DH5 Pilots: Hey, where'd my upper wing g...oh...

With the new version, it would be nice if radiator control was implemented. We already have the nice moving louvers, would be sweet if they did something! In that same vein, it seems that mixture controls are a little under implemented. I can lean mixture after takeoff and the it seems like I don't really have to touch it for the next 10000 feet or so. That doesn't seem to be right? Maybe have it impact engine performance a bit more during the climb and descent if possible?

We recommend the ale but, sorry to say it, the new guy buys...

Don't forget to back it up with your order number somewhere safe!

Hey grinningmonk, make sure to send an email to the WOFF support from their site, they can probably help. Keep in mind they are on GMT, I believe, so they may respond at weird times compared to where you are. Good luck, hope you are sorted out quickly!

Jasta #27. #1!

Lucky #17?

Sweet 16 and never shot down...

The fifteenth!

Thank you! We know we helped the war effort!

14th time unto the breach!

Lucky number 13! That was a fun little run!

#12(!) #11 was good, but YouTube couldn't process the video, which I had never seen happen before, so I had deleted it before I noticed!

Heh, nice! I was totally expecting a Black Adder clip!

Glad you are having a good time! This is the one game (maybe ARMA too) that always seems to keep me coming back!

To the best of my knowledge, no. But then real WWI pilots really didn't have much impact on the overall war anywhere other than intelligence gathering and propaganda. So the Red Baron was of psychological significance to the high command but he didn't have much influence at the ground level. While I remember a few bombing raids that did some damage, I think in general the payloads of the planes and the accuracy of their drops were just too limited to account for much. In game terms, the sim would have to pass damage values to the shell program at the end of the mission which would then have to add that into the next mission. Additionally, there would have to be some way to keep track of time individually for each damaged airfield or factory so that they could repair over time. I'm pretty sure none of this is being done now, but who knows with the new version?

Up to #10 with the naval guy!

The 9th iteration...

Sorry to hear about your latest news, Raine. I have always delighted on reading your reports when I wandered into the DiD thread. I know you are a huge WOFF fan, but have you considered some coop gunnery work with someone in another sim? The controller demand would be less and when my buddy and I play FC, the coop-ness of it almost makes up for the AI and other weaknesses. Might be worth a look? Best wishes, RR

The baker's lucky #7

7th Triplane run!

Here's Mission #6

Man, nobody's even giving you a perfunctory "Two weeks"? Ok, "Two weeks!"

The calm after the storm... I missed #4 on here, I guess??

Third time up in the triplane!
