Hi Hiede,
I'm enjoying it so far too, getting shot down way too many times though.
Cheers

I did hear some of the missions are tough.
Next will be the Solomons 43 part,but not for awhile though.
Also a VMF-124 campaign is being done.The first Corsair squadron at Guadacanal.

Hiede,
Oh, excuse me. I didn't realize that I had to meet specific response criteria. I've been extremely busy trying to track down a missing brother who has been gone since April 3rd, 2023, and caring for a mother having to recover from a knee replacement surgery she had on April 7th, and who suffered a mental break during recovery due to the added stress of not knowing where her other son is, all while holding down my job and taking care of my own family. Not to mention preparing for two more surgeries over the summer, one on my right leg and and another to correct a congenital heart defect.
This, along with two hospitalizations for my legs last fall, taking care of my family, and handling a short-staffed situation at my school is why my attendance has been spotty for the last several months.
I will try to meet your expectations in the future, but maybe consider what's going on in other people's real lives.

Well Rami there were 8 that has already responded and I picked 5 of them to try the missions.This done even before you responded you wanted a crack or two at it.Did you expect to get them just because you wanted them?It doesn't work that way.You weren't on the list of 5 because they responded before you.You have to wait like everyone else until it is released.
About real life.
Did you forget who took care of Al for all those years until he passed away.How about when his wife passed away in his arms and she was only 27 and they had an 18 month old girl.He was devastated when his next wife and his daughter were killed in a car accident.Who helped him through it?
I was there when he had his stroke,had back surgery and the times he was recovering from the injuries caused by him helping to find survivors from the 9/11 twin towers plane crashes.That also meant he had to pull dead bodies out of the rubble,I also lost my husband because of that.They were never the same after that.
I lost my husband when I was 25 and pregnant and had our daughter a month after I was 26.A single mom but thankfully Al and his wife were there to help.I also have a drug addicted brother that constantly disappears and has been in rehab countless times with no effect.My father was an alcoholic but is trying to straighten his life out.
So you remember me disappearing for 2 years?Part of the reason was my daughter was pushed down the stairs at school.She was in a coma,broke her leg,arm and cracked 3 ribs.She missed so much school she had to repeat that school year.
The only things I posted about was my husband passing because he did a lot for CFS2 in the beginning.I also posted about Al when he was ill so people knew he wasn't going to be around for awhile and he would not say anything in the forums.When he passed away I thought everyone should know because he had friends and people he respected here.
So not only you have real live problems,everyone does.It's all part of life.Al was going to die,he knew it and never cried the blues as you have.He still lived his life to the fullest and was always there to help others.
Also remember a lot of people in here are older than you and not your teenage students,you seem to forget that at times.
Knowing you,you'll probably delete this post because you don't like when people stand up to you.I've done it 20 for 20 years with others in SOH.
Don't worry Rami I'll be spending some quality time with my family and going away for awhile on vacation as I mentioned earlier,which means you won't have to put up with me.Doesn't that make you so happy?

Hiede,
A simple note of understanding would have gone a long way here. Yes, I understand your struggles. But no, I think I'll leave this up for a while. I do hope you have fair winds and calm seas on your journey.

Rami,
You are the one that got offended when there was no intent meant that way.As stated before you even came into the thread,the 5 had already had it sent to them.There was no criteria or anything like that,I just picked people I knew liked Al's work.
You want understanding don't get aggressive like you did.I know about your struggles and surgery.After all I do read the posts in here.

I'm betting all the money in my pocket that neither member meant any offence in their original posts, having gotten to know you both, this thread seemed to go astray from misunderstanding. I hope amends can be made, as I am always the peace-maker. I do agree that what makes SOH such a great site is that while everyone has lives that should and must take priority over CFS2 and SOH, we also all have compassion for what others are going through.
Hiede and Rami, I know I speak for all here at SOH when I say we appreciate what both of you do for our little community, as well as the time you sacrifice even when life gets in the way.
Rami, so glad to have you back, you've been missed the past few months, and I'm anxiously awaiting your input on all the great things that have been happening with CFS2 recently. Hiede and her son have been keeping us busy with some great new additions and updates, it's been a lot of fun.

Aussie,
You know you're supposed to release the drop tank when you go into combat don't you?
Hiede
Hi Hiede,
Yes, I am aware but what I do could hardly be classified as combat.
I normally would try to drop it on something.
So far everything has been going well with the missions, they are very well designed. The issue I did notice, wasn't anything to do with the missions but the scenery itself. When I finish the mission and attempt a landing and warp to short final the game would CTD. I overcame that issue by using the 4GB 32-bit program patch. I'm assuming UT uses it because my system is only new and is powerful enough to handle most anything.
Cheers

Aussie,
Yes, using the 4GB patch on the cfs2 exe is SOP for me, it's really the only way to get complex missions/scenery etc. to work acceptably.
The game's original Windows XP(?) RAM limit causes limitations in all sorts of ways...
Here's the link for those that need it

4gb patch once only in each theater install? I thought it might be someting for the OS, period.

You run the 4GB patch to modify the cfs2.exe. Once you have a modified cfs2.exe, just copy it into each of your installs.If you have a base install you use as "mother" when creating a new install, modify the cfs2.exe in this install & you'll never forget to do it in the future.The patch just allows the cfs2.exe to see (and therefore use) more than the original RAM limit set by the (old) OS it was created to run on.Access to more RAM means more objects/mission details etc.

Thank you, UT! I will give this a try.
