Splain that one away with bad lead, different rates of fire, crappy aim, pilot error etc...etc...

Late edit for mk84.  HO a bomber from the 10-15 degress higher than the pit. Aim at nose and squeeze.  Watch sprites from NOSE to TAIL. 

Turn your weapons effects on so that I can see the orange plume of smoke when you hit a tater.  As for the shot, looks like you tatered his engine.  That is very common.  What's the problem?

at 150 yards what is the spread between the tater and the 12.7 guns?

If its small, I would say that you had a case of tater flew through the plane, a bug I have seen and noted in my previous post.
Yeah, that's right, you just got your rear handed to you by a fuggly puppet!

My problem is a tater hit to the cockpit should have killed the pilot among other things. And do u see smoke from engine after strike

That was only firing the 108

Where are the 12.7mm's coming from?    :D

His most recent post suggests that its irreverent as he states he was only firing the 108, but if he fired all guns, then the hit sprite, not having an orange explosive component to it, seems to suggest that it could be the mgs instead of the taters.

There are none...

relax, I am not questioning your judgment, i just suspect it could be related to the plane disappearing bug and the likes...

     My point was that you said you were D200 out.  It is not possible to hit from nose to tail and be D200 out the entire time.  I didn't think that I would have to blatently point out that your plane is moving through the air, as is your enemies.
     Why were you firing your MGs at the same time as your 30mm cannon? :headscratch:
     How would you be able to see your 30mm tracers?

This is maddening. I stated that I fired only the 108.  I am not at all acustomed to having my integrity questioned. Let me see if I can snip some different angles.  For the love of pete...

post a video of it, let HiTech analyze it, only he can give you a definitive answer, the rest of us are just speculating.

I will shoot them the vid on Monday.  Thanks for the deep comments on the web fellahs.  I love the K4 and the Mk108.  Having it do anything less than advertised for whatever reason, gets me all worked up.

Ok,

Since this is probably a LWMA arena issue.

(No one who I have spoken with who complained mentions the DA.)

The next time one of my POTW K4 Mastertaters reports to me his 30mm is shooting blanks, I will do the following.

I'll give up my score or perks or whatever to a filmed exercise at point blank range. The squad mate who is having the problem can go to another country and we tune on 252. I will fly straight and level in the plane type he shot blanks at anywhere the two of us can meet for a few minutes uninterrupted. I will auto level at some agreed upon speed and he can saddle up to 200d or 100d whatever. While filming he holds down only the 30mm button and we see what happens. We will repeat 3 times just incase it's an intermittant internet UDP packet dump issue.

Dirtdart if you want to do this with me when I'm online next give me a PM. I have the perks to give up incase it's a specific aircraft type that is the problem and not the connection or Mk 108 coading and I don't care about score. I would like to resolve this Ghost in the Shell because the issue is becomeing divisive.

I'm announcing this openly so HiTech knows I'm not trying to pad a squad mates or other players score.

Just called my ISP.  Since the 10th of November the internet has been spotty, in and out.  Shakes fist at century link.....  So, needless to say, should be connectivity indeed.  I wonder, if there could be a fix, especially since the game is "playable" on dial up?

Maybe but your not the only one to report this issue, many of us have been experiencing tater abnormalities.

Mine stopped after HiTech made his damage fix.
