---------------------------------------------------------------------
ANTI-CHEATING MEASURES
To prevent cheating by exploiting altered visibility range settings in the graphics.cfg file, the the \Config\ServerGraphics.cfg has been created. Some parameters of graphics.cfg are exported to this file, which is included in the file integrity check system for online play. If the file contents on the client machine differ from the host’s, the client will not be able to connect.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
FLIGHT MODEL CHANGES
+ Fixed an error in the F-15 polar curves that had caused a reduction in time required to achieve sustained turn rate at reduced speeds.
+ For the A-10 and F-15, added automatic flaps extension/retraction based on indicated airspeed when the flaps are set in the “down” position in the cockpit.
+ For the Su-27 and Su-33, adjusted the flaperon mechanization logic (the indicator will blink while the flaperon is adjusting depression angles – this is not a bug).
+ MiG-29 flaps will move with the wind force.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
ERROR PROBABILITY FOR RADAR-GUIDED MISSILES ON LOW ALTITUDE
Increased the error probability for radar-guided missiles (ARH, SARH, radio-command guided) based on altitude above ground. Currently the error probability increases from 300 meters to 0. Maximum error probability is at ground level for a target with minimum radial velocity. Error probability is reduced as radial velocity increases to 500 km/h. Above 500 km/h, error probability is minimal regardless of altitude.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
TRACK IR
For proper functionality, TrackIR software needs to be update via the “Check for Game Updates” command in the TrackIR software.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
FAQ
Q: Upon mission start, the game does no respond to commands and does no unpause. Some buttons do not work, I am unable to save and restore a control profile.
A: Most likely your system has either PuntoSwitcher or NewView software installed. Add the simulation executables (launcher.exe and simulator.exe) to PuntoSwitcher exceptions or stop the program while running the game. For NewView, you will need to rename the working NewView folder prior to starting Flaming Cliffs 2.Download: http://lockon.co.uk/index.php?end_pos=2539&scr=products

Good to see this support from ED fairly soon after release (as opposed to the day after release, which seems to happen with FPS games fairly often. Makes me think they already knew about many flaws but released it anyway?).
Any word on the compatability patch for Black Shark? The release notes refer to "simultaneous running" of Black Shark and FC2 now possible on one computer. But that doesn't sound like multiplayer compatibility yet.

It means you can run Black Shark and FC2 at the same time not together......
Thats interesting too maybe we'll be able to have the editor in one app open and can test the mission in the other. Very cool, now we just need that BS patch to tie everything up together, can(t) wait!
I've got a bad feeling about this.....

Makes me think they already knew about many flaws but released it anyway?). Let's step back from the keyboard a few seconds... Why do software companies that release shrink-wrapped products on dvd:s that are shipped with covers and manuals that are available the same day in retail stores around whole countries release zero-day patches? Why do we then see zero day patches from the publishers of monster budget titles like "Modern Warfare 2" and not from small russian developers?  /Mazex

And most of us have to reinstall LOMAC all over again due to the mods. Damn! Did anybody try to install the patch over a modified version? Maybe it works and all you have to do is to reinstall the mods which have been effected by the patch?

John, are you asking whether to remove any mods prior to patching? Yes. Assuming you always use mod man to install mods, this is simple and is quickly done. Don't run a patch over a modded install, period. Remove all the mods.I believe the patch readme discusses this.

Okay. Yes, i use modman. I thought that when you simply patch over the modded install,you start modman and see, which mods are red, i.e. have been overwritten and reinstall them.

Good to have used modman. But no, you want to uninstall all mods so that you have a fully clean install of the program. Then should work fine.
