Ah, so Hawkinge is called Hawk now? :)

I still need to get into Teamspeak. Don't even know how to use the in-game chat. Is there one? - Pointers please...

Aloha!

Again another nice vid! It was very funny, because it reflected more or less my first times in an online sortie- short but intensive! ;-)

Keep on! I`m also flying emils and maybe we`ll take of from the same inauspicious spot (like i always do as well!)

Salut,
Rince!

nice vid !

S!

Mr.X flew many times on ATAG.

Why was my thread moved to the multiplayer forum? Nobody visits in here...

This thread is not about multiplayer but about a movie I made. Pls move it back moderators.

OK, my movie posting was moved into the multiplayer forum where absolutely nobody will see it, of course... Please move it back moderators. The thread wasn't about multiplayer but about a movie I made.

Here's a slight revision of the Single Player Quick Mission: "Dogfight - Even" with twice the number of fighters (12 against 12), which I find makes for an endlessly entertaining time (and has helped improve my flying tremendously... though my gunnery leaves a bit to be desired... I'm very new to flight sims). I've included the mission and briefing files below for anyone that would like to fly it (drop them in your: Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\missions\Single folder). All AI is set to "Veteran".

The videos are recorded from a track of a mission flown with full realism. My video settings are: Detail Level - High (plus Visual Effects increased to High); AA @ 8x; SSAO, VSync, Grass, Shadows, Roads: On; Antiepilepsy Filter: Off, Resolution: 1920x1080. My hardware is listed in my signature.

The first video is an external view made exclusively with "External Flyby" and the second video is cockpit view from the same track with TrackIR (watch for the close encounters at 2:10 in each video).

Hi.
Why do not shake your head (your plane) when you shoot with 20mm...?
Which server was it? Which settings?

I only recently began voice chat and trust me, it makes a world of a difference.

Thanks to all the comments!
Ballistics:
E4! I think everyone knows that the game is messed up vertically and horizontally for?
I put in the game: vertical 150 horizontal 500 (this is on the wings), machine guns - 400
I fly on Atagi and Repka

Yes, I tried it with Il2 Classic.... True, big difference, but also with some jarring ahistorical moments...

Thanks for your comments!

I, for one, did not know that :grin:

No I didn't know Mr. X, thanks for the info.

S!

Thank you Mr.X for the input :) See you in the skies!

Wow, thanks! If only all OT were like that :)

Be very careful you do not land in the middle of a scramble.

Nice vid! That Spit's 3rd go at you got lucky, but you denied him the "kill" credit with that excellent forced landing despite being severely wounded. :)

Nice to see you hopping online Frey. Good video as well ;)

Hopefully you'll join us on TS one of these days. It makes a world of difference!

perfect showcase: 4:36s the spit's upon him and he's looking it's direction, and even if you pause it's almost impossible to spot the damn plane! this just can't be a true display of the real life situation! something should be done, even adding bloom effect to damn fighters would be more realistic... no don't do that. but almost....

I'm curious about the zoom onto the wheeled artillery piece at minute 1:20 in your video .. I assume you are using TrackIR (or maybe FreeTrack)?

How did you get that kind of zoom?

Is it just z-axis movement (moving head towards the monitor)? If so, I would love a copy of your TrackIR profile, as I am unable to reproduce that effect.

If not, I would still love to know how you did it.

In any case, I enjoyed the video...

Always glad to help!
I decided to fly the red ... This means that you will soon see a new video.

hey MK.Mr.X!
i like your vids!great shooting.and as i now see you on this forum, i can thank you for the good fight we had yesterday on atag server!it was really tense and you knew how to fly your hurri!fortunately i was the lucky one who survived the head on head pass and could get a few shots on your canopy.btw my pilotname is davidred...maybe you remember the fight?there was a spit i was fighting as well as you sneaked on my six and got a few bullets on my crate and injured my pilot....good fight pal, good fight!

Yes, I remember!))
Mastering Hurrikeyn.Very strong machine.
Flying on Hurrikeyne, I see a lot of mistakes in blue.
See you in heaven!;)

Many mistakes, such as turn-fighting with a 109 ... you see a lot of this.

S!

