    GO AWAY.....

    Wait...there are writers? BSG? I really enjoy that one...man, the terrorists-based episodes were hard for me, but then that was their point...not afraid to tackle difficult issues...and there Olmos rocks!
  3. I cant believe Dallas lost...not a fan and I like Eli, but did not expect that And yea! Indy is out...figured one of the Manning offspring would keep going, but it turned out better than expected
  4. I have used Alpha Sim for years and when they dropped a T-34C, I was one of the first in line...really looked great (heck, you could almost smell the popcorn-vomit) but one thing I did not like was the FM's treatment of landing Needless to say I did more than one T&G in that beast and in the game, even doing 1/6 of the allowable sink rate on touch down yielded a bounce in the game. This is not realistic at all. Especially for a plane that you buy to do endless T&G work in really. Obviously a FM guru could fix it in a second, but my MSFS-tweaking days seem as long ago as before I could shave. Do you have any MSFS-tweaking skils? PM to me, please cheers
  5. Was wondering if there is a fix for the Su-15 radar. Heard that some changes were made from tga to bmp after a patch, but when I switched the radar.tga for a radar.bmp (a la MiG23) it looked the same. There are some other tga in the Su-15 cockpit folder, are these causing it? Any help would be appreciated cheers
  6. yep, even games that taut "merged installs" can leave you vulnerable...for instance the iL-2 series...if you want to play on line then you have to have exactly what someone else has, and if your buddy didnt do a merged, then you have to start over.
  7. uh...thanks...I know...I was making a comparison to just how long 3,000 hours is...sorry that my odd sense of humor is confusing at times. In order to garner 3,000 hours in a type, given that typical sortie duration is less than a 1.3 it would take years. apologies if I seemed more ignorant than I usually am

    GO AWAY.....

    lucky I have my DVD set of ATHF, Dr Who, and @si@n vixens !
  9. maybe I installed the carrier wrong...I tried to follow the knowledge base, but what coordinates do I set for a WOE install?
  10. very nice! ...I had no idea
  11. Yep, name it something else or else take your original install and name it something different...easy to undo latter.
  12. installed it but the missions are not showing up...man what am I doing wrong now?
  13. man...this makes me want to try OTC...so I need a new install for it?
  14. did you try the Madagascar map? Not tropical, but cool!
  15. I still say start a separate install and only add one plane...see if it works...you are not deleting your old one, just making a new one...besides, you can then remove the test bird and use that as your on line option
  16. man...hard to imagine all of these options...I remember when we finally got rockets added to the game it was like Superbowl Sunday...
  17. Man, that is 125 days dealing with students in a machine all too willing to kill you both...unlike the docile 'tweet or beloved turbo-mentor, the Talon (or whatever it is you like to call it) gets ugly quickly the closer you get to pK=1 How do you like flying for FedEx? I used to work for UPS...
  18. NOT a pat fan here...
  19. Thanks!
  20. same for the tip-rails on a Viper... so you think it is accurate? Hmmm...the random mission in WOE pitted my 2x F-104G against 4xMi-24...obviously this was a perfect mix-match...but the fact that I was able to sustain a turn at 320 KIAS at 3000 should tell you that either I am remarkable (yes, I know) or else the model is too forgiving. Note that the comment is "missile" and not "rocket" enormous difference there. And while it has stubby wings, that T-tail is not much smaller than the wings, which certainly lends to maneuverability but you have your answer above, he found the link for you
  21. didnt know there was a dedicated one...just kind of installed a bunch of stuff over time...awesome idea though, one stop shopping
  22. I would not say never happen...
  23. wait a minute...what is it that you want?
  24. personally, I try to change only one or two things at a time, start the game and see what happens...sounds like you maybe made a lot of changes in a short time...that will be very difficult to trace the error originator best bet is to start backing things out, or preferably to make a fresh install, add one plane that is giving you problems to see if it works in the fresh install (in this example, you would have two installs, the current one, and one to test the planes) it does not sound like a simple problem, unfortunately
