Okay, that might be it - will try. Thank you!

Same with the guided bombs training mission.... :(

Hey all, I am playing the training missions to get familiar with the bird. When playing the Maverick training for example the coach tells me to select waypoint 3, since the target is located there. When I now select waypoint 3 it will be selected very shortly (for like 0.1 seconds) until it automatically jumps to the next waypoint (4 in this case). Then I press steer down to get to waypoint 3 and it will select waypoint 2. And so on. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any help!

Its not WW2 in general, it's a personal thing between ED and the A8. Look at the P47 f.e. that just received its variants...

Truth is: ED hates the A8 and is not gonna invest another minute into its development.

I recently aquired good literature on the topic of Axis radar and radio technology, so if you have any specific questions, feel free to ask.

Imo most interesting in Normandy is the Tausendfüssler which had a Klein-Heidelberg passive radar site. Im not sure about the exact dates of operation and since the Allies only learned about the technology way after the invasion it would be nice to have it enter the game along with a working Chain Home Radar. When looking at your list Dietrich I noticed that "Biene"-Station lists a Gemse and Brutus-Y lists EGON. Gemse is a part of EGON so not sure how to make sense of that.

What I posted was basically the complete changelog of the patch in which the Anton left EA. None of the mentioned features is actually complete/working as intended. Hence my cheeky "for amusement" comment. So no, it's not in the manual.

Keep in mind that ships are usually way more vulnerable to attacks from the top than against attacks to the side, since the hull is by far better protected. Imo a 500kg bomb hit should have a good chance to completely disable the ship due to destruction of vital components or even sink it with a single bomb when the ammo storage is hit. Rudel f.e. sunk a Russian battleship with a single bomb.

Repost for amusement:

That was also mentioned in the news item when the Anton left early access :thumbup:

No, that is not what he was saying.

Would be great if not only the unit sets but also assets on the map itself were automatically adjusted for the chosen date of the mission.

We also need a Battleship, an Aircraft carrier, a Destroyer, proper Radar systems (Chain Home, Knickebein, etc), different types of bombs (esp incendiary), fitting ground units... It's gonna happen soon™

Yea, but more in a dropped-like-a-hot-potato sense, than really finished and polished :)

All of that is still work in progress (I guess?) However there's no official info available on the different kind of bombs.

yes

I recommend this very nicely done interview: http://video.flyingheritage.com/v/116079427/feldwebel-erich-brunotte.htm

This has been reported along with the bug that you cant jettison the empty tubes after firing the rockets. However there is no official response on this and neither on all the other missing or malfunctioning parts of the Anton.

I think what B@ron has to say sounds quite convincing. And it seems considerable effort has been spent to arrive at his conclusions. Maybe ED devs can consider this information when looking at AI flight models. If possible even before the big bang AI FM revamp, since this seems to be mainly pointing at simple lua configurations.

Yea, thx alot from me as well! :)

I deleted the first unpack to root directory and then it worked correctly. Really cool mod imo! Looking forward to some nice races! :)

Soooo how to install this? I unpacked to DCS root dir but no new plane. I tried activate with JSGME to no avail. I tried to unpack to saved games dir but also no new plane.

The communication & transparency coming out from HB is top notch. Sets an example :) Looking forward to all the cool stuff coming out and to Reflected's F14-A campaign!

So what does everyone think about the map's size & position?
