Hi!

 

Can't we use IAR 80 in multiplayer servers (even when the scenario refers to the period when IAR 80 has been used in battles?

That will depend upon each server’s admins. The devs release content and tools, and each multiplayer server’s admins incorporate them per their priorities for their individual servers.

Hello everyone,
first of all thank you to all the developers for this new update and for this very beautiful IAR 80 and this superb Waco glider. ???
a small note, can you include the French translation of the solo mission: Chicago-Night in the next update ?
I thank you in advance.

 

I have another question, I just bought The Battle for Kuban on Steam, the solo missions are not in French, how can I have them in my native language ?

 

Hoping that the end-of-year holidays are going well for you all, I wish you good flights.

(BTW dept: I recently had a game freeze using OpenComposite and Necksaver after the last hotfix which I thought was the cause .It turned out I "activated" VR Enhancer 6.7 through JSGME at the same time and it was the cause of the troubles apparently...Just sayin' be careful with new Mods everyone.)

This sort of stuff is usually down to finding a person capable of translating the mission files into the given language. In the past, we've had various community members translate missions into French. Similar situation with Spanish.

Awesome job on the update! Amazing job at keeping to the timeline as well with the end of 2023 release! ?

Ce genre de choses revient généralement à trouver une personne capable de traduire les fichiers de mission dans la langue donnée. Dans le passé, divers membres de la communauté ont traduit des missions en français. Situation similaire avec l'espagnol.

 

Thank you for your answer,
but as far as I'm concerned I couldn't help you much, my English is non-existent I write on the forum with "Goo...translat".
I hope you find someone.

Thank you again for your extraordinary work.

Just a short multiplayer review of the Glider:

 

A C47 taxied in front of me. We connected the rope.

(The glider can judge the distance and call the C47 to stop, then the glider presses the button to connect the rope)

Short taxi until the glider moves, then full power with the C47. In a good glide altitude I disconnected the rope and landed on the runway.

Cool :))      Well made glider and rope implementation !

The IAR 80 looks a pretty goofy while taxiing. The little tail skid leaves these huge divots. It would be better if it simply left the same track as a tailwheel does.

Spoiler

 

I agree with @Jaws2002 that head movement feels too restricted -- does the game engine limit head-movement to a cuboid region, and that needs to fit inside the head armor? Is that why it's so limited? Right now it's a blown canopy with worse rear visibility than most of the razorback planes, which doesn't make a lot of sense.

 

Given the head restrictions as they are, it feels like the mirror is aimed too high. Even with head position raised to the maximum, the mirror leaves a substantial lower blind-spot; I found myself unable to observe a LaGG while dragging him in my last flight. In real life I'd definitely be making my crew chief get his pliers and adjust it downwards a little.

Yes, it's been reported.

Hi, thanks to all the designers for the last update of this game. I've never completed a mission with a multi-seat plane in single player because the AI gunner was scattering projectiles all over the sky and never hitting anything. This really bothered me. This bad AI property changed after the last update. Thank you very, very much. BTW sorry for my bad english.

Check out Stonehouse's AAA and AI gunnery mods. It makes it even better than the last update.

Error in career Jasta 12 in 1918

 

Hello,

I flew a career in JaSta 12 in 1918.

Flights are suspended from February 25, 1918 to March 3, 1918.

When the career jumps to March 4th, 1918, the day is no longer displayed and the circle spins forever.

The career can no longer be continued, the game hangs and can only be ended with Alt + F4.

After restarting the game and starting the career nothing changes.
