4.09 - Support & Bug Reporting

[Lucas_From_Hell]

Just found this one less than 5 minutes ago:

In QMB, Slovakia map (I only tested it on Winter, but I think it's also worth for Summer too), when you set your side to "Axis" and the Target as "Scramble", you take-off from an Allied base. I was a little bit surprised to see cannon shells exploding around (and at) me while I was starting the engine.

Fokker DXXI Early, with skies, in QMB Moscow Winter map.

When landing on a snow covered airstrip, the skies "submerge" under snow, as does wingtip, if plane rolls, without neither crashing nor breaking.

Also, if you press on wheel brakes, you still can hear the sound of brakes as in a wheeled plane.

Track available, sent to DT email adress.

BTW, very nice D-XXI, and excellent cockpit, really a very high-quality work.

That worked for me the dll change did the trick. Thanks

I don't think this is a bug exclusive to 4.09m, but I will report it anyway.

Take a P-38 up high and you will notice that the contrails for this plane are not appearing DIRECTLY behind it like other planes. The contrails are actually appearing ABOVE and behind the plane.

I have screenshots if you would like to see them. Obviously, this is in a totally unmodded 4.09m.

Please post it, I was testing something with contrails few days ago so if there is something wrong with contrails now is good opportunity to fix it.

You are correct, unfortunately I made mistake with AAA, we will correct it for next patch, I'll have to redo all QMB missions for it anyway .

FC99,

Notice the P-38 contrail is ABOVE and behind the P-38. The contrail behind the P-47 is directly behind the P-47. As far as I know, this only appears with the P-38 (all 3 models).

Eh, Aviar ... was it really necessary to save those screenshots in this large resolution and as BMP? JPGs of 800x600 would have been sufficient and much faster in loading.

I believe the P-51 is the same, I'll test some aircraft later today, though.

Actually, I just checked the P-51 (all models) and the contrails look fine.

Sorry I coudn't find the track from the email, but I think I know what you mean. Problem with recorded tracks is that they don't store enough information so that all visual element could be replicated perfectly. However in game itself they should work ok.

For example skis are not aligned with ground when plane lands, since there is no information available that when they should turn. Problem doesn't exist with Gladiator's skis since they are always alignd with ground, but that's slightly incorrect behaviour for the skis.
