Haven't been flying for quite a while, but without my Jetseat i am afraid I won't. Quite the shame that we have to deal with this kind of stuff.

The parts where this sim really shines in, will not deliver it's full potential if we can't find targets. Although many sorties IRL went down with many flight hours and no enemy contact at all, this is not the kind of occupation anybody would like to spend their free time with, in a multiplayer combat enviroument. Endless flying of spotting nothing is also not how the game is advertised.

As it's a 3rd party product, I don't think this will be an option.

Use MW50 only when absolutely necessary and only if you reached operating temperature (around 90° Oil and water) and you will be fine for the most part. This way you can fly at full throttle until the tank is empty, in most cases. Yes, it means to renounce 300 horsepowers for 99% of the time, too which you should have access for around 30 minutes of flight, according to all manuals. Sadly we already waited more than 2 years for a fix, so don't hold your breath, as it is apparently not significant enough to be looked at.

Thanks for the info!

i could imagine that the F8 gets added later, like the clipped wing spitfire.

This doesn't seem to on their TODO list.

The technology should be similar but the amount of light being refracted is significantly lager. I hope i'm wrong but i guessing performance isn't there yet, to handle this.

I am :megalol:

Well, I'm going to be that guy: How are things going to be on the infamous "cockpit-bar"-issue? I've noticed that the screen shots so far didn't show this area. (going tinfoil hat mode) To avoid a discussion about it maybe?

Well it means we get an A8. However a G6 would be more appropriate, as the contemporary 109.

Smoke effect plus muzzle flash is over done anyway, and needs to be adjusted. it's an issue, since the new lighting system got released.

WW2 radar units has been requested a lot of times and not an single response so far. Functionality doesn't have to been that different from the modern one. Adjustments on detection range / altitude and correct radio calls can be added later. (It's not like much effort has been done in that area anyway) That would give the game so much more than a other T80 disguised as a WW2 tank. Plus the broken path finding (if existing at all?) on the Normandy map would not even matter.

Unless you dogfight in it at 10 km.

I understand and agree with your reasoning.

As the Spitfire speed thing is quite well known by now, is restricting bomb usage on in an option?

Oh, there is the explanation on why i couldn't outrun a Spit, a week or something ago. Wow

I landed the 190 multiple times like this. Quite the challenge :joystick:

I've noticed this in single player, when taking the very first shot. after that it's fine. (No VR user)

Something like flammig cliffs for WW2 to create a good basis to grow from would be neat. However, releasing other versions of the same aircraft with minor differences as addons, is what i think would work best. Model a G14 / G10 based upon the K4 and the data they probably gathered on these for making the K. Then sell each for lets say 10 to 20 bucks? Quick source of income, from my perspective of course. This way we probably would see bugfixes for the k4, but now i'm going off topic.

This thread is a Deja vue: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=158033 IMHO G14 and/or G10 should be added as addons for the K4 module. Earlier models could be warped up in their own module.

Is that "only" coding / modeling the thing or the entire development process of gathering info, understanding it, create it, testing and so on?

Wasn't there something about "maps that fit the current plane set"? Considering that i'd stay with version that fit into 43 - until 45. Here a related Discussion about this https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=158033

@Coyote So what will it be? 1.42 ata or 1.56 ata version?

Rough comparison to the D9: Obviously slower, slightly better role-rate, slightly worse turn rate. Against the P51 it will struggle immensely in a 1 v 1 at co alt. Against the Spit you should use superior energy retention to zoom away. From a brief look at the data presented at WW2 aircraft performance site, the A8 has a bout 20 mph better top speed that the MkIX. Don't quote me on that just now. So in conclustion you never should engage without a significant energy advantage against both of these aircraft. Performing well in it will be quite the challenge. :joystick:
