Title: 190 tailwheels
Post by: 33Vortex on March 10, 2010, 01:40:08 PM
So this bug has been around for 5 years or so now with the tailwheels not retracting, you simply can not have missed it. Why has it not been fixed?

It retracts X inches. It is not a full retraction. You can see this in the film viewer (or at least you used to, not too long ago) by sliding the "gear" slider up and down, and watch as the gear moves.

At least, that's how I seem to recall it. I could be wrong. Haven't looked at a 190 in the skin viewer for a number of months.

Don't give me that crap. It's not retracting as it should and it hasn't for years.  :mad:

This is what it should look like.

In AH it doesn't retract at all. The bug is minor and gameplay wise irrelevant. What piss me off royally is the fact that it's been completely ignored for years.

Whoa, now. Curb the hostility.

*I* am not giving you "that crap" -- blame HTC not me.

Re-reading my post, I can see you might have misread it. If so, then sorry. I was not saying "on the real thing" -- I was only referring to AH. Wrong or not, it still "retracts".

Intended as partially humorous, but the day I've been having today must have sapped my funny bone dry, it came across a bit flat.

Not your fault, HTCs negligence to fix it is what's caused me to post this. Like I said, it's a minor glitch, but it's been around for YEARS.

Yeah, it works on the Ta152. Check the D9 for example.

And since you insulted me, I'll return the favor... idiot.  :neener:
