[QUOTE=MadCatMkII;23585778]I mean land, not crash :arghfist::saddowns: I mean, I'm certainly not new to flight simulators, but jeeze, I even hit the airbrake key and nothing happens since most planes don't have airbrakes. I'd really like to know how to slow down :frown:[/QUOTE] Just lower your speed down to 20% to prepare for landing, and when you touch down, use the land brake.

I'd really like to know how to slow down :frown:[/QUOTE] Throttle down, lower your gear and flaps fully, and negate any lift by pushing down with the elevators. Having both the elevators and flaps out will give you enough drag to shear off speed pretty quickly. Also note you shouldn't approach the runway at too high an angle, because you'll have to drop further and it'll be much harder to loose speed. If you're desperate, opening the radiator also causes some drag.
I'll try that, guys.
Installing HSFX on my client and server now, should take about 30 minutes or so. Message me on steam or invite me to the group chat whenever you guys want to start a game.
Im defiantly buying this. as soon as I get a replacement graphics card.
Get the fuck in group chat, we're gunna start a game up

Any way to improve graphics? I'm just looking to improve the way the terrains look. Also, any way to make it accept widescreen resolutions? Namely 1366 x 768
Where's the steam group? I don't have the steam version, but I patched it up to the newest (4.09m I think?) version

For those of you who want HSFX 4 and 4.1 here are the links to the torrents since all the mirrors are down. [url]http://filesmelt.com/dl/HSFX4.torrent[/url] [url]http://filesmelt.com/dl/HSFX_Version_4_1.EXE.torrent[/url]
[QUOTE=Used Car Salesman;16342025]Is there an IL2-quality game for modern jet combat? I guess there's always LOMAC, but there are only five planes you can actually fly.[/QUOTE] Try Lock on: flaming cliffs 2. It is a addon that adds a new plane or two and vastly enhances them all. This game is Quality, not Quantity.
LOMAC (If you can find them, Janes games) Falcon 4.0 The old Janes USAF had some great flight dynamics
There is the new lock on platinum with both of the addons and the base game for $25.
So where can i get a plane pack with more planes?
