Cool Caesar...I knew in the right hands it would shine...what page is your report in the DACT?
-
Thanks for chiming in Caesar...and no, I didn't mean to bait the Cat pilots...(well, sort of...)... I think a lot of pilots wrote off the 5 because of its stock FM---the MF model is a totally different rig IMHO...don't get me wrong---I love the cat and its brawlability (is that a word) its just got that special something...which ive also found in the 5...I think that's what makes SF2 so cool...so now all I need is a wingie who flies as well as you Caesar... can you hook me up?
-
Well after logging a number of Tomcat camps I can tell you the 5 can more than hold its own up against it---the docs ive seen say yes ...fine, but the MF F-5 model more than equals, and in some instances surpasses the (MF)Cat in battle...much as I love the Cat, I feel safer in the 5 even if im down to guns and dogging 4 my life.... comments?
-
Well..i just stuffed the "Tiger" into the first camp Burnsands...and ill tell ya---this puppy turns-n-burns and takes names bigtime...
This addon ship is a must-fly for Nam pilots (F-5 Early Versions Pack) ---kind of a missing piece in the VN disk...the pit is a gem, and the FM is true-blue MF perfection...
-
As you guys know im a noob... im putting together a F-5 install--- with probably the Early Versions pack, but im not sure what Nam campaign would be the best insert...can you guys give me some ideas here---I know how to insert ships into camps, so that's a plus...any comments please--Thanks Pilots..

Got up early and started over to try the TMF version (74th Flying tigers) which has a working hook, and got it placed into the Rolling Thunder Camp. Well worth the work to get the A-7D/TMF working ---its a better flight model over stock...plus its got teeth... = )
-
Thanks but im getting alittle gun-shy of too much "Messing" with files... it took me 4 hours to replace the stock A-7A to the stock A-7D (camo) for campaign use, only to find the "no arresting hook" bug of the D... its a great ship---but with no hook it cant land even on auto-pilot...
-
Thanks Guys...not a huge fan of how limited the view (even in wide) is on the latest ,buy everything works on it and the skins rock...so be it...
-
I must say the cockpit and radar are probably outdated but very cool---I can fly and fight in it but the screens are all blacked out...meaning, Im missing something?
Ive got SF2/NA/Online-update---that's it...
Your thoughts and any help with the cockpit...Thanks everyone...
-
Ok got Mues new V0.1.0 working ...so far so good...lets see if I can get my F-14 inserted...

Guys im still fighting it getting the newest extractor working with windows 8.1---if anyone has it working , can you clue me in or post a how-to. All im trying to do is add a stock tomcat into all the NA campaigns...Thanks for your help Pilots...
-
Well Sir, I came from JF15 so the old birds keep me more than happy, and even though ive messed with JFA18 and the SF2nam... SF2 and NA would be my pick---no need to pile on unless you feel you need the whole series...
-
Thanks Caesar...im still having trouble with the cat-ext, but ill get it... for now using the stock Tom, which is fine...
-
Caesar... how do you play a campaign with the new Tom?
-
Edit: Got it ...the Sparrow lights up the box (which I didn't notice with the sunlight) when its hot and ready---EZ as pie...Thanks guys...
-
HOT TRIG light on the ACM Panel, and "IN SP" or "IN PH" on the TID Repeat...ill try to figure that out, and I wouldn't ask if I had not bagged 5 birds on my first flight (norm-all-around)---I see the big circle but didn't notice any lights or ques---link to a diagram maybe?... im pretty happy how this ship fights...hella fun...
-
It seems everythings working correctly...the ship is off the hook nice...the Aim-9 gets that loud growl when locked as it should, but even though ive downed a bogie with the Sparrow...im really not sure about its fire que...theres no sound...am I missing something?---other than that---Awesome...Fightertown here I come...
-
Thanks Caesar... I put together a separate install called "Tomcat"...: SF2/NA/Tom121/Olnine-update, just to get my feet wet---I love the Tom, reminds me of the old Janes series. So how can I tell if the 1.21 is in there?
Edit: Got it---I see the new loading screen---how cool is that---ill be reading through that thread tonight---Thanks to everyone whos helped me re-engage...
-
Too Cool Caesar... the deck is the sweetspot---alittle hairy but the 7 likes it there...im going to try a few rounds more with the 7...
BTW..Which is the best Tom (mod?), and where do you fly it most...and YES...post all the Vids you want---Awesomeness
-
EZ for you to say Sheriff--- your probably a great pilot...loosing a 9 to Gs or a bad angle was happening a lot (and now im down to 1)... but I like your attitude. Ill root for ya in your A-7....
