What is the best fighter jet in the world currently? Now think about deployability, cost, combat effectiveness etc. Please don't flame, and keep your opinions open.

Hey guys, long time no see. Been busy with life and all. Anyways, just decided to play some lockon the other day and couldn't help but notice the new F15 model. Installed and it wow, it looks pretty amazing. Just one question, will it be added to BlackShark as an official version of the model or is that a no go?

The maximum range for an average human eye is 10-15km. I guess fighter pilots can see around 20km. But that's stretching it on a clear, 0 haze day.

Interesting

Oh wow, this is cool. Can someone tell me what's updated in this model (when compared to the old one)? And how much of a FPS loss are we talking about here. ED should integrate this model into 1.2 Blackshark when it comes out.

That sounds exactly like how conspiracy theorists cook up conspiracies when there is a simple explanation (like the civil engineering explanation).

Great, shooting tanks with 8 guns is fun!

So I loaded my Su25T up with 4 gunpods, thinking I can unleash a whirlwind of hell with my 9 GSH cannons. But when i fired only 1 fired (the main gun). Can't seem to find any key combination to get them to fire. Help?

Are you kidding me? Give me a Su 27 and I'll show you how it's flown. And btw are you playing Lockon 1.0? 'Cause they had a bug, which has been fixed in 1.02 AND Su27 was modernized in 1.1. Either it's that, or you're turning the Su at 1000km/h. I can definetly outturn a F-15 in a turn and burn fight. BTW, Su33 and Su27 are practically the same aircraft.

Iguanaking, thanks for such a gracious offer. I'm in Canada so I guess I am part of US lol. Well, I went to school and abused their super fast wireless internet until I donwloaded a fifth copy that worked.

Edit: Nevermind, 5th download worked.

I'm just curious how my file got corrupted since they both have exactly the same number of bytes as the "correct" one. Well, I guess I'll just go to school and abuse their 20mbit internet connection and download it repeatedly.

I have the same problem. But mine is downloaded. And it IS NOT CORRUPT (the file size is exactly the same and I have downloaded it over 3 times - 6 hours worth of downloading.)

So I finally bit the bullet and bought Flaming Cliff's over the internet. Waited an hour for it to download (slow internet) using FlashGet. Checked the file sizes, okay perfect. Delete Lockon, fresh install CD. Click the install flaming cliffs file. Next next next ERROR 3!!!! Okay, wait... read online... okay file corruption. That's alright. Redownload... 2 hours later... Click, next next next ERROR 3. Now that is just pissing me off. Hmm anyone have a solution to this problem? I'ts not file corruption, 'cause it doesn't even start installing.

Well that's the problem. I got the picture back on the Ubisoft forums (I think someone posted it) but that's a vague memory, I could've gotten it else where. The only reason I really want it back is I was surfing around and saw that picture in the original post. It was a really really good backgound, great for wide screen and really magnified one of my favorite aircraft.

Hi guys, I've had this picture: In a really large resolution for a while, but I lost it. It was one of my favorite wallpapers (I even had it noise reduced and everything). Anyone have the high resolution version of it?

Here's the revised sig for Hitman I found this sitting in my comp I dunno if I made it a while ago or something but here's one for GA:

Now I love all this effort going into new models, but some of them have just a little too much detail. I'm hoping for an increase in quality of the models in lockon but not a very large decrease in FPS. Some of these models have DOOM 3 like pilot models (look at that F-15 one). They look great, but since you barely even see the pilot, why go so far for so little result? So example, I see the great amount of detail going into the landing gear, but how much FPS is lost when you deploy them? Well, I'm just voicing my concern for these potentially great looking models that not many people can use if they are way too detailed. So modelers, please remember not to go overboard on the polygon count. Keep on modelling!

Go to my website and look at "illustrate"

Fighter Ops... either is a huge vapor ware or the biggest sim in history. I'll rate it some number between here and mars out of 9

Flawless Execution 8/10 becase of its beauty, grace, but questionable lethality :P

Well, game is simple, rate the person above you's signature. Provide some interesting feedback or give it a rating out of 10. For example, I give the person above me 0/10 because they don't exist.

Cool

Ooh, can't wait for more Bill et John!
