Paying to see screenshots and news - thats surely a first!!! They do give a few incentives I guess - but I think I will wait till the games released (cough). And btw there better be an F-16 with a cherry on top in it or else

If only Hitler had stuck to car design hey - he would be the father of world peace and Hippies everywhere Think they were still making those up till recently were they not?

My tip for the day would be - install only Plane/mod at a time - and each time test it in single mission mode to make sure everythings there before going on to the next one. Reason being if you add 10 at a time say - and the game crashes its a lot harder to find which mod is causing the crash

Nah never played it - but did the BOB thing years back with other games. besides after 4 years - am finally playing an F-104C Rolling Thunder campaign in WOV :blush2:

either give us a list of the files in the zip file, a direct link to where you got that skin from, or send it in a PM

1. Sorry I thought you meant in your earlier post that the IR missile would be fired before the radar missile. 2. That comes back to what Jedi says above - when it switches from INS to its IR seeker what exactly does it lock onto? this sounds almost like a LOAL scenario. INS would just get the missile to a point - the target would be long gone - so without radar providing updates to the missile about where the actual target is - surely the IR seeker will just lock onto any jet in that area? Also to get firing information initially for the IR missile would the radar of the attacking jet need to switch to a mode like STT - because this would be picked up by the passive RWR and signify a radar lock at least. Assume it was hoped at the time that any target would be expecting a SARH shot only at range and so would be surprised by a long range IR missile?

Yeah me too - but its kept a lot of people in work and IMO is badly needed! Just nice to have some real carriers again Dont worry N im sure somone will make some nice roundels for you btw

Slave it to radar would be my guess for long range shots - but then does the radar keep providing the missile with updates till its IR seeker gets anything?? - in which case a launch could be like a SARH one. If they did launch the IR missile first as said above by Tomas - then "answers on a postcard" as to why. Maybe because a SARH missile would have to be guided - so fire the IR as fire and forget (or go F&F at some stage) then fire the radar shot and guide it in. There may be different versions of the R-77 - although its always labelled as active radar homing - so would imply it uses a radar in its terminal phase with some kind of home on jam backup I guess there could be IR versions - did have a look for Vympels web site - but funnily enough cant find it.

Click on the "Downloads" button above then click on the link in the strike fighters section for WO* utilities and editors - its been there ages so is probably on the 1st or 2nd page

Kreelins KMD mission editor is in downloads in the third wire utilities and editors section. If you dont use that - you can use Notepad - which is a lot more time consuming i imagine - you will already have some missions in the games mission folder (.msn files) that you can open up and see how its done.

21st April http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?showtopic=27808 thats a slightly extended version to the edited BBC one

Did you only get the F-16CJ pit? if so it should appear when you fly a Block 50 or 52 Looks like there is: F-16A MLU F-16CG Block 40/42 F-16CJ Block 50/52 http://www.cockpits.net/website/sales1.html

Not sure what else to suggest - try disabling your Anti virus software before running the game. Also try changing some of the advanced Nvidia settings - or set up a profile for SFG. In regards to drivers you can find different versions on nvidias web site http://arg.nvidia.com/page/home.html If its still not working - this is the reinstall procedure you should have carried out before: 1. Uninstall the game 2. find the folder you installed it in (example: C:\prog~\SFG) and delete any remaining files. 3. restart the PC 4. reinstall the game 5. install patch v5-15-06 6. test game 5. install patch v8-30-06 7. test game

Have you put MERs and TERs on the pylons in the loadout.ini?

Then it wont work - they have to be .skn as ive said Tell me exactly what files are in one of the zip files.

hmm - what would I do without you babe

Good point - I always stick 1 on each wing in the default loadout (apart from on the A-10)- probably because the lack of trim control annoys me!

Have you tried running the game in different screen resolutions from the in game options menu? If you have a valid copy of SFG and its definately installed correctly - it should have no problems running on your PC - its either a Windows problem - or its your geforce drivers at a guess. So if you havnt already - defrag your drives, run scandisk, run a virus scan etc If you think Windows is in good working order - then you may want to consider using different drivers - I currently use NVidia Forceware 84.21 - though whatever you do its up to you My DirectX Version is: DirectX 9.0c (4.09.0000.0904)

Or if you are lazy like me - just jettison the bomb racks (ctrl+J)- it should trim out ok then Ive had the issue with stock AC too - have just put up with it - like having no braking parachute when pressing ctrl+B

Your using SkinPack Installer V1.0 yeah Click on the "Directory" button and select the folder where you have placed the skins Then click on the down arrow next to the drop down box. If no entries appear then the skins you have in that folder are in the wrong format or they are not for AF. Are they defo .skn files or are they .zips?

Well most things becomes obsolete one day - but at the moment stealth is having its day so to speak - and its a massive advantage if applied correctly it would seem. How long it lasts - who knows - but I doubt the US will be sitting on its ass waiting for someone to find a cure.

Told ya - they couldnt lose with Torres and Alonso in the team!

Can confirm the following: 1. Do you get any Error Messages when the game closes? 2. Does the game load up okay BEFORE you install the patch? 3. Can you try this - go to START-> RUN then type in "dxdiag" without the quotes and let us know the version and if it finds any problems 4. Are you running Windows XP Service Pack 1 or 2? The only patches you should be installing are on here: http://www.thirdwire.com/downloads_sfg.htm

Hmm - why has it changed your status - no one will know you are a Moderator now! Tell me what to do will you
