BLACKSHARK MULTIPLAYER BUG - A10C HUD Display Error and TGP Error

[Ghoullees]

Ok, so I think I have a bit more of an idea on this one after playing accross multiple server types, in multiple aircraft.

 

FIRST: When the A10C aircraft is played in multiplayer, on a Blackshark based server, the A10C HUD displays a much larger font and display than normal, thereby only allowing less than half the HUD data to be viewable. The rest appears off screen. And NO! This is not HUD drift data from wind, etc, etc which everyone throws about as their throw away response. The HUD data is clearly set at a different, and incorrect point of view, or .lua value in the Blackshark files.

 

This seems to only occur for A10C cockpits being played on Blackshark Multiplayer servers. It seems the Blackshark server view settings for the A10C are different from A10C Server cockpit view settings.

 

Devs: Is it possible to syncronize these settings so both cockpits view correctly, regardless whether multiplayer is run as an A10C server, or a Blackshark server? Some continuity in play accross both platforms would be brilliant. Should be easy to tweak and patch.

 

SECOND:

In addition, the TGP in the A10C is VERY inaccurate on a Blackshark server. On my run tonight, the TGP would not slew smoothly or accurately, and then stay on a target. It would jump all about everywhere except the target ( almost like the old A10A problem in Flaming Cliffs! Actually, exactly like the A10A in flaming cliffs ). Mind you, the problem I was having was that the TGP was zoomed right in, with target direct ahead and in frame, and would still not allow centering to point track mode on the target.

 

 

It seems that some of the multiplayer settings for A10C cockpit views need to be reviewed for continuity accross both server types. Strongly recommend this is given a going over as the lack of data on the A10C makes this almost unplayable with our Ka50 friends, without reverting our dedicated server over to a complete A10C server.

 

Having fun otherwise! :pilotfly:

Here is a screen shot of HUD issue that Ghoull is refering too. I am running the BS2 server and he is joining from A10C and gets this HUD distortion. This is not wind drift or loadout related.

yep I get that too. :thumbup:

Yes! I got this too a while ago. This happened after a BS1 (or FC2 mission come to think of it...) was resaved in BS2 after adding an A-10C.
