Thank ya seriously Rav! The very first book I ever read when I was 8 yrs old was "The Red Barron, The Biography of Manfred Von Richthofen", FASCINATING, I became an aviation artist because of it and have aviation murals at 2 US Airforce base's because of it as well as sold a painting of Rare Bear (the 500 mph Bearcat air racer) to it's crew chief. A friend gave me the original Red Baron back in '97 and I fell absolutely in love with it. I played the hell out of that game, I had different pilots for each airforce and battlefront with hundreds of kills each. Then I found Red Baron 2 and played the hell out of it even more so! Didn't have internet I could play on, just the pc game but it was absolutely fascinating. Then RB3D but didn't have the ill fated Voodoo graphics card which was Sierras demise, that was a major blow, but still played the hell out of it. Then couldn't load it with XP just when il2 came out. I love il2, I've played it just as hard as a ground attack pilot since i love the il2 plane itself and am the ground attack champ at a few well populated sites but my first love is still RB! The WW1 scenario is still my favorite, I'm an ultra-light pilot and slow and extremely maneuverable is my heart. Heck it's late, got to crash, but again thanks for the vision you found with the biplanes and older planes at il2 to bring about the WW1 Guts and Glory server, any help you need just let me know!!!

Thanks Jams We need more guys with your enthusiasm. I glad to see you in there always a fun time. Much of the credit need to go to JTFM who inspired me with his bloody April campaign and great skins. also Triple AAA who did so top work with his flyboys skins . All I did was put is all in a pot a stir so to speak.I saw the potential and let her lose after asking both of then if they would mind if I put it int action also the net cache folder was a very important touch for the skin loads ect thanks goes to Gussie and the mega mission guys for testing this goodies out . We used to trade skins and net cache bmps in the old days but those guys tested out a good harvest system . but ultimately its guys like you that will make it grow. I'm just glad we finally have some guys to fly around in and I am really enjoying the hot and heavy dog fights. Please post around and spread the word .  Hope to see ya in there later. PS . Jam feel free to post some of your art work here. Id really like to see it. we have an show us your work boared.  RaVe |
