Dark Side beckons

Relax Collin

I have not installed FSX..doubt that I will because my system will most likely not run it at any accepatable level of detail. I am quite content to stick with CFS2 and FS2004....both of which my system can run full force with the highest level of detail.

The Dark Side becons...but I ain't answering.

Now, when Jeff finds the disks to LOMAC (Lock On: Modern Air Combat) and brings them to me, you can bet that that puppy is getting installed and used!

Mainly, I am looking forward to using the Thrustmaster HOTAS Cougar set that Jeff gave me. Just need to get a set of rudder pedals, then I will be in business. Not sure what Jeff paid for the set, but the current price is still over $200. And he gave it to me.

Now, if I could just convince him to let me drive his Mustang once he gets it done! He's dropping a turbo charged 351 CID V-8 into what started out as a 6 cyclinder model (the motor is being built by one of the big racing engine shops out West). Full on racing suspension on all four corners, over sized brake rotors with 8 piston calipers on the front, 6 piston calipers on the rear, a custom made body kit for ultimate aerodynamics and downforce, custom geared "clutchless" 5-speed tranny, carbon fiber components inside and out. Don't know how much money he is dumping into this thing, but I know it is A LOT!

Oh, hell yes! If/when my son builds that new dee-luxe computer for me I want to try LOMAC just for the capability to pop somebody with a Sparrow or Sidewinder that actually guides to the target. If only MS had thrown us a bone and added AAM's and SAM's to CFS2 as a patch, that would've been a big enhancement to the sim.
 
Too late Dirtman....

notice how Obio was quick to change the subject? Mustangs with big engines and some sort of LOMAC thrown into it.


And didja have to use the photo showing me best side?

regardless Collin:ernae:
 
Installed FSX, checked out a few planes...performance was horrid...I copied out some of the sound packs, then uninstalled.

I danced with the Dark Side, found that it could not tango properly, and promptly dumped it on its butt.
