  1. Is there a release date for Black Shark? No?! Maybe 2008??? Pathetic!!!

     

     

    *sigh*...some people. I once wondered how it could take game developers so long to put out a game (especially the good ones). Then I joined a development team myself...and I've learned that there is SO MUCH going on in development that the average player never even THINKS about...

     

    I definately have a new-found respect for the challenges and difficulties developers face. Unfortunately some others appear to lack understanding and/or perspective.

  2. Regarding a flyable Apache in "Black Shark", sorry, but not a chance. The team already has their hands full with the Ka-50 and including an Apache at the level of detail as the Ka-50 would add at least another year to the project. Will the Apache be flyable in a later Eagle product? Magic 8-ball says: Quite Possible.

     

     

    Ha Ha...LO 1.3 Flaming Trees, a possibility:D

     

    Don't get me wrong though, I cannot wait and will be quite content to fly the Shark!

  3. if you are using Vista, you can kiss your hardware audio acceleration goodbye; Microsoft ditched hardware audio support to reduce the frequency of fatal system errors caused by audio drivers/codecs.

     

    Look for Creative's 'ALchemy' project, based on OpenAL. The goal is to emulate hardware support through software.

  4. GunSlinger, one thing you may notice from gundelgauk's post (you may already know this, but I'll say it anyway): you can combine your profile settings with in-game input settings. If a key/axis is not mapped in the X52 profile, the map will default to the in-game designated input. Most of what he mentioned here regarding the trim knobs and mouse stick I implemented similarly with my X45, in conjunction with the saitek profile!

  5. Okay, I've been reading through this thread and others, and read many reviews regarding the X52, X52 Pro, Saitek Pro Pedals, CH Fighterstick, CH Throttle, and CH Pro Pedals, and have a couple of questions regarding them. Mainly for those who have used both:

     

    How does the resistance of the X52 stick compare to the CH Fighterstick?

     

    I read about the fighterstick having 'dual trim' controls on the base...are there three wheels? One for pitch, one for yaw, and one for throttle? If so, is the throttle wheel reprogrammable?

     

    How does the resistance of the X52 throttle compare to the CH throttle?

     

    I read about the CH pedals being 'light to the touch' and having little resistance. How does it compare to the Saitek rudders with its adjustable tension?

     

    Finally, I read in an old thread on here that LOMAC does not support rudder toe brakes. Is this true? If LOMAC does indeed support toe brakes, does it support differential braking?

     

    Thanks much!

  6. try running process affinity to a single CPU / core whatever

     

    dont ask me how. just heard others with dual cpu / core have some problems ... just surgestion.

     

    Under Task Manager --> Processes, find Lockon.exe (lock on MUST be running, so you'd alt-tab to the desktop to do this). Right-click lockon.exe (I THINK that's the name), click on 'affinity', and clear the check for CPU1 (CPU0 would still be checked). Now running the program single-core...whether it retains this setting for the next time you run the program, I'm not too sure (it didn't for my Saitek Profile software).

  7. can't help much on the avoiding missiles...still practicing that myself...

     

    ...regarding the USE of missiles, what is your missile effectiveness slider set at? anything other than 50 or 100 is pretty shaky...read that here on the board, and also experienced it first hand.
