I really would like to just get the AI A-6 and (especially)KA-6D in the game. We been seeing the AI A-6 in videos for more than a year now.

Looks outstanding! My mistake before, I mistook "being done" for "been done" -

The reason VF-14 was on my mind was that I just watched Ward Carroll's new video talking with Ted "slapshot" Carter, who was CO of VF-14 at the time. At about 21:40 he mentions that they didn't have a chance to repaint the White tail of AJ200 before the first combat mission, so he he flew in that plane himself on the first mission. -

No, I think you are thinking of the 1989 70th anniversary skins which look similar to the picture I posted. We have a few from '89, a couple from 96-97, and the CAG bird from 2001. None from the '99 cruise on CVN-71. This was the cruise when the Tophatters were teamed up with VF-41 and participated in Operation Allied Force in Kosovo -

Have any of our great skin makers thought about doing a squadron set from VF-14's '99 Combat cruise (Kosovo), when they were on CVN-71 with the Black Aces as part of CVW-8? -
Don't fly with a human RIO, just Jester, but I've been having the same datalink problems.

The low-viz VF-114 pics at that link are skins I would love to have available -
The only thing I've heard was that they fixed the night lighting

Love your squadron sets, use them all the time! Especially like the OIF VF-102 set. I hope you do some more squadron sets some time...VF-114 circa 1991 (hint hint)

If you are having this problem with Isoko's great skins, it is easy to fix. Open the .dds files in paint.net and resave (ctrl-s), but change the compression to BX3 (Linear, DXT5) and check "generate mip maps". The new file size for the large .dds files should be 21.3mb. I did this for all my Isoko skins yesterday, and it totally fixed the problem for me. -

That one (NF100 test)is definitely better for me! I assume it's because I don't have a super high resolution screen (mine is 1920 x 1080) and your skins seem tuned for higher resolution -

I have this problem too...How can I do this? What are the standard DDS settings? -

I hope you are able to make that one! We need some low-viz VF-114 skins as well as more early 90s skins. Good luck! -

The video was Amazing! When will the skins be released? I see they are still not up on the user files -

He does do point track. He has gone to point track on moving vehicles for me.

Same...average of about 7-10 FPS drop. Same on both Marianas and Syria

The deck doesn't need to be empty. You can place the SC deck crew all over the deck as you would like them in the mission editor, the only thing missing is the animated crew signaling you at the catapult (and that will probably get added later when they work it out with ED). I'm sure that they have done an awesome job making the Forrestal look amazing.

Nice! Hope to see those on the available to download -
If you drop the track after launch it is probably because the target's aspect has changed and they have turned into the notch. The radar has been working just fine.

I've had this problem as well at times
