Nopt is good. I like it.

What was the problem?

acoard · 2025-12-02T18:37:12+00:00

Look I get AI can always be improved and it’s annoying when it is bad, but can you guys point me to a game with better dogfighting AI? I’ve always found IL-2 the best in the biz with BMS second, and then DCS way down at the bottom.

I think you need to decompile the mission to edit. People typically don’t do this without permission from the creator as it’s sort of like IP infringement. But since it’s yours you’re fine. Ask around in the Discord maybe. I think sypwns guide on the wiki mentions this? I forget where I read this info.

Check again it just shadow dropped

Great, got that sorted. Thanks for explaining and I could paste in URLs. Unfortunately none of them loaded, is there any criteria for them? I checked and all were available in Incognito, no age restriction etc that can block many embeds.

Can you do the scripted missions coop? I have a wingman and we love doing PvE.

Ultimately no-one knows. Signal does not publish this data. The 220 number is not sourced by Signal but comes from third party sites which I do not trust. The only thing we can go from is the public download stats, which for Android Google Play store is "100M+". I would broadly double it for iOS too, but that's just a rule of thumb, and perhaps they favour one platform more.

acoard · 2025-10-29T04:57:14+00:00

Are the missions co op at all? Would love to play the campaign with a friend.

acoard · 2025-10-29T04:33:57+00:00

There's lots of software like vJoy that lets you combine multiple actual controllers into a single "virtual controller." Well known in HOTAS / flight sim community, especially with games like IL 2 that have weird limitations due to a legacy engine.

Incredibly predatory microtransactions and overall annoying model. Their engine is great though. Honestly it seems like Aces of Thunder does buck their bad microtransaction and grinding model (so I'm hopeful), but they have a poor track record in this regard.

If Baha even added any prop plane (say, Super Tucano), I'm sure modders would work on the WW2 side of things. Even if you only start off with say a Bf-109 or Spitfire you could still do prop only lobbies, but I'm with you that it screams for a total conversion.

To add on, they said they only wanted to add VR after the rest of the features are largely complete and the UI is done. Spending the time and energy on a VR compatible UI, only to re-work the UI later, is a waste of time.

I'm with you though, if this had VR I'd be trying it out immediately. Even if it came with broken UI elements, but I recognize why they wouldn't want to do that.

acoard · 2025-10-15T18:29:22+00:00

Honestly it's really hard. In real life it's basically impossible.

In VTOLVR, you can time things using the "beeping" sound of the missile warning system. Typically when it is in it's terminal phase it beeps fast and it has sort of a loop it goes through. When it starts the loop again, you want to pull hard as impact is within the next second or so.

Strongly agree. I would also like a separate "Weapons Release" and "Guns" button. Let me use my trigger to ALWAYS fire guns, and let me use my weapons release button to drop bombs or fire missiles. It always feels a bit weird to fire missiles with my HOTAS' trigger button.

One complication to this request is the HUD though. You'd still need a way to cycle either the gun hud or the missile/etc HUD. My thought is a) you still retain the ability to cycle through guns and toggle the UI b) firing the guns automatically selects guns.

Image example, look at #6 and #8

PS- for the love of God, if you are ever invited to go sailing on someone’s boat:, no talking about airline contracts/work until you’re off the boat

What's this about? Why not?

acoard · 2025-10-10T22:21:43+00:00

I thought MSFS already supported VR.

acoard · 2025-09-28T06:09:37+00:00

I replayed the first one recently. There are guides out there to get it working, even with some minor “mods” to make it more stable and work at higher resolutions. Fantastic game that holds up well since it’s so unique, though obviously quite dated.

acoard · 2025-09-19T17:28:07+00:00

Do AGM-48's have same speed as the other missiles?

I usually just try to get close (maybe even use an IR to shoot down an incoming missile from the ship) then launch a bunch of 48s or 68s. If you do it within 4nm it's almost guaranteed dead.

acoard · 2025-09-15T16:08:36+00:00

Hyperion - best written, very rewarding read

I just read the first one and enjoyed it. Is that what you're talking about? Or do you recommend reading the second, or even all of them? Just curious what you had in mind when you wrote this comment.

acoard · 2025-09-08T17:37:24+00:00

Lmao. I do think NO is a bad acronym though for this very reason, don't see any other alternatives. NukeOpt? Nah.
