I don't understand your first sentence but OK. smile


I mean, i said before the shouldn't be a problem adding fixes with the performance patch, you said they prob couldn't because of coding.


The developer or BS said the patch would only be a performance patch. I said I understood why because they wouldn't want to introduce to many variables during fixing and testing the new code, but I hoped they would be able to introduce some fixes to the FM, AI, etc. I suppose since the patch took so long they were able to reduce the performance variables enough to add some AI etc fixes without over complicating the bug testing. There are no absolutes in this type of work and the developer can only guess how long it will take and what features will be ready to implement for any given patch.


Well, so far its good news Chivas, lets hope it continues with further patches.

I agree Furbs, this patch should make the sim playable for most users. This will mean they finally have the game engine working good enough it will only require tweaks. Now they will be able to concentrate on improving existing content, adding new content, and features for the series. This should be a much smoother and less time consuming process. The monies have to start rolling in soon to keep the bean counters, and investors at bay.

I really hope this patch works and doesn't fall flat on its face.

kft is one alternative standard measure of altitude in aeronautics (and also telecommunications).

While you might not like the 'style' of it, it is routinely used in NASA, and other documentation.

From a reference I have on hand:

"“The average wind speed (mph) and average relative humidity (10, 20, 30 (brown) and 70, 80, 90 (green) percent) for 0 to 1 kft above ground level (agl), 1 to 2 kft (agl), 2 to 3 kft (agl), 3 to 4 kft (agl), 4 to 5 kft (agl) and 5 to 6 kft (agl).”

Key to a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration diagram."

Thats a good question. It appears a third party is doing some of the work. We haven't seen much other than the IL-2, a few buildings, and some vehicles. BlackSix is supposed to be doing the campaign, but one of his posts sounded like not much work has been done on the campaign yet. But you know how weak some of the translations are. I'm guessing that the Sequel won't be out for six months to a year. That should be plenty of time for a patch or two for COD, with some features included that they might want the community to test for the Sequel.

No no, it caught my interest, I was just being a smart ass, sorry. I like it, and thanks for the information, very interesting

There is a group who insist that one should maintain purity of essence, avoiding the mixing of latin and greek terms in the naming of plants and animals, and the mixing of SI(modifiers) and imperial measures...

I think they are possibly also against the Fluoridation of the public water supply too wink
