III./JG27 Server - Reports, Feedback, Issues

SNAFU · #1 10-07-2011, 05:05 PM

Hey csThor, I hear you. But anyhow, we are and will always be a minority seeking for that kind of experience.

I like both side. When I am in the mood I just go for the next shooting-it-out.

I cannot speak for the III./JG27, I am just a member, but everyone interested and asking (kindly

) is of course welcome in our TS. But as I said, it is actually not public. But we can make a public TS, if required. Concerning the HP, well, have got enough work at hand, so feel free, if you`ve got experience with Webdesign (I´ve none).

I used to make websites a few years ago, but none of them had any trace of PHP or similar stuff in them - just old-fashioned HTML. This may be interesting for sites with mission details, but I can't imagine a modern website for a server not being built on ready-made portal structures, even if it's only for incorporating a TS viewer or/and a statistics section.

Perhaps I can provide a bit of graphics support and add my historical knowledge, but unfortunately I never learned PHP or similar languages.

We (5./JG27 & 9./ZG26) are very much into the historical team orientated side aswell... Question is, are there any red sides that are also this way?

Nice server concept by the way! As for a public TS I would advise you to get one, seems to be something the public want in general. Were also trying to get a second public TS3 up and running for our own server.

I spawned in at the airfield in AD 3 taking a 109 E1, the plane was in a small hanger. After starting the plane I attempted to pull the plane out of the hanger and it blew up the second I moved for no apparent reason.

I believe it was mission 1

I figured you might want to know.

Thank you MattE,

Every feedback welcome. I spent the last 4 days only looking for the reason, why the radio menu breaks up for red, as soon a misison is started by the menu. So I have no time to play at all.

Carqeubut, AD3, is sometime difficult. Spawning in the norwegian hangers (thats what I call them) works for me, when I hit the brakes immediatly. Otherwise your tail hits the wall, after beeing turned, what some call wind (I switched off wind completlely so I doubt it). The moment you move, the collision starts. In some hangers your tail jumps up, when you leave the hanger too fast, due to a step in the hanger roll-out-way, so you have to move really slowly.

But sometimes, that all doesn´t not work out, so I am currently reworking the airfield. I already defined new spawnpoints, but somehow they are ignored. Have to take a closer look at this.

Did you experience any performance difficulties or menu breakdowns?

@Farber:
I know of no Red-only squad, so I am happy we can use AI opposition, allthough the AI is of course far off mostly, but better than nothing.

For me the plane exploded within seconds of spooling up the engine, the tail might have moved laterally but it happened so fast I did not notice.

I did not have any problems with the menu that I am aware of (this was my first time in your server). Just to make sure, I can’t pick a specific mission, I can only generate a random mission, correct?

It is a cool server with a great concept SNAFU, I am looking forward to getting on there more. The ability to generate a mission while in the game thru the menu set is the type of thing that is going to make COD the best combat flight simulator ever.

HI MattE,

I finally ironed out the bug, breaking the custom menu for the RAF team, at least I hope and if find some time, I will rework the Carquebut airfield today.

Currently you can only start a mission which is selected randomly. The pilots back then didn´t have the choice either

, and both teams can start a mission, but only 1 every 60 minutes, so all players can concentrate on the currently set mission objectives and no one can choose their favourite (most points / easiest / what ever reasons) mission.

The available planes a team has, now depends on their scores and currently I am also working on a "supply system", which shall enable the players to order certain rare types of planes. The supply will finally be also the winning criterium of the "Kanalkampf" scenario.
