  1. I decided I needed a night skin using the 'snake skin' noise layer...
  2. Thanks BRD! :thumbup:
  3. I ran a search for 'artillery ranges', no joy. And I assume since you are pointing me to real world figures that it's been determined they correlate to the in-game performance?
  4. Does anyone have a list of the engagement ranges of the various arty pieces in the sim?
  5. http://www.armscontrol.ru/atmtc/Arms_systems/Avia/Russia/Ka50/ka50.htm
  6. I was reading an article about the KA-50 and they mention this technique called 'the funnel' where the BS flies in a circle over a target area keeping the weapons pointed at the target area (and engaging at will). This sounds difficult to fly, but IMHO would make a good sequence for a movie.
  7. Thanks! Skin is now up at Lockonfiles.
  8. Skin is up at Lockonfiles.
  9. Now that the T-Frog is done... And no I'm not releasing the Punisher pilot with the skin...that was just for fun...:pilotfly:
  10. I think I'll call it done. Should be up at lockonfiles in the next few days.
  11. Hmmm how about a Gunslinger...
  12. Or maybe greener?
  13. Hehe it should! Don't worry it was just a test...I'm going more in this direction. I call this one 'Luggage'...:D
  14. How about something like this?
  15. Thanks. I have been toying around with a 25T skin, but haven't come up with anything that's really grabbing me yet. My latest thought is that I'm going to do a throwback IL2 skin for it, but I don't know how that's going to look as most of the paint schemes were pretty simple. I did find a couple of IL2 paintjobs that have patriotic sayings emblazoned on the side like "Death to the fascistic occupiers!"...hehe When I come up with something I like it'll be posted here.
  16. I decided to rework my Punisher skin. The original was my very first skin, and I thought I could do it better now that I've learned a bit...:smartass:
  17. How about more gun based AAA? http://www.enemyforces.com/artillery/zu23.htm And this just looks cool... http://www.enemyforces.com/artillery/tos.htm And a must have....the Jaguar!
  18. Is it heresy to not have an aircraft on my desktop all the time? :D
  19. From what I've read it seems like the Cougar MAY be okay out of the box, but is way better after 100s of $$$ in mods/upgrades. IMHO the X-52 is the best cost/performance compromise out there. If you go to lockonfiles.com and look on the front page there are the results of a poll done recently about which HOTAS everyone uses. X-52 won hands down.
  20. I'm a big fan of the X-52. I've used one for 2 years with no problems whatsoever. Here's a thread from SimHQ that has lots of discussion... http://www.simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=1755387&page=0&fpart=1
  21. Is there a trick to it? I can't get it to work. Flight of 4 'excellent' F-16Cs with HARMs set to 'escort'. Set up a Hawk, and then at the edge of the hawk's detection range I set up 2 Roland ADSs along the F-16s flight path. they just fly in get shot at and then go home...they never engage.
  22. Ooooh I'm gonna have to test that....thanks! :thumbup:
  23. Something else that would be a wet dream is ADS that acts like it wants to live...waiting till the last minute to turn on their radars...only running them long enough to try to get a shot....shutting down to try and avoid an ARM shot...etc...
  24. I wish they would add a category of SEAD escort to the ME. Something like escort for A-A, where if the AI detect ADS radar within a certain range they go get 'em. Would make for more fluid mission design rather than having to specify exactly which targets the SEAD flight should attack.
  25. Thanks guys! The camo version is already up at lockonfiles, the future version should be up soon...
