miles teg 1 Posted August 31, 2002 Has anyone successfully downloaded VIT's Spitfire addon or any of his other newer addons like that ship he made (the one that looks like a destroyer)? There is news item about them at: http://ofp.gamezone.cz/index.php?newlang=eng When his page was working (http://www.vit.run.to/ ), I managed to download the files following his instructions but I just get errors trying to extract the pbo from the .ace file. I wish that guy would just use a .ZIP format like everyone else or just submit his addons to one of the major OFP sites like ofp.gamezone.cz so they can host the addons. But if anyone has these addons, if you can put them up on the web somewhere in ZIP format that would be great. Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Intruder 0 Posted August 31, 2002 I use Powerarchiver Supports ace, zip, rar, jar, arj, and loads others I've never heard of, and I'm using an old version As for the spitfire, reminds me of the unfinished P-51 Mustang that was released Also was the MkII fitted with 0.5 cal's or 0.303 MG?

miles teg 1 Posted August 31, 2002 Thanks for the links guys! Those worked and I got one of my ace files decompacted. However I got cut off when I was downloading this file: vit_israel_osa2.ace That's the ship I was talking about. Does anyone have this ship? And if so could you be so kind as to email it to me at: chrisgie@txdirect.net Thanks! Much appreciated! Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TimNiceButDim 0 Posted August 31, 2002 that german ofp site is overloaded I think, images not loading, downloads not starting so .... Vit's Spitfire: http://www.iol.ie/~zerosum/vit_Spitfire_MkII.zip (501609bytes) Have to say I don't like it one bit, lags my puter to hell I don't understand how I can play with the tornado, who's pbo is ~20 meg, so smoothly and not this (~3)? It doesn't look completed yet though, so hopefully the next version will be smoother. Tim! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
