looking forward to seeing how the 109f and spitv match up now
thanks
-
good set up, what eagler said.
-
since the current set up has been running for eight days would it be possible to load this much more appropriate set up without any further delay?

I agree:aok

spit 5b is a goood matchup to 109E :)
i know this is bob but 109es, spit1s, 110s, and ju87s were long gone in 1941 and hurr2c is in
109F4 will eat alive spit 5 in all departments (except tight turns)

I cannot imagine how your reached that conclusion. The Spitfire Mk Vb would eat the Bf109E-4 for lunch. That is not a good matchup.
We'll see how the 1941 Spitfire Mk Vb does against the 1942 Bf109F-4. Given the flaps on the Bf109s weren't fixed it should be good. With fixed flaps I think the Bf109F-4s would have apretty solit advantage. The firepower on the Bf109F-4 is light, but the Spitfire is the most fragile aircraft in AH I think.

He only plays H2H.

Karnak:
Servies Date: Bf 109F-4 ... 6-41
ummmm, 42?
Either case, it should be a decent matchup!

The boost setting on the Bf109F-4 is a 1942 boost setting, like the old Spitfire Mk V's +16lbs boost.
At least that is what Wotan said some time ago when we were debating Spit versions.
-
if that's true then 109F-4's top speed should be above ~ 400mph

Thanks for letting us know Gear. I'll have it fixed shortly.

Its fixed.:aok
-
Thx:aok

the set up is good. I like the fog for the immersion factor. the 109E4 wasn't enabled anywhere that I saw but no loss to me. however predictably, whenever there is a woobiefire week, I just logged off and it was 9 allied to 3 axis and the allieds ganging as usual. I got ganged every sortie and that's no fun so i'll see ya's next week. 1 v 1 in the spitV v the 109F it really comes down to the player. I did notice that for me the spits are taking 10-15 cannon hits to go down. that's pretty bogus.
-
was more balanced when I was on for a short time earlier
the spitv is much better - more an equal match now for the 109f

i guess 1941 spit5 matches very well against 1942 109F:aok

Two things:
Haze setting? why so severe?
Arena setting for AoA - could be me or does it seem almost like there's a semi-stall limiter effect (due to a hosed AoA setting)? Feels weird flying there.
-
No shane it all in your mind you just not flying right. You cant cange FMs in each arena or make planes stall out because of AoA if you dont have stall limiter on!!!!!! :noid (http://www.freewebs.com/linkafi/speechless-smiley-034.gif) :noid (http://www.freewebs.com/linkafi/speechless-smiley-034.gif) :noid (http://www.freewebs.com/linkafi/speechless-smiley-034.gif)
BUT just to make sure Im asking one of the CMs to do these two things.
Bring up the clipboard click setup - arena setup - evironment - arena settings. Then scroll down and find "stall limit AoA" open that and make sure its set at 1.000 or 2.000 those are the normal settings. Then scroll up to "flight mode flags" and make sure "stall limit enabled" isnt checked then click save and exit the arena settings. And whoever said anyone can check the arena settings to show what they are is dead wrong, becuase then my airshow smoke would be on and I wouldnt beable to take formations. Which I cant and I can do in the CT.

What?:huh
-
It was a few months ago when someone said that anybody can check what the arena settings are in there "arena settings" which is wrong.
-
I definitely concur with the stall limiter. Both Shane and I felt something "out of whack". It took a LOT to bring the stall horn up while flying a 109E, made it nearly impossible to pull Gs, and in fact I was unable to pull up from a dive I normally would have, and plowed in for no reason.
Stall limiter is DEFINITELY on., but maybe the AOA is less than default because default would have been even worse than what we had.
P.S. A46 or a45 (closest to Britain) only had 109F and C47 enabled, plus GVs. All other fields were fine, just this one was lacking.
-
So the 'arena settings' doesnt correctly show what they are in the CT and MA, or has it just been the CT? Id like to cross reference the settings in the CT one night with a non staffer.
-
It dont in the CT. I went in there and looked at my settings and looked at my flight mode flags. My smoke was inabled and formations were disabled. So I uped a formation of Ju88s and tryed to use smoke but it was diabled.
-
if you want i got nothing to do ill go in there now and cross check it.
-
ok, Im going in to check that stall limit thing.
-
You mean "uncheck" ? :P

AoA shows set at 2.00 and stall limiter isnt enabled. Anything else is beyond me man.

nah, it wasnt enabled.
-
maybe it was just a perception effect of the haze/fog setting...
is that fog setting gonna be like that all week? yuck...
-
Shane: Historically, weather was something every pilot had to deal with. So... deal with it and maybe later on the weather will change? :D
-
with visibility that low, flights would be grounded.
:aok
-
Well if it's not the stall limiter, I'm at a loss.. I was flying the 109E and pulling as hard as I could in a turn, and not ONCE did my slats pop out. I was barely able to make the stall horn buzz, and I wasn't able to pull out of a simple split-S from 5k. That, to me, reeks of "Stall Limiter". I didn't have any problems like that at all in the SEA or the MA after I left the CT.
-
sometimes switching arenas can require a stick recal?
i find going from MA to DA i have to recal my usb cyborg alot of times.
-
Neg, nothing was off center, it just wouldn't let me do the same things in the other arenas. I've checked before under stick setup and never saw anything funny when I moved my stick to the limits.

When I was logged in last night it appears that external view are enabled for all aircraft right now.
On the subject of the fighters themselves, the Spit I seems to have the edge on the 109E, and the 109F is defintely superior to the Spit V. It might be interesting to drop the Spit I/Hurri I/109E/110C next week and add in the Spit IX and 190A5 (maybe the 109G2 as well). Then maybe throw in the Spit VIII, P-47D-11 and 109G6 the week after that.

We just had that setup about two weeks ago. The Spit/109 duels are fine, but I'd like to see some USAAF aircraft to fly against the Luftwaffe. Not everybody loves flying the Spitfire. This setup needs some Jugs.:aok
