ShrikeHawk 384 Posted July 8, 2007 Today, I started up a single mission in FE. Strapped on my SE.5a and got ready to dogfight. I'm flying along, sipping my morning coffee, and saw the strangest thing! I thought maybe the coffe grounds had gone bad and it was making me see things. This is what I saw... I practically choked on my coffee! I had completely forgotten about the L63s I installed. I couldn't resist using the free cam to get a closer look. I had no idea they flew in...pods! It was just too funny watching them peel off to attack! So I shrugged, and like a good pilot of the RFC, I dove in to attack. I managed to get one before the AAA got them all. They sorta' look like REALLY BIG bombs, hehehe. Cheers! ShrikeHawk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bandy 3 Posted July 10, 2007 (edited) He he, Yah, I thought it weird enough before to post as well. It would be nice to get some real zeps with the AAMGs on the top of the envelop, and a nice BIG hydrogen explosion as well. I thought about somehow modding/stringing a daisy-chain of observation balloon explosions, one tripping the other off, so there would be a ripple effect of explosions instead of the anti-climax that it currently is... Any thoughts? Edited July 10, 2007 by B Bandy RFC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gr.Viper 131 Posted July 10, 2007 And do observation balloons actually blow up? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShrikeHawk 384 Posted July 10, 2007 Well that's interesting! Liked your screenshots too. Very dramatic. This happened a few more times to me. They fly in large formations (very unhistoric) and then they peel off and dive onto the airfield. Well that was just too much. So I went into L63_Data.ini and changed the primary role from STRIKE to BOMBER. Haven't seen them since then, but I've had them a long time before they showed up. I was looking for a setting that controls formation size. Didn't see one anywhere. Does anyone know if there is something like a "MAX_AIRCRAFT=" setting somewhere? If that could be controlled, then having a singleton or maybe a pair popup during an intercept mission would be pretty cool. Zeppelin hunting could be a pretty exciting mission, especially with a bank of machine-gunners mounted on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
