Oooooooooooh no... Einstein will be in here in no time with energetic commentary about the use of tags!

And actually now that I'm looking at it- did ice CRASH or did his computer / connection die on him?

Is this the place where the noobs come? I just got this installed and was looking for some joystick files to run it with. Didn't find any in the usual places that I remembered to search? I have a Cougar btw if anyone knows.

Oh alright then, I'll set the stenken Labels to initial Off our_readers cool


- Ice got smacked by a SA-19 Tunguska which cause his jet to crash - need to stay above ~18,000 or those nasties will rip you.

It was a good challenge and we could have done it, except for - Ice's little encounter and because I was having some MFCD issues at Nuke Plant 4 that required me to come back for another pass.

Then we went into Road Kill and had what? 5 SimHQ members, all in TS, too. That's the mission that gets intense with Red RDR forces surrounding the Blue BLF base - lots of lag at that point, hoping to see this go away on Eno's. We had a good discussion on mission issues - GreyGhost joined in with great feedback, and from - Ice before he had to retire. tomcat, Jabow, Pmike, a good late night.

These two missions are pretty well settled, I think. If Road Kill continues to show lag on Eno's then I will pare the number of units.


I appreciate feedback - I am about to start building another mission.

Hi WarfRat -
Yes you found the right place!

Check out this post on Cougar switches -
Cougar & A-10C

You will have to build a profile from this if you can't find someone else's file to start from. I don't have a Cougar in the house anymore.

Hope to see you upstairs soon.

Oh, and there was this surprise MiG attack, too. Run away! Run away! - Ice really showed them, though, as he ran them right into a mountain. Good thing, too, cause we were cornered, and switching to A-A mode against '29s. That's why I had MFCD troubles... scheesh

Well, here is the logic behind Label control. From this, Labels cannot be set to initially be Off with the option to turn them On in sim. They are either Forced Off or Initially On, Selectable.

The bolded boxed sections show what to set the Mission Options to in order to get the desired choice of the two possible outcomes. For Road Kill and Nuke Plant I will use the Mission Options in the bottom box - with Enforce and Value set to checked.

Eh warf and welcome. I'd like to be more help in your search but googling "cougar profiles" brings me to a bunch of personals ads for women in their mid 40s.

Kidding- sort of.

Not sure if the file crew provided was the one you were looking for but I did a google search for cougar profile a-10c and got a number of file locations from a variety of users but most are about a year old. You may have already tried this and if so sorry for the redundant info. Let us know how you make out!

Eno -
I got onto your server into the Nuke Plant mission. I had to use the History tab to see it.

I was amazed at how fast I joined the mission - it was seconds. I hope that keeps up!

The mission was in Day 3, Hour 18 - so no stability issues. All the forces were where they should be if no A-10C intervention was made.

But something that I've seen before in LOMAC is where the surface details such as buildings disappear. Here is a screen shot of Nuke Plant 3. The only detail are the target objects that I placed around the cooling towers - the cooling towers and the regular buildings are gone. I don't think this is a server issue, rather something in the sim and how long the mission has been going.


There should be a 5 story cooling tower and city buildings in this pic -

Appreciate it WC and Eno. I did find 1 or 2 that were a year old,any idea of how the updates may affect the older commands? May just have to try 1 and see,did not buy the sim to just have it sit!

Okay- I will get the GF to reset it tonight... I'll get her to load the Roadkill mission instead to give people some work to do.

I wonder if some of that might come from guys hitting targets and having them "burn off" over time?
