Gryzor Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 Yes, in 1.02 radar cannot detect any object trought mountains. In 1.1, I can lock up any pane in mountain terrain TROUGHT mountains. I hope this bug along with terrain preload bug will be resolved.

I hope this bug along with terrain preload bug will be resolved. Only if locked airplane has ECM turned on. Yes it is a bug. Yes, turn your ECM off when behind mountains.

Guest ruggbutt Posted April 29, 2005 Posted April 29, 2005 Only if locked airplane has ECM turned on. Yes it is a bug. Yes, turn your ECM off when behind mountains. Incorrect. I've locked up planes when flying low in the mountains, I see the target square and they're definitely on the other side.
lunanera Posted April 29, 2005 Posted April 29, 2005 oh my oh my this is definetly not good for us hog pilots...
Gryzor Posted April 29, 2005 Author Posted April 29, 2005 In 1.02 between mountains you were undetectable by radars. Now, with 1.1, even with ECM off, radar spikes paint your plane all the time

GGTharos Posted April 29, 2005 Posted April 29, 2005 Yep even sitting on tarmack. That's not an issue - radars can see things moving on the ground ... the see-through-mountains issue is a problem.

Han Posted April 29, 2005 Posted April 29, 2005 In 1.02 between mountains you were undetectable by radars. Now, with 1.1, even with ECM off, radar spikes paint your plane all the time Can't confirm. This bug is reproducing only if target is carying ECM stantion. May be a simple track? With Best Regards! Daniel Tuseyev Il-2: Battle of Stalingrad and Rise Of Flight projects manager
KAN Posted April 29, 2005 Posted April 29, 2005 I've had many flights where the bandit ran behind a mountain to lose the lock and indeed it lost the lock... I never saw this bug either... http://www.grey-wolves.net
Guest ruggbutt Posted April 29, 2005 Posted April 29, 2005 I've picked up contacts thru the mountains, the F15 Patrol Caucasus mission for one.
ZoomBoy27 Posted April 29, 2005 Posted April 29, 2005 I've picked up contacts thru the mountains, the F15 Patrol Caucasus mission for one. Anyway you can do a track for that so that the devs have something to look at?

Gryzor Posted April 29, 2005 Author Posted April 29, 2005 I have the track file showing the bug saved, where i can send it???

Gryzor Posted April 29, 2005 Author Posted April 29, 2005 at the end of the track shows clear that I lock a plane trough mountain, and my target doesn´t have ECM turned on
GGTharos Posted April 29, 2005 Posted April 29, 2005 I cannot watch the track from here ... what was your target, was it at all equipped with ECM, and do you know for SURE that it wasn't jamming, or is it possible that you were within burn-through range? I'll also note that BT range is a bit funky against AI, I've noticed ...

KAN Posted May 1, 2005 Posted May 1, 2005 Gryzor is right, and his track clearly shows it... No need to ask further questions GG, just watch the track. ;) I only rarely fly the F15 and I didn't notice this with Russian planes before. And someone locked me with F15 today when I was hiding in the mountains and no matter what I did, I couldn't see him on my radar. So I'm assuming this bug is present only for F-15's... It surely is the worst bug ever though. (Much worse than the bug which when you use HOJ, the Russian planes get a lock & launch warning and other bugs IMO) It is a must fix for 1.2. :/ http://www.grey-wolves.net
Guest ruggbutt Posted May 1, 2005 Posted May 1, 2005 It is a must fix for 1.2. :/ Incorrect. It's a must fix (along w/the other bugs) for a 1.1 patch.
coldcrew Posted May 1, 2005 Posted May 1, 2005 I viewed the track. This is the caucus mission so all the targets are enemies and have jamming on pretty much throughout the entired track. After a long time flying through the mountains trying to lock on the jamming target he finally does it on the last mountain. It's the ECM mountain bug that has been there like forever
Prophet_169th Posted May 1, 2005 Posted May 1, 2005 Yes, in 1.02 radar cannot detect any object trought mountains. In 1.1, I can lock up any pane in mountain terrain TROUGHT mountains. I hope this bug along with terrain preload bug will be resolved. I must say, that I also noticed this in 1.02. Just never thought much about it.
Guest ruggbutt Posted May 1, 2005 Posted May 1, 2005 Fly the Causcasus mission below the mountain tops, and use AWACS only for directional heading. Several times when I kicked the radar on I was w/in 5nm ("merged") and I found I was locking them up on the other side of the mountain.
