Im guessing you photoshoped the laser beam in there because they dont show up in my films.

Did anybody else notice that the most common maneuver the sharks seem to conduct was the Hammerhead?

Coincidence?

The laser (spelled lazer by HTC  :lol ) appreared in the latest version of the Object Editor.  I had my suspicions, but didn't want to ruin the surprise, so I waited to post it.

Also, ordnance is now in the OE for custom bomb skins.  Of course, it's spelled Ordance in the OE.  Guys at HTC, ya really gotta stop letting HiTech name these things. :D

Those sharks last night were awesome fun.  Could turn tighter than anything and climb vertical. I even had a couple planes head-on collide with me, and you didn't feel a thing, litteraly the shark chewed them up and spit them out :rock .  Took me a minute and a recap of the logs to see that I had collided and then shot down their aircraft, lol.

We need more excuses to get a bunch of AH players drunk somewhere in Texas and have a few hours of wtfbbq going on in the arenas imo.  I was disapointed at how it didn't last all night (aka: give everyone a turn with a shark), I'm a late nighter on the arenas and I feel like it really sucked for those that had to work late on saturday and missed out.  But I'm glad I got to fly a shark for the hour or so I did.  :aok

The spontaneous destruction off all the hangers at a39 appeared to be necessary to allow the sharks to gain air superiority...until the vh popped.

There was an over/under pool that afternoon -- on how many whines would be recorded. During the con mission somebody was continously watching for 'em, and kept a running log of handles and totals.

Did the sharks have sounds to go with it?

They had a special sound pack they were passing around on a usb dongle at the con.  I didn't load it on my system though, so I don't know what it had.  Otherwise the shark's laser just went "phew phew" as someone already said.

Better.  Go to the convention and play on line.
