RoF vs FC?

[Zooropa_Fly]

Why there's a 'top level' option for co-op MP missions is questionable as there's usually between 0-2 listings. Maybe co-op could be integrated into the other list as an option and ww1 take the place of the 'co-op' selection box.

And it would be nice, rather than 'hide password servers', if the option was 'show password servers'.

If you're looking for ww1 quick fun Emely, there's Misfits and Zoo Wings.

There is a difficulty in finding among the servers online the one on which there are FC aircraft.  It would be nice if the FC servers on the list had their differences.  Perhaps some sort of symbol, or the color of the letters.  Ideally, if it were a separate list.

RoF is a separate project, it has its own surroundings.  Letters from Mary to the wounded pilot, awards for success in battle and more.  The circus is only part of a large project, there is no place for this atmosphere.  Even when loading mission files, the WW2 airplane is on the splash screen, and not what I would like to see.  I consider such moments to be quite important, and I hope that they will be changed in the circus on the model of RoF.

Nevertheless, buying a bouquet of roses, you expect from it the smell of roses.  And if this bouquet smells of fish - this is not exactly what I would like

 

Agreed about the unclear differentiation between IL-2 and FC servers.

 

That said, this also plays in our advantage: sometimes when a dedicated WWI server fills up, curious WWII flyers stumble inside. Their first reaction is usually along the lines of "Where in tarnation is my BfW 199K-8 Late?!" (or something along those lines, don't ask me about WWII stuff). Then they go up in a Camel or a D.VII, are amazed at the feeling of flight and the slower pace of combat, and keep coming back. Win-win.

 

I'd still like a WWI hangar screen whenever you switch to a Flying Circus plane, though. They could just reuse the original Rise of Flight hangar.

 

 

 

Oh, the memories...

Hello !  I looked right now, found Misfits in the list, but the second one didn’t see .. I went to Misfits despite my bad ping before him and didn’t understand his rules.  For some reason, there was only a German airfield and some circles around it on the map .. The authors of this tried to do something unusual, but I would probably look for something more like the usual NFF cards, or Ases Falling..

The creators of the servers indicate either FC or WW1 in the name, but this is not always clearly visible in the general text.  If they standardized the names, this could simplify the task.  For example, first WW1, then a space, then the name and theme of the server.

Bottom of the list Emely for ZW.

It's been mostly down last couple of days because I've been working on a new map.

I've some testing to do, but will try and keep it up over the weekend in case you want a look.

Yes it would be nice .  Some work is going on in this direction.  It is important that the forum was divided into topics, and in the game, finally, the lists of aircraft were divided.  So there is an understanding that it’s harmful to mix something.

Such a scenario is possible, but these guys still need to buy the FC itself, which they don’t have, since they don’t understand where they got.  I don’t think that someone will do it just like that, after I entered the FC server by mistake.

I hope you succeed and it will gather visitors.  And I also hope that I will have a little ping to the server ? S!

You said that FM in a circus is better, I said that it is the same, only slightly damaged in the copy / paste process

That’s a great little summary! Well done!
