Probably going to skip tonight.

Herr-Berbunch · 02-29-12, 01:49 PM

Noooooo!!!

Ah, you've remembered that 400 Gig of 'stuff.

Dowly · 02-29-12, 01:51 PM

I can put the TDM up later if I can find a version that has all the planes.
I'm not touching the coops we played last time and the mission editor isn't working (just hangs there).

I'll let you know closer to the usual time if I'll pop it up or not.

EDIT: Oh hey, the ME works.

EDIT2: I am in awe. How can mission editor be this retarded? It's not supposed to even be possible to be this retarded!?

Dowly · 02-29-12, 03:10 PM

Right, team deathmatch starting in ~ 1 hour.

Both sides have all available planes (side limited), unless I forgot 1 or 2.

Also, neither of the airfields are sitting on 100% flat ground (because... retard editor), so look around abit
before taking off.

Yikes, learning to keep these kites in the air (with wings) is proving to be a humbling experience.

Herr-Berbunch · 03-02-12, 01:07 PM

That's why most modern aircraft aren't made from wood and cloth. Hurrah for modern materials.

Dowly vs. Herr Berbunch dogfight which quickly turns to Dowly vs. SgtPotato dogfight from Wednesday:

Good fight Spud. Can't say I remember having such a nice scissors fight in a looong time.

And of course, what brought me down was the S.E.5a's inability to perform a loop
that would've been a walk in the park for the Albie5.

And yes, I used externals due to the kingsize seat of the S.E.5a blocking my view to my six.

Seriously, what went through the minds of the people who designed these planes?

SgtPotato · 03-02-12, 03:32 PM

It was a good fight, until Herr berbunch start shooting at me.

He didn't even realize that we're on the same team!

Shoot.Back.

I will have to have a dig around and see what went wrong with my attempts to connect. Strangest thing was that it works just fine in singleplayer...but multiplayer it kept throwing up an access error.

Still, I'm only going to be able to fly on Wednesdays for two more weeks and then I'll be working from then on in.

Dowly · 03-02-12, 03:58 PM

That was strange indeed. Nothing's been changed from the week before,
except for having a new mission which shouldn't cause any errors as I didn't use
anything that wasn't in the game already. Also, Spud joined in with the demo
account, so it can't be that.

How would I find your teamspeak server, I wish to join you gentleman when you all meet next.

I am still pretty new to the sim but I can handle most of the aircraft pretty well and I only fly with full realism settings when I have the choice.

Anyway, hope this is not out of order to ask, I know I am a pretty random arrival.

Good, you can show us what to do

, no, seriously!

The TS server is Arc's, details are probably best found on page one of the DCS Flight Night thread.

I can only speak for myself, but it'd be good to have someone else on board, I'm sure the others will think the same.

@SgtPotato - it was my second MP in RoF, I thought it was just every man (or stem tuber) for himself. My first I shot hardly anything as it was definitely a team thing and I couldn't really see who was who. Apologies, but on the other hand I don't recall hitting you...
