v2.30 patch 1 released, lots of fixes

[Wiley]

Aaaand the wind is back... slightly different. At this moment from 14K upwards in 8 different layers. Bombsight now indeed compensates for wind.

Question, suppose you drop through all the layers after a good calibration.  Do you hit right on the crosshair?

I had no problems taking out VH, dar, barracks from 18k in my Betty. Bombs were going through 3 different layers of wind and landed on point.  I only had to compensate slightly for drift when lining up, and to recalibrate when attacking from a different direction / course.

The current wind settings:



20 mph of wind from 14-21k, 30mph of wind from 22k on.

So the net effect is pretty much just the necessity to recalibrate when you change heading and get used to adjusting for your track when you're in crosswind...  Cool.

Deal, as long as you pick the one we plan on doing next.

Increased Ki-43 ammo load to 270 rounds per gun.

Pyro! Thank you.

The key for dropping through the different layers of wind is not turning after you calibrate since you would be changing your angle through the wind.

This is a pretty cool patch.

I have an old system but could still run detailed water & ground and get 50 FPS.

Took a huge drop in frame rate with new patch.

Now with eveything off frame rate is about 22 average

   I think this latest patch is better for my old machine. Everything off I had a solid 60 fps. With most advanced graphics on I was down to 22. My rig is pushing 8 years old. No Disco's last night for the 4 hours I played. I feel it is an improvement for me as I would seem to disco a few times before.

  That map also I believe had a problem up north in the past and I would disco more often at the northern most bases.

     All in all I give it

I was not aware of any bugs.......too busy GV'ing.   

WTG just the same. That was allot of work.

[Megalodon]

This 1 will make the greifers happy WTG HT! Put this 1 in combo with the cross country pm's or sqd vox and its a greifer Party 

"You can now mouse over a friendly dot on the clipboard map to show the game id of that player.  You have to hold the mouse cursor over the dot for a 1/2 second.  There is a sysvar in the arena flags menu to turn this arena setting off and on."

I have two bottles ready when you take me flying.  I just completed my Stearman flight at Cavanaugh so I'm ready for centerline thrust.

Oh ... my eyes! TMI. Take it private.
