away from sun light. I have tweaked the viewlist.ini file to give a bit more freedom of movement - so just say if you want that when you get it.

Last time I played the stock RT 1965 they came in from 1965 - in the real thing the first F-4C was lost to an SA-2 on 24th July 1965 pretty sure that had no RWR either. Having a tracKIR i used to listen for the SAM calls and spot the inbound direction - the early SAMs are easy to avoid if you keep it in your front 180 and change altitude by a few thousand ft - this is without any ECM/RWR/ countermeasures To help pressing R when a SAM call is made will target the Site - you can then use F4 to give the direction of it. One thing I used to do was put back the SA-2F start date to 1968 because they were death rays even with ECM - although I think these have been toned down in later patches

Havnt played Rolling thunder for a while - the SAMs should come in from 65 though I think - cant remember without checking - and they are only the SA-2C version at first

Well i'll drink to that mate

1. Does it happen to the game when there are no mods installed with the Oct 2008 patch? 2. if not then install a fresh copy and carefully add the mods back in - because one of them is causing the issue you will need to test the game out as you are installing things back into it.

yeah your stuck with the flare thing - but guess its good to have some feedback - you wont get that info from the pits in most cases

towed decoys :) - you might have to do it like the refueling drogues on the A-4/A-6/A-3s in Yankee Air Pirate??

Nice one TMF - superb work on these babies!

thar she is - looking ace!!!

That should sort out those flippin birds

Find your advanced settings on the graphics card - and I cant speak for ATI cards but you should be able to set up a profile for WOE/WOV etc etc blah in each profile you should be able to up the anti-aliasing and anisotropic filtering - which will make a difference - you will need to experiment to find the best settings though - to much of the above will slow you right down!! as for issues with ATI cards try a search basically unless someone here can advise - its likely you should get non shimmering trees with ATI cards??

Yes one was in the works years back - but it hasnt been released to the public yet.

maybe a typo who knows - should be easy to fix though if you want to alter the campaign files.

So your using Vista (32/64) then? Is that all you changed above? sounds like you may have changed something else in the file by accident. Did you back up the file?? if not reinstall YAP2 again, make a copy of VietnamSEA_data.ini and then try altering it. DO NOT extract the in game VietnamSEA_Data.ini from the cat file - because the YAP team will have made too many changes - you must only alter the file already in ....\WingsOverVietnam\Terrain\VietnamSEA when YAP is installed.

Yes search old threads on here - been covered sooo many times - may even be some in the air combat section in the Military and general aviation forum. You will be looking to learn boom and zoom tactics and fighting in the vertical - out turning a MiG-17 is a big no as youve probably realised by now - and slowing down will often let the other MiG on your six close in for the kill :)

Yeah you can copy the values over you want - they have to go with the right variables though unless you understand anything about FMs its going to be real trial and error im afraid - changing one value at a time then test etc etc

wow didnt think the BNs were still going!

who can out turn who at mach 2 :)

XF-108??

False - I'm not one for hiding - prefer a bright red submarine with flashing lights! The person below me had trouble finding this thread due to all the OverFlandersFields ones

Thats a great looking model there krizis!
