Falcon 4 Allied Force

**Hawkeye** · 01-03-2011, 06:14 PM

I had this game for over 10 years flew it once and gave up - now I consider it the best 'SIM' out there.

I restarted with Open Falcon and learned alot in 50 hours of simming - then support left for it - Now I fly FA4AF on:

I have 50+ hours and have started a campaign finally - they have some advanced training there and a fairly active crew along with a grounpounder crew (LOL) who get on BFBC2 - I dont play that; I like Arma2 and America's Army; in Arma2 you can fly helos (I dont care for Op Arrowhead)), and they say Arma1 is even better...

Check it out !

~S~ Hawkeye,

The website for the 388th looks pretty nice. Is this virtual unit flying a newer version of Falcon and if so, what is it ? Can you fly an A-10 and still be apart of the 388th ?

Hawkeye, I still have my old version of Falcon 4.0. I installed it and tried to fly it using Vista's Win98 emulation. Not good; keyboard only, no joystick and pedals worked with it. Is there an upgrade or something like a patch I can get to make it run properly again? I'm an old pro (was) at it for many years and still have the first floppy disk version 1.0 from Spectrum Holobyte, Falcon AT, Falcon 3.0 AOTK and Falcon Gold.
It'd be cool to fly her again.

I also loved Falcon but stopped with the Falcon Gold. The combat tutorial "Art of the Kill" which came with the game was superb, but I have never been able to replay it on modern systems. It uses .fvf video files which don't seem to be compatible with any video player I have found. Has anybody been able to get AOTK running?

aye! I was trying to get into F4 scene as everybody were saying how awesome it is, but the lack of modern features (6dof TIR and high resolution 3D cockpit) turned me away. But it was good for practicing avionics and systems.
