  1. I have really enjoyed the mission that 169 have had on. AWACS is not for noobs necessarily. It changes the dynamic of the battle, it brings in different tactical issues, it was really refreshing to play with it there now it has been fixed in the last patch. So I err... 'like it both ways', err, so to speak ;)
  2. I did this recently (I used the 'medium' folder and copied it, renamed the copy to replace the 'high' folder). Its a great workaround, ive not had any issues - however, if a mission designer selects a building as a target which is already on the map (ie not a static placed in the editor), it might not show up - but as long as the editors know this its fine.
  3. So do I. I think maybe a program is running which is becoming the 'active' window. It happens to me when a norton message pops up, I have to alt-tab back to Lockon again. Does it affect your mouse clicks?
  4. Sorry if my post upset you. It would be a nice feature, but not just landing anywhere you want surely? Im talking with offline vs AI play in mind here - landing on any old road and rearming is daft to me. Landing on a specific section would be cool.
  5. You have to admit though, its bloody stupid.
  6. I dont know, I didnt have to install anything other than the application itself :S
  7. Ok, it will be the latest version - and that should be fine
  8. You shouldnt have to install that with LMR. Are you sure it asked you to do that?
  9. Is that the case now? I can connect ok :confused: Excellent, you could be a politician :p
  10. AFM for weapons is planned for BS I am led to believe
  11. Yeah it goes with AFM. Anyone tried firing (eg) one Kh-58, then one Kh-25MPU? They both come off the same wing! :O is this a bug/oversight or feature? Can real pilots chose the side it will come off?
  12. I have some ok-ish ones ill finish them and you can have em. If you dont see it in this thread remind me!
  13. What I do is make the mission and save 2 copies; one master one which I leave as .mis for editing -> from this the .lmr, then obvously that is used to generate the random variations.
  14. Change the payload for that mission if it irks you :) And turn easy radar off it does more harm than good!
  15. http://forum.lockon.ru/showthread.php?t=11699 I use it - its awesome
  16. One for 'leisure' account (from VVank's site http://vv.0t8.net/ ) & a 'rude' one for work account :D
  17. I know you've put a lot of effort in this to make it realistic - looking forward to playing it!
  18. This article has the data you are talking about. However they are not RL data, they are as modelled in lock-on. http://www.simhq.com/_air/air_097a.html

  20. Bug no.3 has also been repeorted, it was caused with the last patch. Dont use GAI with EWR/AWACS or they know where any enemy is immediately.
  21. This seems fun! Do you mean where we live? Because most squads have members from all over.
  22. Yes. The higher you shoot from the higher the probability of a kill, but its easier to be beamed if they are low. So shoot high and race under them to hold the lock. This ties in very well with mig29 characteristics - you can climb and accelerate fantastically well, especially compared to a fully loaded flanker. So if you engage at long range at the same altitude, climb higher than they can, release a GOOD shot (my choice is an ER), then race under them. If they beam while you are still over them lock them up again and you should still be guiding your missile home, since that early it will still be capable of the kill. Also anything they shot at you will be trashed due to your steep dive. If they are still after you then use your 77s for launch and leave, just make sure you support the missile long enough. You have to take good shots with the mig as you are limited in your missile numbers!
