Nice shots and another great skin! May I ask as to why you switched to 33s?

Yes that is the case! And its the best advice so far. An average one will lie down and die for you when you point and click your mav, as you are used to, if thats what you want.

Well I dont think gettting rid of the client thing completely is such a good thing - you need to be able to set server missions up without ai interfering. But it would be nice to have some sort of AI 'stand in' to make up numbers in an online coop mission (if there are less than X players present).

I have mods but I had the problem before them Also I had the problem before 1.11

Best way to beat tungs is with Vikhrs. They dont fire on those.

'I'd like lo-mac to always run at *least* 25fps, or more, with all details to max. Somehow it seems that many peeps are getting 120fps ingame or more in lo-mac, hows that possible?' By not running it at max? When the mud starts to fly, the air gets busy, and the weather is awful, your going to want to make compromises there.

Have you ever watched a shilka go surface to surface in lomac? Is scary! Not sure if tonguesuckers can do it in LO.

LOL Great mod man! And who is this sweetie you speak of :tongue:

Do you have cockpit reflections installed/on?

I had this and found your other thread. I installed the .tga and it fixed all the stars and little details like teeth on migs, and SOME of the numbers, eg in one su-33 paintjob slot it is back, but in an other its gone with those weird stripes in there.(same w/ su27).

I have that card, and with either stock NVidia drivers or DNA series i've never seen that.

Nice work, there are bugs in there I never knew existed.

I have found all of Toms mission packs to be suicidal/impossible - Im glad its not just me :D Was starting to think I was useless. They are great missions though - so I experimented with putting more freindly planes in (Dogfight pack missions) as clients for MP fun to make it easier, havent played them yet though. I cannot do the first mission in this one - by the time I have sorted the 1st 2 bandits the tornado shoots a boat and its game over.

IRL sam systems are linked to a wide network of radars, so that when a SAM turns on it is when the A/C is right inside it's WEZ. Sadly it is not modelled, although it is written about in the 1.1 manual as if it is. 'The other game' models it quite well.

YAY! :icon_jook

Imagine dropping a fist sized rock down a well and hoping to crush the egg thats lying at the bottom somewhere.

I have often wondered if you need to fly rock steady, or point the bore of the missile at the target to get high pk at shorter ranges, or if its simply chance. I favour the bore-line theory, with a bit of luck thrown in. You can get 100% hits from max range, so they always settle, and as you get nearer the pK drops off, as they have less time to adjust. Generally if the motor burns out it will always hit.

Thx. I just found this which tells me that in fact the 33 does have flaps, perhaps hinting that the 27 dosent if I am reading it correctly. But I trust very little off the net :P http://aeroweb.lucia.it/~junap95/fighters/su33.htm In fact, it lists the Kh-31 as armement and im sure it cant really deploy those in RL

No apparently not - in fact apparently Su-33s dont have flaps. The have 'Flaperons' whatever they are.

You need to declassify the campaign, save, reclassify, save. Then it will be set to the settings in your options.

Nope, no indicator, make note of your launch range, and experience will do the rest (i think it goes active @ 15km) For any active missile, crank out to the side maintaining lock, watch your RWR, when it resets, the missile is active. Wait unitl it is nearly all lit up again and pull up and in toward the bandit, tapping chaff. make sure you do it for long enough. neither russian plane can do that. TWS mode can track many targets but not engage like the f15 TWS.

I have exaclty the same problem, currently 1/3 of chat messages show. It happened after my config.lua dissapeared as you described (i think it happens after certain online crashes). I have not been able to resolve it, although I now do as Wolverine suggested in this thread... http://forum.lockon.ru/showthread.php?t=11345 and turn the comms window on and off a few times. It dosent cure it, but it does help a bit. Happens on any server., and it is not related to turning off kill messages. ED help please ?

Awesome, thanks for sharing the experience with us.

This has been posted before but what you need to do is use th 1.11 uninstaller to roll back to 1.02, watch the tracks, then re-apply the patch. The uninstaller was configured tis way for this very reason. So take the time to do that, or take the time to make a track yourself, or make an AVI version for the community.

Yes and no. The numbers and stars are back for SU27, the stars are back for all russian fighters, BUT the numbers for the 33 are still porked :rolleyes: I can live with it:
