Well deserved recognition indeed. :0). But please expand on the 'cough cough'!

Forgive me if this is old news but has anyone seen this:

Not all the pages work but there's still some interesting stuff in the forums, even some of the pics are in there.

Developed for Wings Over Flanders Fields and adapted for CFS3, this new mod by Ankor has brought this old sim into the 21st century. Self shadowing and relective water at last!

Hi Scott and Lewis,

I don't suppose there's any old unreleased cfs3 stuff lurking around that you'd like to let the dwindling community look after is there?

Oh and merry Christmas to you and all at A2A!

Not sure if anyone visits here anymore but just a heads up that Rob 'Capt Winters' Stevenson has released a Firepower version of his very neat bomb sight mod. It can be downloaded from the Sim Outhouse: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?linkid=17775&catid=80 http://www.sim-ou...

Hazzie posted a very clever mod that uses an external hotkey programme to trigger radio commands, this works very well and could be utilised to 'tune' into different radio channels I expect. About half way through this page: http://a2asimulations.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=12021&start=420

As a matter of fact , there is a sim with a very nice flyable Defiant available: Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator 3. (about 11 years old now, I guess. But you should still be able to find it around somewhere if you look hard enough.) The Defiant is not part of the original game, but was created as...

Additive LUFT MG + Cannon combined sound - how can these sounds be added or removed when you press the gun allocation keys, with both MG and Cannon sounding seperately when both are allocated, and then the tit is pressed to fire ( the BoB2 combined sound file is a b*lls up, as when I just add the t...

yes , unfortunately BoB2 appears written such, that the sim locks up the key, making it very difficult to use the same key sumultaneously to run another programme. I wish this could be rewitten so that BoB2 keys can be used as seperate hotkeys, notably for AHK sounds. The AHK does the same - it cov...

I'll have a pint of what he's having!

I’ve been using Paint.Net. There seems quite a big comminity and many user developed plugins. Me too, it's not got the whistles and bells of the 'big boys' but has a very simple interface and you can open, edit and save .dds files in a number of types. Thanks again for the sound files btw Ha...

fOR Pat_Pattle - my AHK files and associated sounds as requested : Thanks Hazzie, works a treat! :) Have been using it in that 'other' sim though to supplement the soundset. I can think of all sorts of other sounds to add but I think I'll run out of keys to use. From what you've said and what I've ...

Thanks for sharing Ernies experiences and so interesting that he was there to witness what went on to be portrayed as scenes in the 'Reach for the Sky' film.

Thanks for the reply Jeff, will have to go at it another way then.

Here's a link to the textures with code, if anyone would like to try them:
