• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

@ ZoltB and Cmdr.Mugel: gentlemen, do you have the hotfix/update installed ? Can you shoot a screenshot of Tomcat on the tarmac/deck, canopy open but boardingstep/ladder retracted ? (one of the options from the hotfix but i fail to find it)

Nice screenies, guys ! :encouragement:

Thanks Kenneth. My machine is at the lower end of the scale as far as specs are concerned so I didn't think there was any chance it was going to be anything other than a slide show using those photo textures. To be honest I didn't think the textures I opted for where that bad ( a step up from vanilla FSX and XP11 for sure) but I figured I'd give them a try after you mentioned it. Wow! amazing... like discovering the Sim all over again and performance ok so far. I'm gonna delete all my previous screenshots so I can enjoy starting over.

That's fantastic... So happy for you. - Kenneth
 
In the grand scheme of things imho both the Spifire and Hunter are much more beautiful aeroplanes than the Holy Moly Tomcat... :playful:

Alright ! Thank you ! :encouragement: (i still have trouble getting along with that Jester menu. Although it is much better now that i deactivated cockpit tooltips which, regarding the Jester menu, did nothing else but flicker on and off. Really annoying )
