*sigh*

Yes, you're right! Unfortunately the wide angle in EF2000 is only possible in padlock mode.
Playing both games at full resolution with DX8 or DX9 Graphics would be awesome.
I'm happy that EF2000 allows me to play the game in widescreeen, that's ideal for my monitor
Cool, that such an old game supports this!

A combination of both sims would be the ultimate modern times fighter simulator with two of the most sophisticated fighter planes. Ahh, I can almost see it before my eyes!

I still have the original EF2000 box and the manual, so I don't need most stuff from the Super EF2000 pdf

Well, if you look at Doom now, it's the other way around: You can clearly see how crappy these 2D sprite monsters were. EF2000 had 3D models at that time
Maybe it's like good wine. Some games need time to show their real qualities

I don't know Falcon4 very much.
Maybe I should give it a try, too.
