Each time you log in to the BBS, you will notice some threads have an "open" envelope and a down-arrow symbol. These are threads which contain new messages since you last logged on, and clicking the down-arrow will take you to the first unread post in that thread. The only problem I find is if you spend a long time either eading a thread or typing a message, your connection "times out" and any remain unread threads will be marked as read.... otherwise it works pretty well in cutting out messages you have already read...
GOD mode- Being a WW flyer, er target..., I was wondering how I set my joystick buttons to Dx output. I have a full CH setup, FX stick with Pro throttle and Pro Rudder, and use the basic keystrokes programmed thru Speedkeys for my output now.
Basically, to use the God mode you need to set up three buttons on your joystick as DX buttons (in Speedkeys), and use AH keymapping to set them for normal use - fire, bomb, etc. Then, when you hit F5, the buttons will work in the God mode... otherwise they will work as normal. Hope that makes sense. I think there is a better explanation in how to move, etc, in the Special Events Forum.
