Encountered this bug many times online. 'spawning bug' on public servers means you have to eject sometimes and then recover as you are stuck in airport view, and is one of the great mysteries of the modern world :) Think it might beto do with departure times not registering correctly. We have had missions that work fine on the 504 server until a small change is made (like moving a ground unit), then it all goes a bit wonky.

have you tried declassifying, saving (with higher graphics on) and starting again?

Crashing into each other and the scenery and shooting each other (and me) with heaters is also annoying. Not complaining though it just means you have to look after 'em! The opposite end of the spectrum is the problem encountered by IL2/PF players where the AI cheats, and the current situation is preferable to that.

But not in the jets

You can resize dds files with irfanview, just open, resize, click half. Then save. It saves as bmp but making a loman package converts it back to dds.

Woah that plane was in the air?

There is a mod for the su-33 in 1.1 I will look for a link...

That happens if you or someone else gets disconnected. If you set up a mission with views enabled, and you get pinged out while loading up (pressing @ will not show scores), you can watch everybody else flying in a straight line even if its through mountains or sea. Never seen it with AI planes though!

The missiles will fly further and more importantly have more energy to maneuver when they get there.

It happens anyway, Ive had settings on med for ages and I got trees on the server. (Ive put it on high now because it seems my rig can cope). There was a guy on the 504 server saying he couldnt lock a mav because of low fps, however he also said it was 15-20 fps which is fine for mavs. :icon_roll

Nice skins =RvE=! Yeah the coloured canopy is a nice touch.

I gave up using it after gettting bored ressurecting my guy. There are some missions (community made) that are just made for you to die in the first 5 times :P, especially since you hardly ever get to eject when hit by a missile any more.

Flight model? :rolleyes: Not too keen on the heli idea? Id rather have a jet but then ive never played a heli sim so im looking forward to trying it out. Might luv it

I like the way you called it a target rather than a building heh! :icon_madu

Its a bit of a bad feature when it turns your radar on without you asking it to! Also if you drop a radar lock and have to switch your radar back on, and slew it around again, it can take a while. But if its a likely feature of the actual jets then fair enough it should stay!

If you lock and lose lock on a hostile in the russian fighters, your scan mode changes - i.e if you locked in radar mode it switches to eos, and vice-versa. :rolleyes: It gets you killed in both situations.

I agree its not only ping related directly. Recently on our 504 server I flew from an airfield on the wing of a guy from our squadron. We both had pings lower than 40 and have flown together ok before, but he was flipping and twisting all over the place it was creepy. I think perhaps it has more to do with the load on the server, so maybe not fix-able :S. (504) Gazehound

Ok, got it. But then if you push your joystick left/up/whatever it will move without there being any input, or less input from the stick.

Isnt that because the sunlight is patchy when the cloud is dense? Its hard to see if its a bug or a feature from the shots. The first pic looks natural, the one of the AK looks bad though.

Su-25 is a hard place to start. :D The su-33 fly now mission is ideal for carrier landing training. But you should be able to nail landings in everything else first.

Nice work, but what exactly is a gimball? Ive heard mention of them in the past but only as reference to a JS addon. It appears as though you want to mount your joystick on a pole and have it come from the floor :S

Normaly I find if I take out a fighters engine with guns, it bugs out level & slowly (about 350kmph). (1.1). That is, provided it has another engine of course!

Once I managed to lock and fire a R-27ER at a friendly from close range, with full LA and no friendly marker on the hud. Also, the bogey appeared as a bandit on my hdd, and had music off. It takes some severe grovelling to pacify people whn you do that to them. Someone mentioned it may have been the angle of approach to the bogey not letting the iff interrogate. Also, I used weapon launch override in a previous plane to launch heaters when I was hit, but I bailed and this was a new plane.
