Which version? If you have the version I posted then it is a problem. If it's posted by someone else then it is in a form the game does not see at all, and is not a problem.

Oh and Dowly, good vid with a proper ending for this bunch
Version? :hmm: are there more than 1 ? it's just a small addon for patch 4.09 to make the AI better like it was with patch 3.04,
anyway i will try to delete it

I dont think it would have worked, the ai would want to act different in your game than in us.:hmmOr it might have, who knows.)

Yeh, it wont work as it changes gameplay aspects. It would make the server out of sync so to speak, either not letting mengle join or crashing the whole server. Or it even might let mengle play, but things would happen differently for him, i.e. we see an AI on mengle's 6O'clock, but at mengle's end, there's no AI chasing him.

Yea. He would think where crazy.

"hey mingle, there is a ai on your 6"

{he looks back} "no there is not one"

"yes there is"

"no theirs not"
(continues for a while. lol)

Wonder what would happen if the ai in are game was shooting him, but there was no ai in his game doing so.:hmm: Game would probably say wtfk and crash.:rotfl:

Mengle,I know the AI mod you're talking about.It is completely bogus. It does not work at all, because the game does not see the files in the form they are in that mod.

Todays Singaporage:

First mission had Hunter, Kratos and Oberon in Buffalos with Task Force and Schroeder forced to take Jap telescopic sniper planes.
Kratos nearly gave Oberon a heart attack by suddenly appearing off his starboard bow with a cheery " Ullo Oberon!"



Soon, Oberon called out two contacts at four o clock, to which the Jap-Schroeder asks "What altitude?" But Kratos wasn't falling for that one.
"Aaah shut uuup!"
Battle was joined with a telescopic Jap fighter diving on Oberon and giving him a good riddle of air rifle pellets, one of which got lodged in the flaps, thus jamming them.
Task Force, whilst being persued by Hunter, decided to investigate that smell of kerosene in the darker resesses of the cockpit with his lighter:



"Ah thought Japanese pilots didn't 'av parachutes?"



Kratos took his plane a little too low and suffered an engine problem, thus hari-karing himself into the ground. Oberon found himself at low altitude after dodging a couple of Jap planes and with little else going on around him he decided that the time was right to RTB.
Hunter and Schroeder continued to throw air rifle pellets at each other, but eventually Hunter succumbed to boredom first and fell out of the sky.
Meanwhile, Oberon returned to base and 109'd on the runway.

The next mission
Much the same as the first but this time with enough Buffalos for everyone. Theory is that RAF command is trying to get rid of the Buffalos quickly to make way for Hurricanes....

We hope!

Hunters undercarriage decided that it could no longer be attached to the Buffalo and fell apart on take-off, leaving a bemused, Kratos, Oberon, Task Force, Schroeder and Fincuan to take off over his wreckage.



Oberon tailed Kratos all the way to the target zone whilst Hunter moved to Air Traffic Control, trading the usual pleasantries with Schroeder, responding after Schroeder made the grevious error of saying 'Ah, French and English both the same' with the comeback 'Ah, Germans and Austrians, both the same' which stumped the Jarmin



Eventually Oberon and Fin spotted the targets, once again at the three - four o clock position, and the intercept was made, and all of the squadron ran into immediate problems. Virtually everyone got a Jap on their tail, with Schroeder effected particularly badly with two rather persistant AI. Oberon got one but shook it, then he picked up another and shook that with a stall which brought him down a few thousand feet where he spotted Schroeder in some distress. He dived immediately to help, taking the Buffalo to over 500kph (It really can do it folks...just not for very long!!) and watched as Schroeder tried the Kratos maneuver to shake the Japs but, as expected, the AI just went over the bridge and then lost contact.



Oberon came in on Schroeders tail and confirmed it was clear, but then found out where the two Japs on Schroeders tail had gone...on his!
So, he tried a botched attempt at a Cobra, putting his Buffalo into a vertical climb and then cutting the throttle and pushing the nose forward. Surprisingly effective as the first Jap plane overshot and the other broke left. However it wasn't long before both Schroeder and Oberon had one back on their tails. Task Force also had one on his tail, and quite nearly IN it, as they passed Oberon and Oberon tried to turn to help Task Force, the Jap plane was virtually brushing Task Force's tail with its prop!



Oberon stalled himself again, got shot up a bit more, and then prepared to turn tail and run for home, but before he could, he stalled at too low an altitude. Yeah, you can see where this one is going...



Kratos, by this time had been downed, and Fin had gone too. Schroeder lasted a bit longer, with Japs all over him but then with a cry of "Gaaaagh!" he was downed too.
Which left Task Force, who was harrassed (as far as I can tell) most of the way back to base where he landed and then possibly ran into Hunters wreckage because his flaps were jammed and thus he came in far too fast.

All in all, I do believe it could be declared that the RAF got F'd in the A Royally....

Danke, good report

Remember not to overfly at 5 meters the Jap plane you've just shot down, they tend to blow up upon hitting the ground
