  1. Oh I forgot to mention my monitor has a variable aspect, hence not all these pictures are the same resolution :P Just realised you name is frogfoot, that right?
  2. I like that picture a lot. Wish I could fly formation like that, the my plane can keep fairly near but goes all over the place, don't know how you keep steady. My Monitor has a massive resolution so all I do is press printscreen and done ¬_¬
  3. I'll play you soon then, I ordered my copy on Amazon on Friday, will take a while to download the patches though, I have over 700MB to get up to the current version and i don't have a connection near as good as what you're getting :(
  4. Silly Frazer!
  5. You can get Armed Assault at the same link I provided. EDIT: in case your lazy; http://www.direct2drive.com/2/4000/product/Buy-ArmA:-Armed-Assault---Combat-Operations-Download
  6. Two more pictures to prove to you that they aren't obviously joined (and if you can see the join then you have great eyes!)
  7. You've obviously never been on a real train have you!
  8. Meh, in future projects add some more slots to units please :D
  9. If you want Falcon 4 Allied Force you can download and buy that at Direct2Drive. http://www.direct2drive.com/1/903/product/Buy-Falcon-4.0:-Allied-Force-Download
  10. Disso: actually it's a series of 8 photos stitched together, 4 on the top and 4 on the bottom. If by the obvious join you mean the line alongside the runway then like Frazer said that is a glitch of LockOn (next time I will choose more carefully :P) Frazer: Yeah my wingman (AI) refused to fly at that altitude and was out of shot of this picture.
  11. Not much editing and a poor choice of picture (too obvious it's from a video game :P) This was a test to see if it would work making a panorama of this size. Oh and just noticed the foreground blurring isn't feathered enough :( Image-shack seems to have resized my picture without my permission! the original was 4259x1557 pixels so it was a panorama and not simply cropped :P EDIT sorted out image-shack, but can't edit my post to warn dial-up users so they'll get a fun surprise.
  12. Unless it's a non-standard .wav file or is corrupted it should work. What does the error message say? Could tyr winamp to be sure but VLC pretty much covers most formats and I presume wave.
  13. I like the inside a lot, having workstations and tools and things is great. My only criticism is that the outside texture is a bit bland from the screenshot at the bottom of that thread you linked but the lighting makes it appear to be a single block of colour.
  14. Ha hitman has such conveniant icon placement on his desktop I see!
  15. Probably died after that 5 months. I'd like to give it a listen, might be worth adding to the game as a quiet background effect in cockpit, for atmosphere seeing as it's an hour in length so would take awhile to loop.
  16. Hah ignore what I said, I didn't yet read IguanaKing's post which explains itr all :P
  17. Should have mentioned that too. yeah because they wanted to fit a wide weapons channel between the engines so they are further from the centreline increasing their moment, a coupling effect ensues and with a large power differential the plane can spin. I'm other aspects of the design also have an effect on this spinning too which would explain why other fighters tend not to encounter this type of trouble.
  18. I understand your point. The reason strikemax made the model (I think) was because either we didn't know ED was currently working on a model, or that if they were it would have been a long time before we'd get our hands on it. It's still not known if ED's model will appear in BS so could be a year or two before we see it. In the mean time Strikemax's model would be much appreciated. The community unfortunetaly does not knwon all of ED's plans so it is difficult to coordinate work like this. The other reason is choice, yes in a small community like this it seems a waste to have two great models of the same thing but I guess some people like to choose between the two.
  19. Maybe the older versions were less realistic? I doubt many could answer that exactly as few if any here have flown flankers. I'm sure there's data about that though. The asymmetric thrust for example is probably more realistic now. Unless one engine is afterburning and the other is at 0% I doubt the plane will spin. Tomcats had that problem but I haven't heard much about it on other aircraft. If you lose one engine on LockOn what tends to happen is the working engine maxes out at 100% (no afterburner) and the other idles. So the power ratio between them is not too high, whereas the tomcats that had this problem IRL would spin when only one afterburner ignited (the F14As engines were unreliable) Don't know if that helps explain anything, yeah I know it's difficult to compare F14s and Su27s but it was the only real life comparison I could think of.
  20. 'System What's in the Military Manuals folder? They flight manuals or the field manuals for the Army?
  21. Heh and to think you could have lead a huge mob to torch down his house only to find he was a company rep :P
  22. Strikemax certainly wasn't messing when he was working on it, the attention to detail and added effects (e.g. condensation being implemented on the LERX) was very impressive. You shouldn't get put off by the importance of a model or the responsibility of taking on a building task. Your work is easily good enough for the game also. Good luck with your future projects - and the new computer.
  23. You sure it's his? all I'm saying is be careful you're not blaming so unfortunate innocent.
  24. Search that IP stated in the OP on google and you'll see they've done plenty of spooking.
  25. Heh I'm going to up my expectations loads if you say that. Might reinstall the whole set of patches and addons when it's released. Then play the game on v1.00 before installing the rest to appreciate BS even more :D
