  1. I installed Nero and Alcohol 120% way before i even got Flaming Cliffs. Guess what, I'm not going to be the one who will win the $ 1000 :cool: Oh and I forgot to mention DVDSanta and TMPGenc studio. The stupid DVD burner just keeps on functioning.
  2. :icon_supe Sir you rock!!!!!!!!!!! One of the best LOMAC movies i have ever seen.
  3. In the book "Strike Eagle Flying the F-15E in the Gulf War" by William L. Smallwood a couple of pilots over-g'd their Strike Eagles. Later they could not take on fuel with their engines running but had to taxi to the ramp. One crew over-g'd at 6.5 G so me thinks that for every loadout there is a different max G you are allowed to pull. :icon_jook
  4. Little OT perhaps but how will Black Shark perform under Windows Vista with DX10? Yes I'm worried about the new (no we are not going to be backwards compatible DX10) Windows version. I mean Black Shark is going to be released within a year ( I hope). And emulating a heavy sim like LOMAC or Black Shark will still suck the life out of any new computer the next 2-3 years. :icon_evil
  5. There are no participating teams on the Lock On part of the site. So who is going to fly?
  6. Sorry Olgerd I only bought the book at amazone. I can't remember if they sold the HUD tapes at that time (2-3 years ago).
  7. Yes I've read it. It is written like a diary. Don't expect a detailed description of how he used his weaponsystems. It is'nt a bad book, but there is to much religion involved for my taste. Greetz
  8. True and the problem here (Holland) would be the same. At the moment we (the people) would rather nuke Turkey then let them join the EU. But ask anybody on the street to point out Turkey on the map and we would have to nuke Greece. :icon_jook
  9. F-16+ECM+AMRAAM = Killer plane from Hell In LOMAC the F-16 is one heck of a killer. So yes it will kill your MiG-25 without even blinking.
  10. Cosmonaut dude thanks again. I really do appreciate the invite. If only everybody was this nice :rolleyes:
  11. manofsteel**at**chello.nl remove the * Thanks :icon_supe man
  12. "Yesir, I clicked agree, and unlike you obviously, I read it" Wrong I did read it and here is the funny part, they do not have to state the fact that the program is protected. Period, the end. I have the same game as you have and I burned 2 DVD's this morning without any problems. I have Alcohol 120% and Nero installed. Here are the specs of my gaming/internet/abuse machine; AMD 2700 XP, 1,5 GB memory, Nvidia 5700 ultra, 120 GB HDD, Audigy 2, Benq 1640 DVD burner, unkown DVD-ROM player. Its sucks having problems but this ranting will not solve the problem.
  13. Well thanks for taking over the thread. As for getting what you want. :tongue: Its never ever ever going to happen. Why? Read before you click I agree. ED is based in russia, and if their legal system works the same way as were I live, the courts will laugh and laugh and laugh etc etc. Sorry to hear you have problems, but you abused your vital IT system, if one of my customers did the same thing to their Health Care IT systems then they would be in trouble.
  14. Well first I want to thank the people who pointed me to the fact that removing the disc will stop SF checking the disc. Secondly OCing a system beyond its selling specs is....... well funny for a tweaker. If you have important data stored on a system YOU DO NOT MESS WITH IT!! YOU DO NOT PLAY GAMES ON IT!! YOU WILL WANT TO HAVE MAXIMUM STABILITY!! If you do not understand this please step away from the computer!
  15. "The SF copy protection of not request the CD every time, rather, it will only request it once a week." Well does this mean 1 day a week every time you start the game during that day? Because that would explain why it checks the cd every time I startup the game. :D
  16. Very interesting! Is there a website were I can download that PDF file? I'll try to find that formula and a paper on how HEAT rounds work. This paper also contained highspeed X-Ray stills of metal rods penetrating a sheet of metal. You can clearly see the "mushrooming" of the tip of the rod as it works its way through the metal. Here you can read a very interesting abstract on a researchpaper. http://www.stormingmedia.us/06/0644/A064443.html *edit* found something but still no formula: http://scholar.lib.vt.edu/theses/available/etd-3753128097370/unrestricted/stevens.pdf
  17. True DU is cheaper than tungsten, and it is actually more effective then tungsten. I've seen a very simple formula to calculate longrod armor penetration. If the rod contained DU, the outcome had to be multiplied by 1.15. You can find a ton of info on http://www.tank-net.org Greetz Raploc
  18. oops sorry didn't use the search function for this one. Sorry will not post again, unless it has been checked. :icon_redf
  19. This is the actual radio conversation of a US naval ship with Canadian authorities off the coast of Newfoundland in October 1995. CANADIANS: Please divert your course 15 degrees to the south to avoid a collision. AMERICANS: Recommend you divert your course 15 degrees to the north to avoid a collision. CANADIANS: Negative. You wil have to divert your course 15 degrees to the south to avoid a collision. AMERICANS: This is the captain of a US Navy ship. I say again divert YOUR course! CANADIANS: No I say again, divert YOUR course. AMERICANS: This is the Aircraft Carrier US LINCOLN, the second largest ship in the United States Atlantic Fleet. We are accompanied by three destroyers, three Cruisers and numerous support vessels. I DEMAND that you change your course 15 degrees north. That's one-five degrees north, or countermeasures will be taken to ensure the safety of this ship. CANADIANS: This is a lighthouse. Your call.
  20. Bring it on ! :horseback We (The Dutch) will bitchslap those Flanker and Migs right out of the sky with our F-16A's.
  21. Shoot! You beat me to it :-) . but it's the right answer.
  22. The driver is only for the TIR3 family. For me it solved a centering problem, before it used to float around the centerpoint a bit after I pressed the center button.
  23. Strannik at least you got to shoot at something, I was just a passenger then, and I got the impression they wanted to rattle out my teeth.
  24. I have had the opportunity to catch a ride on a Leopard 1 tank about 14 years ago when I was in the army. Was it fun? hell yeah!! Could someone hit a fast moving plane with a machinegun while doing 40-50 kph on rough terrain looking for a place to hide from antitank missiles? Hell no! But this is getting of topic.
  25. Why not? Better to waste a missile than destroying the laser. But I would understand if there was a kind of "wartime" overload setting. The laser would need extra maintenance the minute you would land of course. Strannik a tank driving at 50 Kph is not a stable AA gunplatform. And if the Vikhr is just as good in rl as in the game, I would smoke those tanks at about 5 km and there is no machinegun that would be able to hit me at that distance.
