Developer Diary, Part 67

[senseispcc]

Whatever, dude. You have the same capability to check whether or not a certain instrument works, so it really looks out of place coming here asking us to check it for you. Geez, you don't even need to take off to check whether or not the compass is working! 

I am sorry to say you are an impolite "dude" I only asked because I am polite and ask to attract the attention of other to the fact that the compass was corrected in the La-5 but I did not know if it was in other planes! Is it so hard to understand? 

 

I did not see you are from the US of A where people do not have some real education sorry I should not write this you think you are the master of the world! "DUDE" Be polite and do have some nicety to other you maybe make friends with other persons in other countries you do not need to invade.

Well, yeah, I get that but.

 

I reckon it would take about 3 minutes to post the question on the forum.

Then, what, maybe half an hour or more to wait for the reply?

 

It would take about 4 minutes to choose a different plane in QMB, load it up, take off, check the compass works, quit back to the menu.

 

I just find it weird when people ask stuff, that they are able to check themselves, in far less time than it takes to post and wait for the reply.

 

I must be weird being the sort of person that, if I want to know something I'd find it easier and quicker to check it for myself than post a question on the internet and wait for the reply.

 

BTW, does anyone know what the default key is for the Boost in the La-5?

 

I'm Joking!

It is a form of politeness but I think you do not understand this?!

 

[senseispcc]

A forum is to discus, not to say things but like a ping pong game!

someone say something sak a question and an answer is needed if no answer is neede why a forum?

I am also sorry it ascaladed so but i am not in letting myself being critizised if I am right. I asked this question so other person could answer and continue with other coments on other subjects they did see that where improvement of the game.   

And yes the FW-190 shoud be a great adition to the game like many other planes I hope.

Guys - asking a question is a perfectly reasonable thing to do. What on earth is the problem?

 

Maybe he's away from his PC, maybe he has been busy recently. Or maybe he's just idly wondering about something and thinks someone else might know. People have other things to do some times.

 

As for dragging the thread off-topic to delve into methods and motivations of acquiring information and scold people for not doing things as you would like them done, that is far more disruptive, in my view.

 

Anyway, it's all over anyway, so that's the end of it.

Let's all stay on topic from here on out.

This kind of ruins the credibility of your argument. Your past posts suggest you're better than that. Just some polite encouragment from an ignorant American.

You are right but I do not like to be named "Dude" by some stranger. Sorry! And is the compass working correctly in all the flyable plane of BOS?

 

[FlatSpinMan]

Alright. I'd missed that "master of the world" comment.Totally unnecessary, and bringing politics in is never helpful.

Once more, all return, and stay, on topic.

You are right but some people are very rude in other topics and never anyone says anything or got his comment deleted, why? But because he is some tester! He has all rights to do has he wants! This my last post so he has won and I do not believe he did write the manual of ROF “alone”?! Bye!

[Mastermariner]

Don't give in senseispcc! Your voice is important in this forum.

 

 

Games with guns and uniforms etc attracts a very peculiar mob to say the least.

 

 

Just learn to live with them ,there will always be one of "them" in the forum,  and above all, be yourself.

Hi senseispcc, 

The compasses are all working correctly in the various aircraft, now (I don't have the La5 , as I only have the cheaper version of the sim, but its undoubtably correct there, too).

I have a problem with "lazy" wingmen who let me take-off alone and face the opposition! They are happy to remain on the runway and watch me get shot down!

Bye bye.

I actually recall a documentary on a similar plane I think it was the F4 in which the flaps weren't strong enough to hold themselves down at speed so some pilots would leave them in the extended position and use them sorta like the slats on a 109.

 

More likely the pilot wasn't strong enought. Bf109s had a manual hand cranked flap system (automatic electric/pneumatic systems were highly insufficient by that time) which was more reliable, though the pilot had to use his muscle at higher speeds to use them.

 

I think he meant the Grumman F4F, but definately not the Bf-109F-4.

 

Alas, I think I've found something that might not be right. Take the Il-2, lower the flaps, so they come down a bit, and then rise them. What happens now is that they immediately fall down to fully extended position. Doesn't happen always, but like 90-95% of my tries. Didn't try this in the Yak, though.

[FlatSpinMan]

Senseipc - no one is asking you to get all dramatic and leave, but there is a limit to how much drama and histrionics I'll take, and you are right up there now.

[Eldur]

I didn't see his post as a request to go off and find out if the compass works. I think he just wanted to know if someone had seen the fix in other planes. That's what this forum is all about: saving time by sharing knowledge in a FRIENDLY way.

 

Cheers!

 

Correct. My first through was that he just had a couple of minutes to spend on trying out the patch and then to shut down his rig for maybe familiy or other reasons. There's nothing wrong to ask what others might have seen then and see the answer the next time before firing up the sim and trying out all the planes. But I wouldn't say "I like to to complete flights", because if I'm curious about something, I'll go and try it out if time allows.

Yes, the IL-2 flaps are a bit buggy. Take the IL-2 in a dive with flaps up and try to reach more than 400 km/h and see what happens.

Actually Senseispcc I tended to agree with what JimTM had posted. But why is it necessary to insult the other 317 million people who also live in the US? The majority of the folks I know (some with 'real education')are kind,generous,and polite and in no way think of themselves as Master of the World. And then you lecture others on politeness?

[Bearcat]

Why don't you look and see for yourself?

