  1. Thanks Neph...if i do Overclock in the future I'd be glad for the help, the Mid-Tower will be ok for me for now, space is a problem!, my probable course of action will be to maintain the spec's as they are, as long as i can run EF2000, TAW 2.0, and BMS 4.32 smoothly then I'm happy. .....the 8 GB memory should last me a longtime, but yes i see your point about the slots and 2 sticks of 4 GB though,... now this monitor thing........i don't want TAW or EF2000 to be stretched and odd looking but finding a 1920x1200 with a good contrast ratio and a below 5ms response rate for a reasonable price is difficult!....i can get an excellent 1920x1080 for a good price!, but thats not good for EF2000 and TAW. .....also is LED better than LCD?
  2. Yeah sometimes it keeps locking wrong building up, on ACE level the MFD modes are hard enough to learn, i spend alot of time flying in a straight line in Autopilot fiddling with the MFD's.

  4. Well i don't want the case to be huge, but if i upgrade later i could always change case then i guess, also I'm sure the GTX 570 has a fan of its own too?......also i won't be running this PC 24/7, so it will have time off. ....BMS 4.32!!, that the GOAL for me!!, i can't see me wanting anything better than BMS 4.32 Maxed out , thanks for the input.
  5. I also forgot to ask for Maximum Fans for the case!, I've sent email to make changes......is the Mid-Case ok with Max Fans?.

  7. Thats OK Eagle, its a great method whoever thought of it!. .......just thought I'd refresh everyones memory about it.
  8. Select a custom combat mission, then select a Mobile Ground Target such as a Challenger Tank as the enemy, select custom weapons for your F22 and equip with GBU's and then begin mission. 1. Lock ground target with your cannon. 2. Change Attack MFD to LANTERN mode, ground target should be locked to lantern. 3. Select LANTERN TRACK. 4. Change LANTERN from SLAVED to FREE. 5. Select LGB's (ground target should now still be tracked by LANTERN as you select LGB's) 6. Zoom in by selecting TOGGLE ZOOM. Mobile target is now Locked to GBU's, select F1 to return to Virtual Cockpit, the Mobile Ground Target should now have a triangle with a circle around it indicating Mobile Ground Target is locked to weapon (GBU's), once you get the 'SHOOT' cue release weapon, you may need to do small corrections to the cross hair to make sure cross hair is fully over Mobile Ground Target.........'BOOM' Target is destroyed. Thanks to Eagle Flight.
  9. This Cyberpowersystems place looks good, you can customize your own pc and its got good reviews: http://www.cyberpowersystem.co.uk/
  10. Wombat its hard to believe your age, i hope I'm like you at your age, your an icon to live up too!!
  11. Keilder forest not far from here is a great place for bikers, un-congested open roads, and strangely enough most of the bikers that YES break the speed limit are off-duty policemen!!.......now thats not right is it?? ....but i'm only saying what others have told me! .

