I'm afraid U won't find this program pal...very sorry, as far as I know it's impossible to cause damage to scenery while fying fs2004.
what I've tried is to link the weapons (scenery and textures) that come within cfs2 aircrafts and create a full loaded fs2004 arcraft, even that no gun really works, would be great to see some a/c fully loaded or some tanks ejected when talkin about fighters...no success at all 

sorry to give U such bad news...

cya!

FS2004 is a civil simulator. If you want a modern combat sim, go get Strike Fighters

you hit it on the button foo fighter, i think most of us have the combat sims and they are good in there own aspect but the one thing missing in fs9 is that extra thrill of the ability to do actual military drills in aircraft,  most fighters in the real world that are sent up in the air are not unarmed so why have them unarmed in fs9?... in the combat sims, to me at least, they are not as realistic as the flight simulator series and are often under exagerated or sometimes over exagerated.  flight simulator has alot, but is still missing that "something" that could put it over the edge.

1000% agreed, most of the modern combat type style flight sims have crappy graphics or are not even worth buying into.

im well aware of the effects but like i stated they are really not that great and they do no actual damage, the effects are not worth it if your trying to do multiplayer squad drills, and they are just that.. "effects".. and nothing more.

you couldnt have said it better, yes it is a civil simulator, but there is that "lack" that erks most of us, they need to come out with a addon for this or something cause i belive alot of people agree on this subject that the combat sims dont do it justice.

The whole world is on CFS2, despite it's limitations, it can be modded with FS2000 Scenery, Terrain mesh and addon scenery of good quality.

I too, would like to see a Blended Flight Sim, where I could be a Sky Pirate (Crimson Skies), A Defender (virtual air force Combat Sim Style), or a happless victim of terrorism (FS2004 virtual airline). Add to that a stunning ground simulator complete with Elected and self declared dictators, Wanna-be's, Vigilantes, Cults, and an observer mode where you are just a plain citizen watching it all happen on the boob tube, reporters, news crews, medics..............

We could declare wars and get very nasty with each other, (as real as it gets!  ), Form alliances and protect our borders.

In fact, it would be great, maybe all the soldiers on the planet could be issued a stonking great killer PC, and we could fight it out from the comfort of an air conditioned lounge instead of the horrors of mud and blood.

But maybe they'd get bored.........

oops   

then get LOMAC

This is all we cfs2 fans have been praying for..but MS is playing deaf on us.
i agree with the fact that fs9 is a civil sim, well cfs4 should be fs9 with guns, then you´ll have the cvil and the military sim apart from each other, but the same core game at the end.
Bottom line is, the next cfs series will be designed after cfs3, ,so all the beauty and OH!´s and Ah!´s of fs9 will not be there, ,sad to say but it is the truth.
That´s what i like of cfs2, ,the capacity to go anywhere in this world, even when you don´t want to make any harm,  you can fly a fully loaded plane and KNOW that those hanging under your wings aren´t dummies.
Keep fs9  a civil sim, give us a fs9 military version.....please!!

I'm sorry to say
I dont hold much hope that you will be able to get this working,  for several reasons.
I'm sure it could be done but there is a lot of high level programming that would have to be done.
Considering that you have stated you are not a programmer, it would take you quite some time to develop the skills needed. Along with that you would have to get right into the machine code and I'll bet that Microsoft would have something to say about it.

The only hope I see would be FSUPIC kind of add-on, something using the collision detection and aircraft damage effects, but it would only work air to air at best and wouldnt come close to what I think you want.

Plug away while your at it we could see it happen somewhere.  People have been talking about a virtual battle field for a good 15 years now.  A place modeled on the real worls where land sea and Air forces share the same world and interact.  It is coming and the company that can get it on the market will be someting to buy stock in for sure.  All the peices are in place, someon just needs to put it all into one box so it works.

Add- on some virtual reality helmets ( and a good chair that you wont fall out of) and fights on!

Sounds like a great idea.
You could fly the presidents airplane with fighter support. And have a terrorist attempt to get to the president. Then take off in your escort fighter and take out the attacker. Or take out that plane that took out the civilian aircraft.

But of course if MS did it it would run at 12fps

Well.......i think we cfs-series-fans have some responsability on this. We wanted "multiple and controllable gunners" we wanted this we wanted that and forgot that at the end this is a fligth sim..for simulated pilots no gunners. if you find boring flying a mission on a b17 as a pilot...then go for another game, you are suposed to be a pilot.Another reason is microsofts Xbox, MS wants in the future that all it´s games to be used only by this toy, the cfs series (i guess) format is not suitable for this. So they changed it.
Bottom line......fs9 IS a great simulator....very adictive.....lots of eye candy, just like fs8 when it cmae out....the cfs series (for me) were always a version of this sims but with guns.The cards have been dealt, this the deck we have and we have to play with it.
