+RAVEN Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 It's looking like the flap is linked to the spinner or a extra animation key? (Did that to the Hurri keyed the prop to the canopy by mistake). Quote
macelena Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 a TK fix for the ailerons or the same community fix after the last patch? TW fix, thankfully they got it right. My fav DLC to be honest. Quote
Z09SS Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 Well, did a clean install and patched it to July-13. Got the Starfighters flyable and no problems. I did remind myself that I loathe the F-100 in campaign. Quote
regula50 Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 Yes, some problems there. The MiG-17 Fresco A that freeze also always in the loadout screen. One time that work, the next time that freeze the Sim. Quote
Gunrunner Posted July 10, 2013 Posted July 10, 2013 (edited) For those interested, you can reinstall up to May 2013 and use the DLC and CAT files of July 2013 without any adverse effect, I haven't tested with July 2012 engine and July 2013 data though. It seems a good compromise between the engine stability and the data improvements. Of course for modded installs, all planes using stock LODs will have to have their data.ini upgraded because quite a few node names and hierarchies have been modified.

SFP1Ace Posted July 10, 2013 Posted July 10, 2013 (edited) For me, using the autoupdater, the download was 31 MB. (May 2013 -> Jul 2013 EDIT: Oh, boy!, Looks like TK's minor tweaks to improve performance = butchering toning down the damage model. Just look at the F-14 Data.ini - now F-14 uses F15 damaged LOD, bunch of damage node related entries have been erased....I hope I'm wrong on this... On the other hand broken off surfaces leave sticking out struts which I don't recall happening, say, a year ago... so perhaps Is I should eat my hat? O_o Edited July 10, 2013 by SFP1Ace Quote

O_o It's just the F-14 which was probably a mistake, other planes(even AI) have the entries right where they were Quote
SFP1Ace Posted July 10, 2013 Posted July 10, 2013 Nah, when I put back the reference for F14 destroyed lod in data.ini, no wreckage appeared when I crashed the Tomcat. Anyway F-15 wreck is close enough shape-wise to let it pass... :] Quote
+Wrench Posted July 10, 2013 Posted July 10, 2013 a "destroyed model" is quite different from "damage nodes" of the aircraft's main lod the destroyed model is the dead bird burning on the ground Quote
SFP1Ace Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 (edited) Yup, it was late night & I confused myself about Brain's post XD. Apart from the replaced destroyed.lod for the tomcat, all else seem fine or even better ;] Actually I'm gonna reinstall WoE at oct 2008 patch level just to check the damage modeling on phantoms for comparison with what we have now.

arthur666 Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 (edited) The hotfix seems to work. Fired up custom campaign (Buccaneer/Ark Royal/Iceland), got BSD before, now it works, but I've only had time to try one mission so far. Will test further... Hotfix on page 3 ---> http://bbs.thirdwire.com/phpBB3w/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=9536&p=60122#p60122 EDIT: Pffft - Ok, another mission, and i didn't get the BSD. My machine just locked up and restarted. Grrrrrrrrr..... Edited July 15, 2013 by arthur666 Quote
Snailman Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 Oh my God what I missed while I was away))) Well, I am about to install a fresh new game on my recently bought laptop... is it a good idea to put up this patch at all or shall I stick to the jul 2012 ver? Also, if I can help with testing things, and experimenting with the install I can do it... UNTIL I reinstall my own mods of course. I have win 8 and dirx 11, I am quite nervous whether it will run correctly.. Quote

I had too many crashes with mods and the latest patch. i will probably revert when i get some free time, or hopefully a new patch will be out. YMMV... Quote
