How to test if my kills are being registered?
Olham replied to Javito1986's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
Yep, correct - I forgot that one. Happened to me too - but as you say; not so often. -
Hihihi - here you are, Javito - never insult battle proven pilots! Well, actually, the "E" key is the more practical variant, but I understand, that you want to simulate the whole process more, I guess; and I tell you what - I'll try it next time, just to have done it. (I don't believe though I'd remember it in trouble - I'd have to stick a copy to my instrument board).

Just found this photo here in the website "Flieger-Album": http://flieger-album...s_id=view&s=187 About the city arms of Würzburg under the cockpit, Rainer Anton comments on that blog: Kommentar : 4 von raineranton erstellt am : 26.02.2011 23:20 "Walter Böning hatte keinen Bezug zu Würzburg. Es handelt sich bei dem Flugzeug aber um die Ex-Maschine von Böning. Böning gab die Maschine dann an Karl Hopf weiter, welcher gebürtig aus Würzburg stammte. Hopf bemalte die Maschine zusätzlich mit dem Stadtwappen seiner Heimatstadt." "Walter Boening had no connection to Wuerzburg. But this was the ex-aircraft of Boening. Boening passed the craft on to Karl Hopf, who was born in Wuerzburg. Hopf painted the additional city arms of his hometown on the craft." I had read somewhere, that it was not clear, if this was Böning's Albatros. The "Flieger-Album" blog seems to have cleared that. It is a great website anyway - go there and check it out, chaps.

Why do I see ace skins, when using HPW's FM mods?
Olham replied to Olham's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
Nope - I don't have your problems, guys - for me it is working fine, without all that circumstance. Mmuahahahahahahahahaaaaaaa!!!!! By the way - your FM for the D.V is great. She is heavier in the controls, but also feels stronger. Next I'll test her at high altitude. -

Well, I am flying OFF for some years now, and saw these situations: A. I have wingmen around me and make a kill - and get a claims form B. I had wingmen with me, but got driven away from them so far that I can't see them any more; I made a kill - but either get no claims form, or the form comes up, but the claim is getting rated as "Erroneus" C: I make the first kill with wingmen near me, and later a second, with no one near - I get a claim form and can fill in the first kill; but when I fill in the second, it is rated "Erroneus". After deleting the second line, the claim is accepted To me, that indicates, that the OFF Manager is well aware of my company. -

A guaranteed fix for using Aces skins and HPW FM's
Olham replied to Panama Red's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
Herr Prop-Wasche, I just had this idea: What would happen, if one would move all the ace skins into the MODS folder and activate them there? . -

Congrats, old chap! A job is hard to get in these times - keep the foot in door, m8!

Gaw, the idea of compiling a new "Tips & Cheats" sticky is a good one, but everyone seems to be either in the holidays still, or too busy with work & family. As for the BOC membership: go to the BOC thread here: http://combatace.com/topic/66089-the-barmy-offers-club/page__view__findpost__p__507458 ...and select at least four of the points you can agree with, or you may even write new ones. Do that in the same thread, and I'm sure we will regard you as "barmy enough" to give you the badge, Sir.

Olham replied to Javito1986's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
Guys, Herr Prop-Wasche and also Winder are already aware of this, and seeking for a workaround. As it is now, the new FM and DM are still great. You just need to shoot a wing of the damn flamers to bring them really down. The claim file does not come up, when a) the craft never crashed b) when you have no witnesses near you -
Why do I see ace skins, when using HPW's FM mods?
Olham replied to Olham's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
It's weird - I made several attempts to provoke the "Error Messages" again, but they didn't come anymore. First I tried to remove the mods, started the sim, went into the briefing, left the sim again, activated the mods, and restarted the sim. I got normal briefings/flight paths now, and no messages. The I removed the mods, re-started Windows, and then repeated the above. But nothing. It just works now. Sorry - I wish I had made a screen print. -

Olham replied to Olham's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
They were from OFF or CFS3. Unfortunately, I didn't make a screenshot. But perhaps I can provoke them to happen again. Would you like to see them? -
I don't know the answer, why I get the ace skins, but I can describe, what I did. After activating the mods, I got two error messages. When I ignored those and went on to the "Briefing" menue, I got a mission with an idiotic flight path (to Wales). So I didn't use it, but I pressed "Advance time" instead. The next mission I got was looking normal, and so pressed "Go to field". There I found the ace skins were used. Now I guessed, that the mods might not work, but I'm pretty sure they did, cause I have flown the Albatros D.V a lot recently, and now it felt really different. It seemed was quite a bit heavier in the controls, but appeared somehow stronger. (I have yet to take her to high altitudes to see, how she is there).

Thank you for those fine mods - they came just right for today's flights, elephant!
-
I will report later, but I can now say, that I am getting your FMs and the ace skins, Herr Prop-Wasche.

Oh, the Joys of being an "Unknown Airman"

My JSGME is Version v2.2.0.120 - maybe an old version? -

Thanks, elephant! I like your "moving pictures" - ah, it's always good to see Albatros in action! -
The best tricks are often the simplest - good one, Hellshade!

Winder, I heard from JFM, that "Cliffs of Dover" still is a drag. The fraps go underground, the lower you fly - because of the detailed scenery surely. I believe you, that you could build much more complex trees. But that is perhaps something for the SIMS, when they plant a park there. In a flight sim, it would be rather counter-productive to enjoy brilliant trees on the cost of frame rates.

A joyride in superb weather - and a fight, which ended with the forced landing of my opponent at Chery-les-Pouilly airfield. Not just anywhere in the green - no, on a real airfield! That was fun! -
Chiseled on a gravestone, it is rather a sad thing to see, but alive in OFF, it can be a great joy: to be an unknown airman yet. For doing some testing of Herr Prop-Wasche's FM and DM mods, I didn't want to risk a veteran pilot of mine, and chose the young Feldwebel Mahlo at Jasta 14, in April 1917. Weather was a dream - in April! - and our flying took place in a great scenery (thanks again, Winder - you're like God's own Gardener in OFF!). Even when we got under attack, I felt easy and took it in a sportive way - I was just not burdened by the many hours and achievements my more "serious" pilot would risk. Herr Prop-Wasche's DM is really great - it took me quite some time to bring down my opponent, and I guess, I had some help from the Flak. Combined with Creaghorn's hard to see tracers, it was so much more of a real dog- fight; the French was winding and squirming like a toad; and as long as I didn't hit any vital parts or the pilot, he would fly on. Well done, HPW - very good! Herr Prop-Wasche's FM was not yet very noticible for myself in the Albatros D.II - maybe there were only minor changes made? - but I saw, that the Nieuport behaved quite different. The French didn't simply fall down like a tumbling leaf, when he was finished, nor did he perform that "tail-first" sinking to the deck. He actually even landed his smoking craft with a left wing tip missing! I couldn't shoot at him anymore after all the damage and was very happy, when he landed at Chery- les-Pouilly airfield (yes, he really landed on the field; not just in a landscape!). Unfortunately he crashed into a tent and blew up - maybe it was his final strike on us? I will continue the testing; it is very convincing so far. What is most funny - after re-installing JSGME Mod Enabler, my ACE SKINS DO ALL SHOW! More later on.

It isn't comforting to find out, that the "error" is most often the bloke in front of the monitor...
