I`ve discoverd a big bug ... when you fly the B and J of the F-8 crusaders they seem to be done in a very evil way... cause .. i don`t know this is a special kind of addon.... damn why do make such things with such an impact on my time management!!! Damn

 

Good work like always!!!

Uh-oh, what seems to be the trouble?

[Badfrank]

Ok. I speaking about the Nose numbers.

 

For the VF-33

List says 100 to 111

 

But the decals are 200 to 211

 

 

 

for the VMF-215

List says 100 to 116

 

But the decals are 0 to 15

OK, we will put it on the bug list. The problem is with the list--the decals that are displaying are the ones we intended.

[+Crusader]

the names/designations in the list are for the player only, to help with selecting individual numbers. They dont have to be going from 01 to 99 or whatever, I can put any garbadge in it. The game reads all info it needs directly from the decal ini and available tga's it calls for.

I know...

 

If i select at the loadout screen no 105 the Plane ingame should wear also no 105.

If it shows 205 something is wrong...

 

 

 

I don´t want to make a big deal about it, i only want to report it...

Except in this case 205 is correct...we just need to update the numbers.lst with 2xx series numbers.

Hey I noticed a potential bug in a few of the F-8's (B, D, E) - at least what I think is a bug.

 

The starboard side "Y" rails for Sidewinders appear to be the same as the port side rails, but on upside-down. I'm not sure if this is deliberate because of historical accuracy, or if this is a model glitch.

 

I'm using WOI, with the latest patch, TMF Weaps pack May '08, in Vista.

 

I have not yet been able to locate another thread that touches this topic, or a good picture to show if my suspicions are correct. Though, it would seem that symmetry would be correct and the the launch rails on both sides of the fuselage should mirror each other across the width of the aircraft.

 

Anyone know if this is deliberate? If not, can you point me to a fix, or suggest a course of action? Thanks.

 

Otherwise, I love driving the Gator. Completely kick-ass jet. Excellent job overall.

I'll repost this in its own thread. I don't think its getting the visibility here.

Thanks to the Mirage Factory crew. Sweet! I haven't noticed the minor problems pointed out by more qualified observers in this column since I was screaming over the top of a vertical yo-yo with a MiG-17. I won, he lost................great jet!!!!!!!!!
