Thanks guys for a very successful test! We found a couple of errors to be corrected. But nothing major. We're on track for Wednesday, the 29th! See you all next week!

That's kind of my opinion.

Downloading the final version now.

Hi All, We've had a major problem with the FIF mission file, and as a result, we'll need to delay the tournament by one week. We'll now be starting FIF XX on Wednesday, October 29th at 8:45PM EDT. Tomorrow (Wednesdsay, October 22nd) will instead be a test for a new map! Please mark your calendars with the change. And check back to the FIF forums within the next day. A newly constructed map and objective list will be posted soon! For those interested, here's what happened: The Digital Nature Engine on our old map was getting bogged down, and caused the mission clock to slow down, stop, or even run backwards. This meant that a 2 hour mission would run for 3 to 5 hours before flipping. A lot of this issue had to do with the number of entities on the map, as well as the general density of the Channel Map. We were using a large territory for FIF, so it may have just been more than the game could handle. Butzzell and Stubby have now reduced the play area on the map, and took out some objects. The new map runs perfectly. So, this Wednesday is a test. And next Wednesday, the 29th, will be the start of the event. Hope to see you all online! -Klaiber

Boo. Oh well, maybe next time.

I was thinking about picking up the Huey or the Mi-8. But I may hold off. For Flaming Cliffs 3, do I still need to own previous versions of the game in order to use it?

The D-9 is awesome.

S! All, Tomorrow night is the FIF XX dry run and map test. Teams will be meeting on their TeamSpeak servers around 8:45PM EDT. Hope to see you online.

All set.

You'll have to post a pic of your character. Curious to see how you decked him out.

Just realized, I posted the wrong link above. Here is Realistic Needs and Diseases: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/26228/?

Welcome to the airfield of Jagdgeschwader 1! JG1 is a historically minded online cyber-squadron with a long and distinguished history. Established in March 1992, we are the second oldest cyber-squadron currently active on the internet. JG1 is North American based, with a strong Central European contingent. Currently JG1 is focused on the following flight simulation games: Rise of Flight and Flying Circus (as Jagdgeschwader Nr. I "Richthofen", which includes Jasta 11, Jasta 10, Jasta 6 and Jasta 4) IL-2: Cliffs of Dover and IL-2: Great Battles (as Jadgeschwader 1 "Oesau", which includes I./JG 1, II./JG 1 and III./JG 1) DCS World (as Jagdfliegergeschwader 1 "Fritz Schmenkel") If you are interested in joining JG1, please login to our forums, and start a new thread within the JG1 Recruitment section. Your new thread should have the following information: What is your Timezone? Do you have a joystick or HOTAS? Do you have TeamSpeak installed, as well as a working microphone? Do you have TrackIR, or a FreeTrack system for view control? What sims are you currently flying? How did you hear about JG1? Is there anything else that you'd like us to know? Thanks in advance for the interest! Looking forward to talking with you soon. ~Salut!~ -Klaiber

Sure, not a problem. I'll add one tonight.

That sounds really intense!

If you haven't, you should check out Realistic Needs and Diseases: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/26228/? It gives your character needs, like thirst, sleep and hunger. For me, I finally got Frostfall working on my install of Skyrim. But I haven't made a ton of use out of it, as I'm a vampire. If I make a new character, I'm definitely going for full immersion.

Hi Geezer, you should be all set.

Those are awesome, Lee! Really makes me wish I was there.

Yeah, I wish there was a translation for the Polish and Russian. Overall, I thought it was good. Though, I did notice that they added in extra animation to make things more "epic". I'm not sure if that was a good move, as it's not accurate. But, considering I've never seen another documentary about combat simming, I thought that this was a very minor issue.

Saw this over on the IL-2:BOS boards. I remember seeing this back in 2012. I think it was released on HBO Europe. http://youtu.be/rKLV4rpxfuE Here is the IMDB listing: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2508838/

S! All, Tonight is our FIF XX orientation. Hope to see you all online. We'll be meeting on the No.42 Squadron server around 9PM EDT.

Hi Warmonger, You're all set.

Hi Bayonet, You're all set!

Great!

All set. Welcome!

Hi Nephris, I agree. I've checked out BOS a few times now, and I'm just not sure they're heading in the right direction. I really don't like the unlock system. And I find the FM to be weird. When I fly the Bf 109, it feels like I'm flying a RoF Fokker D.VII really really fast. I'm also a bit spoiled when it comes to clickable cockpits. The fact that BOS doesn't have this feature really hurts it, in my opinion. It's 2014, so clickable cockpits on a new sim should really be standard. So far, even with it's problems, Team Fusion's modded version of Cliffs of Dover seems to be the way to go. And perhaps DCS WWII: Europe 1944 in the next few years.
