yummy. and thats before i overclock the cpu a bit more, and get a new Gfx card.

now thats what i'm talking about really nice screens. think it ended 5 each for you and me tom!!!!! should of stuck a couple in from the formation landing as well! enjoyed those missions last night mayhem, thanks for hosting.

mere details, lol. besides, can't shoot at anyone with a PPL. (not legally anyway) and as we know, its all about guns guns guns......

now that would make a quality youtube vid, as long as it wasn't me that said, i want one!

it will be fine.

just been released over at ubi. guess i'm going to hold of spending any money for the mo, all looks very good

odd, i had to manually create the spit folders, with a 4.09-4.10. That is weird... Are you sure? Yes No Cancel 100% sure. I only have a 4.10 derived from 4.09, haven't done it through UP. appears not just me, http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/23110283/m/8321093009?r=9741006009#9741006009

happy birthday Mr P, hope its been epic

woot, thinking about taking the last week of march off.......

hi mate, have a great day

meths?

unless there made from delta wood, nothing to do with me either....

i guess it depends on whether in a lone plane you think you should be able to survive doing what i did in that last vid. personally i don't really. however, take a few of you with one drawing the flak, its a different story altogether. to attack targets like that you need and should have multiple planes working together. I think this is what is upsetting people really now, the fact that you can't do it on your own anymore, without great risk. No more Rambo. for the record, i had about a 75%+ survivability rate with the corsair runs (is a tough plane), and yes if i'd come in in the 51 like that agaisn't something firing back i would of died for sure, but that vid was made when people were saying that skip bombing was impossible full stop now, and that was just to show that it isn't.

theres more useful info in this thread its full of people whining that they can't game the game anymore.

LOL, i've already dropped that 'bomb' over at the banana forums

I'm still messing around with sounds for 4.10 at the moment, thats just what happens to be in currently left over from the last round of testing, lol. whatever there shooting, they bloody well hurt if they hit!

The vids above, were just against unarmed targets, i originally recorded because people were saying skip bombing was impossible, and i disagreed, lol. Against a heavily armed target, you must come in always on a curved approach, both in the vertical and horizontal. Here is me against a 1945 DD destroyer, a real nasty flak ship. The key is to only be straight and level for the very moment you drop your bombs. (first run i only hit with one bomb due to me being a poor shot, second run nail it, vid shows internal and external for both runs.) I'd be lying if i said they were the first two attempts i made, but to start with i wasn't taking enough bombage to sink it, so i reflew, and a copule of times i was on externals after the bomb drop to see if i'd hit (they did), and not concentrating on getting out of the flak zone, and thought it would look piss poor on a vid, getting pinged afterwards, when if i'd gone to the deck i'd of been alright. Only once did i get shot down by aa on my way to target, and once i ripped my wings off on the approach because of the G limit and carrying 3000lbs worth of bombs! The most vulnerable time in the run is the moments after the drop, between dropping and getting back down to 0m of the deck, by far. Even so, should one plane really be able to do what i just did in game in reality, i think not. The only sensible way to attack heavily defended ground targets is with multipul planes attacking at once splitting the defensive fire.

its worse, but then it was much to easy before. besides, you can fly in at 10m, and pop up to 40m just for the bomb release, no reason why you have to come in at 40m all the way. I still come in as fast as possible, no need to slow down, unless your dropping torps.

heres the internal shot of the 51 bombing the land targets from the end of the first vid linked above, won't let me put 3 vids in one reply!

your bombs now need to fall for at least 2 seconds now. in level flight that equates to about 35-40m. I'm using a bomb delay of at least 3 secs now as well for 500 bombs, will need even more for the really big stuff. heres some skip bombing vids i made just after 4.10 came out, also at the end of the first vid some ground targets. and in a betty, mainly because someone over at ubi said it was impossible, lol. If you are in a downward dive when you release, you will obviously have to release higher, as you are putting extra downward acceleration on the bomb as well.

I'm using the 5.1 beta. re profile, try here, fruitbats.xml
