Old Stuff .........Still fun to fly

Royal Netherlands Navy .......PBM-5A

I had the PBM-5A for a torpedo run..........

Picks of take of and landing .............

Gave it a shine
 
Wild Weasel...........F4 Phantom by

F4E Phantom II for CFS2 Tom Sanford (Tango_Romeo)

Just had to do a F4 wild weasel........and put in my old SAM addon.........

I been heading that way.........and I saw a post over at FS2004

I did a quick cheap repaint and messed with the after burner colors.......just went with clear exhaust.

Loaded up the Snake and Nape and ..........screen shots........whoo hoo

I have "Death from Above's" Generic Sam.......but haven't set up a counter offensive to my wild weezy

Never get tired of blowing up that Fan Song............and then a launcher on the way off target

Yet......the jet age is just a little to fast for CFS2.........Wingman just can't hit target and crashes into the country side on turns.........
 
Surface to Air Missles............SAM's

It maybe a day late and a dollar short.............

But you have to give credit for this effort on the SAM's

If you set the mission up correctly..........the incoming SAM's can un nerve you real quick..........

I had a hard time keeping an eye on SAM's, directing my wingman, and setting up myself for a bomb run..........

Then pulling off target my wingman was rejoining an caught a SAM on the way out........

But they aren't perfect.....and you can defeat them by just turning and burning ...........But your AI get caught.....
 
More Screen .........Joe versus the SAMcano

I was enjoying dodging SAM's.............well actually

I was trying to run into them............

Just some shots I finally got the volley or SAM's to go off as we came in on the Wild Weasel......

For most of you SOH'ers.........this is old stuff..........but this is the old stuff thread

I had fun with it.......so maybe someone else hasn't seen the effect either?

ok.......enough missles buzzing by F4's
 
A collection of work

Thanks................

what you see is the collective work of many CFS2 flyers........

I have put together the ideas of many and am trying to show that in these screens.......

I think it is coming thru...........Old Stuff is great when combined

and these new computers and video cards really are the wonders that paint the pictures.........

I just sit in the cockpit and record the action,the scenery, and virtual work.

I should say.........I now where, how, and where to sit.......and that's the fun
 
I am on a SE Asia roll.................

I had to put in the old Caribou........because one of George Knowles air bases said it was only accessible by a DHC-4...

I am just curious Rockster, but will all of George Knowles FS8 'Nam bases work in CFS2? Minus the FS9 mesh I mean.

Have always wondered about that just never got around to experimenting and trying it out.
 
FS2002 AFB

All the FS2002 George Knowles bases I have put in work great........

The FS2004 may not work...........for I have avoided those..........and have had not much luck with FS2004 scenery.

The FS2002 AFB's have flatten areas ........so they work with any mesh ....including the original CFS2

There is one irritating problem I have encountered........missing objects error ..........Da Nang.................but just click on thru that and there you are.

They are graphic intensive............I am wondering if the more bases you install......the more your machine bogs down........

I am not a GSL expert.......

If you have a complex aircraft........only one will be let in..........I crash out on alot of multiple formation newer aircraft.......especially the FS9 conversions.

I took out the FS2004 mesh.........and they flatten down to the CFS2 mesh fine....I think.........well it did at Khe Sanh.

But...........that mesh really makes them pop

They are all API .......so you can fly right thru the buildings and nothing happens..................

He spent alot of time on Da Nang, Khe Sanh, Plei Ku, Quang Tri...........which is where I am flying out of currently.

Does anyone know George Knowles screen name.............is he in here somewhere?
 
Thanks Rockster, I sort of figured they would work alright but I only used them in FS9 many, many moons ago and they did ok. I wonder how well they would stand up on top of Rhumba's CFS2 mesh, some landclass etc...only one way to find out huh?

As far as missing objects errors I wonder if similar substitutes can be put in after renaming? Should work...

I have only tried a few FS8 aircraft like the F-4 and a few others and they did fine for the most part if memory serves me. They weren't as complete as newer aircraft like missing panels or poor skins. FS7 aircraft were even worse but I tried them too but that was so long ago. Maybe next week sometime I will add a new CFS2 'Nam setup...always wanted to so...

Graphic intensive sounds alright to me, finally have a pc to run it all, i7, 6GB ram, ATI 4850 = up to 200 fps at times.

Thanks again for the input.

:USA-flag:
 
Ok ....maybe one more F4 and missles buzzing about

I had to post this ...............a great ........what do I do now moment

My wingman and I got absoultely shreaded..............

It happened before I could even respond
 
And.......finally......just dang cool

I got this SAM Mission down now so that I get creamed on the way in and out...........

Electronic AGM will have to be used .............I can't get in with conventional bombs........

Here my wingman.........seems to be a SAM magnet.....I got hit too.......but I have set on invincible so I can get the shot
 
Straggling Wingman...............

Here is how cool this is................

I was off target.........just about to go feet wet.........

I was trying to get my wingman to join up...............

I look on my threat indicator........and sure enough a SAM was tracking the wingman..........

The angle off was bad enough that the SAM didn't bring my wingman down and he/she made it back to base...............

Way off you can see wingy taking a frag blast........

In the other shot................

A SAM went right between wingy and me ..........I was sure it was going to go off............but it didn't detonate..............

However.......... I was so pre occupied with that SAM that I missed the target.....

Ok........enough SAM shots...........let me show you my summer vacation shots of me and the family up in the Poconos
