That actually looks pretty good...

Looks even better when your trouncing down on armoured columns lobbing rockets in a tiffie!

More online madness with Larry,..





After a diving turn from 2 o'clock I score hits and after suffering damage decide to carry on the dive to break off for home whilst the my B-17 Target starts to burn and drop from the formation that can just be seen to the right of the image.


Larrys torp hits the ship just as I am about to fly over in me 410,

I was happy to get that hit. That was the first time I had flown that plane in CFS3 and the first attempt at dropping a fish!

It was a good hit too....just aft of mid-ships and right in the engine room!

Neat, I picked up the boxed CFS3 yesterday at the whopping price of £2

Does the disk version need any patches, do you know? That terrain mod looks pretty cool - where can I get that if possible? Looks like i'll have to do some shopping here whilst I'm at it.

Thanks Lewis.

Better purchase FIREPOWER then.

You might want to check the version you have once it is installed as there are a couple of updates for it.

If you navigate to your install folder and then right click on the CFS3.exe and select 'Version' it should say '3.1.0.30203' if it is already patched up to the latest level. If you don't see that number you will need to patch it.

Patch 3.1 and 3.1a can be found at the following website.....

http://www.microsoft.com/Games/combatfs3/downloads.aspx

Apply patch 3.1 first and then 3.1a.

Looks like I will have to download those terrain mods, looks much better than stock.

Lewis what are your PC specs, do you run on a dual core and what number are the sliders on for the terrain.

I would like to upgrade my PC but are still worried about getting a dual core as I have heard various reports about CFS3 not working very well on dual core PC's.

With the MAW and OFF mods being developed I am looking to a long future for CFS3.

cheers markl

Well, I registered over there and had a look around. All I could find was variations of the mod, I can't seem to find JohnoUK , what are the names of the scenery, terrain mods you are using? maybe I can find them that way
.
I must be missing something as per usual.

His 'handle' over there is 'johno_UK' and you can search for his stuff by author name in the add-ons area.

I just did a search for you and here is a link to all his stuff......
