you have to have 5 kills to be an ace not 4.

Is there any type of warning system for heatseekers? I guess that wouldn't be possible since IR missiles are passive.

What do you mean by switching cockpits?

When is this beast due for release? 2 weeks?

That's really nice photoshop work. Really makes the colors stand out.

Did they actually mount missiles on top of the wings? or is that just a clever way to get more pylons in game? I noticed that the jaguar has that also. Seems like a very odd thing to do.

Odd, my F-35 doesn't have any gun. I thought they forgot to add the missionized gunpod. Then again I maybe have fouled up the install as I always do.

Not sure what you mean. I have been watching this thread the whole time and have been anticipating its release.

Looks like its really coming together. This is going to be a great addon!

But they haven't had airships since the 30's. Why keep the same naming scheme?

How do they get V from fixed wing? I never understood the logic behind Navy Acronyms.

Well the air keeps getting thinner, but I don't think it ever totally disappears. Otherwise there would be a point where jet engines would stop working in the game, not matter how high you set the values in the data.ini.

I thought the X-29 was an F-5 and F-16 with FSW.

There have been at least 2 threads about just how high you can fly. With a heavily modded jet you can literally leave the game map and come back down. Space isn't simulated though. I messed around with the NF104 and got to around 300k feet. After that it got boring. on a related note, is there a way to get the data overlay to display true airspeed instead of IAS? That would come in handy when you get really high up because 20knots IAS at 300k doesn't tell me much.

I didn't have to do that when I tried out the MF pack. I just renamed my weapons folder and then installed the MF pack. it made a new pack and did the rest. I change the name of the weapons folder to bring the community pack back

The round thing is well known, that ruined many a pilot's day in WW1. But I don't think it's been an issue for a very long time. The other two are out of the pilot's hands unfortunately, and I don't think that they are modeled in Wo*

Sometimes I think the jamming is unrealistic. I understand jamming in heavy G's or negative G's, But I highly doubt they put cannon on aircraft that were prone to jamming in level flight. That's unacceptable performance by an measurement. Case in point the M2 doesn't jam often, she is a very reliable gun, one of the reasons we have used it for so long, so why does it jam when I and strafing targets and I'm not pulling any G's, positive or negative?

Earlier there was a post here about a mod to the default control scheme to add a gun unjam command. I have added it to both WoV and WoE, they are both patch to Oct '08. WoV works fine, I can unjam the guns with a few taps of the key, in WoE however nothing happens. I added the command the exact same way, I even made it read only so as not to undo it, but it still doesnt work.

I modified the aircraftobject.ini. That did the trick. Thanks!

Yeah I was thinking the same thing.

Where is the aircraftobject.ini? I checked in the objectdata.cat and didn't see it.

yeah odd isn't it. I wonder why it doesn't work in WoV, since the OCT '08 patch they are almost the same game system wise anyways.

In WoV I could use it on anything including the guns guns on the scooter and Mig-21.

The community pack has all of those to my knowledge. And yes, all radar guided missiles are handled the same in the pit. You lock on to the target with your radar and fire. The only difference is you can switch to a different target once you fired the amraam because it is active homing, it doesn't need the aircraft to guide it, the sparrow does.

I've decided that the community pack is better than the MF one. Mainly because the MF pack lacks Radar guided soviet AAMs.
