Long time no talk, guys!
So I just reinstalled the good old CFS3 and boy, am I out of the loop.
So what was the deal with the compositetexturebudgets.xml and all that, DOH!?
Don't worry, I'll be getting my head around it!:a1089:

This wasn't a question btw, just a funky way of saying hello, I guess. :-)

I was afraid to hear that, LOL!
for now I'm fighting with the keyboard commands and trying to get MAW up and running.
Now what was our release version? 1.3?

Welcome back! There's been a lot of improvements over the years, make sure you grab the new DX9 shaders, makes the sim look at least a decade newer!

First entry here: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?catid=161

Self-shadowing, working reflector gunsights, high-altitude contrails, bump maps, light maps, reflective water, cockpit damage, and a lot more are all possible now.

Well, look who is still alive and kicking!! How you doing Mat!?! Not many of the original guys from MAW around, except for John, see Luca once in a while, but no one else. That seems like such a long time ago now. But it was fun though. Haven't flown CFS3 in a while myself, but I keep checking in, to see what they are up to.

My word, the prodigal returns! :173go1: Great to hear from you again, Mathias, hope things are well with you. As the guys have said, there's a bit to catch up with, especially Ankor's new shaders for the sim and the stickies above are worth a browse. Otherwise, the usual fun and games.

Make yourself at home! :wavey:

Actually you want the newer one that's here instead.

This is also the place to get the dynamic gunsights, and dash panel lighting that go with it.

Thanks much for the warm welcome back, guys, makes me feel right at home again! :-)
John, Ted, Eddie, Luca etc pp, great to see you all still hanging around here.
So for now I'm just trying to relearn the keyboard commands and flying in general, LOL.
Allready shot down some unaware wingmen. Thankfully they don't shoot back, hehe...

MajorMagee, great stuff this mod. I dropped it into the stock CFS3 install and it's really what we where missing back then.
Is it compatible with MAW and ETO?

Yep, works on any install. Not all the features are activated automatically though, you have to add the gunsights and lighting effects manually.

If you check his profile you'll get his last visit time - today. Still lurking, methinks. :wavey:
