Because in the centre of that diagram is the Garden of Eden, and we got kicked out of there.

The planned fix is to have a fox bite down on each wheel of the landing gear, thus anchoring the aircraft in place. Hence "No fox yet"

Aha, ok thanks for that.

So I decided to fly the "Alarm" mission without using the auto start and took a couple of minor GRAD hits whilst taking off. That killed my shkval and gun drive, but for that mission, that's not the end of the world. Later, however, my main hydro failed, which knocked out my AP channels. Also, when it came to landing, I couldn't extend my gear. I flicked the emergency hydraulics switch next to the gear handle and tried again, but to no avail. Did I miss something, or was landing very carefully on the shark's belly all I could actually do in the circumstances. I had a bit of a look in the manual, but found nothing.

Fair enough, Echo38. It's clear that TrackIR isn't for everyone. Personally, I took to it like a duck to water. I had a stiff neck sometimes when using it first, but I got used to it. Never even adjusted the sensitivity settings, but everybody is different, eh?

I have the same bug :( Easy to live with though, at least.

I'm going to have to get this eventually I reckon. It looks very good, and smooth. I hope it has the learning options of FSX

That's only partially true. Players can send red triangles to each other in A-10's

you guys rock. Bigfoot's missions plus PeterP's integration = awesome!

They did? Then I might play it a bit.

Heh. If they released DCS: Entire World, they'd clean up! I imagine developing that would cost a LOT of money, though.

I know a lot of people who really liked Flight. I'm surprised at how quickly it died. Time for X Plane to shine? Civ Flight sim seems a fairly empty genre now.

That sounds much harder to me, especially as my BS1 is a retail copy.

I'm glad the suspect has been arrested, rather than killing himself/being killed as happens so often in these situations. It gives more scope in understanding why people do such things. It's not guaranteed, but there's at least a chance. Must be terrible for those involved and their families.

Am I missing something? Who's Condemning them?

I think that's just the way the shadows are rendered. Those look about the same as I get IIRC.

In all forms of combat, if you can hit something from where it can't hit you back, you'll never lose, and will usually win (assuming your hits do damage) Watch your RWR for radar SAMS, and try to stay out of their way if you can. Stay above the engagement envelope for IR SAMS unless you have really good reason to descend. Remember that IR SAM units can be almost invisible.

Careful if you're dropping a bomb when inverted! Otherwise, I can only echo what others in this thread have said. Great but not required. It really does change the game

Nope. Unfortunately for you, that's the point of the product key and activation system.

Wargames is awesome, but hard. There's one deciding factor in picking this up, and that's if the commander can create, in real time, a mission that someone else can then jump in a vehicle or aircraft and carry out said mission, with waypoints loaded as applicable. Ie, one guy is playing RTS, and the other is his A-10 "unit" Anyone know if this is possible?

Is it possible for a commander to create flight plans/missions on the fly for A-10/KA50 pilots or tank drivers online etc? ie, my buddy is the commander, he sees an enemy threat, and creates a flight plan that I then fly?

Sorry I must have been thinking of something else. Maybe the mode where the mouse would move the view, but also retain it's switch-clicking ability. I don't know. I should shut up.

Personally, I kept BS1 downloaded, but not installed, so it takes up a bit less space. I install it temporarily when I need to install the BS2 Upgrade.

I believe that no longer works in BS2 or in Warthog. IIRC it was actually unintended (or was I thinking of something else that was technically a bug, but people liked it?)

Sorry for the double post: Still no sound? Is this no sound at all, or no training speech? Have you installed the latest DirectX9? Do you have sound issues with other games? Have you checked that your speakers are hooked up to what windows sees as your default audio device?