    Hotas

    Hey lipy how you doing sunshine?, i went to Belgium once on the ferry for a day trip, nice place!....got alot of walnut trees!, hey....join the EU fly-ins if you can!. ....here
  14. In Falcon 4 Superpak 4.2 you lock target using radar, then select TGP for the view, zoom in, correct if necessary, then do final lock, but once final lock is done thats it!....when you release you won't miss, but in TAW you need to constantly manually correct cross hair.
  15. Home Fries your outstanding dedication to this is worth a medal, Wombat too and Eagle!....my interest in the old DiD flight sims has resurfaced because of you guys!.....welldone you all!! (p.s. on the wine, but i mean it! )
  16. Oh that Laptop looks real good, just what i wanted, portable and powerful, tempted, tempted, tempted........ Audio Features Yes with analogue output Battery Life in Hours Up to 8 hours Bluetooth Yes Brand Asus Built-in Webcam Yes Cache Memory in Mb 6MB Camera Yes Card Reader Type 3 in 1 Colour Black Dial Up Modem No External Sata Interface No Features of Product The world of portable gaming has a new reigning king. The G74SX is a performance notebook that imposes its will with the combined power of a second generation Intel® Core™ i7 CPU and NVIDIA® GTX 560M GPU with 3GB of GDDR5 VRAM. A score of P2008 in 3DMark11 and P9180 in 3DMark Vantage takes over the reins as the fastest notebook in the land. Support for DirectX®11 ensures that you’ll not only have the fastest rig in town, but also the ability to play games as they were meant to be seen for a long time. Like its predecessor, the G74SX design was inspired by sharp polygonal shapes, but this time inspiration came from the US Navy’s Sea Shadow stealth ship and modern day aircraft carriers. Like the stealth ship, opponents will never know what hit ‘em, and like an aircraft carrier, the G74 has the firepower to shock and awe the competition. The G74SX is great for gaming, but its hardware is serious business. It offers the best 3D ecosystem for PCs, offering 3D content creation and editing. It’s powered with NVIDIA® 3D Vision™, so games, photos and movies are all able to be enjoyed like never before. There’s also the ability to output the G74SX to a 3D TV, so you can enjoy 3D entertainment from the living room. Pair that up with THX + EAX 5.0 3D gaming audio technology, and together they make the G74 not only a great gaming notebook, but also a hub for multimedia entertainment. Gaming is something to be enjoyed, so why not be more comfortable for extended gaming sessions? Fatigue will be a thing of the past, thanks to the G74’s 5° incline keyboard designed to provide a better ergonomic angle, as well as super comfortable rubber-like palm rests that’s easy on the palm and wrist. There’s also more space between the keyboard and number pad, so it more resembles a desktop keyboard Finger Print Reader No Firewire No Graphics Chipset NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 560 + 3G VRAM Graphics Type Dedicated Hard Drive Size 1.5TB Hard Drive Type 2.5" SATA 5400rpm with 8MB Cache Interface USB 2.0 Letter Recognition No Megapixels 1920x1080 Memory Size 8GB Memory Slots Total 4 Memory Speed in Mhz PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) Memory Type DDR3 Number of USB Ports 3 Operating System Microsoft Windows® 7 Home Premium 64 bit Optical Drive Dual Layer Compatible Yes Optical Drive Hd-dvd Compatible No Optical Drive Lightscribe Compatible No Optical Drive Type Blu-ray reader/DVD dual layer rewriter Output HDMI (not HDCP compliant) Power Adaptor Included Yes Pressure Sensitive No Processor Intel® Pentium® Processor Model Number Core™ i7-2670QM Processor Speed in GHz 1.73 Product Depth 42.0 cm Product Height 6.2 cm Product Weight Units kg Product Width 32.5 cm Screen Size In Inches 17.3 Screen Type LED Software Loaded WinDVD8 BD Adobe Acrobat Reader 9.0 NERO 8 Essentials Power2Go Trend Micro Internet Security 2009/2010 ASUS SmartLogon Asus Power4Gear Hybrid Asus Live Update Asus NB Probe + ASUS Life Frame 3 ASUS Wireless Console Virtual Camera ASUS Splendid ASUS Hotkey ASUS Express Gate Asus Screen Saver Fancy Start eManual AI Recovery TV Tuner No Weight 4.28 Wired Networking Port Gigabit ethernet Wireless Built in 802.11b

  18. Sounds like a good days practice right there!......Oh damn i better remember to buy more coffee
  19. Sorry i'm not talking about the training mission, i mean for simpicity during a real mission where you don't pause......if you just want to find the one with the 'T' on it pretty quick.
  20. Think we should give it a try Wombat, but for us it be hard enough hitting the first one!
  21. Sweeper i haven't tried this yet but can you release one then the other a few seconds later and then quickly switch to next building with LANTERN after first building destroyed so second GBU hits second building a few seconds later?
  22. For simplicity you could just select static targets with 'F11', then during fly-past use 'Z' to cycle to correct target then 'S' to lock it up......then turn around, wait for 'SHOOT' cue then fire!...when target is destroyed clear with 'U'.....repeat for next target!......just a simple way of doing it?, if you cycle past target just keep pressing 'Z' then 'S' till you come back to it.
  23. I kind of guessed that but thanks again Wombat.
  24. Thanks Wombat for clearing that up. ....I needed to display my sound card settings so people could see them, so we used this thread, anyway turns out its a CPU issue..HERE
