Grimes Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 Flaming Cliffs 2.0 Upgrade FAQ Q: Will my Flaming Cliffs 1.12 missions work with Flaming Cliffs 2.0? A: Due to a change in the world location and mission editor, they will not. However, when installing the upgrade you have the option to create both Flaming Cliffs 1.12 and Flaming Cliffs 2.0 parallel installs. Flaming Cliffs 1.12 and the upgraded Flaming Cliffs 2.0 will not be online compatible. Q: Will Flaming Cliffs 2.0 and DCS: Black Shark be online compatible? A: Yes! You will now be able to fly head-to-head and cooperatively with players flying the Ka-50. Considering the change is in the Lockon mission editor, would missions developed in Black Shark be compatible with some minor editing? Or are they separate file formats? Will there be any improvements to the in-game server browser? (Basic chat features.) I'm glad ED decided to take this route with dcs and lockon. I look forward to learning more of the specifics regarding how each game communicates with each other for online play. The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.

monotwix Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 Now it’s a good thing to tell your grand children. And say I fought this war. I know the human being and fish can coexist peacefully.
monotwix Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 True? I know the human being and fish can coexist peacefully.
S77th-konkussion Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 So. If I have a fully patched BS, and a 1.12. When I install this patch I will have: 1.12 LOMAC 2.0 LOMAC (assuming I exercise the option to have a parallell install) and a 1.01c BS? or does BS and 2.0 merge together?

Panzertard Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 They are separate products - and my guess is that they will need separate binary installations - that you cannot merge it. My guess though. The mind is like a parachute. It only works when it's open | The important thing is not to stop questioning

Arizona Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 Thanks ED! Looking forward to FC 2.0. Any chance we can get the whole thing on one CD/DVD? I'd pay a bit more for the convenience of a single install. Anyways, this should help keep me content until DCS: A-10C... Arizona
Thunderbird Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 i will purchase DCS when they have any of mig29,su27 or su33
Sarge55 Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 This is great news. I've been looking forward to it since it was mentioned months ago.

Moa Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 Excellent! A big thanks to Wags, the hard-working ED crew, and the all the testers who have their work cut out for them before release.
Wolf Rider Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 Good news indeed... Though I have a silly question... Starforce activation. if the FC2 is SF activation only, no drivers installed, how does that work if FC2 is an addon to FC1, which is an addon to LO, which installs SF drivers and FC2 installs over FC1? probably asked many times, is a fully Windows7 64bit compatible LO + FC1 + FC2 release going to be made?

pauldy Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 This is really some good news~~ The one i've been waiting for years~~~! ..though one downer.. i'm not really a fan of buying online.. Is there any chance for CD version? and yah, another question.. Will the online activation thing have limits too? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Huckle Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 "Limited 6 DOF cockpits that move up, down and sideways according to maneuvering" So this is not TrackIR/Freetrack 6dof then? Nate Yes, I'm more interested in this than anything else. If LOMAC now supports TIR 6dof, even if it's a lot more limited than BS, I'll buy it. If it just means that your viewpoint moves a little during hard turns, that's kind of misleading to say 6 DOF, which is used in connection with head tracking devices.
