after hitting the dizzy heights last night in his ufo spitty BG has decided to open new chapter for high flyiers

just thought it was

happy thanksgiving to our colonial cousins ~s~ Dave

thats what Iv got mate - you will be very happy with em Im sure

from ukded2 last night

spot on sunflower thanks for the kind words about my guide but not quite authoritative as it doesnt include clouds line , It was produced just before that patch and I havnt updated it since

gosh every day is a school day - what a clever wee idea

One of the worst things for me in this sim is my difficulty in spotting dots and aircraft against the ground. It is ok on desert maps or winter maps but some others really Piss me off. So Id like you all to help be offering tips and to post your graphics settings under the following headings- Thanks in advance the only thing I cant change is my card and resolution which is 1280 x 1024, because if I change this it causes graphical glitches and crashes. GRAPHICS CARD= DRIVERS DISPLAY PROPERTIES RESOLUTION= AA

UK only mate- http://www.pacific-fighters.com/en/home.php?skin=S2 however Shockwave caved after user pressure and distributed full manuals to all for its WOV BOB II release after initially only doing it in

nice bird - Ill vote for her as mascot- she will need her own callsign tho DD_Pepe

hi mate nice finds on the DVDs one point "angels " was the code for height

not sure if this is possible , but do you need all those skins? you could copy them all over to a second drive then prune out all the ones you dont use in your main Il2 skins folder,

as far as I know the 46 dvd will be the final dvd version and the patch announced the final patch to clear up any issues with dvd release and to include the maps

Yep 46 isnt out and a final patch 4.08 is announced see here http://www.simhq.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb ... 855#000031 One good thing is the norway map is to be included so you can fly from scotland ( Banff)

check that you dont have push to activate selected - and check any key binds they might interfere with something else.

new release delayed until 8/12/06 - rats just ordered it last night

I am hoping to put together a short film on how to use this- WTF is it some may ask well here is some VERY interesting links if you are into finding out more on air combat. http://www.d-n-i.net/second_level/boyd_military.htm and http://www.d-n-i.net/boyd/pdf/boydaerialattack.pdf Ill let you all know how I get on with this, its my first attempt at a film so could be a while. Delta

The plan is to get something down on the OODA loop and how your choices and decisions during a flight are what matter. It was sparked by this quote from someone on warclouds " ...the success or failure of combat boils down to which pilot makes the fewer mistakes. Period. Always been that way and always will be. The flight or aircraft attributes play a much smaller factor than what people think. If you blame the aircraft for getting killed you aren't learning anything. ....the problem isn't in the aircraft. It's either the tactics, or the observe, orient, decide and act thought process of the downed pilot was slower than the one that scored the victory." there might also be a wee bit on the particular types of aircraft - energy fighter vs turn fighter and how to try to use them to their strengths but I dont want to overload the audience or stray too far from trying to get folk to use the OODA loop more as a tool to help stay alive. hartmann he used the same method - calling it the coffee break. "See - Decide - Attack - Coffee Break": observe the enemy, decide how to proceed with the attack, make the attack and then disengage to re-evaluate the situation. Famously, Hartmann once described dog-fighting as "a waste of time". Ill keep you all posted with progress but might take a while as its the first time Iv tried this and I need to work with painless to get his input as well so we get 2 sides to a situation.

thanks guys, I have movie maker so just need to get fraps. I plan to do a short training film based on a track of one of our fights, painless and I are going to attempt to commentate on the fight from 2 different sides with 2 dissimilar planes ( a fw190 and spit.) I need to plan it out -what exatly I want to do and the best way to present it and I dont want to make it too long so I dont bore the pants off everyone.

told you Rog would know .......

because scarey glasgow car salesmen freak me out BLouse !!! Take the girlfriend along - get her to put on her angry face - the one you get when you have been playing il2 for 4 hours and you promised to take her out .... in a minuite. get her to nurse her wrath and keep it warm .... then unleash her full fury on the bloke and watch him crumble.

We remember them. All of them. In Flanders fields the poppies still grow. ~S~ Dave

take it back - tell the service manager exactly your concerns - it should have been serviced and MOted for you at the garage as part of the sale. It sounds more and more like the battery as it could have been sitting idle on a forecourt for a while. Squeeking is normal on a new set of pads as they bed in so that might be the case here A 7 yr old motor will have the odd squeek and rattle but shouldnt be anything that would cause you concern You should still have a cooling off period so threaten to return the car and get your money back if not satisfied, that should get you a new battery and set of pads if required. A mechanical warrenty wont cover things that wear out
