I thought W is the waypoint "over the airfield" and it automatically switches to A after wingmen have joined you.

version 1.8.4
russian FLIR has now more zoom levels as stated in the readme but the LLLTV is set to maximum (128) and cannot be switched to another zoom level. Is this a bug or intention ? I think even normal optics can be set to a specific magnification. This is too bad when getting into LowLight conditions...

Thanx for all the works guys,

Same problem in the Comanche. It has been fixed in 1.9.

When using TrackIR two bugs happen:

Kiowa cockpit is zoomed back to maybe 140° wideview and outside the cockpit
Hokum Periscope is not working

I've had a fatal error on mine which said:
FILE_TAG: unrecognised tag DIAMOND

AUTOSAVE (autosave=5 # Autosave every n minutes or 0 not to autosave)


Online: it saves the files in the man map folder (not in to the "camp01...) and EECH crashes when you will open this autosave. (you can/must move "AUTOSAVE.sav,AUTOSAVE.SCH" manualy in the right CA folder...)


mby it is an old one..

Ok, I'll keep it plain and short.

I was hovering in the Hokum B. Suddenly I got a nasty heatseaker launched upon from a Comanche.
Dropped the nose to make speed and started dumping flares. The stinger went for the flare, but it went for the nearest flare causing it to do some damage at which point I hear: "Tailrotor damaged".
From that point on my rudder input had no effect. As far as I know, turning a Hokum is done by the mainrotors. (As it doesn't even have a tailrotor in the first place)

Don't know if this is mentioned before.

I also got "Tail rotor" damaged once on this chopper though in my case it didn't affect controls. But sounded pretty weird.

Well it did over here. So you can imagine how I had to land back at my base, banking and pulling the nose up is not what you want to do if you need to turn your helo without moving more than 5 meters :P

You could have landed airplane style. Just disengage wheel brakes and land as if it were an plane. Actually in real life choppers (at least Hind) can even take off that way. First you push the stick to gain speed and then pull it and fly.
