I am checking on that now, I have an email out to see if I can give our password out. I might have to PM it to anyone that is interested rather than posting it.

Ok, I have checked with a higher power and it has been ok'd to give out the log-in information to our TS3 server.

(Edited by Snacko)

Since this thread has been moved to the new 'public' RoF forum, the private TS3 info has been removed from this post.

Please PM Propnut here for the Teamspeak Info.

Thanks,

Snack

HI again Propnut !

I just wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed flying coops on the multiplayer mode with you guys tonight. It was really a lot of fun and I have learned quite a bit about engine settings on different airplanes. I'll be there also next week. Great bunch of friendly guys that made me feel welcome and I really had a good time.

Thanks again

Remember the password to the TS3 server is case sensitive, so the N and the D are capitalized. One into the TS3 server we will provide the game server password. I hope to see more of you this Monday night. Thanks to MadTrooper for joining us last Monday night!

War Hawks Mission Briefing Day 17

(somewhere near the city of Verdun)

June 1, 1918 ~10:30

Good Morning, Gentlemen of the War Hawks!

The British are interested to learn more about the effectiveness of bombs dropped from an aircraft on hardened gun emplacements. Undoubtedly due to the War Hawk's efficiency dealing with the artillery threats in the past, they feel we're best suited for this task.

There are several concrete pillboxes located in and near the German lines to the North West of Verdun, just beyond the effective range of artillery. I think it doubtful that our 20 lb bombs will do more than scratch them, but there are typically other defenses surrounding these pillboxes that will probably suffer as a result of the attack. The British will have an observer in the air to watch the whole show, so let's make sure we at least score a few hits on the concrete! If we're lucky, the observer will have an escort that can provide some sense of cover during the operation.

I don't need to tell you how dangerous attacks on the trenches can be. After locating the targets, we'll first fly beyond them, and then dive toward France before dropping bombs on the back doors of the pillboxes. Climb toward France before turning to repeat the attack.

The Germans usually have patrols in the air along the trenches, including the DVII or Albatross DVa types. The clouds are heavy and low today, with winds ranging from 2-3 Mps.

Good luck to you all!

This looks like lots of fun. You can count me in as soon as I recover from the $300+ I just invested in my new video card!

BA, it would be great if you could joint us. As you already know, this is a great flight sim.

I’m still using an old Track IR2.

How necessary is it to have a newer version with 6dof?

Would I be missing a lot?

I've only flown the Demo (and the Beta), but from that limited experience I will say that it's really useful to be able to look around all the bracing and the engine and etc. You would have little trouble flying the Spad but the view forward isn't good on planes like the Albatross. The view to the rear, however is spectacular on these planes.

Yeh BA Joint us, I'm needing some of the medicinal.

Trib, I'd try it with the old TIR before investing, myself.

[PropNut]

Tribunus, I would say yes. It is worth upgrading your Track IR to better enjoy Rise of Flight. I find myself rubber necking (and because of this I like the "broken neck" feature of rise of flight) while playing this game. It is, in my opinion, visually stunning, and the ability to slide over and look down below your aircraft without the need to tilt the plane is amazing.

An alternative to upgrading TrackIR is using Freetrack. I use Freetrack in my simpit and TrackIR 5 on my desktop (purchased to play Arma2 with but I often do a quick RoF or IL-2 mission on the desktop with an X52). I see very little difference between the two other than the amount of tweaking needed with Freetrack compared to TrackIR (but hey, it is free afterall). If you want further information check out http://www.free-track.net/english/

I use it with a Q6600 and Windows 7 64-bit and a cheap walmart Logitech webcam (http://www.walmart.com/ip/Logitech-QuickCam-IM-Plus/10992448) with no problems at all. I made a three LED headset that connects to my headphones.

PM me if you want help setting up your own Freetrack system.

MT, dont worry...I understood you

Toad and BadAim, yes it would be great if you guys could join us for some co-ops.
