Franze, I downloaded the wingman extreme file from Logitech 's site and moved it to the Longbow main file and the hat views work fine. I will probably create virtual disks as you suggested.

The games does not crash anymore. Sweet! I can fly al the missions now, just re copied the files to new disks and everything is smooth.
I have one more hurdle, the Blackhawk's cannons & guns are not accessible. I can't engage the guns on it, is there a key or known issue?

Guys,
I tried again, even on a campaign, and the numeric keys for the door gun are not working for me. Maybe if I try the key mapping change on the options menu?

Hello All,
I used the guide and have the game seemingly working fine. However, the color seems to be a little off. I think I have a tinge of purple mixed in with my screen. My sky is not as blue as those in the pics in this thread. Can anyone help?
Thanks
Nevermind. I think it was my Gamma correction in my Catalyst Control Center. I set it down to 1.1. 1.0 seemed a little too bright for me, monitor is at 50 in brightness

Does anyone know what the "Tree" values do in the graphics config files? I seem to remember, way back when Longbow 2 was just released, screenshots showing actual trees spread out through the terrain.

I got my new puter running with LB2 on WinXP SP2 Multimedia It is a dual2core Intel processor with 2Gigs RAM and an ATI x1950pro video card To run LB2 all I had to do was: - Install LB2 and patch - setup for 3dfx with LBCFG.EXE - the usual LB2 CA.INI file tweaks - configure the DGVOODOO Glide wrapper - set virtual swap memory to zero (I have 2Gigs RAM) Only one thing caught my attention, the BASE SCREENs all said UNAVAILBLE for LOW/MED/HIGH resolution settings for the graphics in the LB2 GUI. Anyways, LB2 ran no problems on a 22 inch LCD flat panel at 1680x1050x32

The lines show up more in day than night, plus in this case Im using x8 FSAA and I believe that helps to hide it.

Nice indeed  But how's the game speed? I've been playing it since 2 weeks on a Core2 duo 6300 (+ 8800GTS and DGvoodoo glidewrapper) and but found the game running about 2-3x times too fast. I measured it with the HUD-time to next waypoint: at constant speed 2 mins to nexs waypoint should be exact 2 mins measured, but it was less then a minute at first. Searched for some program that could lower CPU speed, but did not have any succes untill for no apparrent reason I throttled the Core2duo with Intel Thermal Analysis Tool. I found out that when I ran my C2d throttled to 25% (+/- 750mhz) 2 mins HUD time is actually 2 mins in realtime!! The game now runs supersmooth on 1600x1050, 8x FSAA and 16x AF So: if you want to run LB2 on a core2duo and need to lower the game's speed: use INTEL TAT!  Only problem is that gun and rocket accuracy (guns works good enough on longer ranges - >0.5kms - because of the bulletspread, rockets are virtually unusable)
