The Sky Is The Limit Beta Out!

Post by **jv_map** » Tue Dec 28, 2004 10:27 pm

A small update on this flyable planes mod I'm working on: I finally decided to put together a beta for everyone to try out. As some of the testers can tell it's great fun to fly especially when there's more pilots around... hopefully I'll be able to set up a test server shortly.

Anyway, no need for more words, just look at the screenshots.

This is really something you guys need to try, it's so fantastic and the flight feeling is just great, I was suprised of it.
I love all the effects, like airplane stall, bullet tracers, and much more!
Come on, a combat flight simulation for AA?, Jv_map tried, and look what he made

For me, it's already fun without fighting.

Thanks JV for this mod, nice job

this is really awesome...I would like to see a 20 man or more server playing this...think that would be a good time, and different from the usual. Ride is smooth and the pyramids are nice

. Just need some heat seeking missles now...maybe some buildings to fly through.

nice

i recommend u to make the bullet traces a little bit faster, they are like slowly flying balls

but pretty good

the mod...

Would like if we could come out of the plane and take a flak and shoot other planes

I ran the map on my server...and 6 of my guys and i ran the map...worked perfectly! Talk about mayhem tho...it was a blast!

P.S. Don't get to close to the opposing teams airfield, those damn AA guns dont miss a beat! And don't think you'll outrun them...lol..

Cheers Jv...

Hmm I haven't noticed that problem before

even though I played it for hours on the mods-r-us server

Actually the only considerable problem found I think was when people would spawn on the runway right before someone taking off, obviously killing both

so I need to fix that I guess

but hey that's a beta for

I had these spawn stalls when I started the map as DM, TeamDM though works fine. You did use TDM?!

The 0.1 scale is likely to be to make the flyable area bigger, isn't it? so we'd have to build all buildings in that size aswell... too bad, no copy/paste.

gear up/down, couldn't this be just a different key, like 'g' for example? i have some problems to fly without switching the gear all the time

You know JV....that wasn't very nice of you to not tell us that the maximum cruising altitude was set at 17,000 feet....lmao

It took me 25 mins to get up that high...i was just about to cut the engine and dive bomb...but to my surprise i went *BOOM*....lol

Can't stop playin the map man, great job for the 4th time!
