That IS cool. And that is SO the kind of shit I'd do

@Vonrd Please see the updated Pfalz D.IIIa post above and accept the updated file version. PD3a post Thanks! Luft

Luftritter Fokker D.VIIF to be added, as soon as you're able. Skin by Larner. No mistakes in this one Luftritter Fokker D.VIIF Thanks!!

Many thanks....we can't have that first thread getting out of hand. I think maybe Vonrd might already have a hard enough time keeping track.

Yeah. You probably upgraded firmware recently? Go into DIView, right-click on that axis, calibrate. Then hit "reset to defaults". What can happen, if you happen to have a failed calibration, the the end point values can get screwed up. If an end point gets a number in it that's less than a value that's somewhere in between, it will "jump" back once you surpass that number. Setting it back to defaults will make the low end 0, the high end 4096, and the middle 2048 (or something like that). You can readjust the calibration after that once it's working again, if necessary.

Sure!

I actually made this one myself Request this be added to our JG1 official skin pack. Luftritter Pfalz D.IIIa EDIT: The original file has been replaced with an improved version. Crosses changed to Iron Cross style, skin base color corrected to standard gray, tires color improved. Anybody who got the first version, please delete it and replace it with the file from the updated link above. Photos of final version:

Awesome work!

Get you some of those soft velcro ties. They're removable, re-usable, and easy to work with

Guess who was first? I love Huey Lewis just as much. Ironic that he is going deaf!

You've been missing a lot lately on the FC side, what with Black September in full swing. There are high hopes for the future of FiF, from what I've experienced. It really is better. Hope to see you back with us soon!

Donald Fagan, of Steely Dan. Possibly the best group to have ever existed, if there is such a thing. What memories of young adulthood he (and they) engender....and moods that are now hard to imagine. Thumbs up, sir!

True dat! And also, the ability to forget is paramount for maintaining sanity (or is that encompassed in the above quote?). Which is why (I tell others) that I can't remember a tenth of what I've learned, LOL

Don't you do that....when you can get one of these (or other brand) Monster mounts that lower your devices in a completely adjustable way: Monster mounts Even if they don't make an adapter plate for your specific stick (not sure about that), you can easily make an adapter plate of your own from plywood, plexiglas, whatever. Just take out the screws from the bottom side of your base and get longer ones to cover the width of the adapter plate (sheet metal screws, most likely). You get the idea.

You missed the point. Running two videos off of one video card is like running it at an extremely high resolution. I don't care what kind of video card you have, that is extra work for it....not to mention the possibility of multi-screen bugs. Do you not know me by now? I am all about performance and winning Making things work off of single devices is secondary, to say the least. Nothing happens by magic Truthfully, a lot of this hardware I have (that monitor above used to be my primary monitor) is just leftovers that I've found a secondary use for. Thus, the secondary system. Did I fail to mention that the cost of that SBC (was) less than $75.00 ? There is some amazing shit going on, if you keep abreast of it. PS, miss flying with you. When are you coming back?

Shut 'jo mouf I swear that when I was flying in the very first iterations of FiF, a million years ago, I had a 21 inch CRT that dwarfed that....that one must only be a 19 inch! But dayam, did it perform!! And don't you pretend you didn't....!

What do you put in their food, to keep them from biting wires and smacking you upside the head while flying, LOL? I love cats, and dogs. There is no one or the other, for me.

I just import map files as .jpg's and just make them my desktop image. To be active I'd have to setup a split screen, and I'm not even sure how to do that; but in any case I'd be running both screens with one video card then, and I don't want to compromise my game performance. This way it is absolutely separate. That second screen is run by a single board computer called a "Raspberry Pi". It fits in the palm of your hand and, has four USB 2.0, ethernet, HDMI video, and even wireless: It runs on a version of Linux called "Raspbian". The case (with fan) are separate items. That clear one I have opens up easily on hinge from the top. I added the switch for the case fan. For what I use it for, it doesn't even need one, and so runs totally silent.

That Pfalz is my favorite....really nice color coordination. Looking forward to seeing it in the game. I'll wait for Vonrd to update the main pack so we all have the same file names for your planes. Up to now, Vonrd and Larner have made all of my skins. I just got started a week ago and I'm about to release a Pfalz that I did myself. I'm extremely slow and am probably doing things in an inefficient manner; considering all of the planes everybody puts out, you're at least 10 times faster than I am. But I am very happy with the results, as it is about 90% done. S!

What's up with the big mic....karaoke? Maybe streaming?

@AngryGoat I really like your goat symbol that you use on the side. Your color schemes are certainly varied! Great job on all of them. I am not sure whether it matters in what way the files are submitted.... have to see what Vonrd and admins have to say about that.

Baer's live stream What a great time we had flying together on the Entente side this week 3 of B.S. ! A couple of valiant J6 fellows may have been set upon by us, without us knowing it at the time. They caused us to be captured, in at least a couple of cases. S! J6 and all of the other Central folks we encountered!

The (computer) hardware is really worth knowing at this moment in time, but it will seem ridiculous later in time I've posted picture before on other areas of this forum, but it is much easier to just post a new one....those others are buried. It is obvious we are much the same, Heinrich, with our Virpil and MFG pedal setups....the only difference is really how they're mounted, and as far as I'm concerned, it's mainly how it ends up feeling to the user, in the end. It is just a picture, but it can't convey the sense of ease I feel in using it. Technically, the lower screen is "bigger", but it is only because screens are measured diagonally. However, the resolution on that screen is 2K, compared to the screen above it, which is 1K. But it is a gaming monitor, and so has much faster response times. If you look closely, you will see Klaiber's current rig, cat and all, pictured on my main (lower) screen. The control harware is entirely Virpil of course, but with the "new" (soon to be obsolete) CM2 grip. I scoot my non-wheeled, non-rotating chair up to within a finger's width, centered, of that keyboard tray. Nothing moves; everything is exact. Then I am ready to kill folks (who are not on my team) I love this shit. BTW, the lit magnifying glass in your picture (left side), we used to use those all of the time in my old electronics technician job to do very small repairs on circuit boards. BTW, BTW, every thing to the left and right is books. I read every night that I'm not too tired

Very sorry to hear that. Your value has become extremely important to me

If you could zip it (or them) up and then upload it to any file hosting site....like google drive, MS one drive, dropbox, or whatever, then share it and provide a link (on the FC skin submission area of our forum) to that shared file, it would be great PS....we miss your Dr.1 when flying Central. I would personally love to wing up with you and/or J6 in Dr.1's in Black September if you ever can make it on Saturdays at 1:00 PM EDT. Although registration did occur for that event, the servers have not been passworded in any week yet and you can fly regardless. S!
