Undercarriage Problems in 'Replay' (Track!)
Raptorattacker replied to Raptorattacker's topic in Bugs and Problems
@BIGNEWY @NineLine @MotorEAST STILL no fix chaps? Come on, please?!!! Every update I keep hoping, hoping and hoping and this is still not addressed. Basically it makes all three of these WW2 planes (Thunderbolt, Mustang and Mosquito) completely impossible to check after missions, instant actions etc. etc. It also renders them useless for promotional videos for skins etc or even just advertising your product. I am doing my best to remain civil and reasonable but my patience can only last for a year or so... This image is from the 'replay' (Track) files, which is our ONLY way of checking our skill (or lack of it!) after attempting a Mission etc in-game. NONE of these problems are apparent in real-time, only in watching back. This image shows: 1) The front wheel being subterranean and the rear wheel being skewed to a right angle after taxiing to the runway (and straightening out!)... 2)The undercarriage warning light being good and showing NO warning after T/O while... 3)The undercarriage has failed to retract. It's NOT a good look... Rap -

Is this while you are actually DOING the Mission or when you watch it back afterwards?

I'm glad you took it in the right way and didn't think I was being arsey or anything like that. Keep up the good work for sure!! Going to sleep at night with a self-satisfied grin on your face and a happy head, knowing that you've created something that no-one else has is reward enough. Anything else is just a bonus!! Rap

Wow! There's a saying that goes, "Nobody thinks about you as much as you think about yourself". If you take the time to make mods for ANY game then people who use them mostly do it because they think it's a good mod/idea. If the maker expects gratitude and plaudits from every one of these people then I would (respectfully) suggest that the maker is probably in the wrong game. Personally I love making skins, especially for WW2 planes and there have been many downloads of them by people (like, in the hundreds). I actually do them for my own enjoyment and, like @Rudel_chw above, don't really care one way or the other if people use them or not. I merely post them just in case someone can find a use for them. I would just take it easy and maybe re-assess why you actually do these things... Peace Rap

Undercarriage Problems in 'Replay' (Track!)
Raptorattacker replied to Raptorattacker's topic in Bugs and Problems
Sure can @BIGNEWY. The 'meat and potatoes' of all three of the WW2 planes with the upgraded suspension is pretty much in this post. I understand that 'tracks' are not really replays but they are my/our only means of referencing things that we've done/not done during Missions etc and also to make videos from. In my case, often to illustrate custom skins and the like. I have put a couple of tickets in about it and also removed ALL Mods etc, all to no avail. You'll find tracks and videos of the problem here anyway and thanks ever so much for your reply. Here's hoping... Here are tracks of the three offenders on the new Marianas map. If you don't get the 'full experience' then run the track again. I've checked them all twice in-game to make sure and yeah, the problem is still there. The Mustang is particularly entertaining! Apologies for the random taxiing but it was just to show the problem. In-game there were NO bent struts and the undercarriage DID retract, honest!! Mosquito.trkMustang.trkThunderbolt.trk -

reported Undercarriage Problems in 'Replay' (Track!)
Raptorattacker posted a topic in Bugs and Problems
@BIGNEWY @NineLine @MotorEAST Why? Why? WHY? A well documented and commented on and even Ticketed problem STILL persists with the Thunderbolt, the Mustang and the Mosquito's undercarriage problems in Track/Replay. I am trying to video my Thunderbolt (in this instance) to illustrate my custom skin (which I do very often, to show what it's/they are like in-game. I CAN'T)!! This was what my Thbunderbolt looked like after an almost perfect landing on the WW2 Marianas map and taxiing to the parking space... The wheels were sunken into the terrain, the rudder had shaken itself off and the tailwheel was non-existent despite the plane being supported by a 'ghost version' of said component. PLEASE can you get something done about this problem, personally I have spent over a hundred quid on these three planes, only to not be able to see them in their full glory. I have sent many .trk files in about all three and many videos of the same, PLUS several tickets so please don't ask me for any more... Hopefully yours Rap -
Strange issue with landing gear (STILL!)
Raptorattacker replied to Raptorattacker's topic in Bugs and Problems
@MotorEAST @NineLine @BIGNEWY Still ain't been fixed in these last patch(es). Mustang, Mosquito OR Thunderbolt. Any news like a 'to-do-date' or anything??? You'll notice I didn't open up another ticket!! Rap -
Dad joke! By the way, have you seen my 'Wooden Wonder' skin for said Wooden Wonder? It's extremely wooden...

For ANY attention you need to attach files to the complaint otherwise NOTHING will get done. There are problems with the undercarriage of all three of the WW2 modules with the 'enhaced suspension' that have been logged. Let's hope thing gets done about it PLEASE...

One the edge, yeah. Doable, JUST(with the wind in the right direction)!!

Raptorattacker replied to Raptorattacker's topic in Bugs and Problems
No, I agree. HOWEVER, imagine having just got DCS World and wanting to see yourself in your brand new Mustang/Mosquito/Thunderbolt and being faced with THESE results??? It doesn't happen to ANY of the others, WW2 or not. They are ALL paid for modules. They ALL cost money... This has only started happening in the last few months and. as the saying goes, "If you don't tell the barman the beer is off then he won't know because he sells it, he doesn't drink it"...
