S! RIP! S! RIP!

Why not change the particle sizes in particular effects? I also attached new realistic bombs effects (to use with Laton's nicely reworked effects of mine) about two months ago in FE general discussion thread here they are hiding: http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?showtopic=41597

thanks guys. I like such zoomed in shots. I almost collided with my flight leader's wingman chasing that Albatross. reason for edit: small typo

Here are selected shots from past few days: and today flying for Jasta 19 in March of 1917 (taken with ENBseries plugin dll):

Green Hell 2 has there IIRC... just some renaming (and pointing to valid bmp or tga file) should work

I bought it from flight sim pilot shop, should arrive within 2 weeks, then I'll have my own unbiased (thank you SimHQ ) opinion about it. The recent user posted Y-tube movies doesn't look that bad after all. And quoting Jedi Master above: "Having 4 planes is more than 2x better than just 2" -main reason I bought FE with Expansion Pack, 3 planes was a bit too small choice at start.

Hello, I'm new to OFF:BHAH, but I played a little Phases 1 and 2 back in 2006 and 2007. Long time CFS 3 experience. First, I'm very impressed by the amount and quality of work put into this simulation -previous installments are no indication of the Phase 3 experience! Thank you developers! Also I'm very happy that some issues that are hard-coded are being constantly "cracked" -the use of no more supported CFS3 engine was holding me off at beginning. There are few things I'd like to know: 1) view system -is it possible to pan the view with mouse? Can't afford TrackIR at the moment, hat switch isn't that useful (long habit of using mouse to do so) 2) claims -how long does it take to approve/reject them? my fellow pilots usually die on next or yet another flight 3) once in a squadron transfer my waypoints messed up, leading straight north off the map -might be because I've installed BHAH over Phase 2? 4) playing on 120% realism (auto mixture on) dead is dead caused errors few times ie. I was badly shoot and my crate exploded mid air, yet my pilot survived, next mission I emergency landed in fields, but banked to the left and shattered my wings at very low speed, pilot killed (Se5a Viper) 5) serving for France in mid 1916, I had several (four or five now) flights without a single contact (flying Bebe in Alsace) All the above in OFF 1.31L, Phase 3 installed ontop of Phase 2. Cheers, Stary

I was thinking exactly the same... maybe some background pointer tool with paning keys binded to mouse axis movement? There's that nice 4-dof mod for IL2 AFAIK

Surely, Krynica-Zdrój, Poland

thanks uncleal, I fly with labels off, just at the start of flight I padlock flightleader, helps maintain formation (Target Display also off for surprise of course)

thanks Olham, I read in the FAQ about the lack of action in 1916, opposite to mid 1917 -survived two flight: transfer,transfer, killed on takeoff by enemy during scramble

Ruggbutt, if you'd ever get bored by this pit, let me know Seriously, what Silverbolt said x2

I'll wait a little more. Having fun with the other WW1 title right now will see how thing develop regarding ROF. New simulator with brand new engine is allways welcome after all. Ok, apart from Whirlwind of Vietnam thingy

Maybe, after let's say three more free added planes, I'll buy it... maybe...

Happy Birthday Nicky!

Malibu43, be aware that once you buy CFS3 you'll end up running on it OFF phases 1 and 2, which leads straight into WW1 marvel the OFF:BHAH is... at least so it was in my case recently CFS3 alone puzzles me... as it's in my opinion worse (as a sim) than IL2 family, I found out to my own surprise I played it more than IL2 all the years now. The only thing I may negate is the as JediMaster pointed out indeed outdated graphics engine (but I'd die to have such terrain engine in Thirdwire sims, with all the roads and rivers networks and mesh resolution...) Also there are full total conversion mods like MAW, PTO and ETO, that add and improve much over the out of the box version Please note that my opinion about CFS3 vs IL2 is from single-player only gamer. edit: as for OFF Phases 1 and 2 (you can skip the first one) they seem to be no longer available for download, but there's a DVD swapping at combatfs dot com (sticky on Cfs3 general discussion forum IIRC)

Very good work!

Clearly my decision to buy OFF BHAH instead of ROF was the wise one...

Going for a 10 day trip to Croatia tomorrow -so a lot of beer and local beverages for me

Didn't know that, thanks for information Spinners

looks like you were using useadvancedshaders=1 in options.ini, but only if it's happening in new series

Welcome Finally I ordered my copy of BHAH today, so I may come up with some noob questions in near future :yes: (how long does it takes, delivery to eastern Europe?) Call of Juarez was good shooter in my opinion, has some minor issues, but overall recommended if you like western theme. I'm modder from Thirdwire jet simulations forums here at CombatAce, the thing in my sig is from upcoming India-Pakistan mod I participate in.

Sorry I didn't make it clear, COJ=Call of Juarez BIA:HH uses Unreal Engine 3.0 IIRC
