Fruitbat,
What is your water settings in your ini file and what type of graphic card do you have. Your water looks really natural ! wow.
i run water=2 in the ini file, water=4 is to big a hit down really low, even on my system, at wave top height fps drops to about 30fps instead of 60 with water=2. My card is a nvidia gtx280. However, i also use a water mod and the sun reflection mod that were done by OLC, found here,
Also i've changed the colour of the water on that map, as i prefer blue to grey...

Hi Rattler, heres the link for the campaign, for your conveniance
its a really well done historical campaign, if you read Al Deeres book, you almost know whats coming next, and as the map is 2/3's scale, fuel is locked at 66%, so flying to france from hornchurch doesn't give you much over france, and its a common sight to see 109's turning for home later in the battle which adds to the historical flavour. I've got Fighter Boys too, its definatly a good read, and you get to fly the 54 squadron missions that that book references as well, good fun tangaling with Gallands fighters in the Battle of the Thames Estuary! If you do decide to fly it, be prepared to be bounced by the hun in the sun!!!

Heres a few, ahem, of an offline campaign i've been enjoying at the moment, Nine lives, based on Al Deeres book about 54 squadron during Dunkirk and through the Battle of Britain. This is an early mission to fly over Dunkirk to try to protect the beaches, unfortunatly the luftwaffe was waiting

Great campaign, well worth a go if the Battle of Britain interests you, and Sow seems to far off, lol,

Also i'm using OLC's improved water and reflection mods, which improves the refection from the sun in the water.
Where can I find that water and reflections mod?
you can find it here.
to be honest i'm not sure i really see much difference with the water on water=2, but to use the relection mod have to use the water mod, and i do prefer the reflection mod.
anyway, read the thread to see what others have found, and give it a whirl.

i guess some of you will probally have seen this before, but for those that haven't, very amusing

enjoy!
PS, how can i link it so it shows in this post, rather than having to go external to watch it?
GreyKnight says - p.p.s Fruitbat, use the MEDIA option on the far right of the post menu to enclose the YouTube link with the
[media]
tag.

When I make those gun cam videos from screenshots I take all of the FRAPS screenshots(convert to JPEG in Irfanview) into Windows Movie Maker and create a slideshow and save as a movie.
It looks like a choppy movie but it's actually screenshots taken every half second and played back at .35 seconds - about a 3FPS movie but you can set whatever delay you want in WMM.

Once it's a movie you should have no trouble burning to DVD.
Thank you, thank you.
Would never have thought of using Windows Movie Maker to create a screenshot 'movie', but it works perfectly, just import the photos, drag them on to the bottom, set time delay and burn, really really easy to do,

i've only got nero 7, and again that only burns slideshows to cd.
Its irritaiting that i can burn video to DVD's but not slideshows
So you rekon if i download the nero 9 trial i might have some luck?
-
i can only see burn to CD in infraview,
i 've got various things that burn slideshows to CD's but its to a DVD i'm looking for, will have to check and see if theres a newer version of infraview than mine, and its now an option.
@jabo, nope DVD+R's.
-
Title says it all really, anyone know of any good and pref free software to turn the many photos from my digital camera into a slideshow dvd, rather than just a data storage dvd?
It may be that i'm just being a bit of a retard, but i don't seem to be having any success, with stuff that i have.
cheers fruitbat

Fruitbat,
What settings and/or mods do you have going to get those kind of shots. They look FAN-tastic!.

i run il2 at 1920*1200, with 16xq aa, 16x af, water=2, landgeomerty=3, no texture compression, and mod wise in that screenshot the map is redkos retextured palau map which is a work of art, i also enable a prop mod for screenshots, although not for flying, always run OLC's water mods, cause they give a better sun reflection imo, and in JSGME effects=high, uranium effects, and modded clouds light, thats about it really.
-
nah, thats bombsaways stuff, he made those water/coral textures, and damn good they are. i just know how to apply textures to maps and do repainting, change water colour etc, and other map editing stuff (map_c, map_h etc), I've made some very basic maps for myself just messing around and experimenting. The only texture stuff i've done creatively was work out how to do tree files for textures, and do them for some of compans textures when they first came out, ages ago.
the map in those screenshots is actually redko's repaint of the stock palau map, and he incorperated bombsaways water and coral textures into that repaint. Also i'm using OLC's improved water and reflection mods, which improves the refection from the sun in the water.
the repaint is available from aaa, link below,

i'm using it in conjunction with uranium.
I've just got uranium enabled first, then this mod after through the switcher, and when you go to enable the smoke mod through the switcher, this comes up,
just click yes to enable, its just changing the smoke effects from uranium to these, the files its flagging up are the 'original' uranium fire smoke effects, this is the overwriting i was talkiing about, my bad, should of explained it better.
Its designed to work/add on to uranium, so you guys shouldn't be having problems, as long as you do what i've shown,
hope this helps,

lol, fair enough
-
i'm getting lock on soon, flatspinman is sending me his copy of it, which is jolly decent of him, will i be able to buy this add on for that, or do i need something different?
by the way, don't know if you know about this, 6dof mod for FC2, posted by gorz, at ubi,
-
well used it online tonight, no problems at all, looked really good saw it several times, lol
-
Hi toad,
its a new mod this week that is designed to work with Uranium effects, just changes the smoke from fires, and you enable through jsgme. I've been using this week and will use it online tonight for a trial, but no obvious fps peformance loss that i've seen so far on my system.
Its possibly a little over the top, but it does look damn good, i got it from here, but its at SAS and AAA as well,
just enable through jsgme, and overwrite the 4 or so files from uranium that it flags up.

hmmm, new hellcat,

only just seen this thread,
don't know if you know, but i've got a little mod, which removes icons from any track (and game) when enabled, regardless of in game icon settings.
I always use it for screenshots to remove icons from my tracks, can dig it up if someone wants it.
