Good News For Lock On

[PanzerMeyer]

These are the fixes which will be on the next patch for Flaming Cliffs. As you can see, major multiplayer fixes will be done.

1.11 Patch Update - 12AUG05
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Work continues on the 1.11 patch and progress is looking quite good. In fact, we got the 1.11 Beta 02 patch version today. Here are some items to look forward to in the upcoming patch (not long now).

- A memory leak caused by the client and host having different scenery settings has been fixed.

- The Starforce copy protection of requesting the CD every time the program is run has been changed to requesting it only once a week.

- Radar lock with F-15C Vertical Scan (VS) mode is no longer instantaneous.

- The F-15C backup compass on the canopy frame now shows correct heading.

- When jumping to another aircraft (A-10A and F-15C), cannon ammunition level is now correct.

- A new config/network/status.lua file has been added. The MP host can now forbid the display of the MP events string during the game.

- The wheels of client aircraft now turn.

- Force Feedback support to aircraft using the Standard Flight Model (SFM) has been improved.

- The "Press S" client message is no longer displayed at the start of a multiplayer game.

- The multiplayer stutter and LOD fixes have been integrated into the 1.11 patch.

- Overall multiplayer stability and smoothness of play has been increased.

Have to say, I DO miss the TrackIR ability of this Lock-On. And with a helo, it must be pretty cool. Must take a look at Gunship with TrackIR, see if it will work.
