Anyone got or can make a .trk file of them refueling? Hopefully one that has them refueling in one go till their tanks are full and they are asked to disconnect(If they do? I've never filled up to full before so I don't know.:music_whistling:) Thanks.

Isn't Beta 5 coming out in about a week or so as well.:huh:

In Firefox I'm getting invisible patch screen too. It showed up for me in Internet Explorer though. :hmm: Try that.

Hey Kingsnake, How have you setup your taskbar icons to work? I notice you have two IE icons. I take it one launches the application and the other is the actual running of the program. How is this achieved? When I click IE it makes that icon boxed to show it is running. It doesn't create a seperate icon which is what I would rather happen.

The female voice in the cockpit that says stuff like "Pull up, Pull up" and "altitude, altitude." I guess no one knows how to turn her volume down.:unsure:

There's a master and 8 volume knobs on the back left panel.:huh: I've turned all 8 of them down as well as the Master volume knob. Nothing shuts her up short of turning the helmet option down in the game audio controls, but this affects more than just Betty. Betty isn't mentioned in the manual and I found this thread but it's gone OT. Does anybody know for sure how to turn the Betty volume down?:helpsmilie:

Yes. 1.02 was the last patch. http://www.ubi.com/UK/Downloads/Info.aspx?dlId=576

G'Day Matt. I think here might be a good place to start. http://www.simmerspaintshop.com Look for LOMAC in the tutorial section. Good luck.:thumbup:

Hahaha.:lol: If the Beta wasn't out yet, everyone would be voting yes and screaming for blood if not released this year. I too am glad the Beta is out and can wait till next year for the official release. I've only noticed a few issues but they have already been reported. My wish, even before Beta 4, is that they inform us of what the next aircraft will be.:music_whistling:

Thought I'd share some triple screen, screen shots.

Rain on canopy effect. Might be hard enough to see targets already, but if this is anything like it is in a real life cockpit, I hope it can be implemented later on. The water streak one(the second one) seems realistic to me for an aircraft. Maybe a little bit of the third one as well.:music_whistling: Couldn't get any real aircraft cockpit footage to compare it to. All I get is FSX in rainy weather.:doh: Cool affects anyway.

That image is a huge, 6175 x 3800. What resolution screen(s) you running?:huh:

And the AH-64 turns into a fighter most probably.:dunno: I knew I read somewhere that the AH-64 was after the A-10. But mind you that post is over 3 years old so things have changed. What ever they decide I'm happy with, but I can only hope it is the AH-64. If not the next model, because there would be an uproar by the fighter jocks, the one after that. That would be cool. :prop:

It is a joke the prices we have to pay. I guess it's the lack of competition here which allows PC Aviator to charge the ridiculous price they do. $550 isn't too bad though and worth the piece of mind for warranty purposes. If bought from the US, would hate to post that big bad sucker back there.

Hahahaha. How convenient. :) Support ED and BUY Black Shark! Help them be able to make your supersonic Russian plane. Want next plane - Harrier Want next chopper - Apache Think next - Eagle

That is way cool. I would definitely enjoy one of those.:surprise: I take it, it is recognized as a separate keyboard and doesn't interfere with your standard keyboard plugged in at the same time. Does it come with software so you can program it or do you have to program it inside the simulators GUI? Makes the clickable cockpit obsolete.:cry:

Ok. This 'How To' is seven pages long and I'm thinking that maybe the description on page one is no longer valid. Or could it just be a mistake I'm making? I have a skin that I made awhile ago, it worked, but after patch 1.01 was appearing invisible. I have now decided to fix whatever was going wrong, but now it isn't even showing up in the game skin selection list at all. I installed my skin with ModMan 7.3 and got the green bar indicating that it was installed correctly but it didn't show up in game. I then repackaged my skin following the instructions on page one but still a no go. If the description on page one is still correct, I don't know what I'm doing wrong. If anyone's interested, who knows what their doing, to have a look at the file and see what is going wrong, would be much appreciated. Below is a screen shot of when it was working.

I've had both :joystick: and although there is no twist rudder on the CH fighterstick, the precision between the two is vastly different. CH equipment is leaps and bounds ahead of the X-52. The aircraft moves exactly where you want it to. Definitely get some pedals later on though.

Well it's almost Australia Day here in Oz, so I thought I'd release a skin to celebrate the fact. I've had this skin sitting on my hard drive for a while and haven't quite finished it, but it's not too bad. I'll probably never be happy with it(skinners know what I mean). My hard drive died over the Christmas holidays, and luckily I made several back ups of it on my second hard drive. Just not sure which Zip is the best one. I'd rather see it go to use than fade away into my distant memory. Like I said. It's not quite finished but I don't know when I'll have time to install Black Shark and work on it again. If there is enough interest , I'll release it after I get somebody to test it. Obviously I can't test it to see if the Zip works. I made it to be ModMan compatible. These are the only images I have on my hard drive of the skin. LoGo.bmp

What? You only just had a birthday. Wow! The older I get, the quicker the years go by. Happy Birthday mate.

Thought this was pretty interesting and that the tower controller was pretty reckless. The pilots waiting for take off saved a disaster by using common sense and not just doing what the controller said.

Happy Birthday Bro!!

I have only recently noticed a problem with my Laser Standby Switch(LSS for short, too long to write every time). I lock a target then turn on the LSS and re-lock the target and the distance to target comes up on the Shkval. If it is still out of range of weapons, I switch it off again. After closing the distance some, I redo the process. Ok, the problem is that after I lock the target, the distance comes up and then I click the LSS to the off position, the distance to target SOMETIMES doesn't disappear like it normally does. It's like a roll of the dice. I am clicking it using my mapped joystick button. The reason I do this is I don't want to burn the Laser out. Is this also part of the known bug or am I the only one with this problem. Makes it hard to know weather the LSS is on or off without having to look at the physical position of the switch.

I always have this problem when I put auto hover on when I'm near a hill. I just put it down to the wind draft.

I some-times(most times) load Black Shark up just to flying around. If I had to pick one for transport missions, the CH-53 Sea Stallion would be it. That thing can carry almost anything. Other contenders(troop carriers)...... Black Hawk Puma Iroquois And last but not least, can't forget The Hind.
