I am also having a strange FM glitch with rapidly progressing aircraft oscillation on yaw and pitch axis. F-4 is especially susceptible to this. Is there a fix?

Hi all,
I am working on the new Las Vegas terrain and etc. You can try test version of this. I cannot create terrain same as origin terrain. There is some map shift. If someone can create a new map to be same as origin map, its welcome. Finally resolution of the Las Vegas map shoud be 81920x65536. I cannot extract DEM file yet. I can extract fallback dem, but it must be in resolution 640x512. Its not good resolution for nice heightmap.

I've got 7-zip.still comes up corrupted.it's weird.Every single version of this patch I've dl'ed comes up corrupted. I've downloaded from at least 10 different sources and at least five different sizes.From 24 mb to 2 gb. I have 7z files all over my computer from big to little. They all work just fine. I've tried winrar, winace and 7-zip,no go. The one you just posted above says "We're sorry. You can't access this item because it is in violation of our Terms of Service. Find out more about this topic at the Google Drive Help Center". i'm starting to think it's a conspiracy. Someone doesn't want me playing Jane's USAF.

OMG, not only did that archive unzip correctly but, you gave me back my all time favorite sim. I haven't been able to play USAF in 5 years. Runs perfect. Thanks Tcklbrry. It's good to know that there are not only people out there dedicated to keeping the best sims running but , are willing to help other people get them working. Kudos.

Reshade 3.1.1 is included in my version. You can install ReShade to main USAF directory and experiment.

Hi all,
I have updated the patch with the new version of dgVoodoo and ReShade. In archive you can find the official patch 1.02f, hotfix, reshade and enhanced textures. The official patch and hotfix is mandatory to install for correct working. Reshade and textures are optional to install. Nice flying.

Cheers,

Hi, Tcklbrry! Thank you for not forgetting this game and keep working on improving it! Installed your new patch. Everything works fine, but for myself I would like to clarify the points.
1. Which device should I select in usafconfig.exe?
2. Do I understand correctly that the graphics of the game should be adjusted through dgVoodooCpl.exe? If so, what settings should be there in the genaral, glide and directx tab, or I need to choose something one.
3. During the game, the fps counter shows "20", although the game itself seems to be running smoothly. Is that okay?
4. In the folder with the game I have 2 exe file: usaf.exe and usaf.fs.exe. What should I choose to run?
5. Is it possible to run israel air force in full hd, if so, how to do it?
Thank you again for your support!

Hi, Tcklbrry,

sadly I have not so much time for my hobby at the moment and so I'm not as often in the forums as I was earlier. I wanted to download your alpha version of Las Vegas, but the link is dead now.

Do you have a new link to the terrain?

Thank's a lot for your work on USAF! Another good old simulation which never should die! So sad that there is no more way to get the good old Longbow Anthology running on modern systems. Those old simulations were really great, especially the whole Jane's series, but some of them are nearly impossible to get them running again on todays machines, so I'm very happy if an enthusiast like you is working to get those old titles running again! Many thanks!!!

Hi fro4,

1) Usually first (Primary Device) or if you have more monitors you can select one of them
2) USAF is based on DirectX. You can select some settings in "General" and "DirectX" tab
3) FPS is dependend on your hardware. Around 30 FPS is good. Big impact on performance has "Antialiasing (MSAA)" in "DirectX" tab. "4x" value is enough and it looks nice too. Set smaller values for better performance
4) USAF.exe is for windowed mode and USAF.fs.exe is for fullscreen mode. USAF menu is always in windowed mode because it is GDI interface and dgVoodoo does not show correctly this
5) It is not possible. IAF is hardcoded in 640x320 resolution

I hope this help. smile
