Some 1.0.2 wishes/suggestions/questions...

[olaleier]

Some features I thought I'd mention...perhaps they're easy, perhaps they're hard, I don't know. :wink:

 

 

1. When you crash, the view changes immediatly to another view (map or other plane). Is it possible to apply the ExplosionExpoTime to player views also? (switch from cockpit view to external explosion for example)

 

2. When you assign a new key in options->input, the scroll bar jumps to the top...is it possible to make it stick?

 

 

3. The menu will not remember Scenes=High and Civ Traff=On, but it will show in the game...I know you are working on that, but is there a simple workaround now? (I've tried editing graphics.cfg and setting it to Read Only, but didn't make any difference)

 

 

4. The AI needs some work... :( Is this a part of the current 1.0.2 work?

The AI can lock me up when I'm sitting on the runway, and knows my position even if he can't see me on radar (I'm hiding in terrain) and without AWACS...

 

 

5. In order to gain performance on my average PC, I have deleted (with backup :wink: ) the shader files in

Lock On\Bazar\Effects\Rendereffects\Shaders.

I know it is insulting to the beautiful graphics, but sometimes function is more important than beauty. :lol:

Are there other such "dirty tricks" that can improve performance without causing any other problems than slightly worse graphics?

 

6. Tim Ivanov (if I remember correctly) wrote a little about the Enviroment Map on the Ubi forums a while ago, it was very interesting.

He wrote that on the "Low setting", the enviroment map was set to update at every 30 mins in order to gain the most performance. Is it possible (for the tweaking user) to create a Water setting that is somewhere between Low and Medium?

I love the ripples in the water, but the Sun reflection only needs updating every 5 minutes or so (change of color/position)...is the reflection rendered between these updates?

What about rippled water but no other reflections? (Mav seeker head etc)

 

(5 and 6 is not patch suggestions, I'm only asking if it's possible to change this in .cfg files or something)

 

I apologize if any of these topics are already covered on this forum, the Babel Fish translation is not very fast or accurate. :shock:

 

 

Anyway, thanks alot for making this beautiful game. Lock On feels like a wife. I love her and will stay with her, but we argue sometimes and she has some habits we don't agree on...but I will try to remember her birthday. :P

КРИК ДУШИ!!!!

 

Ага... я плохо чего понял, но кое что понял... хотелось бы к всему перечисленному ОЧЕНЬ СИЛЬНО попрасить разработчиков - плизз! Улучшите поддержку сетевой игры! Без нормальной сети и программ-серверов Лок ОН , увы, как прискорбно это ни звучит обречен на вымирание! Из за этого некоторые даже не хотят с Фланкера переходить на Лок Он!

 

Кстати можно ли в лок-оне включить отказы - вплане не запланированных (выставления в миссии) а в меню реализм - случайные отказы - т.е проанализировать насколько часто в жизни та или иная система во время полёта выходит из строя, и чтобы программа сама делала отказы? когды об этом ты незнаеш, даже например на Чампе в Ганзо - летиш на хвосте у когота, и раз допустим один из двигателей приказал долго жить - вот веселуха то будет :-) , т.е FULL REALISM!
