Hi kelly,

I only put that you could vote for 1 as this gives a total number of users. You can then post and say what other versions you fly.- if you wish.

I ought to add one to the stock vote as my son loves flying the campaign (the little s*ds way better than I am!)
Click to expand...

Be of good cheer, Pat. I have discovered at my age that it's fun learning from my kids. That's especially true in computing; my son has his master's in this stuff!
 
I haven't had CFS3 installed for nearly three months now due to a PC crash, . . . that will change soon. I clicked ETO because it has the most to offer in terms of aircraft, scenery, missions, etc. I had all the different versions installed and enjoyed them greatly. I really love the KTO but I'm afraid it is drifting into history, there just isn't enough interest to sustain it.
 
I voted ETO because of the fantastic amount of quality work that has gone into it. But I have to say that BoB comes a close second, then my modded install that has virtually everything in it and finally my allied bomber install with as many different lancs and mossies as I could lay hands on. Don't fly many German planes but deffinately no yank ones
 
I fly CFS3 heavily modified with some stand alone things and some things I borrowed from the other installs. My install has the best off all the add ons but I have had to trim it down recently because the file size makes the game start up times incredibly long.
 
I fly them all, and have multiple-multiple installs (i.e. one for each ETO Era). They're all highly modified as well.

p.s. you left out OFF...
 
I may re-install the whole gamut after I set up another machine. At a certain point, I could no longer run ETo because I just could not get it smooth so it was very frustrating and as a lot of you know I was really into it for quite awhile. As the FX progressed, my FR's dropped. So these days I get vicarious thrills by readiung what the rest of you guys have been doing. Meanwhile, I picked up what's in the photo to keep me busy......

Thanks Pat

I voted ETO. But I try to fly all the add-ons.

My CFS3 was a gift from my Son March 2008. To date with the current add-ons (ETO,PTO,BoB,MAW,and DPC Korea). I have available 880 new

additional Aircraft and 1720 Missions from the original 28 aircraft and 24 Missions in CFS3.

At this time I want to Thank everyone associated with CFS3. You are making my Senior years enjoyable!

Hi Pat :wavey:

PTO was my vote. had a thing for Baa Baa Black Sheep the late 70's tv show. :icon_lol:

ETO has so much you can do i fly it a lot also.
 
Thanks for opportunity to weigh-in, Pat. I choose ETO, but pretty much equally split my "flying" time between ETO and PTO at this time. I was heavily into OFF the past couple of years (P3-BH&H), and look forward to OBD's release of P4. Will start on MAW and Korea Skies this winter. For the number of 'active' members on our forum, I would have expected more responses.:kilroy:

Good poll topic....

Best Regards,

Barnstorm
 
I would like to add that my CFS3 is a very advanced set up, I never fly the stock CFS3 always my advanced set up..
Which I do fly often..Daily to be honest..
CFS 3 has been allowed to fall by the wayside for many due to the great expansions we now have..
But if one takes the time you can make CFS3 equal to the expansions for scenery and items that are available to all..
may have to build some more missions for CFS3 it seems..
 
Too silly for ETO / PTO

I fly stock CFS 3 with a lot of add ons,as BOB, D-Day or Mosquito Combat.
I also managed to get MAW working and I really enjoy it as well as Korea.
But I´m too stupid for ETO / PTO,no way to make them work,there´s always a detail I forgot or misunderstood.
So I´m a bit disheartened....
Perhaps someday I´ll be able to install it,let´s wait and see..:icon29:
 
....nonsense! -I am by far the crazier as I run down every last imperfection and impropriety for years at a time 'till it all crashes__________ and then I take a breath, breathe a 2 or 3 hard felt curses, and go do it all again! BTW would anyone care for a nut?:icon29:
 
I never had any problem while installint PTO and ETO. ETO is a bit longer that PTO but that's all.

All you have to do is do exactly as explained in the readme. If something goes wrong, just post your question here at SoH.

If you have MAW running, there is no reason why you shouldn't be able to to so with ETO and PTO.
 
Hello Clive, I fly (a little) ETO but my main hobby is : try to make texture (just for fun) of skins (always my problem with Gmax in English. if somebody knows a French version I take), French airfields.
In the near future I am going to try to show the result of airfields.
