SUPER HORNET - GOOD GAME
Good Game although hard to learn how to play - use the manuals to learn how to pilot the plane. Not 100% stable on my system, graphical glitches in the game menus. (WinXP SP3, ATI Radeon 4870, Intel Pentium D 3.0 GHz CPU, 4GB RAM). Max Screen Res is only 1024 x 768 which sucks on any modern monitor.

Blast from the past
To all you good people out there who moan that the game does not work - let me assure you t does. It works on Win7, Win 8.1 - that is what I have tested so far, but I am pretty sure it will work on Win 8.1 and presumably on Win 10 either. First of all it is an advanced flight simulator so it requires a bit - or actually quite a lot - of technical savvy to learn the ropes to fly a Hornet so you should be at least prior to that able to use compatibility mode, set the game .exe file to run in compatibility mode with Win98, disable Display Scaling On High DPI Settings. After that it would be good to know that in a serious flight sim it is at least recommended to use HOTAS and not just a mouse - otherwise a fully interactive virtual Hornet cockpit here will be from clunky to unresponsive here rendering the game unplayable indeed, but only due to a player's inability to build an interface with the game. So if you are after a a sci-fi type of an arcade shooter with no science and lots of fiction I suggest you chose 'Simpleplanes" where even the name is simple. Anyway, great addition of a game hardly available this days anywhere else. You should only perhaps consider adding F-18 Korea/ Precision Strike Fighter and Jane's F/A-18 Hornet so all the bad people out there who are really after a truly rewarding sim which requires seriously learning the ropes have all what's best about simulating high tech modern naval aviation in one easily accessible place like here.

Yes, it works with Windows 10.
Great entry from the end of the golden age of flight sims. After some trial and error, I figured out how to get it to run on Win10: 1) Disable all Windows compatibility settings that appear to be set by GOG (F18.exe and the launcher shortcut) 2) Download DXWnd and use it to browse to and launch F18.exe (under the video tab, select 16 bit) Works perfectly for me... very stable.

Yay, it works!
Worked in Windows 10 for me. Definitely has some issues, but didn't seem to have trouble running after changing the game to run full screen from the separate preferences application "Super Hornet Preferences". Installer (couldn't do through Galaxy, which was an annoyance - a warning of potential issues/incompatibility would be preferred) already seems to configure the shortcut to run in Windows XP SP2 compatability mode and run as administrator. Game definitely has issues if an attempt is made to switch to the desktop / another application, but the game itself is playable. As for the game itself, I'm very pleased. This is the flight simulator I remember, feels great.

Awesome Game
This game is AWESOME, Very great graphics for the time, very great controls, Very detailed, I LOVE IT. One letdown is the menu will flash some times when selecting things, and when you start a game, it will flash as well, but it stops.
