Yes for both. C7/C8 are the Diemacos, "Canadian Colts".
-
Good idea. Be there in about 20 mins if everything goes fine.
-
Modern B-52H's don't have the tail turret anyways, removed to save weight and due to lack of effectiveness in modern world.
-
Yes, there's a list of weapons on the first page, but no readme with the classnames, which I'd assume he wants. Too many, too long to paste them here though.
-
Aaah, that's too bad. But I guess there's just nothing to do. Great that the SCARs are left in good hands, though. Will sure miss you (just until I get drunk ), thanks for the contribution. Take care, Bye.

Brass is what you're looking for, an alloy of zinc and copper (thanks Wiki). Yes, errrr, it does look more like corroded copper atm. And not even that. The idea is great though, very cool. I'm not sure, but I think they usually make/made the cartridges from brass, not the bullet though.

2nd that. Beautiful launch, very nice. Also happy 4th of July for all US members.
-
15 minutes in the clock, and Discovery has a "Go". Looks like they'll get her moving.
-
F1 Sahrani Grand Prix (Military Edition), anyone? Nice, very nice... glad to see the island a bit, it really is massive I guess. Nice scenery.

Well, the chopper is in the MD500 pack. They're quite nice, but I'd prefer the GIGN Filming pack. It has more choises for the camera type, and the camera is a TV-camera, not a movie camera. The chopper is very nice, although the camera movement is very limited, which really isn't a good thing. I still haven't found a replacement for the speaking platform. If folks don't want to use FDF (which I doubt a bit), we could of course: a) try to find a replacement b) make our own one c) ask permission and extract/modify the FDF one and make it a single file d) just scrap the platform idea I've changed the gates to Mapfact ones (Military: Barrier (signs)), they seem to work well. Also added some little Mapfact stuff there to give a bit of mood. Still not sure about the car convoy setup though. J_W, I'll send it to you when you come back and you can see if it's any good.

Well they did actually have some problems with one of the booster pods, they couldn't get it to heat up... but it was just a minor thing, I think the planned to try to fix it on-orbit. But I think they already got it fixed. The planned launch should take place in about 3Ë hours, although weather conditions aren't ideal again. Atleast countdown is on and astronauts are just on their way to the shuttle.
-
Check end of the page 1 and page 2... yes, we know you can steal the Hind.
-
Eeeeh? Weather... According to NASA website, there's only a 30% chance of launch atm due to weather conditions, but they'll try anyways.
-
Yeah, I noticed it few weeks ago and watched the start of it, bookmark for later. But... Firefox "restarted" itself few times so... Thanks for bringing that up. It's quite scary actually. Can you trust even your own government? Even if you're serving to defend it?
-
Yep, the main thing sounds just what I've been taught of. 1st September the armed forces of Nazi Germany crossed the border and marched into Poland (I still remember the image of Wehrmacht soldiers lifting the border gate). Poles (is that the right term?) tried pretty much their best defending, but were hopelessly overcome by Blitzkried. Although the P.11 fighters managed to fight off the Me-109's fairly well, considering their design. Then the other half was invaded by Soviets, according to Stalin's and Hitler's secret deal, even though both were just preparing for the future.
-
How many threads do you need? As already said few times, 1.46 is the highest you can go without buying Resistance expansion pack or the Game Of The Year (GOTY) version of the game. Already explained that to you in your previous topic.
-
Yep, a great game (when it works for me), although it isn't very smooth for me. You can try to get the Ostfront '41-'45 from your local game store though, bought mine in a DVD case (no downloading). The gun support feature is one of the most useful aspects of it. Sorry for OT.
-
Aah, damn you Hellfish. Good luck, even if you're not here. T minus 3 hours and counting started just few mins ago, but atm the launch is a no-go due to cumulus clouds.
-
Aye, mentioned it earlier... will be watching. They're planning to launch in schedule, which is about 5h 45mins away (3.49pm Eastern US time). Something new or me: the astronauts arrived to the space center flying T-38 Talons.
-
Yeah, had that in my minf (and also mentioned it). I'll test my "loadout" with some more stuff, especially in the "no FDF" loadout. I can send it to you later.
-
I'd also add Saudi-Arabia to the list, maybe. They're apparently getting some, although I'm not sure whether they have actually made the contract yet. http://www.airforce-technology.com/projects/ef2000/

Without getting Resistance (or GOTY), you're able to get up to 1.46. The version you're running atm is shown in the main menu screen, and the patch download page should tell what the patch is meant to be installed on. And you don't patch the game up to 1.75. Resistance is 1.75, and it also is an expansion pack that you have to buy. Then just d/l the 1.75>1.96 patch (or 1.85>1.96 GOTY patch, should you decide to get GOTY) and you're ready to go.
-
I'm not sure if you know this already, or is this the correct place, but NASA is about to launch Space Shuttle Discovery tomorrow, at 3.49 pm Eastern US time (that's pretty much exactly 23 hours from this moment). Good luck, NASA. Fingers crossed.

2 quizzes I found thanks to my friend on an another forum... What Combat Weaponry Are You? What military aircraft are you? I got Steyr Aug and B-52.

Finally! Been waiting for the "interesting news" for 2 weeks now! Great news indeed, they look lovely... wow! Although I'm still a bit confused, will we get these before ArmA or after it? Atleast *if* the release is... ahem... postponed, will we still get them once they're finished (a tad stpid question but...)?
