Title: B-26 Bugs on Beta 11
Post by: dbljack on January 22, 2004, 10:26:48 PM
The bomb calibration did not seem to calibrate

The where no pings when I shot down a 109 from the tailgunner postion

I had engine oil damage in both 1 and 2 and a left main fuel leak.  All of the smoke was coming from the center of the plane and not the engines or wings.   This could be why I didn't see the pings because visibilty was poor.

Shortly after takeoff I checked on the drones so see if they where there.  They where trailing and only 1/2 to 1/3 of the plane was there.  Once they caught up I could see the entire aircraft.

This has to do with the displayed object size slider in setup/video/video settings.

Those of us that have it set more towards performance will get similar results to what you saw.

Setting detail to full 'more detail' lets you see the drones at any distance.

I tried 3 different runs with the b26 and could not calibrate. It seemed to not want my click on the map to set the alt either.

The text stays red, the veiw remains directly below you ,bombs overshoot badly  and at times target alt stays at 0. out of about 20 attempts it worked once but still missed target.

Yes the text turns yellow, and I definitely didn't have caps lock on.

Text turns yellow in cal mode but goes back red when you exit cal mode. The terrain moves normally while holding Y, but goes back directly below plane when you exit cal. Loadout or formations made no differance. Also loadout and fuel text flicker off more than on. I did find that only when the clipboard was near center screen that it wouldn't accept target alt.
