Will LOFC 2.0 support Windows 7 (32bit & 64bit) ?

 

The question is: Will Windows 7 support FC2.0?

If not, Windows 7 is dead to me .... :music_whistling:

 

Naaa, honestly, the question remains: will FC2.0 run with Windows 7?

basic

for translators ...

If I can run run LoFC 1.12b AND DCS Blackshark on windows 7 then I'm sure LoFC 2.0 will work! Hell I've even got HalfLife 2 and SSI Flanker 2.0 working with Win7. lol

Cloud Base

 

Question about clouds in FC2.0

 

- Improved clouds

 

Is this only texture wise or will the weather engine be improved aswell?

 

 

The main thing I want to point at is that clouds (not speaking of overcast situations) never appear lower than 2000 meters. That while you setup 300 meter in the mission options.

 

To me it appears that cumulus clouds are restricted to the highest mountain (to prevent clouds inside mountains).

 

Sidenote: at typical summer days, clouds start to develop at around 300 meter and rize during the day to around 1300 meter.

 

I always found that this "lack" of reality destroys the sensation of speed and altitude. Lack of speed sensation when flying between the ground and cloud base, and lack of altitude sensation when flying at high altitude as the clouds still appear to be close.

 

Next to that, it would be really nice to have cirrus clouds implented aswell!

 

Wags?

The clouds really need a work-on. They all look like puffy patterns spread around...not variety, no sphere clouds......true.

I think it's safe to assume that we won't see any huge difference in the "clouds" area in FC 2, compared to 1.12 (maybe just a little better-looking clouds). More or less, it will be exactly as they appear in Black Shark.

 

We've already seen that the clouds for DCS A-10C has got'n a pretty good makeup, so i think it's better to say that, the "weather engine" for clouds, fog, rain, snow etc, will be improved as the DCS series evolve. ;)

FC1.12 runs okay on my system.... and Im still on the RC 64bit, so why shouldn't FC2.0 not work on Win7..?

The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

To ED: are you planning any way for the community to make new cockpits and/or customizing avionics?

 

I think making it open to new cockpits would keep FC2 alive for much time (just look at F4 and ThirdWire sims).

To LOFC2.0:

1.Add canon funnel mode in F-15C.So the players can use canon with radar silent.I believe it's easy because there was already the mode in A-10A.

2.When the missile is ready to launch,the Russian pilot's headphone has a betty voice.But If I disable "radio tips" in game option,the voice is disable too.It should be detach from game option.

3.Add voice link between pilot and GAI like AWACS.I believe it's easy too.

1. I'm not too sure about this but if it's not in the real F15 then you won't get it in game!

2. I beleive this is set server side.

3. Have you tried calling the awacs using the hash key menu, or get yourself VAC (Voice Activated Commands) and programming that so you can call awacs with your own voice?

1) Does the F-15 have a gun funnel?

2) Is this the "Launch Authorized" voice that used to be in Flanker 2.5? I wouldn't mind that...

3) Oh, god! The Voices! Too many! jk. Actually, this would be fine, I just think AWACS (And GAI) should speak less than it does. ATM, it says everything twice and the voice over is not very fast (It takes a long time).

DCS Wishlist: 1) FIX THE DAMN RIVERS!!! 2) Spherical or cylindrical panorama view projection. 3) Enhanced input options (action upon button release, etc). 4) Aircraft flight parameter dump upon exit (stick posn, attitude, rates, accel, control volume, control-surface positions, SAS bias, etc). 5) ADS-33 maneuver courses as static objects. 6) Exposed API or exports of trim position and stick force for custom controllers. 7) Select auto multiple audio devices

AFAIK no, at least I haven't seen that representation on an F-15 HUD anywhere, including the -1.

Strangely, for being an air to air-only top dog, it seems like there's not much HUD footage lying around. You can trip and hurt yourself on the F-16 stuff, but no F-15! Does the F-15 have anything besides whatever it is we have in LOMAC? I would say LCOS, but it doesn't seem to work how LCOS is supposed to. It looks more like what the Su/Mig have, just a different "skin".

For a gunsight? I think it's just the radar director ... but there is really a huge volume of things that are simply not known about the F-15 as well, so who knows.

I've never seen HUD footage/pictures of an F-15 with a funnel gunsight. The diagram below is the only cannon modes I know exsist on the Eagle.

Yep, same thing I've seen - and now confirmed by people in the know, no gun funnel for F-15.

My surprise is at the thought that the F-15 doesn't have more types of air to air gunsights. The F-16 has several, one of which -- EEGS -- that is fairly complex an information-heavy compared to the F-15. Never understood why all that information was necessary, though.

I don't know the answer either ... I like the F-15 presentation. Death dot is all you need.

Speaking about guns- FC2.0 will bring totaly diferent story in the guns only dogfights. Along with the advanced balistics the damage effect of guns is as it should be. No more few-hits-without-a-scratch thingy. One hit- engine fire, few more- wing is falling appart. So be careful ;)

Yep. At the same time, no more lasers-at-two-miles. :D

If I have a European hardcopy of Flaming Cliffs 1.12 and I buy what I assume will be the North American version of Flaming Cliffs 2.0 online since I live in Canada, will they work with eachother?

Hmm, dunno how i have to understand this. Will test it as soon as i have it in my fingers (few other aspects might be cruicial too...let´s be suprised), but somehow cool to know that you dont have to chase already hurt bandits running supersonic-push-pulll-rudder-righ-left-push-pull halleluyaa over whole afghanistan :megalol: ...but also sounds like better "spray and pray" chances.... :huh:.
