If you check the "nose bounce" thread in the Help section, you'd see its a personal setting.  I had the same problem, have had for some time.  I took the advice in the thread, bingo.  No more nose bounce.  

If I had even a nickel for every time people blamed their problems on HT's coad and quit looking for something wrong on their end, I'd be .............. well, probably not rich, but I'd have alot more than I do now.  :)  

Seriously guys.  Between the tech heads that hang out on the BBS testing stuff, Skuzzy testing stuff, and general "workin it out", almost all bugs are caught early on.  It might take awhile to fix sometimes, but HT has done a decent job of it.  I think if there was a bug that affected FMs it would have been caught by now.

And yes, I seem to notice a difference in flight between MA and CT too, but I still think its the way I fly, not a coad issue.  There are nights I'd say thats BS too, but one thing makes me think it's me over the coad.  It's not consistent.  The only constant here is the underlying coad of the game.  Arena changes, map changes...........they are irrellevant.  Every one is identical as far as the settings go.  Only our movements and actions within the arenas are subject to change.  Even in the MA I have bad nights where it seems I cant fly for squat.  I get frustrated, I make it worse.  Then there are those nights where it seems like I cant lose, where every move is just right and I'm in that zone along the edge and no matter what I'm flying it performs miracles.  I wish I had fewer of the former and more of the latter, but I cant blame it on the game.

The First Amendment covers public speech. AH is not public, its private and its owned by HiTech, everything you do in AH is regulated by his rules. You can not display a Swastika in AH, yet this would be protected by the US Constitution, same for abusive speech.

lol, I always have the limiter off.  Around the same time, I had problems with Spits also, something might have been up effectign everything, not just 109s.  However, there is a problem with my theory.  First, it would require a software bug that would make that setting effect planes that have the limiter off and second, I have not noticed that problem in a while.  Even before the FT arrena.  So, again, I may be full of doo doo :lol

CT staff
54, disband, change your names, and get a new start.  I think at this point no one is going to take you seriusly even if you make a valid point.

Wow, I read a little bit of that thread and it seems that people are talking about the stall setting there too.  Maybe it is something to be looked at by both the CT staff and HT  (assuming it has not already)

I have noticed no difference in flight modeling or flight characteristics of an aircraft between the MA, CT, TA, Offline or anywhere.

I dunno, maybe it's just me and my uber PC.

I had fun in the CT last night, and echo Grit's earlier comment. Wish I coulda stayed a while longer, but wife ack was fully loaded.

to all who partook, and came for the fun of it!

Oh, and this CT staff bashing needs to stop. We need to build the CT back up, not tear it down with inuendo and accusation.

You are, of course, absolutely correct in your observations, and I agree wholeheartedly.  My point is this: Returning abuse with abuse is not the way to deal with it. Abusive speech should be dealt with in a professional controlled manner.  Slash should know that you don’t put out fires by dowsing them with gasoline.  As a staffer his job is to quell not incite.

StallLimitAOA, only has an effect when your have the stall limiter enabled. It is simply the degres before stall AOA that the stick is relaxed.

So if storch is flying with the stall limiter enabled it could change it's ablity to stall, but would not effect any type of plane differently.

If you do not have stall imiter enabled, there is no setting that can change anything about how the planes fly, let alone a setting that would effect 1 plane type.

then can there be something with someones computer that might not like the settings and mess with it so that you stall out easyer?

someone said that the nose bounce was because of the persons system if this is true then could this stall thing be the same?

Are you talking about in the arena or here on the BBS? I've never seen Slash act unprofessionally in the arena but I'm not there all the time obviously, and things by nature here on the BBS are nasty and have been for a long time. Most of what I have seen from him that was nasty were responses to personal attacks on him, not his performance as CT staff. Being on the CT staff does not stop him from returning in kind to personal attacks.

Nope, I think you are right, it is indeed like taxes and death, people are just going to complain, nothing you can do about it.

I would never, ever consider being part of the CT staff even though I think I have things I could add because of the incessant whining about some thing or another, most of it either out of the staff's hands or things that are so insignificant it appears to be just an excuse to take a shot at them. Its just not worth it for what you have to put up with IMO and I respect the CT staff for that regardless of mistakes they make from time to time.
