  1. I have a question about the F-22 HUD, used by the F-22 in the OPERATION DARIUS Add-On. Here are some screen shots of a Bandit locked up at 20 miles, within range. I'm I missing something ??? Where is the in range indication ??? There is no "ticker" on the circle, no "Bar" to the side, and no "SHOOT" label on the target that is bracketed, and I don't see any indicator in Cockpit either. Is it just me ???
  2. this may not be realistic … but they sure are fun to play the sim with …
  3. Can you help this little Pony Can you help me, help this little Pony ?

  4. [Fictional] F-31A Mustang II Mod Eagle Scheme

    Thanks a bunch
  5. this is all personal preference, and opinions, and likes … the Operation Desert Storm Campaign ADD-ON is a favorite of mine because it is DOABLE and the "real deal" you get so much in one complete package plenty of improved Planes, all time tested and thoroughly modded to use to make your own single mission with. The Campaign is one you can beat, and win. Where as some of these Campaigns are just nearly impossible to beat, but add plenty of things for you to play with creating single missions and checking out various scenarios. Truth is … once you get the hang of it …. ( it's easy watch those tutorials ) …. you'll probably end up checking them all out before it's done.
  6. for a overview and examples of the most popular MOD Campaigns check out my Play List here … ****** jump down about half way through it to see my STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 Videos ….
  7. this is a MUST watch for anybody new to the game …
  8. I'm starting to understand little by little experimenting with these avionics. I want to help out, and with so many good Map creators, and Plane Modders here already, if I can get to a point where I can make a working avionics package … then I might be able to contribute too. That's one of the reasons I keep finding the unfinished ones and fiddling with them. and I like flyin' them too …. And I also like Pony's … LOL
  9. The one that I found where everything works actually is the EF-2000 RAF one in the Darius Campaign… it's pretty much the same cockpit you picked, slightly better avionics, funny I never noticed it before those cockpits show twin rudders in rear view …. MIG 29s maybe.? I'm gonna double check and see what's in the most recent EF-2000 update.
  10. you might get a laugh out of this ... I have a temp folder on my desktop called "The F-31A graveyard". That one is a pretty good fix and might help me tweek in the real one so I named it, model EJ1, so it wont get mixed up with all the ones that struck out.
  11. Thanks EricJ, but the RAF one works better. that one is practically the same except the range is not displayed. after a couple of minutes you can get used to the yellow. If that's one from a EF-2000, try the RAF one … and see what you think. The next time I post for a Plane fix … I'm going to pull out a couple of Old Yeller Movie quotes. That Little Pony thing cracks me up. I feel another video coming on …..
  12. I'm not giving up, because the ideal solution would be to polish up the Avionics for the F-31A Cockpit. It's has the moving tips of the canards visible, and the correct rear view. I have tried several substitutes in the mean time. Here is what I ended up using for now, if anybody else want's a quick fix. the new F-16 ones with NV …. they functioned almost perfectly, but the damn Canopy kept opening and shutting in flight. the F/A-18 ones from 3 different Planes … the "SHOOTCUE" stayed on all the time. a couple of F-5 ones …. the speed indicator box was empty and the missile lock box was inconsistent. The best temporary solution I have found is the Canopy from the "EF-2000 EuroFighter _RAF". everything functions as it should, the "SHOOT" indicator in a set of lights on the HUD display mounts, and a circle when in Combat MODE, so there is one. It's a pretty easy swap too. All you need is the "Canopy" folder and the COCKPIT and AVIONICS ini files. I was going to make another video …. but I kind of like leaving off with that whole "can you help this little Pony" bit … :)

  13. embedding videos

    FETCH2015 replied to mue's topic in Site Support / Bug Reports / Suggestions

    just copy the URL and paste it in the post you make. It's best to past the link on a line by itself, it just embeds from that URL link.
  14. I forgot how to add the WE-177A Nuclear Bomb to a Planes Inventory (specifically the B-70C Valkyrie, in this instance) I know it can be done because I did it in the past … but I just can't remember which ini files to edit. Here are the files I'm trying to use ... Plane … Bomb …
  15. Thanks ...
  16. I had an ideal for a Top Gun style Campaign using current inventory Aircraft. It could basically take the Top Gun Campaign and substitute F-16s as the initial aggressors, and F-15s as aggressors near the end. The Campaign would be about an F-15 Pilot trying to earn a spot as an F-22 Pilot. So the initial starting Plane would be an F-15, and near the end an F-22.. I think this would not only just be kick ass … but reflect how things kind of work with such a limited number of F-22s available. There could also be another Campaign included where an F-16 Jockey was given the opportunity, and he would start out in an F-16, then progress into an F-15. Along the way he proved himself and was offered a shot at an F-22. So …. You could just jump into the Campaign that ends up with you earning a spot as an F-22 Pilot, or … you could run the F-16 one, that ends where the one that starts out in the F-15 begins. (and for that matter why not make another similar one for an F/A-18 Pilot, call that Campaign "the long shot" where the best Navy Pilot was given a chance to enter the Program) Just the name "The HUNGRY RAPTORS" (for the ADD-ON) is pretty cool (just a suggestion). It would be a great way to show off and use many of the on going projects some of the talented creators here are working on. And be a great modern, current, edition to all the outstanding Add-Ons we have from the past for this game. There's no way I could pull it off I just don't know enough about the game, or have the time. But The ideal came to me, and I thought it was a good one and wanted to toss it out there.
  17. I meant to end that video with "Thanks Crusader" ... So I'll do it now ... Thanks man
  18. It's a MAJOR IMPROVEMENT … big time helps in combat. check it out …
  19. There was already an UPDATED Avionics done by Crusader here … The Cockpit that was linked in his description appears to be the same one, but I might be wrong, at any rate if you use that one. You won't notice any difference. At least I did not. https://combatace.com/files/file/12851-f-22-cockpit/
  20. My bad …. yea I meant Sidewinder ... and Thanks EricJ, at least I know it's not just me. I'm going to try swapping around a few things and see what happens. I wonder if some settings have been altered (not the customary settings) in the hopes of creating a qazi STEALH effect … ???
  21. Here is another one using combat MODE with the Bandit within visual range, and a Stinger selected. And here are the files in the RADAR folder.

  24. this is actually kind of funny after running around in circles, and I really did copy and paste the 5 actual .bmp icon file into EVERY LAST folder hoping to buck shot a solution... I thought why not just google "Strike Fighters 2 how to remove enemy map icons" and the first link on top was this so it brought me back here and the fix is just so easy … it's like turning the lights on and off ….boy I feel stupid. But I know Combat Ace will still be my friend no matter what.
  25. I've been Playing the 1996 Black Sea Crisis Campaign, BLUE, flying an F/A-18. And I was wondering has anybody been able to complete it ? I can't even get past the first mission without being shot down. I've been Playing this game for years and this is nutty. The Su-27s just come out of nowhere, never show up on the Map, and decimate everything. After 15 first mission failures I went so far as to go into the Campaign ini file and tried setting random chance to 50% for all Red Aircraft … but still there's just no way.
