New to CFS3...

[EMatheson]

what are the best enhancements (or, more properly replacements) available for the
1) default scenery
2) default aircraft
3) environment textures

and where can I find missons and aircraft for the:
BOB
PTO
CBI
North Africa
Mediterranean
Australia
?

Finally, what bug fixes, patches, and tweaks are there to apply to get the game working in top form?

Kind of a long list, I know, but surely you must agree that plain-vanilla-default CFS3 could use some improvement, to put it politely...

Welcome!

There are so many improvements to the vanilla cfs3 it's impossible to name them all, definitely browse around SOH and you'll find hundreds of add-ons that will improve the game, aircraft, skins, scenery, weapons, effects, ect, ect...

Here are a few websites to get you started, I'm sure other members will add more:
www.regshanger.com
www.netwings.org
www.medairwar.com
www.avhistory.org
www.mudpond.us
www.koreanskies.com
www.overflandersfields.com

Hello and welcome, EMatheson, here are your answers:

1) CFS3 ETO Expansion
2) CFS3 ETO Expansion
3) CFS3 ETO Expansion

That is, CFS ETO Expansion 1.0 + CFS3 ETO Expansio Cumulative Update 1.20

Available by going to this thread: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php?t=862 the link is in Post #!, and should be copied into your net browser.

Other CFS3-based standalone add-on games include:

PTO Solomons: http://www.koreanskies.com/ Look for the PTO Solomon tab.

MAW (Mediterranean Air War): Unfortunately, that site has been for about a couple of weeks now. Maybe you could get a hold of someone here to arrange for a DVD swap.

Korean Skies: http://www.koreanskies.com/ Look for the Base Ops tab.

SOH add-ons library has a lot of other very good things.

Then there's the best freeware planes available: http://avhistory.org/communityserver/default.aspx

Take it easy at first. Get used to doing things.

Good luck and have fun. If you need any help or have more questions, just come back here. There are a great bunch of guys here.:d
