Missing CV
« on: January 10, 2009, 08:55:23 AM »
Sunday Jan 10th 0750,  CV's are invisible from the B-17 in all views.  However several people and squaddies can confirm that I was over the cv at the time.  Also CV could see me and managed to shoot down one of the Buffs.

what was your video range set for? If you have the graphics turned down too much you might not be able to see things from the height you were at.

I was between 7-10K and was not the only set of bombers that couldn't see it.  Also had squaddies in fighters that could see it and the carrier could sure see me as a 5" gun took one bomber down.  I also turn up all my settings when in bombers

Was the CV near the edge of a map along the borders? 

Just curious, I chased some bombers near the edge of a map and they disappeared at the border of the map then reappeared once they crossed it.

You know there are manned and unmanned 5 inch guns on the destroyers and cruiser as well.  Are you sure there was still a cv up and you didn't get shot down by a different 5 incher?  Were there planes taking off?

Maybe someone had already sunk the cv and had not said they did.
