earl grey Posted March 11, 2006 Posted March 11, 2006 Just wanted to inform you about this upcoming event. I guess some of you have already heard about it. I don't want to bother you with promotional blabla, so if you are interested in a 2vs2 dogfight, check out the official home page. BTW there's also a short movie about last year's championship. Thx for reading
Reaper-6 Posted March 11, 2006 Posted March 11, 2006 Thx for the effort Earl, it's a great thing. Hair on the wall... Blood in the street... The crush of bone ' neath my feet.
Pilotasso Posted March 12, 2006 Posted March 12, 2006 the prizes could be better...lol But then there probabaly wont be enough people attending it to be much better. Besides I already know whos the best... .
peterj Posted March 12, 2006 Posted March 12, 2006 They could do some better coverage than last year, those lowres video streams with a locked external view on one plane was pretty pointless. The prizes could be better but I wouldn't mind a FORTIS B-42 Pilot Pro Crono, it's a nice watch :) The Pilot Pro Crono Alarm is nicer, but that's one expensive alarm function at $5800, the one you can win is $2200 (list prices). http://www.fortis-watch.com/en/collection/b42/pilot.html
dynamocl Posted March 12, 2006 Posted March 12, 2006 From the website Nevertheless we hope you can get an overview about the hole championship There is a digging championship as well? Reminds me of the old maths questions, if one man can dig a hole in 2 days, how long does it take for 2 Su27 pilots to dig a hole?
RvEFoxteR Posted March 12, 2006 Posted March 12, 2006 the prizes could be better...lol If you can find more prestigeous LockOn championship then Fortis cup please let me know. The organisers really put ALOT of money and effort into this championship and I'm saying as person who witnessed the event last year and I'm sure this year will be even better. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Pilotasso Posted March 12, 2006 Posted March 12, 2006 Yeah I know that, I told you, you cant do much better without more audience realy. I wish I could attend this challenge, but I cannot. Prizes or no prizes. .
peterj Posted March 12, 2006 Posted March 12, 2006 I found the tracks from 2005 here, but only the plane you follow show up in the replay (fighting air), any ideas? I tried to install the textures and roll back to 1.11, didn't help.
earl grey Posted March 13, 2006 Author Posted March 13, 2006 Last year showed, that those who came were actually more interested in getting familiar with each other, than winning the cup. This was especially true for the Czech team - great people. We are not only talking about a cup here, but rather about an opportunity to connect nicks with faces. Come on Pilotasso, I'm sure the 504 server will survive a weekend without you :) Peterj: there's a small app called lotu in the zip archive. You can enable external views with it in a track which was recorded with disabled external views. I had a look at the tracks back in December and all of them played back correctly. I've also re-uploaded the zip file just to make sure, that you are not fooled by a crc error.
jj_pt Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 Lets go Pilotasso. What better way to show that you suck at combat flying than a true competition? [sIGPIC]http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/images/userbars/A-10C_UserBar_01.gif[/sIGPIC]
Woodstock Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 yeah? who pays the trip? you? ;)Ask TAP Air Portugal to sponsor your team by giving you a 10%-Standby-Ticket. Maybe you can even ride on the jumpseat... Asking never hurts! "For aviators like us, the sky is not the limit - it's our home!"

I've played the track as it is, and in video edit, havn't changed anything with lotu tho. If anyone wan't to confirm if the the tracks work in 1.12a that'll be good.

Noo, lol They just declared a negative financial results last semester, and thei're getting greedy on custumers because of that. Maybe if I disguise myself as a chicken and stamp myself "product from malaysia" and start sneazing Ill get a free passage in the animal compartiment! Truth is I cant be absent right now. Busy. .

Just run the tracks and like you I can only see 1 plane ... what gives?
