Prophet_169th

Yeah I had avoided straffing before, but sometimes when your out of bombs, and out of vihkirs but there is still those few targets left =D Yes I find it odd. I have tried many drivers, updated my bios. Tried many driver config changes, and nothing. With my current settings, I normally get about 35-40 FPS on the runway, and 60-80 FPS in the air. If I strafe..... 10 or less. And most the times its less. I am going to try and re-install DX if thats an option.

Switching on/off may give em some range info, but gives em hell to keep a lock. I have heard that it will trash missles also.

You shouldnt have your jammer on all the time. It will keep that from happening. Though if you only turn it on once he fires, it defeats some of what ECM does. One of the nice things it does, is mask your range. Usually I wait for a spike on RWR or TEWS. And only if I am up high enough to be in danger. Also, you should learn to read the TEWS like the RWR. Its harder since you dont have a signal strength, but you should get a hang of knowing when hes close enough to fire. If the spike appears to be close enough to fire, turn off your jammer, if he had you locked, it will break is lock, and he will have to re-lock you. Since the lock breaks, its a good idea to try and change altitude quickly. That way if his scan cone isnt right, he wont see you and you can get closer, to get a 120 off.

You too eh? Looks like the thread he banned me in. They already deleted it. Wonder why that was..... P.S. Oh and before we get any replies from the S77th, how about you post the body of the thread beforehand.

I have seen the thread, but I fly the MiG a lot, and have yet to experience this problem.

Infantry would be nice, but the chopper is still meant for anti-armor. I would be happy with more armor, and better AI for the armor.

Now that I didnt know SUB17, thanks for the tip.

I have been flying a bit of F4. And MiG29's are always making themselves available as targets. You can definately see a smoke trail when they get close, and then a much larger smoke trail when they get even closer =)

I have a 6800 GT. I havent seen this bug. On a side not, Ondras since you have a 6800 GT, do you get the problem I do with cannon rounds striking ground and dropping FPS? I dont mean to de-rail this thread, so if you do or not, could you let me know in my thread?

Yeah, but I just wasnt sure if you knew a way around it. Would be nice if it is fixed.

Just to clarify, I think SUB17 means the alt+roll autopilot. Not full auto-pilot =)

If you switch out of A/G mode, and then back, it is ok. At least for me.

down to about 2 fps or lower. Sometimes it compeletly pauses, and of course I end up crashing. Just seems odd to me, I just ran 3DMark05, got a 5200. Just doesnt seem right that I need to turn effects off, to play. But it doesnt seem to be something that will be addressed.

It shouldnt, but I havent tried with an ER, and I have heard that trying this with an ER produces a lock warning. Might have something to do with the slaving of the missle to the radar? Not sure, since its not supposed to work that way anyways.

If you can add them like structures, I would bet you could burn them.

Real AA guns would be nice =) Love seeing the wall of flak in F4, would look very impressive in LOMAC.

Recently a US Border Patrol helicopter was downed by detainee's thrown rocks. Maybe if the town is occupied by the enemy, you can have civilians throwing rocks =D

LOL!, I would think jet was would be a distant thing in any sim. But would be a very nice touch, especially if they include rear aspect missles.

Uh, it wasnt my flaps, it was the SU25T taxi'ing in front of me.

I was in a server earlier today. All SU25T. I could see the flaps deployed.

Yes, thanks for the update Wags!!!

Yup, we have tested this many times. I have made tracks at EDs request. The only missle we didnt test was an ER. Most of the time though, its hard to get close enough to find someone HMTD to use this bug.

But using guns mode produces lock warning. In HMTD mode, if you lock EOS without radar on, then turn Radar ON, no lock warning is given.

Yes, much teasing from them on the patch. Now nothing.

I have a squad-mate with a X800, no issues. Is this an nVidia issue?
