Thanks Cut and Paste, now I know a  US sub scored a sub-to-sub kill with torpedoes by catching a Jp. submarine charging their batteries in the surface.

Did they fix the f15C's radar so that when you activate your AmRaam's you dont freeze the radar azimuth into the ground?

I'm pretty good in Mig 29 but would prefer the f15 C...

and what matchup do you fellas use... ubi is a cluster ****...

Just wondering?



Thanks for update...

I gotta admit, that looks sweet.

But I'm just not a jet dweeb. Too complicated for my small brain.

Very cool, and nice pix. You guys are way ahead of us, just got Shoot v1.6 (a must have) installed, and printed the manual. Im still flying around in the SU-25 taking it all in, and watching the training tracks over and over.

F4.0 may have progressed well over the last several years and there are some glaring flaws in LOMAC, but the feel of real flight in this sim and the grafix have me hooked. I'm hoping for patches and upgrading along the way.

It's potential is huge.

I think so but haven't tried it.

BTW, I believe there is a few weeks of single play in order to dive into the sim part of lomac before you get too concerned about multiplayer. It is a jet sim. It's hard to just jump into and expect a AH experience.

mm struggling a bit with my key mapping - might have to resort to reading the manual...

Post by: Fishu on December 13, 2003, 07:57:16 AM

Hopefully they'll continue patching it and doesnt just resort to one quickly made patch...

There are some bugs I don't like, which makes the gameplay a bit tough :I

I was not very happy with the coding on the demo, and the full release although a improvement I don’t think is that much better. However, a 512 RAM stick upgrade helped immensely. If anyone remembers the Falcon 4.0 release, this is pretty damn good in comparison.

I actually like the SU-25 best for ground pounding and just FS2004 flying, but the A-10 is really well done. Putting the guns on vehicles effects wise is the best ever done in any sim. That alone is worth the price of admission. If you just got the game, load the A10 MAV training mission and watch it. Then take control right away and complete it. If you don’t standoff and kill the AAA with a MAV, the damage graphix will be painfully appearent.

tell me can I reenact the Su-25 scene out of Red Horseman?

Title: Lomac
Post by: Creamo on December 13, 2003, 05:04:47 PM

No clue what that is but with the fast battle planner you can do easy cool missions. Pry would suffice.

Maybe ask Frenchy or someone about the Mission Editor, haven't got that far.

I have been playing around with the mission editor creating some simple missions (AWACS defense, massive furball, etc.).  I wish I had a Cray to run a huge Red Storm Rising type of mission, but it really is a nicely done sim.  It isn't over the top in terms of systems to learn, at least compared with Falcon or Janes F-18, but it does require some good management of information and radar usage..

Found a fix for the F15 radar bug...

the key is mashing the BVR (2 key) and the boresight mode (4 key) like 3 times in a row back and forth..

That will free the radar elevation bars and allow you to scan properly...

This bug has greatly affected my gameplay with the f15c....  now its much better...

Hope this helps...


Anyone play at hyperlobby...  Noticed it was a chec site? is it safe or virus haven...

Thanks in advance...
