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!

He said so because the version you are talking about is only a reskin and a edited config file. They look kinda a similar, perhaps different enough to warrant a remodel, but I doubt we'll see anyone tackling that in the near future.

I have to say I am not one who will forgive and forget this as easily as some of the other members on this forum. Being the socialist pinko that I am, I believe quite strongly in the open source ethic. One of the corner stones of this, in my opinion, is that people get credit for the work that they do. I think it is quite a strong factor in encouraging people to contribute to such a community. Taking someone else’s work and not crediting them for what they have done is NOT something you overlook. Now, these models are probably not distributed under such a licence, if any at all, but someone has still taken the time to build them and make them publicly available. My feelings stay the same. That fact should not have been overlooked. Landwarrior, people seem to be giving you the benefit of the doubt here, you are lucky. The Internet is full of fakers, and it does not take very much for people to form an opinion or lose trust in an individual, whether or not he is genuine. I would recommend you be more careful in future. You have made apologies of sorts, so I guess we should not dwell on this any longer, I was weak! Had to get my say in. The rest of you are strong though, right ;) Tim

I hope nobody draws parallels between this behaviour and the incident regarding fas.org. ti hi ;) Seriously though, some things are excusable, this is definitely not. I reeks of teenie boppers trying to impress, and I thought it was a mature forum grrrr. Tim (my first post, so shoot me :p) eidt: apparently i have three posts, put it down to exam stress will you!

duh, i think i am repeating someone ^^^ oops! Really should read posts properly I've got the same rocOicw problem Is it just a missing pbo? Maybe a solution could be posted here. Great fun otherwise!!!! Tim

You are coding in C!!! I hope to god I never have to learn any of that in my life time. For a student rasied on JAVA, C++ is beastly enough!! I presume something like this this will work in C. Taken from www.cplusplus.com: /* rand example */ #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <time.h> int main () { /* initialize random generator */ srand ( time(NULL) ); /* generate some random numbers */ printf ("A number between 0 and RAND_MAX (%d): %d\n", RAND_MAX, rand()); printf ("A number between 0 and 99: %d\n", rand()%100); printf ("A number between 20 and 29: %d\n", rand()%10+20); return 0; } So basically you use the mod (%) operator (returns an int). rand()%3 should give you something between 0 - 2 inclusive. srand ( time(NULL) ); seeds the number generator with the current system time and methinks it's general good practice. Dunno how this works in C though. Tim!
