4.12.2 de-bugging

If you want to see skins and markings, you now have manually select them for each static aircraft in the FMB and save the changes before you can see them in the missions generated in the campaign. A lot of folks have raised this issue already.

- AAA does fire. Their muzzle flash and tracer fire is much less prominent now, especially when viewed from a distance, particularly for smaller caliber AAA (20mm, 25mm, etc.). I was thinking the same thing until I noticed this.

-I already had turned "on" markings and put some custon skins in FMB and replaced the former file with the new one but they didn't show up anyway in my missions in dgen campaings as well as custom skins. Could you help me please?

-I tried strafing in some dgen campaigns and I saw that AAA didn't fire since 4.12. For example(in dgen campaigns too) when I fly over an airfield I dont see any black clouds which indicate heavy AAAs are firing.

How do you acsess the technical tab in the tab menu for wingman commands etc, also there is an artillery spotter function and guns can be emplaced and linked to the spotter but is this working yet?

Hi guys, great work on 4.12, the wait was definitely worth it.
One small bug though, the Wellington shows no squadron codes or roundel on the fuselage sides.

I also noticed that although she has four bladed props she only shows 3 bladed props graphics when the engines are running.

Not sure why I didn't notice that until now but you're absolutely right.

But the server don't display the teams scores - cumulative or not.

If you in the DT don't want to answer at any question about the dedicated server, say it. I'll stop to ask for information. But it can be interesting to know why you don't answer...

Thx.

Some people are too busy, some or on the vacations and some don't know the answers to your questions about dedicated server.

You access technical tab just like any other. There is a number or letter left of it, press that key and that's all.

You can find demo mission for Artillery spotting here.

There are some problems with formations when flights are attached to each other. Happens in old game versions too but it is easier to get into problems now when you can set formations.

And they also like to drop their bombs early. And I don't mean several dozens of meters, I mean 2-20 km before they reach their target!
I don't know if it's my fault (bad mission making or something) or AI's, but I just can't make them listen to me

It's the mission, they need more fuel. It happens that they are usually low on the fuel before they reach the target. When they are below the threshold they dump the bombs.

No 1 and 3 are practically the same, but in no 2 they blow up right after they spawn so I couldn't test it.

You must take care of spacing when you use side by side takeoffs, if planes are too close, they will explode on spawning.

I tried your mission in coop mode and I can't replicate it. Can you give me step by step instructions how to replicate this.
