4.09 Feedback

[GOZR]

Here my sincere opinion on the new 4.09..
To make a serious competition is impossible the only competition that can be done is on LAN with a human supervision of files of participants, Now it can have all the goodies you want on the 409 to me it's a waste.. even if slovakia map is what is suppose to be for benchmarks .. if there is no anti different files verification other than this check=2 (not very useful) all or any patches with 4.09.. 4.10 or what ever are a waste on the Online point of view. With a little punk buster style of software this would calm down all parties the moders to do what they please and the others to compete without doubt.

Mean time from an onliner like me or what i use to be, it's a complete waste and all the good pilots and rivals are basicly gone..

So now what say you about this punk buster ?
Is it going to come with 409 final yes or not.. easy answer.

Thank you.

GORZ:

Oleg will do what he wants to do!
He's not waiting on our requests for
how he's dealing with mods.

Me thinks a lot of Mod Protection
will be in 409 server Patch.

Its awesome - thanks!

Running on a iMac Core Duo 2.0gig, 2gig mem, x1600vid @ 1680x1050 widescreen/perfect mode, High quality water etc. with the new view distance.

Love the new map and all the details! Did a quick test mission. Not sure if the stuff was there before and I never saw it, but now I see little industry (not the big factories), two different kinds of hay stacks, outhouses, graveyards, wood piles, and my favorite: Clotheslines! Good stuff. Water looks good too.

Only graphic anomaly was when watching an explosion from the external view, the shadow of the explosion had some pixelation in it. No biggie, just hadn't seen that before.

I must say WOW ! Beautiful new maps !!
I still have to check the other features out, like LandGeom=3, but as of now, it's stunning.

Only "glitch" I noticed yesterday is sometimes I wasn't credited for the kill, after shooting down someone.
Not kidding, I mean, I am pretty sure I was the final "killer", but someone else's name showed up at the moment of the bogey explosion.

Maybe it's just me who sucks in deflection shooting but it occurred a bit too often...

Happy New Year everybody, and thanks again for this beautiful Xmas present !!


Edit: When this happened, I was flying with known teammates in a password protected room.

First of all,thanks for posting the beta 409 . I have downloaded fron two other sites and with both of the I have over written the files and have copied and pasted . But the game will only load to 95% before it freezes and wont continue.May your version will do the trick. Thanks

Hi guys,

so far the 409b is ok, but one thing is a lill nervy, it is the sound of the radio messages.

If u fly, there should be messages like: "Heading 180 50!" but in game only comes "Heading" than it stops, or instead of "No 4 keep attention on ur 6 o'clock!" there only is "No 4" than it stops.

I tried to reinstall 1946 and than installed 409 new, but already the same. In 408 the messages are workin' correctly.

With best regards

Not really a bug, just map design issues...

Was starting to make some DCG campaigns with the new maps..
and just starting with the Solvakia map.. Ive found a lot of instances where the rail routes (and some road) are not continuous.. makes it pretty difficult for campaign design when rail lines wont run continuous. You go so far and then for some reason you can't get another waypoint assigned.

I hope its not as bad on the other maps.

I will have to get back to you on that. There is away of turning them off as soon as I remember what it was. It goes way back. It turns off the big shadows and leaves the smaller and plane shadows.

Update: here it is:

LandShading=2

Finally works perfect on my 8800 GTS 640 meg card

I have had an issue where when the plane load model loads at about 900 meters the plane would become invisable untill around 700 meters
Made it impossible to line up on head on shots and hard to see some one on your tail
This map is awesome
cant wait to have this on a server like War cloudes
