Enforcer57 Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 I know I took some screenies of that He as it made that run tonightand rammed that cargo ship, but for some reason about half the ones I take dont save or show up. Pisses me off cause they were great shots. Anyway, I took some more of the treachery of Von Tonar (Im pretty sure it was him) when I was fighting those corsairs in my faithful Tony, as Lt. Itchy Snatchie, JAAF. There I was in a fight with VT, unable to come within effective range or get a shot at his gyrating machine, when to my horror, He goes after my comrades on the ground that have....."landed", more or less. And there was poor Quaz, having had a bit of, um, trouble on landing. Something to do with a control tower getting in the way or such. But anyway, here he was looking like he was conducting a course in Japanese aircraft construction techniques, when he discovers why the Corsair was called whistling death. My Tony was very fast (as some Seafires found out later), but I couldnt catch this round eyed western devil (barely visible under my left wing, hugging the ground). He went after Quaz like he was a wet rat waiting to be stomped. His 4 20mm had much greater range and hitting power than my tiger tank killing four 50s. He and Dazza thought it was miller sakai time, but ....... Then, he goes vertical on me after making Quazi and machine into buzzard poop and scrap, but i couldnt match the performance of this demonic product of the evil Vought corporation, so he makes another pass on Dazza, who is sitting there with his nav lights on saying "kill me! kill me! Im over here damn it!". I was boiling my engine but was helpless against this evil evil westerner. Then He goes vertical on me again, this time we both made it to our max apogee, but his was slightly higer than mine. He went out of control, falling out of the air in a flat spin. I watched gleefully as I waited for him to dig a hole, but he regained control and kept straffing our base. :evil: He got away with this outrage, but i got revenge on the Allies later leading my flight of drones against FAA Seafires, and helping to wipe out an entire squadron of them. At any rate, we sure have a blast doing this shit. I just wish to god we had this stuff when I was a kid. Quote
JensenPark Posted August 28, 2006 Author Posted August 28, 2006 LOL...that was good. Thought it was Sunflower chasing him. Quote
delta7 Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 last night was one of the best - great turnout and different missions and I thought I was going to wet myself laughing at the TB3 mission and at enforcer trying to shoot down VT and then those I-16 ratas- as Quazi said it must be the best therapy available for free. Quote
DZ9 Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 Haha! I didnt even know that happened, my GF phoned me and i wasnt at the screen! VT you bastige! that'll teach me to sit with my nav lights on- good craic last night Quote
1. DDz Quorum Painless Posted August 28, 2006 1. DDz Quorum Posted August 28, 2006 ~S~ Enforcer , Who says the debrief is boring !!!! LMAO ~S~ Painless Quote
Tonar Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 Yeh, That was great last night !!! Thanks for the shots Enforcer, Too bad I couldn't swing around and shoot you down just to top it off. the only time I shot you down is when I just joined the group and you were on my team LOL!!! Thanks BG for hosting, Thanks everyone for a great turnout and plenty of targets for Psycho to choose besides me. and I love flying those big birds like the HE-111 and the TB3. is it thursday yet?

Enforcer57 Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 VT, was that you that time that shot me down in my FW? I was chasing a Lagg after blasting another one, and I saw tracers fly over my shoulder. I checked and saw no VVS planes, just a friendly, so i went back to chasing. Then I get blasted outta the air, and I start raising hell wondering who was shooting me! Then someone sheepisly says...."oops, that was me. sorry....". I was gonna kick somebody's ass when I got back to base, but I got captured and was put to workin a male brothel catering to nightwitches.........except for the hairy armpits, it wasnt too bad and I forgot about it.....till now. Well last night, I and another 109 (Pooka, I think) were chasing that indestructable bullet absorbing Rata. he was gyrating so violently that I could only make snap shots and hope I hit him. So once when I saw pieces fly past my windscreen, i thought I was hitting him (really close). So when a plane appeared in front of me, I just hosed that sucker down with my two 7.92mm mgs, and I kept hosing him down. Feathers flew all over the place, and I was feeling rather proud of myself....... Until I heard someone say..."who the hell is shooting me?", and I realized that it was a 109 in front of me. I said "oops, that was me. sorry....." I hoped that the 109 made it back, till I saw the message that said "Pooka is blasted outta the air by Enforcer". Ouch. This is the most fun I have that doesnt involve chicks. Quote
Blairgowrie Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 It was a great fun time wasn't it. Great to see Kawilder back in action after his recent illness. Also nice to see Von Tonar fly so well yesterday. You were racking them up there sir. Quote
JensenPark Posted August 28, 2006 Author Posted August 28, 2006 I think each person flying should be required/requested to do a least one screenie shot and put up the description like Enforcer did... Share the fun... Quote
Enforcer57 Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 BTW, how do you save a trak of this? I have a key mapped for quick start record trak whatever, but I wondered if that worked online. I could get some really good stuff if i could record this chaos. Like i said, i had some other really dramatic ones of the He and 110s attacking those Ruskie ships, but they just seem to disapear sometimes. Even after I see them, they just arent there after Ive done some more. Those file names changing must be the cause somehow. Quote
JensenPark Posted August 28, 2006 Author Posted August 28, 2006 recording always works... Rog will tell you how to post a .trk - I've never figured it out. I have the same problem with screen shots. I 'took' five or six of the He111 as well and only ended up with the one. Odd... Quote
1. DDz Quorum B16Enk Posted August 29, 2006 1. DDz Quorum Posted August 29, 2006 Email the trk to me and I'll post it, or I can guide you through using ftp so you upload it yourself . Screenies: IIRC IL2 recycles them, you can only take so many (9?) before it starts to overwrite again. Also online there is a timer that prevents repetitive printscreens (it's a cheat y'know) so best to record a track and play that back grabbing the screens you want. I had a bad time Sunday night, my newly formatted system was working like a dog. All was fine until things started to blow up or smoke, then my fps dropped to 2 or 3 ps . Thought it best to drop out before I caused everyone else problems. The ground strafing mission for instance, I had to fly away from the airfield with the spawing AI as it became a slide show for me Hope to have it sorted by Thursday night Quote
1. DDz Quorum Friar Posted August 30, 2006 1. DDz Quorum Posted August 30, 2006 Having failed on a bombing run on the Dunkirk coast, I try and make a run for it, only to be chased by a few angy hurri's. I put the plane into level autopilot and then jump from gun position to gun position in a desperate attempt to fend my attackers off. This is what they did to me...... Quote
Tonar Posted October 10, 2006 Posted October 10, 2006 Just a couple off shots from sunday night. I was really enjoying my new video card and I loved the night mission we did. Quote
Arsenal Posted October 10, 2006 Posted October 10, 2006 Now I see why we plowed into the ground so quickly. You were busy making screenshots! Quote
Tonar Posted October 10, 2006 Posted October 10, 2006 Nope, I just suck sometimes And I might of been slightly intoxicated from this nice bottle of wine my friend gave me Those shots are brighter on my screen at home. they sure do seam dark here at work. Quote
Blairgowrie Posted October 25, 2006 Posted October 25, 2006 Ok which one of you gay blue guys was flying this beauty last night? Quote
BBloke Posted October 25, 2006 Posted October 25, 2006 Me thinks its a corrupt skin texture!!!!! Quote
delta7 Posted October 25, 2006 Posted October 25, 2006 skin was probably me - the pink baron sweetie Quote
Blairgowrie Posted October 25, 2006 Posted October 25, 2006 That's not pink, that's fuscia. So it was you Sunflower and you didn't even fly with us last night. Quote
