Migo Posted October 25, 2010 Posted October 25, 2010 (edited) It's been a while since I played DCS: BS. Now version 1.0.2 has been released. Why should I install the new patch ? I don't play online and not being able to listen to online radio or to watch tutorials anymore are huge cons. Are there any major improvements beside the FC2 compability ? Is the new sound engine a lot better ? greetings, Migo Edited October 25, 2010 by Migo
Panzertard Posted October 25, 2010 Posted October 25, 2010 Oh, the dopler effects (delayed sounds etc) from explosions and all is a nice immersion upgrade. On the other hand as you say, training missions can't be used - but at a certain point in time you wont need them anymore. You just need to get past that point. And there's been reported about bad AI wingman behaviour in 1.0.2. But when you're past the point where you can handle the chopper, fly confident and better than the AI, I would say go for 1.0.2 And go for finding some friends to fly with in MP-coop - and voice chat. This will give your another BIG kick - it's really fun having humans players to fly with as wingmen. ;) The mind is like a parachute.

Bee_Sting Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 you are right about 1.02,but it's something you will have to get pass. i liked that you can listen to the radio and have ships attack ground targets on the beach. how do you voice in DCS BS and what do i need to so?

Bucic Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 (edited) Didn't they fix or improve the trimmer? Was there something to fix? The new trimmer implementation (central position trimmer) is a part of 1.0.1 patch http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=38885 Hey, Panzertard can you edit the announcement here http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=54129 to include the following: Official 1.0.2 release topic http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=54012 1.0.2 changelog below: DCS: KA-50 BLACK SHARK 1.0.2 The Fighter Collection, Eagle Dynamics © 2010. All rights reserved. All trademarks, logos and copyrights are the properties of their respective owners. For news and updates visit us at: http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com http://forums.eagle.ru ------------------------------------------------------------------------ WARNING! Version 1.0.2 is not online (multiplayer) compatible with previous versions. Tracks (mission recordings) recorded in previous versions will not play back correctly in version 1.0.2. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- PATCH INSTALLATION Locate the saved patch file and double click to open and follow instructions. Installation on Microsoft® Windows® Vista and Windows 7 requires administrator rights. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- MULTIPLAYER COMPATIBILITY This patch adds multiplayer compatibility between the Black Shark and Flaming Cliffs 2. As such, either game can host a multiplayer server that either product can join. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- TRAINING TRACKS Old training tracks will not play back correctly in version 1.0.2. To play back older training tracks it is necessary to revert back to version 1.0.1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ANTI-CHEATING MEASURES To prevent cheating by exploiting altered visibility range settings in the graphics.cfg file, the \Config\ServerGraphics.cfg has been created. Some parameters of graphics.cfg are exported to this file, which is included in the file integrity check system for online play. If the file contents on the client machine differ from the host’s, the client will not be able to connect. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- BROADCASTING RADIO STATIONS Broadcasting stations in game are not accessible any more. This restriction has appeared in connection with a new sound engine introduction. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- CHANGES TO MULTIPLAYER 1. In order to minimize the possibility of cheating in multiplayer, a system of file and folder checks on the client machine by the server have been implemented. If the contents of the checked files/folders on the client side do not match the contents of the server, the client will be unable to connect to the server. By default, the server is set to check the folder "\Config\Weapons". The specific files and folders to be checked can be set in the following configuration file: "\Config\network.cfg", using the "integrity_check" parameter. 2. Expanded the scripting possibilities for online servers. For more information, see "\Scripts\net\". --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ERROR PROBABILITY FOR RADAR-GUIDED MISSILES ON LOW ALTITUDE Increased the error probability for radar-guided missiles (ARH, SARH, radio-command guided) based on altitude above ground. Error probability is reduced as radial velocity increases to 500 km/h. Above 500 km/h, error probability is minimal regardless of altitude. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- PROBLEMS AND KNOWN SOLUTIONS ATI Radeon: using Catalyst 9.4 (and up) drivers is known to cause possible crashing and graphical artifacts. To solve this, disable the Catalyst A.I. (right-click on the desktop -> Catalyst™ Control Center -> Graphics Settings -> 3D -> Catalyst A.I. -> Disable Catalyst A.I.). ©Eagle Dynamics, 2010 ©The Fighter Collections, 2010 Every time I need that changelog I have to become Jacques Cousteau for good 20 minutes.