Do not take the easy path of flying RED dear Mr.X ;) :D Just kidding, just have to be extra careful from now on ;)

I don't think that Spitfire would have survived that attack, it looks like he bounced off the runway. Very exciting to be on an airfield during an air raid is very exiting

Ah, this is where the moderators put my thread.... - Yup, well hidden away so nobody will see it. Well done. I guess the moderators really don't want me to be posting any of my future vids on this site. Wonder what I did to bother them?

Smurf, I set one of my joystick buttons so that when I hold it down I can zoom in and out with mouse movement. It is in the key command section of CoD somewhere.

Thanks for the info

Why do they even bother, I wonder...

Anyway, I post my movies on ubi and simhq, so you'll find them there.

ah ok,bandit_astronaut now i know who you are,... a really hard oponent! its true what you are saying about the hurri...it is competent against the 109s....i had the hardest times against hurris and not the spits.if you have equal energie and fly disciplined, you dont have to fear a spits, whereas hurris are a real threat.

I also have problems with this.
Tip!One flight, one record!!!;)

Ok, start a MrX thread already...This is the CoD video thread !

Yup posts removed..................

Lets stick to CoD vids and relevant discussion plz.


If you put in here in the first place there wouldn't be a problem.

Suggestion to moderators about the video thread
 

Hello all,

I don't know why the moderators decided to move the "CoD videos" stickie to the CoD Multiplayer forum, but I must say that it think it is a very bad idea. It is evident that only a limited group of CoD simmers play multiplayer: just see how few are online at any given time. A lot more people are interested in watching CoD movies, but they don't visit the Multiplayer forum, so they are losing out on the videos altogether. Also, videos are about many many different aspects of the sim, and not just about flying online.

So, please put the video thread back into the main forum. The efforts to shoehorn discussions into frankly rather weird places are counterproductive. This sim has problems enough getting exposure, I don't see why the moderators should make it even more difficult for fans to read about what interests them.

I always put a link to my video postings in this thread.

Putting the video thread here in the Multiplayer forum is just a surefire way to make sure nobody comes to see the videos.

I really think the "housekeeping" of these threads has gone a bit overboard. Maybe just let people post a bit more freely?

+1.. Let's keep movies mainstream !

I realise why you would want it back here and I agree to a point, but a fair compromise would be to have a sub-forum entitles "CoD Movie Making and Movie Vault"

That way it's highlighted where information about movie-making will be as-well as being a good archive to see videos?

Cheers, MP

I can agree with the idea of a dedicated movie forum, if they absolutely cannot go into the main forum.

In general I find that these many sub-forums are a bad idea. They haven't worked elsewhere (witness the earlier RoF forums) and they don't do much good here either...

IIRC you requested none of your videos were moved into CoD video thread like everyone else usually does as you wanted your own separated video comments and forum following.

As far as cleaning this thread up as I have due to members arguing and going of topic with accusations of cheating, its a video thread lets keep it that way.

Also

Not sure who put it in Multiplayer as a stickie but I've moved it back on to the main board.

If it ends up back in there its not by me.

Yes, I very much prefer to have my own little thread, because I often have some nice exchanges going about my videos. Those exchanges are actually a major reason why I keep making them.

But I always post a link to my thread from the "CoD Video"-thread.

As a matter of fact there'll be a new video up in a few moments...

Good day to you all :)

As promised, new video:

A snippit from ATAG Server
 

Posted this in the wrong spot this morning so I apologize.

This is not Winston Churchill talking. If you're a WWII history buff you will know right away whose creepy voice this is...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFNWf0Yuhko

That would be William Joyce I'd say.;)

ah, the infamous Lord Haw-haw?

Fantastic!!! You are correct! Both of you!

Nice idea for background audio! Apart from that I feel there is a bit too little going on in the video in the first half of it. And I'd suggest to close the text windows for immersion.

Well my apologies but my goal isn't to make a cinematic masterpiece but give a feel for actual online play for the many lurkers that are curious about it.

Yes sometimes one can classify it as "boring" but that is realism. Not everyone is thrilled about start-up procedure and flight times to find something to do but this is just a snippet of real time online play. Which I do every day. I haven't played single player since finding online play. The windows are there because I am recording live not playback - requires waaaaaay too much time. Just roll it live and capture it be it good or bad. I offer any footage to anyone that scores a kill against me anytime. I just expect the same in return. That's how gentlemen are.

