  1. wait..."Kesselbrut"...dang it! last time I hire a ninja from a website...that is NOT what I...heh heh...move along...
  2. As much as I liked the idea of Rummy taking over, and a welcome step it was from Cohen...yeah, he was no McNamara but I think he tried to be. Speaking of, I used to hate McNamara, blamed him for a lot of things...then a dude had a film about the guy...I never knew such a thing was out there...OK, so McNamara was handed a flaming/steaming pile of rabid dog poop by Johnson...and McNamara never blamed either Kennedy nor Johnson, but when you start looking at things, a lot of what went wrong was politics misguided But that was then...
  3. sad...I used an "advanced" copy of Longhorn a few years ago in Thailand...man it was screaming fast...knew it would not last...it was a developmental copy / mule whatever, you know before MS dumps all the crap in it and dumbs it down so Granny can check her email... I mean, really MS can make awesome stuff, so why dont they really make a Win-X for gamers / people who know what they are doing and then make a Win - Y for everYbodY else?
  4. Wait...Bering Strait anti-shipping single missions do not work for me in WOE either... unless you go "Red Side" then they work fine, other wise I get the IP off the chart and it can not be drug back on chart...the other waypoints can be moved, but not the IP in this instance Also, same thing for the Okinawa map... Works in Red Air; ie, Soviet but not for a "friendly" type airplane So GoCal is it working for you? I even tried a desert (from SFP1) terrain and the game just switched it to a recon mission over land rather than off the chart
  5. speculating...does that mean that the new patching standard will finally put static aircraft in WOE/WOV ?
  6. needless to say it curbed my enthusiasm to speak in Thai around her, but she took at as a learning experience, she is patient that way
  7. Still admire the Wolf Pack in the background though, always a crowd pleaser
  8. "Thunderbolts to..." it doesnt matter, with Thunderbolt in the title Major Lee probably already has read it twice...
  9. awesome...now my wife will want to go to the range with me
  10. only if you are buying...and I was not insulting his moniker, just wondering what the translation is, I mean, if it is "bi - girl" then it would answer my question if any girls like flight sims but if it is "big AL" well I should probably turn off those Internet flowers And as far as WhineHQ goes, I logged more than a modicum of time at that web site...back before SFP1 was patched...unless they killed the weak and ungrateful, doubtful that it has changed much...and you are very correct, there is here and C5 and that French website with all of the cool stuff that I like to randomly download it is like a box of chocolates. Oh, and since I see so many old names from WhineHQ either here or at C5's and knowing you all have busy lives, it allows the idea to linger that it has not improved much back there
  11. I think its cricket...that baseball like game that is nothing at all like baseball...you know, throw the ball on the ground, run between two sticks, back and forth...wear a white sweater...
  12. - "the time invested has gone up geometrically" Uh...would that be a "rhombus" or trapezoid?
  13. How about that, an all-Nordic Gripen? Man, bet it plays ride of the Valkyries
  14. so that's whats wrong with it... why didnt they release LONGHORN instead?
  15. - feels more like 1,000...
  16. so did we resolve if SNOOPY in YAP actually does mark the target because I have run another set of CAS and the little liar doesnt in regular 3Wire games
  17. didnt CC3 have Grace Park in it?
  18. awesome, I have enjoyed the current release and look forward to others in the future
  19. Yep, seen it...I noticed that it had a link for the River Kwai...done it, but an interesting note..."kwai" in the Thai-language means essentially "water buffalo" but its pronounced like "Kwaaaai" as in hold that vowel for about 2 seconds...if you dont, being a tonal language, it means something very different. This I learned the hard way as I told my mother in law that I had been over the River Kwai and really enjoyed riding on it...to which she had a very odd look of concern...my wife quickly corrected me...latter I asked what I had said wrong...she told me that if you dont hold that vowel it is a different word, as in male reproductive organ and not in a nice way. So, be careful of tonal languages and what you ride...
  20. Much like the F-101B...I know, I know...I should make it myself
  21. "Bi - Gal 1"...ooo...had not thought of that...maybe its both?
  22. OUCH! Ah, right in the kidney... And now you know why I am registered with the Communist Party of North Amerika...some people say that is throwing my vote away and I ask them what they got for the last 8 years or the 8 years before that? And dont even mention Al Gore, who no doubt will run again...come on man, a Nobel Prize for a frakkin slide show? I should dust off some old briefings of mine, maybe they will make me SG of the UN... Heck, he even admitted it was a slide show he did years ago (think it was in über-geek magazine) then they gave him what an academy award, keys to the city, and now a Nobel Prize...I feel sorry for the guy that lost
  23. Kevin, I think that the anti-shipping issue is with WOE itself as every terrain that I have tried has the same issue (but only with Blue Air as Red Air anti-boat missions work well). Posted it over at 3Wire and TK said he would look into it. It seems that the IP gets hurled off the map, and while other WP are "draggable" in the mission map planning screen, the IP is visible, but unmoveable... this drives me nuts as I think I am one of four people who actually use the anti-boat missions (especially with a Super Etendard around now) so back to CAS and "Y" and watching that liar SNOOPY saw "rocking my wings now", but he does not...
  24. man, you should warn people that the link was to WhineHQ...damn now I have to reformat my hard drive like 16 times... I was just wondering last week why there never was a BONE built for this game But is his moniker "bigal1"...as in large lady one...hope that is a reference to the B-1
