Ice, some people probably do try the mission but do anyways not write feedback. Your efforts are appreciated. I try to make some missions myself. Due to the peculatrities of the mission editor (no cop-[aste function!!!) It takes quite a lot of time to create something. Besides, a nice mission needs a good storyboard too :) Lets get more of your creative abilities with missions :) :)

let me try my best russian to translate: Stranntje trolleshbus, pasazhirickie dverie oe nego sleva. How's that.. correctly translated from cyrrillic to european? ;)

Not really a bug, more a request. How difficult could it be for ED to enable the SU-27/SU-33/MiG-29 bomb ripple interval for dumb boms? The buttons are their on the cokpit, one can see them but dont work. Speaking from a programmer-point-of-view my mind is this: All flyables except Su-25/T seem to share some common flightmodel. One can make F-18C flyable in MEInit.xml which proves that all flyables shares for a great deal the same FM. The A-10 is since FC an minor deviation exception on this assumption. Shouldnt it then be quite easily to also enable bomb ripple interval for the SU-27/SU-33/MiG-29?

Really it would be great if it could be included in the follow-on patch. I hate to go mess around in the MEInit.xml. Have ED taken notice of this realistic weapons mod? Do you have contact with anyone at ED? Could you contact with someone to have it included into the coming patch?

Will the 1.2 release be free? If it is payware, how much would it be..?

I hope this mod is merged into the official 1.2 meInit.xml.

I have seen a videoclip where the SU-27 is carrying 3*MER RBK-250's. In the present neither the SU-27 or Su-33 are equiped with MER's. In all probability the MiG-29C and MiG-29A, Su-30 could also carry MER's Could you include those in your future A-10 realism mod too??

BTW the break/gas peddals of my Logitech Wingman Formula Force GP racing wheel works fine as rudders in lo-mac :).

Brother31, i got your latest version of LOTATC( LockOn Tiny Air Traffic Control) V 0.95 - 15/06/2005 but i miss the *export.lua*. It is not in your installation. Could you add it to your website, or include it in your installation, or post it here in this forum please??

I'd love to see the MirageF1 with South African Airforce colors in lo-mac :). Even better would be if ED could disclose how lo-mac fans could create own 3D models to insert into lo-mac as (non)flyables.

Hi everyone. I have read some threads about the fact that skins which gets installed into the Bazar\TempTextures is a a major framerate-killer. The solution is apparenrlty to have all skins and textures be placed into .cdds-files. In loman i saw an option to do it but do not know how to use it. Could someone tell me how to: 1. Put a skins into a CDDS file. 1. Put 1024*1024-skins or, even a 2048*2048 skin into a CDDS file. 2. What is the maximum size of a skin which can be into CDDS? I really LOVE those 2048*2048 skins which are on lomacfiles.com but they really make lo-mac unplayable :(. Any other helpful tips wregarding using skins in lo-mac ill be greatly appreciated.

Yes, in other games this is not happening. A apperent fix: go into tge DirectX Control Panel (or dxdiag.exe from command line) then disable Audio acceleration. The mystic pop + associated FPS slowdowns will disappear.

Thomas, you shoulndt tempt me with those nice 2048-skins on http://www.lomacfiles.com :P. I have to install them, the temptations to have only 2-48-skins are too severe for me ;). Anyways i have removed just abaout all 2048-*2048 skins. Now my lomac runs again very smooth with very high framerates >=45fps over land / city's. Pity that the hires skins cant realy be used :(.

Recently i reinstalled windows and ofcourse lo-mac 1.1 on my computer. A fter starting lo-mac and flying some missions i noticed something amazing.. my framerates were very much higher than before the fresh install. Strange, to say the least. I routinley reinstall windows once a year though, my machine was working fine.. i use it only for programming VisualStudio2003.NET, e-mails and lo-mac. After this fresh install of both windows and lo-mac i started lo-acm and gotten pretty very good framerates. Then i installed all hires 2048x2048 skins (with loman) in lo-mac. Guess what? Framrates dropped from say, 40fps to 5fps or less! I then procedded to remove all these hires skins which resulted in high framerates again. Could this drop in framerates be due to insufficient videomemory in my videocard?? My videocard is a Club3D Geforce 6600 GT 128MB AGP, gfx setings externally at AA 2x, AF 2x and the card is not overclocked. Lo-mac setting running at 1024x960, all details max except water at medium and Heatblur=false. Mirrors = Medium, Cokpit shadows=on. Does any1 have a smiliar experience of fropping framerates with many hires skins installed?

Or, they could add it, plus other worthwile addons (teka teka's?) in an extra file which becomes an optional download / directory on distribution CD.

Specifically for the AGM-65 mavericks, it seems anything below a 80% missile effectiveness in Options, the mavericks ALWAYS misses. I have never seen a Vikhr miss even when the effectivenessslader was at 50%.

Open the MEInit.xml file, then change humancockpit="no" to humancockpit="yes". You will have a Su-27 cokpit though but the exteriour will be F-18.

How about trying to compile your source in Visual Studio2003.NET to make your code a dotnet-project?? I'd LOOOVE that :P

Huh? A patch for 1.1?? Why? I am having too much of a great time flying the Su-25T to have even noticed anything wrong/not working correctly?? ;) Lemme get back to flying :) :)

I downloaded at 169k/second from lockon.ru. Some other people also are reporting in other threads high download speeds of >140k/second the past week.

This is a fantatisc instructional videoclip for lo-mac newbies and experienced lo-mac virtual pilots. Thanx ruggbut, L0csta! :) What tactic in lo-mac 1.1 can one do in the same scenario as this videoclip but with 2 F14's?

I got a Russian language CD from my brother' russian girlfriend :). What you need to do is to copy from your english downloaded version (or demo?) the file \lomac\FUI\EnglishVersion\UserInterface.cfg to \lomac\FUI\RussianVersion\UserInterface.cfg. Still, there will be problems coz none of the text on screen will be readbale. In mission briefings you will only see questionmarks like this: "??????, ??? ??-34...". I have no sultion for the questionmarks. My Windows version in WindowsXP Pro Dutch. Possibly Windows itself has some effect in the questionamrks. In an attempt to solve the questionmarks i replaced protect.dll and lockon.exe with those form ym downloaded lo-mac. No use. Then lo-mac does not start at all. My only solution was to remove the CD-version in total and go back to the downloaded lo-mac. Maybe ED could give us some hints on peeps who have both the russian CD and downloaded english version, a fix for the questionmarks? As consolation i do have lo-mac on CD, though :).

I havent got an X45 but some simliair problem occured when i bought a Microsoft keybord which didnt have a right-Windoze key. Not a big deal in 1.02 but in 1.1 the radar mode is changed with RWin + I. My solution was to map the AppMenu-key as an addition to the RWin key. You can do that in the options at Input. Maybe this helps?
