The best way to learn is start with simple Navigation and CCIP runs for A/G. [sIGPIC] [/sIGPIC]
Wombat1940 Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 1.04 Bug?? O(....... there is a big bug with the 1.04 patch ....... ) Can you elaborate or maybe a thread redirection?

Jester_159th Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 F4AF patch 1.04 has been reported by some to cause problems with the RWR volume intermittantly turning itself down/ off. I believe some also had problems with the auto-updater utility. As it is I installed it via the utility with no problems, but haven't had any time to really test it since installation. As it is patch 1.05 is ready to go, but here again a couple of problems with the auto updater on some systems need tweaking. Check the following link: http://www.simhq.com/simhq3/sims/boards/bbs/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=140;t=002619
SUBS17 Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 I have 1.04, have yet to experience the RWR bug both online and offline, the FM tweak is very good though. [sIGPIC] [/sIGPIC]
SuperKungFu Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 one thing that i feel Falcon lacks in the FM. When the plane goes into a stall, it's pretty hard to recover from it. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
SUBS17 Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 Thats called a departure and you must carry out a departure recovery technique in order to regain control. This involves switching the MPO and rocking the Aileron and elevators. If in an inverted departure they also can go into an inverted spin in which case opposite rudder is also required.

Thank you for answering this question for SuperKungFu. I fly in a Falcon squadron and that is one of the items that must be passed during flight training. It's easy though once you know what switches must be used and how to cycle the joystick. If you own Falcon AF, it would benefit you to join a squadron. However, there are not many that fly both LOMAC and Falcon.
504 Wolverine Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 If you own Falcon AF, it would benefit you to join a squadron. However, there are not many that fly both LOMAC and Falcon. Fortunately, We do. :D [/url]

If you own Falcon AF, it would benefit you to join a squadron. However, there are not many that fly both LOMAC and Falcon. I fly with the Airwolves Division, we have a couple of Squadrons that use both F4AF and Lockon 1.02/Flaming Cliffs. Other sims we use are Janes F/A-18, Dangerous Waters and Pacific Fighters.

SUBS17 Posted January 4, 2006 Posted January 4, 2006 Departure Recovery (when your viper starts flying like a brick) 1/ release controls 2/If the FLCS fails to self recover reduce throttle to idle if you are inverted. 3/Opposite rudder if its spinning 4/MPO switch overide 5/Hands back on the controls, begin cycle in phase by pulling back on the stick as the nose rises then when the nose drops push stick forward. Keep doing this until you rock it until the nose remains low. Buildup speed to 200kts and start a gentle pullout. 1 [sIGPIC] [/sIGPIC]

2close2see Posted January 11, 2006 Posted January 11, 2006 I got F4:AF with my trackIR 4...if you're used to playing lomac with trackIR, you will be VEEERRRRYYY disappointed with allied force. The Clickable pit jumps to different views when you look around which is very disorienting. The "3d" pit will pan smoothly, but looks like something out of a 1996 sim and is graphically a joke. I'm sure I'd love the sim if there was a patch to make the 2d pit pan smoothly, but as far as I know, this would be a major undertaking, as it seems to be programmed as different 2d pictures overlaid over different view angles. I liked the original falcon from the late 80's, but that was looooong before trackIR spoiled me.
Hammer3246 Posted January 11, 2006 Posted January 11, 2006 The 2d pit works exactly as you say, thats why its 2d. The 3d on the other hand works as it should however like, you pointed out is extremely dated, the original falcon 4.0 with its many mods allows for one thats quite better. But you're sol with AF.

Pilotasso Posted January 11, 2006 Posted January 11, 2006 It recieved a high res ground textures pack. .
Hammer3246 Posted January 11, 2006 Posted January 11, 2006 True but I was talking cockpits. :D 13900KF NVD4090 32RAM G2
2close2see Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 High texture ground is all well and good, but I'd rather the attention be spent on something that's a few feet from my face in game rather than a few thousand....I wonder if any of this stuff will make it thru to AF.... http://www.cockpits.nl/index2.html
SuperKungFu Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 There's a forum over at frugals about cockpit mods. LOL but i got banned until the 13th LOL...ah well...it was worth it. 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
