RIP

Happy Birthday from a huge Giger fan!

+1

That's the spirit! Everyone started from begining one day

Yes Sir! Cheers to all!

Surely, now we know what we're dealing with call in the fembots!

Gunrunner, you just made me change my sig

Stiglr... yeah sure... whatever...

That was lame. Another excellent example why simulators (and any decend PC games) are dying.

Just starting this beautiful hobby, my girl friend got me interested in SLRs Very basic stuff for start: Nikon D80 AF-S DX VR 18-55 Saving money for: AF-S DX 55-200 (or 18-105) good tripod (current one is a toy) NEF (RAW)

I want one!!!

What the f... this is HUGE man... nice renders, any actual photos? I have no idea what's this, but makes my blood pumpin'

With every mission now it's more and more my favourite Thirdwire title:

Yes, the most important factor is that TK's sims are coded by one man himself. Not only graphics engine, but also physics, AI, terrain, campaigns generator, everything. Big teams like MS Aces, Oleg's or ED usually consist of many coders responsible for their narrow part of sim development only. Also please take note that with every patch new features are being added, some of them are very resources hungry when introduced (clouds, true self-casting shadows, etc.), but then in following patches performance increases, sometimes noticeable (vide stock WOI vs recent updates) I'm running almost unmodded FE+EP1 right now, gameplay averages around 30-50 fps with more planes in the air than in most other sims (except BOB2 of course). Is this sufficient for enjoying it? For me, yes. Sufficient framerate is very subjective matter.

Ok, so here it is: Higher priority: 1.Curtiss Hawk model 75A cockpit -75% done, setting up gauges, need canopy rework and glass+reflections meshes, release date unknown 2.P-40B cockpit- 20% complete, based on Hawk 75A cockpit progress, need major mesh modifications/texture work, release after the above 3.generic realistic effects pack First Eagles/WW2 oriented -about 30% done, it's very time-consuming, release date unknown Lower priority: 4.New Korea terrain(by Brain32 & Wrench) -need trees height/shape/color corrections, city tiles to be populated, other members progress dependent 5.Spring/Summer seasons for WOE -using tods from winter and fall versions, need new graphics 6.EAW Euro (modern) by Wrench -tileset bugs tweaks -currently on hold due to lack of working texture list 7.various city buildings -digged up from the abbys, need proper collisionmeshes

Hardly, it's M$, they won't let their property leak with talented and open-minded creators... to much risk for such company (another reason why, as rumor says, there's beta of almost finished CFS4 encrypted somewhere on someone's harddrive in Redmond)

Looks very nice Wrench! There are high scrappers (not that high, given they were made for 60's-80's Europe) introduced on city tiles in my Germany tod mods, can be easily renamed to use with desert tileset: EDIT: @Wrench: EAW Euro (Modern) 4 Season rebuild is in my hands, but there's not much that can be done with it now

Wonderful, indeed. They modded my Camel into monoplane, I've modded their engine into rocket one

Nice. So, maybe there's a way to make napalm destruction radius/cone better now?

Damn, you could give me some warning! (I don't like them!)

"You have chosen wisely"

File Name: Enhanced Explosions 3 effects pack File Submitter: CA_Stary File Submitted: 12 Jul 2008 File Category: Effect Mods My third approach at modyfying explosions to give them that familiar hollywood-style exaggerated look: new graphics, new emitters, brand new look for the series. And YES, they are best looking when combined with the HDR/Bloom plugin. New for the series are generic nuclear effects. Click here to download this file

Hello zilvesta123, welcome aboard, have you downloaded and installed Bunyap's Weapons Pack? without it nukes could not work; also what sim are you using it in?
