View Rotation Limit Tweak You already know the cockpit view rotation limits can be tweaked. I will show you my setting and some comparison of various settings. To tweak the limits, you edit \Config\View\server.lua . This is my setting. I extended the limits as much as I could. -- Camera angle limits {horizontal angle max, vertical angle min, vertical angle max} CameraAngleLimits = {} CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iSu_27] = {160.0, -76.0, 110.0} CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iSu_33] = {160.0, -79.0, 110.0} CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iSu_25] = {109.0, -70.0, 105.0} CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iSu_39] = {116.0, -85.0, 110.0}　　<--Su-25T CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iMiG_29] = {160.0, -80.0, 110.0} CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iMiG_29K] = {140.0, -65.0, 90.0} CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iA_10] = {160.0, -72.0, 110.0} CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iF_15] = {160.0, -81.0, 110.0} You don't want to lower the 'vertical angle min' beyond my setting, or you will see the unfinished portion of the cockpit. In A-10, you will see the chaff and flare counters more easily by extending the limits. This is an example of the beauties of the tweak. (The counters have a mixed-up bug. The chaff counter shows how many flares are left and vice versa with the flare counter.) For Su-27, Su-33, MiG-29, A-10 and F-15, you can set the 'horizontal angle max' according to your preference. See this picture for the comparison. I recommend 150 to 160 for realistic feel. And for movie making, full backward view might be interesting. Your setting is only effective on single player play. On multiplayer play, the hosts will force you to use their settings, so that everybody will play in the equal condition. I also list the factory default values for your convenience. CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iSu_27] = {140.0, -75.0, 90.0} CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iSu_33] = {140.0, -75.0, 90.0} CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iSu_25] = {95.0, -65.0, 90.0} CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iSu_39] = {110.0, -80.0, 90.0} CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iMiG_29] = {140.0, -75.0, 90.0} CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iMiG_29K] = {140.0, -65.0, 90.0} CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iA_10] = {140.0, -65.0, 90.0} CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iF_15] = {140.0, -80.0, 90.0} Russian Seat Fix After you extend the horizontal view limit of the Russian aircraft, you will see the weird look of the headrest. I made a mod to fix it. 1.1 Cockpit Reflection + Russian Seat Mod You can see the larger pic of the new seat. You will see sometimes the brightness difference between the right and left half of the headrest. That is because of how the texture mapped and something I can not handle. Enjoy!

Что значит "Включить репутацию"? И что означает зеленый квадратик и цифра "2" рядом? Или ткните носом, где описано. В FAQ'е вроде ничего не нашел.

Well I missed the first day or so of the download being available, logged onto the site, saw it was available, went through the whole process only to get a Paypal error. Bit odd I thought, tried again. Eventually dropped into the forums to find the post from Wags (not a spokesman for ED remember) regarding paypal issues. So the criticism of the lack of updates on the website stands. Let's be clear, anyone who's registered on these forums is a flight sim nut, a rare breed. And I'm sure that almost without exception we all appreciate what ED have accomplished so far and are eager for them to continue producing more and ever better products (after all, very few others are even trying). This means that any whining is being done by people who don't want to be whining, who HAVE got better things to do with their time and who just want to get this game installed and get flying (so we can start complaining about the modelling of missiles apparently *sigh* ;)). If you're one of the few (?) who already have the game perhaps there's no need to slap down those who haven't and are getting impatient. Certainly calling us names and making us feel stupid for voicing our concerns helps noone. Just let the threads run their course. And if you're from ED and can do HTML (or whatever the website is done in) then perhaps the odd news update wouldn't go amiss. Just my tuppence worth.

"Включить репутацию" - это, Rik, совершенно дурацкий перевод не менее странного выражения "rep power" (в английском варианте форума). Означает оно вес твоего голоса когда ты захочешь кому-либо репутацию изменить. на англиском можно почитать сдесь - http://nokiafree.org/forums/showthread.php?p=342287

Да разные инженеры и летчики, один зараза прилетал десять вылетов с остановленным двигателем, а не проверишь его технику пилотирования спарка Л-39, пока по расказам, ведущего 2 пары не сделали вывод,ногу на выводе дает, один пример и другой, инженер по вооружению перед вылетом подходит и говорит:"Запрещаю, вылет с бомбовым и ракетным вооружением." На вопрос а почему, говорит, что невозможно с Су-25 применить в одном вылете и бомбу и ракету. На предложение пари, где ставкой был рапорт с просьбой об отстранении от должности, отказался, но и разрешения на вылет не дал, вот такие рекомендации давали, хорошо полковник Руцкой рядом оказался, после его монолога о родственниках инженера, где он доходчиво рассказал, кем они были, я попросил законспектировать его речь. Александр мудро заметил, что случай представится и я узнаю тоже в красках о своих, слово сдержал , через 2 недели, когда отработал рядом с постом.

An effective Vikhrs attack require you, as Whisper states, to ripple fire the missiles. Here's a quick demo track of what we mean: Walking the Line. Sorry no voiceover, etc but you should be able to get the idea. Note that I gain speed gradually in the dive and actually end up overspeeding a bit but that allows me to evade the Shilka's return fire. Assuming this plays back correctly, you'll notice that I actually fire and guide 5 missles but #3 (I think) misses. ThomasDWeiss, This track has the convoy protected by an accompanying Osa and Shilka in case you'd like to take a peek. Not sure if you were hoping for more than 4 kills in a pass with your no-laser-cooling request. This particular pass had the potential for 5 kills, though one missed. Rich

Thanks for the comments and the reputations, people! :smile: I'm very glad you liked it. Ruggbutt found there is a mixed-up bug on the counters. He reported it in the 'Bug List' thread.

thanks Dedcat. it was me that was getting dropped and the wierd thing is everything else seemed like a really stable connection and very solid game. i was getting zero warping during the time i was playing and once i had been dropped it reconnected first time everytime with no other apparent problems.

Not sure if any of those would work. Just seems odd that there is no way for a company to do e-commerce these days. I thought it had caught on everywhere, not just US. It appears though, that most of these places charge quite a bit if you dont have a US bank account. Maybe this is the reason ED hasnt chosen a service yet, they are all just too expensive for the level of business they will do. Best bet, may be just to wait for the box.

Considering the size of your shadow in the second pic, its not all that close. They are hard to see, but then again, they are IRL also. Just think, there is less foliage here. Imagine trying to spot one of those things in the bushes =)

All we are asking for is infomation........ I understand that this thread is not a place to complain, just a honest plea for any info available. If we have to wait for the CD version, fine, we will wait. This not knowing causes us to have to check every day to see if FC is available. Every day there is more speculation, frustration and critisisms which achieves nothing, and no real infomation. I did read a post saying you will not be using verisign, but cannot find it now. Are you looking for other ways of direct payment ? If so, I wish you luck and apoligise for not being able to directly help. If you were to post a sticky saying "we are looking for other methods", others in the community may be in this field and be able to assist. The small community is allready split in two, with the two versions, and we are hurting. Much as you are hurting due to lack of sales. Please, lets work together. Remember ED..we WILL support you to the best of our abillity, all we ask is a little "up to date" info. Thanks RASTUS :)

Basically, every time something new is done, things change. The missiles were changed, so now they behave quite differently than they used to. In some cases they're better, in some they're worse. Work continues ;)

Продолжаем с ынтересом наблюдать... :D

Народ. Су-25К (экспортный) не секретный. Ищите знакомых из Восточной Европы. У них правда вся документация на их языке. Но зато и РЛЭ, и РБП и методички, и техописание (полное) можно достать ... ;)
