Title: Dive bombing Films
Post by: StraDog on July 28, 2004, 07:58:43 PM

Hi Ya'll,

   Is there a way to review films to see where bombs strike.    I am trying to improve my dive bombing.  However, I have not found a good way evaluate strikes or missed in the film.  


Thanks

StrayDog

You can film your bomb run with the ingame film recorcer; use "alt r" to toggle it on or off. You'll know it's on when there is a small capitol R  in the upper left of your screen. Use the Aces High Film Viewer accessed through the Windows 'Start' key to watch them.
A good way to work and improve your dive bombing is to visit the Training Arena and practice with the green training dive bomb sight. Once you get your technique down and familiar with it you will  be hitting your target in no time.
You can also set this training sight up offline. If you want that let me know and we can tell you how to activate it.

you can also set the dive bomb sight offline, in the settings / setup / arena/ arena settings / flight mode flags

enable lead computing gunsight, and divebomb sight.

You guys missed the point lol

In the film viewer, there isn't a way to follow bombs. Good thing to request from HTC.

Whoa, hey SD, didn't notice that was you. Why didn't ya ask the squad by email? :D ;) :D

Getting technical, but he didn't specifically ask 'how do i follow my bombs after I've dropped them?'
To see where bombs strike you look for the craters or use the Training sight to see the impact point when you drop them .

Thanks, thats what I have been doing.  Was hoping there was a quicker way, like in the old AW (HINT).
