Title: Water bug.....
Post by: texace on June 10, 2000, 01:39:00 PM

I was curious, and after this long I dunno if anyone has found this too. I took a C205 from 27, flew down the Big Hill, slowed, lowered my landing gear, and decended to the water. I expected for my plane to hit the water, do 8 cartwheels, and sink  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) (knowing what AH can do). I TOUCH DOWN, and roll to a stop. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/eek.gif) Huh? If we get ships, they better be on wheels, cause tat was like the RW at 27.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

I really doubt that modelling the effects of landing/ditching in water was worth the effort for HTC yet  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

BTW, anyone knows the photo sequence of a Bf 110 that is ditching in the channel in the Osprey 'Messerschmitt Bf 110 Zerstörer Aces of World War 2'?

It's very shallow water. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

so I wish you will change water depth to deep sea in v1.03.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

Oh how I've been waiting to interject one of these!

Pyro, if it's shallow water...it's undermodelled (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Salute,

Is it too late to get downriggers in 1.03?

If so then perhaps at least rod holders?

Actually it's just a big blue tarp over the terrain to make it look like water.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)
