I think you should ask on VRS forums.

I'm running AICARRIER2 fine - XP 32bit here... don't know if that's the reason though. Reinstall maybe?

 

Anyway, yesterday I had my first 3 ship formation flying going on. Awesome!

[empeck]

I use Vista Premium 64bit, and have no problems with Superbug and AICarriers...

 

Shamandgg - have you been playing online?

Yes, online. With two other VRS users. Want to try? :P

[empeck]

Cool, are other planes visible on radar? Is it possible to refuel in multiplayer?

 

I have to try flying online in Superbug someday. But first I have to figure how to start this thing from cold and dark, hehe.

Yes.

Yes.

I can guide you how to do this via TS3 :) Checklist is long but it's very straightforward :)

PS. Today I'm on sickleave - so.... ;)

[Shaman]

AI planes are no longer safe in FSX world :P

[Agg]

Do the weapons work online? Can you for instance shoot down other players in multiplayer?

[SUBS17]

Not yet.

[Luke.S]

Someones upto something.:thumbup:

I see a white square SUBS17...normally I wouldn't let it get to me, but with a teasing comment like "someone's up to something" tickles my curiosity more than I can ignore ;)

It's the same film shamandgg linked to ;)

 

BTW, someone please show cockpit view when using AGM-65's... please

If you'd want to see AGM-65 display on MFD it's impossible to do in FSX.

[tflash]

Wel, I must say I like the VRS superbug very much: it flies very differently from eg Aerosofts' Viper. I always liked the Hornet avionics, they are very straightforward.

[Steel Jaw]

The only way I would consider this is if I can see the manual. I am through getting ripped.

[element1108]

I'm on my iphone so I can't find the link off hand, but you can find the manual by doing a search. Make sure it's the FSX, but they released it a few weeks before the bug.

[SUBS17]

The manual was available a few weeks ago but I can't see any link for it anymore.

[Steel Jaw]

Well google givin' me jack, so if anyone has a link for the manual appreciated.

I had to break out my credit card and get the Superbug myself, and while it probably is the best add-on ever made for FS, I cant help but feel that something is missing. I start the jet up, taxi out, take off and fly around for a couple of minutes, then come back to the airport and land... it just feels so pointless, and somehow, even though FSX has ai aircraft, ai boats, ai cars, birds and animals, I feel very alone in the FS world... FC2 on the other hand feels like a living breathing world, even though I would love for it to have some ai aircraft flying around, some ai boats, some birds and maybe even some animals. Lets hope we get a Bug for DCS some time in the future :)

[EtherealN]

FC2 does have AI boats, you know. Activate civvie traffic in your settings. ;)

[Cornbread]

:(

Yeah, but they're ghostly: you can't strafe 'em. :(

It does have a pointless feeling from a combat perspective, but carrier landings are in itself a big challenge as is air to air refueling. Most peopl in the fsx world though enjoy simply flying. Fly from their local int airport to another airport 5 hour away, sometimes more. IFR flyin etc etc. I flown online with guys who will fly from nellis afb to AFB in Hawaii in real time and in formation. That for them is the equivalent for blowing stuff up.

 

I don't mind some of that, but doing it in a military plane as opposed to a 747 is more enjoyable. I'm not even really interested in deploying weapons with the superbug, but more flight procedures and proccesses in a global setting.

Well now I've heard it all...took a long time too.

[element1108]

Of course I didn't fly with them the whole flight, but whenever I fly online I talk to a number of those types of guys. To each their own I guess.
