can you guysrecommend soem fighter sim ... no prop planes though modern day interceptors is the keyword

[Scuddie]

LO-MAC

[Unknown Target]

Yes, LOMAC definately. Although if you can find them, and don't mind them being a little dated, get Jane's F-15 and F/A-18.

I'd recommend Falcon 4, but that sim is just plain anal.

[Fineus]

Battlefield 1942 with Desert Combat installed!

[Nuke]

id kill for a realistic, nam era, combat flight sim, choppers and planes.

[IceFire]

Forgotten Battles+Ace Expansion Pack+Pacific Fighters!

What....there's a couple of jets in there.  Try the Me-262

[Ashrak]

dc flight combat is plain unrealistic


i used to kill troops by squashing them in a mig 29 ... just fly close enough to the ground and splat

[Gloriano]

Lock-on modern air combat  or those games that Ice suggested


edit: i really hate timewarp:hopping:

[Fineus]

I never said it was realistic, but it's damn fun

[Scuddie]

Speaking of Jane's combat simulations, whatever happened to them anyway?  Jane's F/A-18 and Jane's USAF were some of the best modern combat flight sims in the world.

Bingo, Best flight sims ever.

[Corsair]

Just don't play Jet Fighter IV or any of the other ones from that series. They're not too good.

[IceFire]

Lock On just got an addon that came out too.  Lockon 1.1: Flaming Cliffs (some sort of Russian translated name ).

The demo is good fun but I'm still learning how to fly the A-10 and then operate its various complex systems.  I did figure out how to use Sidewinders however...that was no problem.

Planes?

Strike Fighters: Project 1 I believe is set in the Vietnam area...altho it might be Korea. I do know there was also a Korean war sim, MiG Alley.

[aldo_14]

I heard Strike Fighters was a buggy mess, though.

[Unknown Target]

I heard it was too, but it got some patches and now it's supposadly super good.

[NGTM-1R]

Falcon 3.0 remains my favorite, with its alterable realism settings.

[Nuke]

Hmmm, the only one I can think of is Apache/Havoc, it hasn't been in stores for years, but you could probley find it on ebay real cheap.



I don't play Lo-Mac that much anymore, because of it's bad framerates.

[IceFire]

For those interested in Lomac like I am, try the Lock On 1.1 demo.  Can be found here: http://www.lockon.ru/

As I understand it WeatherOp, if you're having difficulties with the FPS in Lockon, you should ask around and see if they have a solution for you.  I know with IL2 FB the right driver version and the right settings in the INI files works wonders between a 20fps slideshow and a 50fps enjoyable experience.
