Jet_spud, as for the missing engine sound, make sure to copy the content of the Sounds folder from the aircraft package to your First Eagles/Sounds/ folder (of course if it's included, not allways the sounds are included with aircraft download) The updated scenery may reduce your fps somehow (scene/mission dependant) but if you run now at stable 30-40+ try adding it

that's true, forgot about this little gem

do not underestimate OFF they did amazing things with the engine; yes it's still CFS3 but the changes are mile long, it's just that the feel of my plane is better done in FE. OT: as for CFS3 try ETO 1.2 expansion, more fun than MAW

Thomas, All your points are valid, and I agree 100%. I don't fly MP, never intended to do so (last time around 1998) but in SP I allways turn the icons/aircraft indicators off if it's possible. The only problem, not on this forum, but other ones, are those "run away noob" snobs pretending the full hardcore mode is the only right way to fly. We have real life pilots here, who like "lite" sims like First Eagles, because of the fun factor. ROF with shipping costed me 54 bucks. And for that price I'd like to have some playability from single player campaign, even maybe receive a medal at it's progress. But I run ROF for "Russian Rulette" and 3rd party quick mission generator flights now, if ever. It's still a game. Simulators costs hundreds of thousands in RL.

Hello guys, Very nice "little" package! Tested it briefly yesterday, so far looks good. Great to have all the best of the best mods in one download. The only thing I'd like to make clear -included trees graphics were created by Bananimal, redo of my work. He resized originals from Green Hell 2, that's why the trees float few feet over ground. Also please note that the various [alphaobjectmaterial] settings from my readme for GH2 were adjustments for WoV, and there are some significant rendering changes in SF2V, including new shaders; using the old ones won't guarantee described visual results, be cautious with these settings.

I'd rate solid 4* Dude, soo many times I started the ROF launcher, checked for updates, and then cancelled. Spot on, Tamper. There is no room for potential there IMO. From "Wings of Honour" interview with NeoQb, they're already thinking about modern sim. Seems the Devs already abandoned this project, just releasing those extra planes, which itself isn't that bad idea. *Where using my own rating system "Strike Fighters 2" series would have 7, "Whirlwind of Vietnam" 2 and "Il2:1946" strong 8.

Laton's Hansa-Branderburg (together with Phoenix), Hannovers and Halberstadts, also 101tfs' Roland. And of course Peter01's Flight Models

Happy Birthday!

UK_Widowmaker, you made my day!

looks good... 3 variants, right?

I like this one much! Thank you 101tfs

Oooohhh... Roland becoming my fav crate what skin is the last one? had no time to fly/mod/etc past few days

I only liked him in Red Dawn (not sure that was original title -teen guerillas vs Soviets in US) RIP

File Name: Strait of Gibraltar File Submitter: Stary File Submitted: 04 Sep 2009 File Category: First Eagles Terrain and Environmental Mods This is new 250x250km terrain for First Eagles, covering area of, well, the Strait of Gibraltar. Named a beta, it has everything needed for some quick action, or maybe even a campaign if someone would be so kind to make one. Included are several cities, some with port facilities, few scattered army camps, about a dozen aerodromes for both sides, new high resolution tileset, and some additional new objects. Read the readme about additional info. Requires Iron Duke by Hinchinbrook. Click here to download this file

Hello fellow FE simmers, Here's my current WIP of updating default FE Cambrai and Verdun terrains with new seasonal textures, trees and cities, together with new effects pack. Seasons include early spring, spring, summer, late summer/early fall, fall, early winter with light snow cover, winter. The default empty grass tiles have been replaced with less rectangular fields. Early spring: Spring: Summer: Fall: Late fall: Light winter: Winter: Together with some cities work: And here are some effects, most default will be replaced with new unified versions: When? About a week

FalconCAF, they work in Single Missions w/o problems. Did you overwrite the terrain's both terrainname.ini and terrainname_data.ini files?

Yes, near that church was the place 1st Tripod showed up, right?

Bump!

Have you installed the most recent Dx9c? There are still new Dx9c versions out every few months.

Ok, anyone else has FE freeze at mission start using this skin, or is it just me? It's simply too nice to just watch it in viewer

Panama Red's correct. The 3rd pic (bridge) -it's the custom Rhine tile coloured a bit differently that's not matching the (slightly different) color palette of my tileset than defalut one. The others -check for the frlake.tga tile from my "visual upgrade pack".

That compass was indeed there mounted on the right wing in Eindeckers, so no worries!

AFAIK seaplanes are supported by the CFS3 engine, and do work (example being ETO 1.2 addon) Yes, I'd vote for N.28 too!
