...and a 75 missile loadout, is that real? Or how about cloud view when you have a bandit on your six? The graphics (outside the cockpit) look stunning, and the game does have some kind of 'realism' setting, but i was very dissapointed in the arcade route they took with this game... but maybe ill rent it and play on my 360 to check out the multiplayer, might be fun!

I think I just threw up a little in my mouth......

Yeah, cowfreak, I can comfirm that... file is ...1C/EagleDynamics/Ka-50

I printed out the pages in the manual that deal with startup, and make my own notes at the edges of these.... and besides that, there is always practice, practice and more practice...

Ahhhh, the upper rotor is farther up the mast and away from CG; hence the slight right bank in the coaxial helicopter.... I was a little puzzled why a coaxial would have the same tendancy as a single rotor heli....now i know... Thanks AirTito!!

wow, good work.... man i need to learn how to skin.

Haha, very amusing, dont be too hard on yourself, that wasn't bad flying at all!! totally suitable music too!

Thanks for the reply, will try this week!

Well, im running in DX10 by default, i do this to force back to DX9!

This sounds like something interesting that i might want to try... If you've got time Reticuli, I've got two questions: 1. I run the newer .pr0 software with my vanilla x52; will that work or do i need to use the older .dat software from saitek? 2. Assuming I cannot run my .pr0 profile with this and I switch to .dat.... Can i still use the Saitek software to program my stick, and if not, what do i use to program the stick? (I only ask this because you say you only have the y. rot progged.)

Hey shrubbo, post some more!! I dont have ultra wide screen, but will still use one!

Who? lol

thats good... never heard the term 'walt' before now... in canada its simply called a 'poser', but walt is good as well...

Hah, funny OT discussion guys...there are more 'armchair warrior' types online than real warriors in RL. If you ever need proof, just visit the americasarmy forums and start a thread/poll entitled "Who are the best SF units in the World?"

That 21cm fan could explain your lower temps!! I had my rig built for me; but if i could make the decision over again I would have built it myself....the guy who did it did a crappy job at cable management. BS probably tops out at around 6 ghz IMO... if not 8ghz!! Not sure what the practical diff is between E0 and C0... but i've read that power cons. and temps are very different... Perhaps the FSB speed as well??

There is also a 'forward or rear hemisphere' aspect button/switch i believe, maybe that is the problem.... in any case read the manual.

What program are you using to monitor temps? I had my E8500 @ 3.4 with stock cooler and running BS it got up to high 50's C. I knocked it back down to 3.3 just till my vendetta arrives. I use CoreTemp to monitor my cpu.

Thanks for the correction EB.

Thanks... this video was partly to show off the excellent canadian skin, but i spent a lot of time doing the editing and learning things. Already hard at work on my next video... will hopefully include text, credits, effects and music!

Nice write up Ivan!! Other than the info on HDG Hold, very well presented. re: HDG Hold, from the manual... "When in flight director mode, the task of the pilot is to maintain the angular position of the helicopter with the cyclic and the altitude with the collective by using the directors indicated on the HUD and ADI. This mode is most often used instead of automatic enroute flight. To disengage the automatic mode and enable director control, it is necessary to press the "ДИР УПР” (FLT DIR) push-light on the Autopilot panel. By disengaging automatic control, the automatic angular stabilization is disabled but damping remains for all channels. " I'm 90% certain that by 'all channels' they mean HDG and Alt channels. Somebody correct me if im wrong.

i notice a big difference in quality on YT @ half size. also im not worried about HDD size.

Looks good vik, i can hardly wait for the release!!

I use Fraps (which i had to pay for) to capture, VirtualDub (which is free @ virtualdub.org) to compress, and I use the free Xvid codec in Vdub to encode with. I used to use WindowsMovieMaker, and tried the trial version of Vegas, but didn't like the quality in either. If i could get the simplicity of WMM in vdub, i would be laughing... BTW, i capture in full definition, (1680x1050), so at times i could have up to 80 GB of vid which mostly gets deleted immediately. After compression, a 5 minute video is around 700-800 mb in size. I do NOT have to resize to get it on youtube, and anyone can play the HD version there. For an example of my latest video, check the thread on this forum 'Canadian Camo Vid' and tell me what you think of the quality. I haven't bothered messing with any effects or titles, that vid is pure Fraps and Vdub with Xvid codec. link: http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=bQM4mBO3dz8 ....and watch in HD of course!

Here's a vid i did using Blitz-Hawks awesome canadian skin... little action in the last half so stick with it! http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=bQM4mBO3dz8

do they work with russian version??
