My Final submission to ScreenshotArt.com

Hi ! My second camo : the scheme of the venezuelian Su-30 on a su-27. I made it blue, though some references says the real one is shades of grey. Hope you enjoy ! The original template is from "Flanker", with minor modifications... You can download it here : http://www.checksix-fr.com/bibliotheque/index.php?page=detail&ID=5294 Two versions : with and without markings.

True but carpet-bombings provoked shear terror because of their randomness which was a useful advantage. Unless you're a dictator in a bunker I doubt many civilians would be scared - after all in war you want to scare the population to start a revolt to attack the government with it's own people. After writing that I realised that same trade-off is true with nuclear arms too (though to the average person all nukes are probably the same - a nightmare)

Hehe, :) :joystick:

LED monitors coming out very soon.

Hehe, yes just like wasserfall says your nice comments are of great help, they are really motivating to make this project work.:) Thanks for the offer, :joystick:

I use a keyboard controller from an old PS/2 keyboard to connect to the PC. The controller will be connected to an interface I'm still working on, which in turn will be connected to ten pulse generators which will be triggered by the switches. The buttons will be connected directly to their corresponding pins in the keyboard matrix. This way, when I flick a switch or press a button, Lock On receives a normal keystroke as if I were using the keyboard :) Here are some pics showing what I'm working on: 1. Mapping out the keyboard matrix (this has to be done for every type of keyboard we use) 2. Three hours have passed, mapping is finally complete 3. I have connected a floppy cable to the keyboard controller (quite difficult in fact, because the connector pads have a carbon layer over them) 4. Testing the pulse generator. This will give a 0.1 second pulse to the main interface, which will then trigger the keyboard controller The LED is there to see if it works. 5. PCB design for the pulse generator is complete. I couldn't get it any smaller than this using standard components :)
