Every time i try to start AOTK, it says it can't find a font file it needs. The file is on my harddrive and appears OK, but AOTK doesn't like it for some reason. I'm running on a Packard Bell dx2-66 with 4mb RAM... Any suggestions? Thank you, Chris Long live Falcon!!! ------------------------------- From: baechler@lia.di.epfl.ch (Emmanuel Baechler) Subject: Availability of "The art of kill" Hi, does anybody know wether the book "the art of kill" is available separately, or with a PAL videocassette? NTSC VCR are very rare in Europe. Many thanks in advance - -- Emmanuel Baechler. baechler@lia.di.epfl.ch [long sig deleted --Jeff] ------------------------------- From: baechler@lia.di.epfl.ch (Emmanuel Baechler) Subject: How to use Sidwinders? Hi, I'm learning the bases of dogfighting (and padlock view) with the eighth lesson. In this lesson, I have to figh two unarmed Mig-23 and one armed Mig-27. In this lesson, the Mig-23 aren't a problem at all. Once you are very close (2 miles or less), an AIM-9M kills them almost 100% of the time. On another hand, the Mig-27 gives me a much harder time. Even when I am very close, they use chaffs very efficiently so that I can shoot 5 AIM-9M and get no touch at all. So, how do you use missiles? In which configuration should you be so that shots are efficient? Even the Internet guide doesn't say a lot about this. Any help will be appreciated. - -- Emmanuel Baechler. baechler@lia.di.epfl.ch [ long sig deleted --Jeff] ------------------------------- From: Tuncay Goncuoglu Subject: questions... Hi Everybody... I am new with F3 and have some *stupid* questions ... 1- Once I was flying over Kuwait and my mission was to bomb some SAM radars. I got over the target and began to bomb it. But, suddenly something shot me down. I was sure that it wasn't ant SAM or AAA because I already destroyed them. I took a look around and saw two MIG-21's. The strange thing is that my radar showed NOTHING in air during all my flight. Can anyone explain me why my radar blind was ? 2- I ftp'ed f304_1 and f304_2. But after installing them, my computer asked for a third diskette, but there was no such one... Is there any file like f304_2.zip on ftp.k9.com or am I beginnig to overload my CPU ( :-) ) ??? [ You're probably not using the right install program. You're probably using the program that is designed to install hornet, instead of the program that only patches falcon3. Read the readme file that comes with the disks, and it'll tell you how to install the patch only. -Jeff ] 3- I usually assign a flight to provide sead over the path i will fly. This is almost always a two plane flight, and (almost always) one of these planes crashes even before I take off. Many times there is no enemy aircraft around but still they fall out of the sky. Once I looked for what the plane does before crashing. It begun to dive and never tried to get out of that dive. If anyone has any idea about what happens, please; let me know... Thanks in advance...
