Off-Topic / silian's picture quiz.
« on: 12-03-2011, 18:03:25 »
Most of the forum vets should remember Gauntlet's picture quizzes, i always enjoyed them and though i'd start one of my own.

Anyway, if there is enough interest i'll put one up each week, which should give me plenty of time to compile the next one and give plenty of time to identify the image subjects. Answers can be submitted via PM, or if you want give others the answers, post 'em in the thread ;). You can change your answers if you wish, answers need not be submitted all at once, though no answers will be accepted after 00:00 GMT the following Friday. Each quiz will have a maximum of 15 points availible, 1 point for each picture, most pictures will have an additional half point for giving the correct full designation (including codenames, for Soviet/Russian/Chinese equipment, Japanese WW2 planes etc), to test people's equipment ID skills.



The first three images are worth one point each, the remaining eight are worth one and a half points.

Off-Topic / Parlez-vous Francais?
« on: 08-02-2011, 14:02:48 »
I am in need of a bit of assistance from the french speaking members of the community, i want to contact a seller on ebay.fr, but don't really want to resort to using babelfish/google translate, anyway if any of you could translate the following text for me it would be very much appreciated!

I'm very interested in purchasing this item, would you be able to arrange postage to the UK? If you are able to i would pay an additional 25 euros to cover the cost of postage and to make up for any inconvenience that may be caused.

Off-Topic / WW2 Bomber to be brought back from extinction.
« on: 29-08-2010, 22:08:06 »
Early next year an example of an extinct* WW2 bomber is planned to be recovered.

To make things interesting i'll let you guys guess what type it is, i'll reveal what it's in just over an hour, unless someone guesses correctly.  ;)

* No examples (other than fragments) reside above the surface of the earth/sea.

Edit:

Dornier Do 17 (most likely a Do-17Z), located off the South-East coast of the UK, to be recovered on the behalf of the RAF Museum.

Modding / BF2 Editor issue.
« on: 27-03-2010, 23:03:26 »
Just recently got back in the mood for mapping and thought i'd extract the v2.25 files, had about 30 errors come up on first startup, resolved most by deleting various files/folders, however one (see attachment) is still stopping me from using the editor, i've removed the No4_short .con and tweak files from fh2\Objects\weapons\Handheld, and then removed the armament, Common, handheld and Projectiles folders from the fh2\Objects\weapons directory as well to no avail.

Playing on Pointe du Hoc, while on the Flakvierling 38 i noticed that when you press 'x' to bring up the gunsight it fires the gun, if you hold down the X key it fires continuously.
