HSFX5.0.1's A6M series are JapanCat's MOD.
Not Daidalos default.

JapanCat's A6Ms are not compatible with default at skins.

HSFX5.0.1's A6Ms need skins "for JapanCat's".

Does HSFX5.0.1 Dedicated Server or default ship "Tirpitz" have a bug?

At first, I think it is caused by default 4.10.1m Tirpitz, and make a Topic at here.
https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,14834.0.html

But my friend test 4.10.1mDS and Tirpitz, no problem.
I try again, 4.10.1mDS has no problem (even IL2 Server Commander has some problem at Tirpitz).

Next I retry to test HSFX5.0.1's DS and Tirpitz.
It's a trouble.
"Ship" Tirpitz shows error message "Can't create chief '0_Chief'" and doesn't move in map.
"Stationary Ship" Tirpitz shows error message "SPAWN: Can't create Ship object" and disappearance.
Other Ship, Stationary Ship objects have no problem.
Only Tirpitz (I have found now).

I can't decide "HSFX's bug" or "Tirpitz's bug", but tell you this at here.
Thanks.

Its a bug with the ship I think Western. (we put an experimental catapult on it, its not mentioned in the read me. But I think we should have removed it again.)

In the short term use the Bismark instead. Will look into it.  (also the F86 fuel loadout that you mentioned.)

All right.

I have the same problem at other ship as Tirpitz yesterday.
But then I set many type ships on a map, what ship causing isn't able to know.
When I have spare time, I will find some causing ship.


By the way... this is not HSFX's bug but about ship.
in Files/.../ships.ini
[Destroyer_USSR_Type7]
and
[Destroyer_USSR_Type7_44]
exist. They are converted from technics.ini to ships.ini at 4.10m patch (I see).

A little bug on HSFX5.0.1's A6M3. We found.

"A6M3,1942" has to have cut off wing span. it is -32.
But 5.0.1's "A6M3,1942" has curved wing span like -22 or -21.

HSFX5.0.1 provides us more "A6M3", then "A6M3-32, 1942*" and "A6M3-32kai, 1942*" are right at wing span.
We can use them.
Then "A6M3,1942"'s bug is not serious to us.

The MIG 3 Field Mod 1941* canape seems to stay open in my HSFX 5.00/5/01.  All of the rest of the MIG's open and close just fine.

I have been having an absolutely grand time these past few weeks playing this new HSFX.  I love it.  It has just made a completely new game for me.

I even got talked into going online again after a two  year absence from online play.  I still prefer offline play though.

My hat is off to all of you great il2 mod champions for making a great game even better.

I salute you  all  !

That is intentional, in fact that is the sole purpose of this field mod. Russian canopies early in the war were notorious for their low quality glass (often with a yellow tint and bad optical properties causing distortions) and poor overall built. In many cases due to combat damage the pilots found it very difficult or even impossible to open the canopy to escape - that is why many pilots preferred to fly with open cockpits early on - among these pilots is said to be Alexander Pokryshkin

Post by: Yardstick on April 07, 2011, 08:42:50 AM
I posted this in 'tech help' but is is probably more relevant here.

I have been experimenting with the blind approach missions that came with 4.101 - got to say I thought I was a reasonble virtual pilot until I tried a few VFR approaches at night   However, HSFX seems to have included the nav light change that reduces the visable distance to 100m or so.  Unfortunately, this also appears to have castrated the viewing distance for the runway lights rendering blind landings impossible.   I tried a stock 4.101 install and everything was fine, so it does appear to be an HSFX effect.

Is this a deleberate choice or a bug that has slipped into HSFX 5.0.1?  Either way does anyone have a fix for it please?
Title: Re: HSFX 5.0.1 Hotfix
Post by: CharlieChap on April 07, 2011, 09:43:08 AM
The 4.10 nighttime environment makes everything dimmer (including lights we discovered   >:( ).

If you switch on 'Effects low'  (Stock effects)  with jsgme for nighttime operation, you will get default lights and view distances, and the other stock effects ae not so bad in the dark (eg you cannot see the smoke etc anyway).
We will redo this aspect in a future update.
Title: Re: HSFX 5.0.1 Hotfix
Post by: Yardstick on April 07, 2011, 11:31:00 AM
Brilliant thanks for the tip about low effects.  Look forward to the future updates.

Great package btw - thanks for all your teams efforts and those of all the modders.

Found another potentail bug.  The gunsight reticule in the F-86 is not displaying properly.  I see the centre pipper but the ring is missing.  Seems to work fine in my old HSFX 4 install.

