Too bad this venerable sim-lite engine still only supports unmappable single controllers.Yes.it is. If I could just get the throttle axis to show instead of the precision slider I'd be a happy camper because the twist rudder on the X-52 does indeed work with it.
And you can even reverse the collective.I played MedEvac Vietnam with X52 controller and rudder pedals. For axis remapping i used ppjoy and it works great.- 10/29/09 07:55 PM Re: Review: Budget Sims - Vol 1: Apache Air Assault / Apache Longbow AssaultJoined: Nov 2004Posts: 177MemberMemberJoined: Nov 2004Posts: 177.

Is this the same game?(ABout a 3rd of the way down) Its called Operation Air Assault 2. No Apache in the title but its an Apache game. This looks to be the same. Well if it is, ebay has a bunch of them new and it looks to be in good packaging.If it is the same game then good ol' Gogamer has them for 8 bucks!How can you say it's the same game?
It doesn't even look like the same game. Don't give people false info to waste 8 bucks. Operation Air Assault 2 is a Helicopter Sim game, developed by InterActive Vision Games and published by Nobilis, which was released in Europe in 2004. Apache Longbow Assault is from Activision Value.

Longbow has a 'transparent' cockpit.
Anyone has been able to fix that?I have the same issue, I have GF8800GTS 320MB on board (tried 190.62 and 191.07 drivers), on previous Radeon 9800 Pro few years back it worked ok. Are all new NVIDIA cards owners have the same problem?For me this game without cockpit view is unplayable, so if anyone have some advice please share it.- 11/08/09 11:33 PM Re: Review: Budget Sims - Vol 1: Apache Air Assault / Apache Longbow AssaultJoined: Jan 2001Posts: 24,314LiferLiferJoined: Jan 2001Posts: 24,314.
Thanks for the tips.I can certainly explore some of those options. The first I think a blanket statement of 'these are sometimes older games and futzing with them will be necessary.' Most games can be run in their native resolution with black bars on the sides.

I'm not planning on installing/patching/tweaking them on XP, Vista, and W7 exhaustively, but from this point forward I'll try to give an idea of which OS I'm using.I'll throw in copy protection comments and graphics and drivers trouble - but again with the wide array of computers and configurations out there it will just be from one perspective.I'm not aiming for an exhaustive review here, just a sim-lite series. Some of these might be $5 crap shoots (ie: I bought the Operation Air Assault 2 game for $8 and found out it was just a repackaged Longbow Assault).BeachAV8R. I guess I couldn't find the feedback thread for this reviewbecause it's nearly 18 months old.However, I just wanted to express my thanks to Beach for this review, which I found whilst looking for more of his Falcon 4 reports.
