That looked like General Montgomery in the wooden boat along side.

S! I think it deserves submission for an Oscar in the short subject animation catagory.

S! Yes that is the problem. Surprised no one else has it. Nobody but me using IE. Gosh I am archaic.

S! Franz, great to see you are still flying ! We plan to explore RB3D reborn when it comes out. In the mean time you should really give RoF another try. It has gotten very good. there are several online tourneys going on. We have a friendly rivalry with No.42 squad. We do some fun missions and mini tourneys as well as FiF. Bloody April starts in a month! If you have an original disc and RoF is not installed on your machine, I suggest going to the RoF site and doing the "play now" demo download. it goes much quicker than the original disc. There will probably be a good sized upload of new content. Your original game key is stil active so all you have to do is log in with your email addy and your password and you will have the full game. Just like RB3D personal paint is important. RoF hosts the paint. That is a lot of downloads to get all the paints. You do not need them to fly but eventually you will want to get them and add your own. RoF is having a sale now so if you need some new planes, they are half price. Just let me know what I can do to help you get back into the swing of things.

Internet explorer. Moxy Walked me through posting a link. It was exactly as I have done and explained. The pop up window locks up. I can put in the url but the buttons in the pop up do not work. It locks up.

Never got any "permission notice" ty

Hi, Frustration at an all time high here. I try and link an image and it locks up on the little blue input box. Will not accept url, will not cancel , will not close. Have to kill the browser to stop it. Try to put in a link, same thing. Input box wants not only the url but an e mail address, topic, message body, anchors etc. Same thing , it locks up and I have to kill the web browser to get out of it. None of the cancel buttons or x buttons work. Why can't things be simple? Why can't things work?

S! This is a completely different type of VR technology than simply a mere display unit. While it looks good for gaming, I think there will be hidden limitations for several years. The design and research applications, especially in the fields of manufacturing and chemistry are much more exciting and easier to accomplish even at this stage.

S! All I hope those in the US are having a good holiday and those in other countries are having a good day as well. Sorry it took so long to get these skins done. I know it is not a plane we fly very often but I think it is the Cinderella of German planes. We need to take it too the Ball and see how it dances. I hope these get put into the next patch. Probably just under the wire at this date. Please vote here

S! All They have posted a new item in the News section ALL planes, All mods, All everything half off. Now is the time to pick up mods and get a few extra planes. Strutter and next patch will be out by end of December. News Link

S! All Syndicate is going to run a very interesting event on Sunday December 15th. In case anyone interested Sea going fun

It does look good.

S! Lee Done. Also, I was messing around with Vickner's. I started by replacing the top wing symbol with his PD12 yellow stripe. Then I had some tome so I did a black and yellow reversal pattern wheel. Actually I did it in Blue and white to compliment the tail but it did not look right. The Black in yellow is better. Well after doing that, the tail did not look right with that dash of blue. I got carried away and did the rudder and fin in yellow. I think that came out nice, compliments the wheel and makes a much more toned down yet historical paint. Would you like your wheel stripe changed? Either black against yellow or yellow against black? And would you like the yellow rudder as well? Same old place

S! All It is not a plane we use a lot but that may change if we do a late channel scenario. I removed the face plate on the cowl for J10 planes. You can see the entire engine as it spins. I cut back the all one color wing and fuselage. J 10 planes are very stock. Black and gold tail. Gold on the nose. I did a flower petal design for Maus. It looked good for Reinhart as well. If Vick or Lee want it, just yell. I put personal symbols for Lee and Vick on the wing. If it is too much, it is easy to remove. Other option for Lee is the yellow V stripe that includes the ailerons. J11 has cowl face plate. I put personal symbols on wing. It may be too much for Labroisse. Labroisse and vonGreim have white color on rear of plane. Labroisse has black horizontal stabilizer, while vG's is white. I toned down the white a bit by adding a cloth texture. I did not paint the little vertical stabilizer to match. I left it lozenge to stand out. When you paint it red, or black or white, it disappears. Well, it blends in. When you look at it as lozenge it stands out but it looks weird. I think it needs to be painted to match whether it disappears or not, just so it does not look weird. Please list changes needed or just yell at me. yes Wurg, I know about the wheel and it has already been done. Fokker D 8 paint . .

S! Lee Uhm, well, actually, gosh. er, no. He wanted the original paint back. That way he could do stripes or no stripe depending on how he felt when he got out of bed in the morning. I know. I have created a monster. Then again, my family name is Frankenstein.

S! Wurg says he is not superstitious. He wants the old paints back. Well he got the top wing stripes but only one stripe on the tail and I left the rudder red with the circle. Please vote. Wurgs stripes

S! I posted the PD12 planes as well ad Dr1s for Reinhardt and vonKost PD12 Reinhart Dr1 vonKost Dr1

S! Maus is smaller now. Tragedy with Wurger. I was tes flying his plane and had to do a cross wind landing. I ground looped and flipped the plane. I got out ok but it caught on fire. I did not want to paint the replacement in the same pattern, thinking it would be bad luck. New paint for Wurger. Truth is, he saw Maus's stripe and wanted one also. Wurg's paint

S! All Link for all planes. These are just color and marking studies so they look bright. Have not done levels or alpha layers yet. Patterns are variation on previous themes. Trying to get away from monochromatic schemes. No all RED or all BLACK planes. Tried to do blood streaks on Hett's plane. Don't think it works. Please list changes. planes

S! Updated 2 pics of Max's Dr 1. Moved R down to tail plane. Underside of tail plane now mirrors upper side. Bottom of Fuselage is black. I like the R and underside of tail plane. Think Underside of Fuselage was better as blue. Trying to avoid ALL black planes. Labroisse has a couple and the problem is that at a distance they look like no color. You do not know if you are out of range to see color or if it is the paint.

S! Did some preliminary studies. I think VK's is ok. Max needs to look his over. I moved the eagle back and made a black area. The wheels are mostly black with some yellow shine through. I moved the R to the turtle deck. For the most part, I think it is ok. Very easy to spot at a distance. Planes
