I think we know some well connected people who might be able to make such a thing happen (cough GG cough). Any chance you could get the good folks at ED to make the maps available?

Sorry I haven't been more help lately GP- I've been at work. I'm home for the week so I'm hoping I'll be able to test this out. WC- if we get this up and running I'd like to add a block to your mission briefs that includes pertinent TS3 information and different server related info. That could of course include gameplan session information because I suspect that data wouldn't change day by day.

We'll keep working on it!

Maps for an external application? I think it's better if the person who wrote the application makes this request. ED appears to be trying to be mod-friendly, but I don't know how they'd feel about this.

In any case, you could also use an aeronautical chart as well.

Hmmm. So google maps sort of thing? Gp- what about that motion gps ap- that allows you to save the files of certain areas? Like google maps only different in that you can save areas so you don't actively have to download the data all the time

Again - up to the app developer. Google doesn't like their maps being used that way, AFAIK. It's up to whoever includes them to deal with the copyright issues.

Aeronautical maps are not google maps, though.

No but I know what you are saying. I'll see what I can drum up.

On that note sounds like the GP dev did approach ED and got no answer. My ambition was to see if someone we knew might be le to help push through the request is all. Was worth a try wink

Hi there. Sorry for the silence it's been a mad few days at a big LAN event where I had an exhibitor stand for GP.

I didn't mean I had asked ED. I meant that somebody else had sent me a map that a 3rd party had made up himself. I tried contacting the creator of that but no reply. I guess you guys might recognise it if I can mail it to you. Perhaps we can track down another way of contacting the creator that way?

I don't want to post it here without permission either.

We are looking at embedding custom Google map engine but it would still require source imagery.

I appreciate your help. I will try asking ED but I would still need advice on if the maps are useful to you guys as I have not played the game to a level where I know enough about what's what smile

I tried getting it through the motionx gps ap but it locks the maps you save on the iPad-near as I can tell. I went to the black sea region and it was all there. Saved my map hoping to copy it and no luck.

Okay quick question...

Basically- I'm quite proud to have put my big boy pants on and am now more comfortable doing the cold starts. In fact, it's kind of nice to start developing familiarity with the process. I went through watching a guy on youtube doing his fastest start (still an 8 minute vid) and was able to call out each step. I know- nothing major but a big step for a bear with very little brain!

On that note- one thing I'm noticing is for some reason when I'm in a warm pit- when I use my "select" up / down button by the scratch pad I can switch weapon systems... However when I am configuring my own pit when I click that it doesn't seem attached to any particular system- I actually have to switch over to the dsms and select the points I want. And then, I seem to recall in one mission when I did this it reverted back to the "default" settings and not those I'd properly adjusted through the DSMS profile setting method.


Anyway- I'm pretty sure there is just some subtle setting I need to switch over to regain my functionality... and I was hoping maybe someone could shout it out!

I'm trying to figure out what connection I might be missing between the two?

What was the master mode you started out in, in both cases?
What was the position of the Master Arm switch?