I'll leave cinematic masterpieces to BarFly. :)

Thanks!
NOW GET IN LINE! :) I am always towing a couple of reds behind me. lol

Hello!
Many people say, flying the red, it's hard to kill the pilot.
In the video we see that this is not so ...;)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZczgdRRdGV8

Lol it's not getting any better X :(:confused:

Negative G is your friend!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0IEE1dk3hM

You are right.

It's not difficult at all. Actually, most of the time, you injure or kill the guy in a 109 even from dead 6 o'clock. The .303 are actually very effective and I rarely need to repeat my attack. Short burst and he's done with pieces falling off (usually rudder or flaps), water and fuel leaking, often the fuel tank bursts into flames (unfortunately only visual effect unless you see black smoke, too), but most of the time I bet the pilot sees red and has got great trouble seeing you.

From your flying at ATAG, it's clear you're a very good pilot and shot, but your K/D ratio is on as favourable as it was on a 109. RAF is very challenging to fly against good 109 pilot, don't you agree? ;)

agree!

What a BS :confused:

Never in any case .303 hve to be effective and it is well implemented here.

Step off guys of your auto satisfaction mode. We wld hev a chance to push this game frwd.

Ye gads not a .303 are porked whine ........

Wait till the .50 arrives at least before starting my ammo is porked fest.

:rolleyes:

As with all ammo convergence is the key to getting results, you can sit behind your enemy firing till all belts are out,
without correct convergence and aiming you are wasting your time.



.

Nope, just Chuck Testa. :o

Ok: the .303 CAN be very effective when used right. What Alpha said - convergence is the key. What I described was BnZ attack in a Hurricane against a 109, I really rarely have to repeat as that guy is finished and very often injured. It's more difficult against bigger and better armoured targets, but 109 is not a problem if you manage to get close enough.

Many pilots (not just me, there are far better shot than myself btw) can get any Axis bomber in one pass. If you hit a He or Ju in the right spot from the right distance => wing off.

The convergence factor is way overrated here IMHO especially with the 109 guns. This is obvious if you aim at a slightly offsetted target (like from low 6 for ex) when the aiming point is off the plane.

But we were talking Hurricanes and Spitfires here. :grin:

Are you questioning my "On topic" convergence ?:grin:

Your plane seems to fly on a rail. With my G940 the plane shakes like crazy, no matter how i trim it. What joystick do you use?

Yes.

Mr.X: look it's possible to do lots of damage and kill 109 pilots with .303 (flying RAF)
Robo.: yeah I agree they're very effective
Tomcavip: BS!
Alpha: No BS when you shoot at convergence
Robo.: No BS when you shoot at convergence
Tomcatvip: convergence is overrated, esp. on 109s
Everybody: :rolleyes:

LOL

Highly biased but fair enough ;)

~S!

S! Ment as a joke of course ;)

What was not funny is how you accused me of cheating after I happened to shot you down on ATAG this afternoon. Just what I spoke about - convergence distance does the trick, one short burst and your wing off (Rotol Hurricane vs. Bf 110).

I'm sry but it doesn't work here.

What I was moslty contesting (as I had a lag as I told you with wing on/wing off in a matter of a frame) was the "no cutout with neg G".

Moreover, this is not a thread to discuss tjht. Probably you know this alrdy:evil: . Would be better to open another thread.

Doesn't matter - my post was well to the topic of the above video, e.g. convergence shooting.

As for your whining and accusing other people in the chatline - that's your business and copmletely off topic, but just FIY if you know about the neg G cut out I might as well as I actually flew that Hurri and I am not stupid to follow you in that kind of maneuvers + I know how much I can push to keep her running smoothly. I am not cheater because I don't fall for your trick (nicely done neg G roll btw) and I know how to shoot.

Rob with all the ones I trailed like honey with bears, did you even think that as the last shooter you might not hve not been the catcher ?

I am not accusing. I am testifying. I don't care who it is. Tht's what those guys don't catch. I am just against cheating in general. That the one doing that is named Paul, Pierre or Peter, frankly ... I don't care. I am not Gd or in anyone mind.

Yep. It sure works in this sim. They can't keep up. "He put his nose down and before you knew it he was half way across the channel". One thing I hope they do not do is change this.

Please sticky me again :)

Too much O/T babble in this thread. Maybe someone could start a new one with a link to this one ...

Needs to be culled and videos only and stickied.

Well I'm not going to go through 150 pages deleting O/T posts, so, somebody start a new CoD videos thread, with a link to this thread, and we can close this one.
