Dagger

OK during a flight thru the mountains I found this out..neg. Gs effect on pilots: and this is the view from the RIOs seat( I fly a Phantom):

I was in a shallow dive..no neg. Gs and I was low on the deck.I'm wondering if the MK-82 500lbs are snake eyes without the brakes but using their FM?I haven't tried that before but I will be tring it again,as I just read the MK-82 500LBs are the snake-eyes in the game and that the FM of the "snakes" makes it a bad thing to do to drop in a dive,shallow or not.

OK I was trying tio get some screen shots when I dove on a target I noticed the bombs came off the aircraft ok but they started falling up and over the plane...I'll try this again and this time I won't just sit and look at it I'll start running the camera.

By all means...any help is always appriciated.Also to automatically try to lock up your visual target the default keys are Shift-Insert.Also don't forget that terrain can mask your target,and alot of times once you lose visual contact you'll also lose radar lock. Also not about the radar but when you fire a Sidewinder don't forget these are REAR aspect missiles and WON'T track unless fired at a target from the rear..also they can be fooled by things like flares,and even the sun.

I guess I've been one of the lucky ones and haven't had any trouble,so far.But heres what I do before starting a game I reboot my system and close ALL back ground programs...my virus scan and everything is shut down. I do a defrag and scandisc about 2 times a week on my system,and make sure my drivers are up to date and NO beta drivers.This might help some of thte troubles I see people having...maybe

Just a wish for a mission editor where I can place my flight and other assets.and it would work for both single and multiplayer missions.My wish list is short...make the drag chutes work,make the snake eyes available,and add USMC and USN ranks to the campain :D . Other than that I'm pretty happy with things.

Dark_Knight I have a screen shot of the kill markings doing just what you said it should...one star has the number 10 in it.I think this will get you to it. http://buydagger.freewebspace.com/images/kills.jpg

give the team a chance to get things in order..I have faith they will do a great job.and I Think these are things we as a community can add...of course I could be wrong but graphics should be fixable by us,if not by them.

I have to add that MadJeff made a huge contribution to the artical..he added somethings I left out...So alot of the credit goes to him.

OK I thought I had a problem with my video card or something as I saw the topic "bolts"moving on some of the topics.So I just happened to notice the bottom of the page and WOW it's not my video card,it just says this is a popular topic.I gotta learn to read the instructions! DOH!! :casstet:

I'm in the process of makeing a radar tutorial..the radar is fairly simple so this won't take long..just a bunch of screen shots needed so I hope it will make things easy for everyone.If anybody has a close up of the radar screen that think would help let me know.

Hey Target..First off enjoyed the game at HL,Thanks. Yes it's not the key map but it's Shift+Esc for eject. just FYI if you fly a bomber then Ctrl+O opens the bomb bay doors.These can be remapped in the options section of the game.

yes the Falcon was an option..the rest I'm looking into files.

heres the way I do it...first once a target shows up then use the HOME button to select this target,You can increase the range to pick them up further away,then once you have your target selected then use the INSERT button to aquire and bracket the target.If your target is right off your nose I suggest using the boresight mode,give it a few mins to lock as the old radar isn't nearly as fast as that in other sims,ie. F4 and the Janes flight sims,but it's really a hoot.If the target won't bracket then try to close the range as this helps...I've had to close to 1.0 miles before it locks sometimes.The sidewinder is a heat seeker so radar isn't required for it..just a good tone and close range,you'll be just outside gun range for a heater. Oh yeah also remember that different planes have different radar capibilities,and modes.

Just a thought..not sure how they'd do it but will they ever add"snake-eye" to the load out? or am I just missing them?

I don't see them and looked for the loadout ini file to see if it was on there and just disabled but I don't see this,if you know where I can find this I will look and see if I can find these.

I'm not sure why but this thing is a hoot! It's slow and sluggish,but I guess most any plane would feel like that after flying the A-4,but I was curious and tried to see if I could fly them in MP so I clicked the MP button selected host then had most of the planes in the game ready for me to fly! Migs are fun,but C--130 is a beast and fun.a couple of points gear won't work and the flaps onced deployed won't retract. I also like the 0-1E Bird Dog.

Sundancer go to hyperlobby and fly.If theres a problem there then we can talk.I think hyperlobby will be a good place to try this.

Oh OK I see...np after seeing and thinking about it it makes sense.Thanks.

OK so how do I choose the new A/C to fly? sorry for all the questions and can I change the loadouts?

Thanks so what do I do to get the A-4 back? just make a back up copy of the file?

also hit the insert button to acquire the target. atfer you select it.also be sure your radar is in search or boresite mode..and I bring the range down. These are not fire and forget weapons so you have to keep your nose on your target.

It works in the FS sims just wondering if it works in SF:P1

Thanks...and I was going to try a to do an A-6.gotta be a way to do the side by side seating.
