GDay Sting, and GDay JetWash! How goes guys?
Update : Still looking for a disc… Have tried my original in many drives - no good… Reluctant to go the steam route - I like physical media (not a fan of SaaS and ‘downloads’, etc)…

Welcome back Zaggy, long time mate Hope family and health are good man.
Oh and to reply to this properly, Jet.
Welcome back Zaggy
Cheers mate
long time mate
Indeed - been a good few years since I did much w.r.t. F4. Though I see in Video’s, some of my Skins persist in 4.33… That is properly awesome
Hope family and health are good man.
My cat is good (same cat that I had for the past 17 years ) - Health, well… yeah that’s so-so (remember, I got clobbered by a B-Double Fuel Tanker, and had my lower spine and neck crushed…in 6 places), but on the positive side, it could be MUCH worse also. At least I get to teach at Uni these days, research, write (Luftwaffe History), build model planes (when I have time), shoot, and recently been learning how to 3D Model for 3D Printers… Must put more time into that; because its kind of awesome!
How are you and the old school Australian Crew? The most recent one’s I’ve spoken to are Buckshot, and Buzz. Though Buzz is in Townsville now, which is a long way away - I regret not being able to catch up with him before he left Richmond and moved North… We had some damn good nights out!

Welcome back, Zaggy. Glad to hear you’re doing alright! I still appreciate you showing me the ropes on photoshop through Open Skins all those years ago. :blowpar:
-
Well that was the point of OpenSkins, TigerDew/TigerBlood - get more people involved! Once you have a basic layout with panel lines, skinning becomes fairly simple… And once you have that basic skin, with camo and mild weathering and etc (and the right fonts installed), adding whatever markings you like, becomes something almost anyone can do. And once some see’s they can do something, they get inspired to learn and expand their knowledge… Next thing you know, you have someone who skins better than me and we’re all better off for it!
Moral of the story though, glad you liked what you saw, and hope you learnt some cool stuff from it

just by a version at GOG … doing so you support falcon 4.0 development.
Size of download is not argument since size of BMS is much bigger.
just support the cause !
-
I may have found a back-up ISO, on an old 120Gb Drive - that’s promising…

It’s now starting to become harder to come up with different ‘signatures’ for each post… hahahaha

7 bucks at Steam and you’d be flying BMS now.

Dial Up at home… It would take a few days of Downloading off Steam. And I have too much Marking and Work ATM (no rest for the wicked, as they say)… One week til Mid-Semester break though

Even dial up won’t take too long. Do it while you’re sleeping. I have a fast connection and F4 at Steam take me 1 minute to D/L. Even dial up won’t be that long. Installing Steam will take longer if you don’t have it. I would worry about downloading BMS way more than F4. BMS is pretty big and there’s no way you can get out of doing it.
-
Yes, but I can get BMS while at work - where I regularly see 25MBytes per sec download, while working… Basically the Hard Drive becomes the bottle neck
So yeah, I’m going to grab BMS there, chuck it on a flash drive, and install at home.

Again, if you don’t want to deal with Steam…
Learn from Pete’s experience here and consider buying the GoG version if you have issues with Steam or if it annoys you. With the GoG version, you can definitely download it at work, put it on a USB drive, take it home, and install it.
My install procedure uses the GoG version and you can clearly see how to download it off GoG.

It’s not that bad Ice. I have 17 games I bought on Steam in the past. Now I can D/L them if I feel like it.
-
Ok cool. Last time you were talking about it, it sounded like you were really bothered by it.
Also just making sure Zaggy was aware of the alternatives
-
No, the last time I said it’s no big deal now that I got it off the startup. I don’t even know it’s there now.
-
Um, you do know that if you D/L any of your Steam games, you’ll have Steam running again right? You do know that even if Steam is OFF during startup, as soon as you play any of those games, Steam will turn ON, right? I’m not exactly clear about your issues with Steam when it’s on, but if you’ve not dealt with those, then it’ll be there again as soon as Steam turns on again.
It may not be a big deal now that you’ve found a workaround, but if you set foot outside this “safety circle,” it may be a big deal again.
