  1. On the first page of the mission builder is the start time top right. Set the time to something like 20:00:00 (default is 09:00:00) and all flights you'll create will have their TOTs according to that.
  2. Yeah, there is a way, but by all this LOMAC flying it slipped my mind. Suggest you go there: http://forums.frugalsworld.com/vbb/forumdisplay.php?f=73 and ask again.
  3. Same goes for people posting stuff about about cheating. If you have no evidence i'll suggest you'll better hold your busy typing fingers ;)
  4. Great! I can't imagine anybody in the world stupid enough to attack the US with a third world airforce. Just take a look at current events in the world and -imho- the challenges can't be mastered by something like the F-22. I don't want to start a political discussion, but looking at current problems the F-22 is in no way part of a solution. A nice toy to fly and play with, but nothing more. And therefor, it really sucks.
  5. HyperLobby has it's own forum: http://hyperfighter.sk/modules.php?name=Forums I would go there first.
  6. I saw civilian traffic (the one you can enable in the options) 'fly' over a destroyed bridge, but a tank column stopped.
  7. Reading this: http://www.simhq.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=140;t=003786;p=1 and this: http://www.simhq.com/simhq3/sims/boards/bbs/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=140;t=003814 shows what's possible. Makes me wonder whether i have to wait forever to see Lockon acting in same playing field. How i long for playing something like that in the Lockon universe; it's so ... unfair :noexpression:
  8. They'll be back in September to promote the sequel.
  9. Please tell me more about this "proper training regime" :thumbup: Shall I buy a pig in a poke?
  10. How about a timezone, training program and a working link ?
  11. Hwg, whiz, you'll better ask on HL forum :)
  12. I've flown Falcon, F/A-18 and Lomac online for 8 years now and the best missions i can remember had been coops vs the AI. What i consider to be a good mission? Take off (from a carrier) with your teammates, fight your way to the target (preferably in a multi role fighter) by shooting down clever Ai planes (generated by dynamic campaign), destroy your target (usually some ground movers or a static target) by deploying cluster or LGB munitions. Fly back to your base, sometimes with refueling, and call it a day by having a drink on the hot shot of the coop. Hwg, we really had FUN. I do not criticise todays way/style of flying - may it be called air quake, flatten the tower, a coop or plain old dogfight. One has to adapt or leave, it's that simple. What we have to accept is that the game forces some sort of gameplay, especially online. Some missions as i know them from Falcon or F/A-18 are not possible and there's no workaround. We have to go for it, because improvements of the mission editor are not in sight. Sometimes i'm jealous of new pilots in Hyperlobby. They join some flights, say 'Man, that sucks!' and can leave for some other games/genre. And i sit there and think 'Damned, this is my hobby for so many years now and i can't leave it because i KNOW what's possible, being addicted to flight sims and hope for the next patch or addon!' Make the best of it!
  13. IIRC you can program/configure the deadzone and response curve(s) in the control manager software.
  14. To be honest - the SP settings to replicate a MP environment haven't been programmed yet. Nothing meets the diabolic, back-stabbing and nasty behavior humans can give you in MP - and i mean this in a positive way ;)
  15. Yep, 3 times. He wasn't shot down, he was REALLY shot down.
  16. Today i've played with the new (and great!) ACMI tool and saw 2 veterans fire 11 120's at a poor soul flying a SU27. Welcome to Lomac online play :music_whistling:
  17. Well, concerning future products from ED i would say the question is when we'll get them and not if. Big difference IMHO. FO has yet to deliver anything to dispel my doubts - selling pretty shirts isn't enough :)
  18. Say it in a positive way: Humans fly way better :thumbup: Programming a decent AI is a difficult undertaking (read: time and money) and humans pester you with more tricky stuff you can think about. And don't forget: humans learn and get better ... you fly like you train.
  19. Nah, not for me. In your first posting you've said "not online". Beeing not online and losing fps? Strange ...
  20. Cool, Jane's F/A-18 with the newest TSH patch :thumbup:
  21. IIRC all versions of Falcon 4 benefit from multiple core CPUs: http://forums.frugalsworld.com/vbb/showpost.php?p=1128116&postcount=8 I'm using an AMD 4400+ X2 and can confirm the improvements.
  22. While the synthetic benchmark shows an increase from 4972 to 7671, the 3D benchmark raises from 85 to 97 fps. Is that worth the effort? "People can come up with statistics to prove anything; 14 percent of people know that." - Bart Simpson
