Have at last been able to take a closer look at F 2.5 (had a couple of early morning shifts). F 2.5 would appear to have a couple of warts (and some very beautiful new features). After having first installed the Voodoo 4-5 version I reinstalled F2 + F2.5 non-Voodoo patch this afternoon and deleted the PCI folders. The difference is rather stunning to say the least. Despite using a Voodoo 4 I am getting a better quality graphics using the non-Voodoo version of the patch.
The cannon pipper seems very "Jumpy" compared to version 2.03a. It is sync-ed properly but you have to work to get a get good shot IMHO.
I have also had a couple of CTD's in both Voodoo an Non-Voodoo versions. Question is this :
Anyone else experiencing same things ?
Grem (despite minor problems at this time enjoying the F 2.5 upgrade)

actually, it seems that it's more realistic than before, more sensitive to G's and gravity

TooCool, Have you watched the Top Gun credits?
I recently saw them and among the F-14 Crew callsigns i noticed someone with the callsign "Too Cool"

I've seen it too, but my callsign comes from my instructor after a hairy take off in 1991 (my fourth flying hour) when we almost made a big hamburger out of a couple of cows right at the end of the runway...

the poor guy was sweaty as hell after that one, and after we were back at the aeroclub's bar, they talked about it. Someone noticed that I remained cool in such a hairy situation, and the instructor replied:" yeah, too cool...", and it stayed since
