UK_Widowmaker 571 Posted April 8, 2011 (edited) When I attack trucks these days (namely since HITR I believe)... I am dissapointed to not see any form of pyrotechnics whatsoever. Now, I know the 'Got to have total realism brigade' have made their point...and we have less fires and explosions...but please Devs...at least allow us some fireworks when we hit a truck!...it just goes from a truck, to a burnt out shell now...It's ages since I saw one explode...I dont even bother to attack them any more, can we see more fireworks in P4?....thanks Edited April 8, 2011 by UK_Widowmaker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slartibartfast 153 Posted April 8, 2011 Must admit would be nice as sometimes those trucks are loaded with things that go bang in a big way... And WM you would fly for anyone if they provided the plane... you would pay for your own bullets and gas... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hasse Wind 46 Posted April 8, 2011 Not every truck and car should explode, but if some of them are carrying fuel and ammo, then an explosion is definitely expected. Where did you get those Finnish and Russian skins? Did you make them yourself, or are they someone else's? Here's a photo of a Finnish Fokker D.VII with skis: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UK_Widowmaker 571 Posted April 8, 2011 Nice work, Widowmaker. Thank you...I think they're available in the D/L section somewhere..but it was a Long time ago...I did two DVII's a Russian Camel and RE8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UK_Widowmaker 571 Posted April 8, 2011 I do think something is dreadfully amiss in your settings, while it's true that trucks loaded with bread and toilet paper only burn, if that. The occasional load of arrty shells will explode in a rather big way, my biggest concern is them finding my wallet at the bottom of a large smoking hole, because I was too close to said truck when it went Ground Objects Density on High in Workshop . . . . and Effects Slider on 5 Or maybe you're running one too many mods Thanks Unc...I'll have a look Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tranquillo 10 Posted April 8, 2011 I think you may be right, WM. I hit this truck full of Schnapps before I got HITR but don't recall seeing it like this since. I've got no mods at the moment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UK_Widowmaker 571 Posted April 8, 2011 yep Tranquillo... HITR has killed it!...I am on full effects...did a mission attacking trucks...no explosions at all! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shiloh 12 Posted April 8, 2011 yep Tranquillo... HITR has killed it!...I am on full effects...did a mission attacking trucks...no explosions at all! In knew we could find a way to blame this on the Americans. Nice skins by the way on those first pics. I thought I saw something in the general help section with a tutorial on how to do that in Photoshop? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tranquillo 10 Posted April 8, 2011 yep Tranquillo... HITR has killed it!...I am on full effects...did a mission attacking trucks...no explosions at all! Yeh, just tried it. Just a burnt out shell without the fire. I agree with you, we would like this back please, devs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Javito1986 14 Posted April 8, 2011 (edited) Could make it optional. Or better yet, random. 20% of drunks blow up EDIT: Meant trucks, but the typo is funny and Freudian so I'm leaving it Edited April 8, 2011 by Javito1986 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lewie 7 Posted April 9, 2011 If you don't watch the ground when you strafe you will definitely, Did that this morning with my 3rd RFC 22 pilot. Don't get into ground target fixation, it's a killer. ( but the resulting explosion is pretty.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikeDixonUK 5 Posted April 9, 2011 (edited) Ah yes, ground target fixation! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETl_rr0SMFI Very dangerous! Edited April 9, 2011 by MikeDixonUK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olham 164 Posted April 9, 2011 When I attack trucks these days (namely since HITR I believe)... I am dissapointed to not see any form of pyrotechnics whatsoever. Just attack an ammunition truck, and it WILL explode. I'm pretty sure I saw that long after getting HitR. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
