Someone please send a field crew out to cut down some trees
« on: August 20, 2016, 09:24:24 AM »
When manning the 88 AA there are trees placed right up near the guns. This leaves a very large area that the guns can not cover. Trying to shoot through the trees results in you blowing yourself up along with the gun. (Did that) This large gap allows for low flying aircraft and tanks to slip through unchallenged.

So please send out the ground personnel to cut down these trees.

Thank you,

I am nut sure if B29s will be limited to the bigger fields.  If not, there will be some perks lost when they find the trees at the end of some runways.

:airplane: You are right Randy1, there are going to lots of crashes on the end of runways because someone set trees to close to end of runway. I have flown off of a lot of WW2 fields down south and they all had "clear ways" cut at the end of runways, just for that reason!
They still have a lot of work to do before this version is ready for use!
Blue Skies and wind at my back and wish that for all!!!

Earl your talking about less then 10 mins work if you would tell us exactly which runways have trees in which terrain.  And NO we don't have much work to do before release.

The field I am refereeing to is A2 I think, a small field! Nose gun on 29 needs to be corrected, its set to far to left!
Gun sights are so dim, can't use them unless against a dark back ground! Game graphics look great, but I can't seem to get my video setting right and instrument panel is to dark to use most of time! What should mine be set on...I have a top of the line card, but really don't know how to set it up I guess!

I would like to thank the field crew for the quick response on the tree removal.

The trees in question are at ALL the single runway fields. They are on the 88 AA guns located in the upper left of the selection screen in the Hanger. When entering the gun position move the gun about 20 deg. to the left to see the offending trees. This is at every single runway base in question.

Thank you for your concern on the gap in adequate protection of our fields.

Sight brightness is adjustable in the sight selection window now.  :aok

Try turning off anti-aliasing in game under the advanced graphic settings. I had a similar problem.
