Title: Let me Introduce Myself.... Post by: TX-CUDA on December 02, 2013, 08:29:13 pm ....hey Ya'll, just wanted to get back on here and {re} introduce myself. Have seen some of Ya'll on Facebook and there are many new faces I am not familiar with. I am know here as TX-Cuda..."Galveston FPScheats" on FB, and just plain old Rocky to those that know me. Have been around here since dirt...haven't flown any sims since forever, and really need to blow the dust off the joystick here on the desk and get back into it.
Used to work for GTE/Verizon and retired after 33yrs. Just couldn't take it any more when the operations were being run from New Jersey and not Texas when Verizon took over GTE. The money was right so now live the life of fishing whenever I want to...wherever I want to...and chasing tail. My son Eric that some of you met back years ago when we hit the CAF Airshow at Ellington in Houston is now 20yrs old! Sadly, he is a "console kiddie"....but may come around one of these days. Heck, that was when it was still called "The Confederate Airforce"!! .....at any rate, glad to hook back up with the group, and am looking forward to doing some flying again. The box here ought to handle any of the new sims I hope. i7 975 Extreme with twin Nvidea GTX 680's. Built it a few years ago, but is holding up well with the new vid cards added recently. Glad to be back! TX-Cuda Black 8 Title: Re: Let me Introduce Myself.... Post by: GOZR on December 04, 2013, 09:10:05 pm :)

A lot of TX action has been happening on our FaceBook group but I think we'll bring more of it back over here to the site to keep everyone up to date who isn't a FaceBook zombie! A couple of us have the early access IL2:Battle of Stalingrad, I think it's going to be a lot like the original IL-2. It probably won't directly compete with things like DCS:WWII or even IL-2 Cliffs of Dover as those sims are a bit more of the "study sim" variety when it comes to complexity of systems...IL-2:BOS will be an evolution of the things we had in original IL-2, and I think that's great in a lot of ways! The amount of fun we had in original IL-2 was pretty amazing, and I sense it happening again! Title: Re: Let me Introduce Myself.... Post by: TX-Rahman on December 15, 2013, 02:07:29 pm Wow! Great to see you guys.. Zen! BrawwwkkkkK! Cuda, & Rex! Eco & GOZR, Salute to you all Gents!
I stopped using the fighter pit to sit in over a year ago when I gave the kids my larger room. Tried to set it up in the little room but it was just too tight with all the music gear I have and all. I sit at a desk again. Still use all my flying sticks, yokes, and pedals because of FlightSim/Prepar3d. Excited to see everyone, can't wait until SOB is released now! Title: Re: Let me Introduce Myself.... Post by: GOZR on December 16, 2013, 08:18:52 pm Salute all :)
