That would be nice but I don't know how practical it will be to have so many objects that have to be rendered, unless they are able to do some sort of trigger to render when you approach the area to help out those with less capable PCs. Still, looking forward to seee what goodness the patch brings!

It would be nice if you could delete the hard coded object and then replace with the correct object in the right position smile

Leaves a lot of empty airfields smile Didnt even get started on Dover which was my next port of call so to speak. If you like i have heap of historical info, pics and maps, some very hard to come by of many of fields and surroundings... so then you can really bleed those eyes out wink

Hoping the patch may be of some help in this are as a full realistic map would be good as a base for campaigns and missions.


Due to some idiotic downloads on my part, I had to delete my c: drive. Without thinking, I grabbed all my controls and skins, but forgot my missions... the map is history. I will start again, but honestly, been having a lot of fun with the newer RoF stuff, and just waiting for the patch to come before I redo everything. I got 32GB of Osprey's history books, so I do have some info, but I'd love to trade sometime!

I also have a good plan now how to group and save objects, if I get off my lazy butt, I'll post some to Airwarfare.com. I've tried to recreate gun positions, and some grouped static aircraft, but will have to redo most of them.

I think I was close in your numbers, those damn sandbags and crates sure add a lot of objects without a real benefit (besides looks), but I hadn't had a crash that wasn't attributable to the general CTD, unless I switched cameras too fast.

You can save "groupings" of many different objects and just plop in the groupings in the FMB.

LOL, yes I know, but you have to create the first set! Also, in order to look more realistic, you have to tweak each pasted copy. It doesn't look right when every parked plane has the exact same setup around it, every car is the same color, every tank has the same unit markings, etc.

It's not "inverted". It's 'against the light' - the sun is hidden directly behind the Gladiator...

Had an exciting scare earlier, I've been playing with the dynamic campaign mod flying DiD and I've been fine so far, a couple close calls with flak hits to the windshield and wing, a couple botched landings but nothing serious.

Just flew a mission and I followed a BF110 up on a vertical climb, I dumped rounds into his cockpit, killing him but then he stalled and just barely nicked my wing on the way down, I went into a stall that didn't want to recover but still had control of the plane so I went after another 110, got him as well and started for home as my wingmen were battered, low on fuel and out of ammo. I stalled out and went into another spin, got out though and headed for home and put her down in the front lawn ;P

You say it is not inverted, I cannot read FCoA the way it is on the picture? Is it not inverted?

Then I recommend "Hurricane" by Leo McKistry. Just finished it. He explains how the Hurricane peaked with the Battle of Britain and was quickly obsolete within a year, but then was reborn as the Hurribomber and made a big impact in the Eastern and Africa theatres. Great read and avail as ebook too.

Now, back on topic. I am currently preparing a review of 'Wick vs Dundas' by Desastersoft for SimHQ. Check out these nice screenies from the package:

Lack of markings on static is a real pita.
