Is there a place where I can DL the Expert Flight Manual in PDF? It's kind of impossible to find this. I only found the simplified one.

I didn't get a disc 2 with my F-15, so I just used one at replacementdocs. Great website.

Details below:
I am running an Intel Dual core and a 9800GTX. I used Zeckensack's .84c glide wrapper. I am posting some screenshots and the actual glide files I used if you want to try. Just move all instances of glide.dll, glide2x.dll, and glide3x.dll out of the windows directory and replace them with the files in the .zip file. In my JF-15 all graphics are maxed and "No page flipping is selected." Hope it works for you.

-------------------
No graphical anomalies. No smudged HUD text. No UFC text smear. No ghosting cursors. No gridlines. Textures (especially terrain) are crystal clear smile There is one catch, enabling A/A or A/F results in ghosting cursor on the HUD, so keep it off. While they would be nice, at this res the sim wont look ugly with them off.


Can't get your files. Can you please upload them again thanks.

Sure. Mediafire files sure die quick, eh? I re-upped them just a few weeks ago there and the link is already down. I tried a different one. Hopefully it stays put longer. Here ya go ^^

Note these are just the glide files, without the installer. They should work w/o having to install the whole .84c package. Be sure to delete any glide files in your c:\windows directoy from other wrappers, or they will cause problems. Hope it works out.

Phoenix is there any chance that F-15 will run on windows 7? I mean I've been able to run it but the menus are messed up, and for proper single missions or campaigns you need the menus. I've tried everything I can think of:

Compatibility mode (win98)
Compatibility mode (Win XP Sp3)
Xp mode

Vm ware (XP installed)
Virtual box (XP installed)
Virtual box (Ubuntu installed with Wine installed)


I really love this game but its sooo hard to properly run it on modern hardware !!!! If you can think of anything, please share the info.

Thankx
