In a word: Awesome. This basically sums up my observations of a lot of places I lurk. And why I go out of my way to never post there.

Thanks FourSpeed! I appreciate it.

I just found that on the Rise of Flight boards. Thanks for the heads up! Is that a permanent change?

Hi Mylesy, You're all set for the Blue Team. When you login to the forums, make sure to check the Blue Team area. Blue Team uses the New Wings TS server. Looking forward to flying with you!

The Nevada map?

Hi Dutch, Sorry to hear that you were having problems. Though, I'm glad you were able to resolve it through running in compatibility mode.

That sounds good. In the meantime, we can always distribute it through PM if people need it in advance.

Hi All, Butzzell recently posted this on the ROF boards: http://riseofflight.com/forum/topic/49580-sad-day-all-us/ Please try and attend if you're able.

Cool, I'll definitely watch this.

S! All, The teams for FIF XXV have been finalized. This information can be found here, within the Tournament Information section. Additionally, I have posted the current registered pilots here. This document will be added to and corrected during the course of the event. Should there be any questions or concerns, just post below, or drop me a PM. Looking forward to flying with you all!

That's awful news Ice! Really sorry to hear this. I hope you're able to get everything repaired quickly.

Hi, you're all set for the Red Team.

Hi Guys, I'm going to assign you to the Blue Team. Blue is starting off as German first. I hope you don't mind. Check the Blue team area for information regarding your team. Blue Team uses the New Wings teamspeak, which you can find here: http://newwingstraining.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=87&sid=063221d74b03cdfbf2917233788c008d Welcome!

All set. Manu, you should now have access to the Blue area.

Hi Manu, My apologies if these are dumb questions. Are you using any form of TrackIR or FreeTrack? Also, are you using the Increase and Decrease Field of View (FOV) feature in the game? I believe Increase FOV is keypad - And Decrease FOV is keypad + If you already use both of these, then it could be a graphical setting. I could always tell you what I'm running ROF at, but it might be different for your set up. Either way, hope this helps!

Awesome! Thanks!

Very cool! I'll check the video out!

Thanks!

So, regarding the RAM, my friend referred me to this PC World article: http://www.pcworld.com/article/2982965/components/quad-channel-ram-vs-dual-channel-ram-the-shocking-truth-about-their-performance.html The MB I'm currently thinking of going with is dual channel.

Hi Danudet, Welcome, thanks for checking out our boards! I'll drop you an email tonight. Talk more soon!

Thanks for your thoughts Luft! I'm a sucker for an Optical Drive. I still use discs. Good question about the RAM. I'll check up on that. I've been considering getting a bigger OS SSD. Let me think about that. Regarding a case, I was thinking about getting the MasterCase Maker 5 Mid-Tower Case: https://www.amazon.com/MasterCase-Mid-Tower-FreeForm-Upgraded-Supression/dp/B01ER4898Y/ref=sr_1_2?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1475784787&sr=1-2&keywords=Master+Case

Hi Guys, With the help of a friend, I've started spec'ing out a new computer. I thought I'd post what we've figure out so far, and see what you all thought. Let me know if I've missed anything, keeping in mind that I'd also be picking up Win10, a new case, and eventually a 27 inch monitor. Thanks in advance for your thoughts! . . .

Some updates! Everyone is asked to meet first on the New Wings TeamSpeak at 2PM EDT / 6PM UTC. JG1_Butzzell (with the help of squadron commanders) will briefly organize everyone, and preliminarily divide up teams. If the teams are good, these are the ones that we'll go with for the tournament. The mission will then launch around 2:30PM EDT / 6:30PM UTC. Immediately after the test / orientation mission, they'll be a very brief FIF Admin meeting to discuss last minute changes. Should anyone have any questions, just post below.