 

 

Wouldn't it have been far quicker just to jump in any other plane in QMB and check, rather than type your question here and wait for the reply?

 

 

My thoughts exactly. It takes about a minute to generate a quick mission and see if a compass is working correctly or not in a particular plane.

I just checked out the new flap behavior, and I like what I see. In the Yak, if you try to extend flaps at too high of a speed, the cockpit lever will "stick" in the extended (forward) position and will only return to center if the airspeed lowers sufficiently or the player manually retracts the flaps. 

 

 

Whatever, dude. You have the same capability to check whether or not a certain instrument works, so it really looks out of place coming here asking us to check it for you. Geez, you don't even need to take off to check whether or not the compass is working!

Lighten up guys... This whole thread got twisted in a direction that was totally unnecessary just because a guy asked a question... Just because it is not a question you would have asked is no reason for the responses given.. With all the back and forth BS about certain other aircraft that pops up in here more often than I care for we certainly don't need this kind of drama so please.... if you can't be helpful or constructive.... like you usually are, then just don't post at all.

[AX2]

There are huge fps drops and  stutters while planes get shot/explode/crash and etc.

Maybe particles falling from the planes cause server to slow down?

 

Maybe the parts torn out and broken from the plane cause a PC slowdown, ( is not the server is your PC. ) I guess

I reaches the same conclusion as you, I think about it  long time  , I think the slowdowns are not caused by the graphics, like smoke or fire.

 

If you lose a part of the plane like a wing, aileron or tail rudder, You have parts of the plane falling from the sky, from 5000 or more meters to bequeath to zero meters, if there are many parts broken away, and falling from the sky,  many  physics subroutines are activated until they reach the ground.

If 2 planes crash in middle of the air , all damage model system in game and all physics subroutines  are activated in less than a second, my PC CPU can not handle it.

I think the developers are working on that,  because The game runs better now.

Hey all ,

 

In one of my landings yesterday, I thought I was a goner, with an unbalaneced  touch down on the run way, (my fault, comming in to hot and ... ). However I did notice the view remained within the cockpit during this whole and very imersive experience. Its really cool when new discoveries are found.

 

What have you discovered lately ?

[pilotpierre]

What do you mean by "the view remained in the cockpit" Boomerang? My view is wherever I am looking.

If 2600k@4,7ghz cannot handle then we have a problem here.

But there must be a server problem too. When I played with a squadmate I noticed that then he said he had stutters/fps drops i also get get fps drops/stutters while on a runaway with no action around me (in the view range).

After mission restart things get better.

I have also noticed that parts falling from planes sometimes look really crazy (spinning around and looking lag'y).

You should have seen the landing pilotpierre .. If there where a medic in this sim, I would have been looking in that direction

During the landing, the camera view remained in cockpit. Before it used to change to the external camera view of the plane, (in a simular crash landing situation).

It just seemed different this time and the experience was great!.

[SCG_Neun]

I think he means that once you have crossed the "no turning back" point the controls are out of your hands and the sim decides the view points for the final visual. For me...it's usually a fireball....Most crashes give you an external view but this time the viewpoint remained from within the cockpit.  Very neat....

[Nankeen]

. For me...it's usually a fireball....

Thanks for sharing JagdNeun

Welcome, most of us on here have a similar pedigree of flight-sim experience and agree totally with your sentiments...

 

 

BRAVO!

 

I have owned and flown Red Baron, Janes combat fighters, European air war, B17, Microsoft combat flight simulator, Il2 (every single one of these on the day of release), Rise of flight (purchased on day of release), and Cliffs of Dover. So I have been flying for some time, and at some stage will enjoy DCS, et al

 

I just have to say.....BRAVO!

 

Easily the best flying experience in this sim so far. A brilliant feel and handling of each aircraft with comfortable multi plane dogfights above a burning and heavily bombed Stalingrad. Each week has brought something new to this game, and each week, I become more satisfied with my involvement in this project. The clouds are beyond compare. The dawn and dusk sunsets are breathtaking and the whole experience in some of the missions feels like almost a life and death situation. I find myself leaning out the window at each pass of the airfield eager to be landed and "Home". The only thing missing is the smell of the pit.

 

I am going to enjoy the FW190 I am sure, but somehow, I find myself wanting to jump in that HE111. The PE 2, especially, and Sturmovik already feel like large heavy aircraft in this game, and the HE111 will just have to be something to look forward to if it mimics the feel of these other two birds.

 

Yes....There has been some discussion about buttons and graphics and "I wants", and I agree with some of these, but for what has been delivered, I am extremely pleased, and we are ONLY half way there in percentage terms. The ghosting of aircraft in the clouds IS a big issue, but again, each week, we get further and further toward what has to arguably be one of the best combat sim's in development. Please keep up the excellent work team. Whilst we can sometimes hear the negatives which we can sometimes learn from, there is a silent community for which this sim may indeed surpass many expectations.

 

Keep going..... I wish the team great success to propel this project to its immediate objective, and with much hope, beyond that distant horizon.

 

CUDOS!!!

[ScotsmanFlyingscotsman]

Thank you for the update

I've noticed an improvement in the 

109 not dancing about as much when trying to fire at targets, done a bit of fiddling with the stick settings but belive it's better game software than any better skill on my part, hitting things more often

Thanks

[Pringliano]

Yes, yaw stability is apparently tuned in this last version, and I have no problems aiming and shooting now when flying the F4 ( I really don't like to pick the G2 )  other then my poor flight tactics :-/
