Hi guys, I agree great mods, thanks Hunin. Does anybody know where to dl Fucida's hole filling mod??

This way i think

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello guys.
A few days ago (until today) my squadmates had reported that when I'm flying Bf109s my plane looks like damaged with a black smoke from my engine. I asked them to take some screens. I'll post as soon as I get them.

I've also noticed some pilots with the same smoke.

In my screens or even recorded tracks it doesn't show. But other pilots can see that.

I've read in other post that the problem (the poster reported the problem with Spitfire) could be solved reinstalling AC Installer. I did it but the bug wasn't solved.

Does anyone here had noticed the same problem?
Is there anyway to solve that?

thanks,

From Strafe just here.


Hello guys,

I've just been warned about this bug and i immediately did some tests with team-mates of my squad.

Yes,the AHS mod is causing this bug :evil:


Here are the details

It concerns ONLY the Me109-F4 and is linked to the code from Ju88-Mistel i inserted into the 109-F4 java code,although i didn't touch FM/EM/DM... :roll:

So,if you or every player around you have installed the AHS mod,then you and the other players won't see NO BUG AT ALL with the 109-F4.

On this screen,Tomio and i are using the AHS mod,no soucy:



BUT,

If some players around you haven't installed the AHS mod,then those players will see the smoke behind the players' 109-F4 that have installed the AHS mod.

On this screen,only Tomio (in backscreen) is using the AHS mod,Me: Nothing:



After having tested ALL OF the 15 standard Bf-109 of the game with my AHS mod,both in Dogfight & COOP missions,it appears that ONLY the 109-F4 shows this smoke problem.

This is logically related to the Ju88-Mistel java code that i inserted into the 109-F4 code.

A rapid trick would be to apply the "AHS code only" into the F4 code,leaving the Ju88-Mistel compatibility out,but i prefer to resolve the bug,then it will take me sometime.

[EDIT]

QUICK-FIX

While searching to definitely correct this smoke bug,i post this quick FIX containing two files that will permitt you to use the Me109-F4:



File 1/ "Me109-F4 AHS Only":

Intended for OnLine Play/Dogfights:

Inside this folder,you'll find one file containing Me109-F4 data with the All-Holes-Solved mod only.
Thus,the F4 won't make smoke anymore and will keep the AHS mod features like the new ejection procedure,
wings/engine-hood holes solved like every other Me109-E/F2/G/K/Z
Nevertheless,this file will prevent you to use the Ju88-Mistel with the Me109-F4.
(as this is the Ju88-Mistel java code that causes the smoke bug!)
To use it,do a copy/paste into the "Me109-AHS with F4Mistel AWFC/WOFC" folder into your MODS folder.



File 2/ "Me109-F4 AHS + Ju88-Mistel Compatibility":

Intended for OffLine Play/Coop Missions with Ju88-Mistel:

Inside this folder,you'll find one file containing Me109-F4 data with the All-Holes-Solved mod + the Ju88-Mistel
compatibility.
This will permitt you to use the 109-F4 with the Ju88-Mistel,but also with the smoke bug.
So,to play without being betrayed by the smoke bug,i strongly advise you to use this file only when:
-OFFLINE PLAY with Ju88 Mistel.
-COOP MISSIONS in which you'll have to ensure that every participant has installed the stock AHS mod before
playing (so as no 109-F4 flyers could be betrayed by the smokes
To use it,do a copy/paste into the "Me109-AHS with F4Mistel AWFC/WOFC" folder into your MODS folder.


All is detailed in the README FILE.

In both cases,the Me109-F4 keeps the AHS features like wings/engine-hood holes solved and the new ejection procedure.
