I would be like it if some kind of filecheck could be done so cheating would be harder. But i know that some would still cheat. I have honestly never understood why anyone would cheat in a computer game but nevertheless it has happend in all tha online games i have ever played. My solution has been to join a squad and fly with them. ... I have just been reading the latest threads on the subject. Carl/Stormin from Eagle Dynamics has promised that devs will take a look at it... Its hard to know what that means but he will probably let us now in time

I am using TS at the moment but i'm not sure i'm gonna stick with it. At the moment i'm trying to get some feedback on peoples different experiences with different programs in our new section General Software Chat !! :D ... this is our new place for discussing those programs that are not game specific

It goes into your trackIr software. I dont' know what the previous software versions are like, but in the version 3 and up: Go to the "motion" tab and enter the values at the the edit points... Starting from the middle

I tried the earlyer version.. I will check this one out one of the comming days

noproblem at all :D ...as i said lets leave it here for a little while anyway ;)

Hi Ruger This really belongs in the Virtual Squadron Chat but since most Lomac freaks will most likely check this forum more i'll leave it here for now... be adviced that i'll move it to the relevant forum within the next 48 hours Cheers, GhostDog

Hi For us lucky trackIr and trackIr2 owners, i'm sure that the fixed functionality of trackIr was the one thing we looked most forward to in the patch. The good news is that it actually works - and in true enhanced mode at that The bad news is that its not yet perfect. According to Jim Richardson from Naturalpoints the scaling was somehow messed up which makes the trackIr much faster than it was supposed to be: CLick here to go to the relevant thread on Naturalpoints forum. Most ppl have been able to get around this problem by turning the speed way down but some others still have issues. I have been in contact with some that had big troubles using trackIr #1 and the 2.12 beta drivers, but after unistalling those and installing the 3.03 drivers performance seem to be much better. Note: All drivers from v3.01 ver2 and up should be trackIr1 compatible. Hopefully they will fix the scaling in the next patch as well as sort out the conflict with using rotators for zoom

I don't think so but i can't say for certain.

My squad and I have been using TS for communications but i'm not particularly happy with it. Often the "transmissions" are so garbled as to be next to useless and even though this can from time to time add another dimension to communications i would rather do without this "feature". I would like to hear if anyone knows of a way to improve performance, ie by using other codecs etc.. or if not, i would very much like to hear of your experiences with Ventrillo or other comms software... Thanks in advance, GD

OK I just chekked the UBI campaign board and found a pretty recent update from Ross: Original thread I will try to follow his progress and post on it when there is any developments

Hey Jay Jay The dynamic campaign originaly planned for Lockon was dropped quite some time before release and the campaign that ships with the game is a scripted campaign. Last i heard, Ross MacGregor was still working on his Ares/Storm dynamic campaign engine so there is hope that it will eventually become a reality. He is working on it in some sort of understanding with Ubi/Eagle Dynamics allthough i'm not sure of the nature or extend of the collabaration. ASIK it will, when its done, be a pay-for addon to pay for his time and Ross has hinted that it won't be expensive.

If i can get to drive a tank i'm on - even though i still perfer the old WWii tanks... Just give me a heads-up so i'll have time to patch to the latest version of whatever you guys decide on

TRy experimenting with using different codecs as Cudaguy suggests - maybe that will solve your problems

Awesome

I followed a thread on the official Ubi boards with some interest. The thread was started by 169th_Ice who has been experimenting with different combinations of connection speeds. Here is what he wrote: Link to the original thread Some of the responses in the thread seems to confirm his finding but i don't think we will hear much on it since everything on the official boards are drowning in patch related topics. I will try to to experiment with this but i would be gratefull if some of you guys could check it out as well and post here on your findings. If this proves to be a good tip on improving MP sessions its i'll put it in the sticky on the top of the page. Hope to hear from you...

Both files shold go into the "C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Eagle Dynamics\Lock On\ME" folder. ... if you installed in the same dir as i. I havent checked to see wether it works with the patch though

I agree that a Tornado would be fun. *Oh those memories from the once state-of-the-art sim* I don't think i have ever heard that its an engine problem that keeps them from doing 2 seaters. As i understand it its more of a concern for realism allthough its very hard to get them (the devs) to say anything definate on these subjects

Thanks Zagnut' .. and yes its certainly nice with the trackIr fix. Now i have a quite a lot of fun figuring all the new bugs out :D but all in all the patch seems make good on most of the promises

Hi Wesair I'm still trying to figure it out myself. I have been able to code some short avi's with succes. When i try to record long missions (+5 min. <_< ) the avi looks very wierd for the first several minuttes and only gets good at the end. I will probably try to experiment some more with this over the next couple of days but so far the jury is still out on this one

sorry .. but what is teamspeak block? I DL'd the files but couldn't really find out what it was that it was supposed to do

I like the soft outline of number 5 and i can't help liking number 2 even though its harder to see what symbol it is

Ehhmmm.. I have both Nero and Deamon tools installed as i use them for work purposes and i managed to get the patch and game to work - albeit after much frustration. It seems that the most common reason that you get the "insert correct cd" bug is when you accidentaly installed the wrong patch. Ie. UK patch on english game or vice versa. This problem was confounded by Thunak accidentally switching the links for the patches which caused a lot of people to DL and install the wrong patch. Quoting Thunak: After reinstalling and grabbing the correct patch i got it to work and my bloodpressure is now falling again and approaching 4 digit numbers ;)

thanks ... both links are up on the front page

np... Thunak says its official though it wasn't released through proper channels. I was in doubt of wether to post this as a news item but since it is as Thunak says "out of the bag" there is really no reason not to. I have posted it as a news item along with Thunaks warning and we will update it with a fix for the "cd-detect" bug as soon as we get it ourselves
