JGr2/J5_Klugermann Posted October 8, 2023 Posted October 8, 2023 Force feedback on N17 ailerons is much weaker than for N11. Very similar to Gotha. Any one else notice this ?

No, I think we need to make a clear distinction between what the devs disagree with needs fixing, the FMs, and what is demonstrably broken. The game is still very much playable, it's probably just not as historically accurate as it could be with revised FMs. Fixing FFB won't make it any more or less historically accurate, it will just become more playable for those with an FFB stick. In that respect they have a pretty solid track record of fixing game breaking bugs, even if it takes them a while to address them (see the invisible Fokker D.VII, the overheating Albatros D.Va, the fragile wings DM and jammed surfaces overhaul etc.). 1

I pass along anything I see to the developers which looks like something that needs to be fixed. Ultimately it's up to them to decide what to do with these reports, but the alternative is to not report anything to them, and then they potentially remain unaware of there being a problem, and nothing then gets fixed. 5 2

Any one else notice this ? I've noticed this also, meanwhile the FFB on the N17 elevator is pretty much the best out of all the WW1 planes (Spit Mk.VB for the WW2 ones). Most of the planes feels like constant FFB centering spring effect over the elevator, no airflow, and with no stall queue's until the buffeting effects kick in. A way to adjust the various FFB effects would be nice, barring that, perhaps make the FF files visible, IL-2 CloD-style, so we can edit them with Fedit? Edited October 12, 2023 by Red_Von_Hammer
J2_Bidu Posted October 16, 2023 Posted October 16, 2023 Has anyone reported the Albatros D.II overheating as a bug? It's a bit odd to see it overheating with oil at 62 degrees or so and zero degrees Celsius temperature outside.

A track file here would also be really helpful. ? 1

Ok, here is a sample of engine overheating: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1uXwNHEP2UpnRS_pl_RVYnj50eS_KLeH6/view?usp=drive_link Unfortunately in this case the map did not show the air temperature. I speculate that it has something to do with the relation with the air temperature. Where air temperature is initially zero I was overheating at 60 sometihng. On this map I think it was warmer and I overheated at eighty something, but it just happened, please check. 85 C. In other maps, I've seen 65 C. Edited October 17, 2023 by J2_Bidu 1
SYN_Mugue Posted October 17, 2023 Posted October 17, 2023 (edited) On the n17, there is a very strange and strong FFB impulse on the elevator produced by the prop wash. Just sitting on the ground, at idle, the elevator is jumping up and down violently if I take my hand off the stick. To my knowledge no other plane has this other than the N11 to a lesser extent.(but at least that one has aileron feedback.) When throttling up and the airflow lifts the elevator and the effect goes bizzerk into a mad flapping oscillation if the stick is not restrained. Surely that's not right? This effect seems to be still present even in flight and is felt anytime one gives elevator, then eases off input, and makes the plane lurch around most unpleasantly. I love to fly the RoF n17, it's a joy, but ffb on this version just feels horrible to me. I also noticed the almost complete lack of feedback on the ailerons unless you are in a dive approaching VNE. Please, put this cake back in the oven for a few more minutes. Edited October 17, 2023 by SYN_Mugue