Post by: squiffy on April 12, 2011, 11:53:51 PM
I noted Yardstick's observation also...

I noticed that the following aircraft do not eject shells when firing...

P-51D-20NA
P-51D-25NA
P-51D-30NA
P-47D-22
P-47D-27
P-47D-27 late

All P-38's except the P-38L late

there maybe more, still checking.  other fighters with .50's seem ok (F4U's, F4F's, F6F's etc)

Other than this minor issue, splendid job!  I had a great time with HSFX 4.1, and now I'm enjoying 5.  Keep up the good work!

This is a bit request.
About Ships' stack smoke.

Here is a compare HSFX5(PERFECT Texture) with 4.10.1m default.
(https://www.mediafire.com/imgbnc.php/8135cde8148136d59617659ac2cb4fe43b4ede45917112987124759b57bbc9e16g.jpg)

IJN Carriers have obliquely downward stacks, not to disturb air flow for landing airplanes.
Their smoke are discharging vigorously downward (using sea water cooling).
So.
In this case, 4.10.1m default smoke is more realistic.
HSFX5's smoke looks like leak from stack.
How is this update?

In many cases, HSFX5's visuals looks too well for me.
This smoke is only point bad.

Have you check that both wind condition (in FMB menu) are the same in both cases?
Title: Re: HSFX 5.0.1 Hotfix
Post by: western0221 on April 14, 2011, 01:00:28 AM
Yes.
Wind condition is equal. No wind 0m/s.
Ships speed is also equal. (Akagi 30km/s, Shokaku 31km/h)
Title: Re: HSFX 5.0.1 Hotfix
Post by: Whiskey_Sierra_972 on April 14, 2011, 01:46:44 AM
Have you check the smoke from another angle?

Mine is like this in HSFX 5.0.1 map Truck Lagoon weather Clear no wind:

Hi walter_solito!

I'm looking at your screen shot and feel like "smoke leaking from stacks" , "not discharging downward", too.

This is Zuikaku's real photo. On Touch and Go training.
see smoke discharging downward.
(http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~un3k-mn/ren-zui10.jpg)

And this is a Akagi model picture. Not photo. But Japanese have Carrire stack&smoke image as this.
http://3k-hobby.deci.jp/ship/select_item.php?id=A123

Smoke doesn't float up fuluffy like HSFX5.

Post by: Whiskey_Sierra_972 on April 15, 2011, 09:13:52 AM
Hi mate!

I apologize my misunderstanding!

I understood that the smoke are hampering the deck operation by going over it and not that you mean how the smoke historically went down from stack to sea!!!

Since the smoke is elaborated by a file that manage the way it appear what about try to chang the direction of motion from upward to downward?

If the smoke is originated by the game engine where the stack end it should fall down but with the same motion of particles....

I'm unable to extract the file but what about contact Potenz or HolyGrail or Benitomuso?

Mayb they have the files extracted and can also create a dedicated smoke effect for all IJN carriers!

I'll link this tread in thier main effect development tread: https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,6631.0.html

All the best!

I had some buggious experiences as well, in HSFX 5.0 & HSFX 5.0.1 Hotfix, using along with SAS Modact for HSFX.
6DOF, Catapoult & CTO MOD doesn't work in any setting as it should in MODS folder, JSGME or HSFX activated game.
Catapults reads to be already on by default, so I added lines to .mis files and conf.ini regarding the HSFX ReadMe.
With Carrrier T/O enabled all it does, it gives me new folded Wing at spawn and plane alignment. Catapult doesn't work by default, per added line or with CTO Mod "on". Tried using an older Mod for CTO, this gives me Malone's old Carrier/Catapult Freeze-CTD error, as far as planes begin unfolding wings, an explosion strikes, as the wings of all planes crash and with it my rig.
Works only when I'm spawning alone, can't push Autopilot, gets me same CTD, but Catapult worked.???
It wouldn't surprise me if I can't get to use these Mods in UP 3 too.

With HSFX I encountered Problems using the Recon Emils, I had no other Bf 109 Mod activated, so it changed somehow POV of my Stock E-7s, the whole cockpit mesh was moved and stretched. Deleting the Recon Emils solved the Prob.
Besides these old/new Probs it works flawlessly, really enjoying it despite some limitations.

Hi gents, usually 4.09m (HSFX and UP with Histo) or ModAct for me, but today I applied the patch to test a specific aircraft.
Could it be the latest buttons is not compatible? I crashed with it, as soon as I reapplied the HSFX5 buttons, all was good. Will try again, maybe I patched after inserting the new SAS buttons. ;)

I think I will start this install every day just to hear those kickarse flyby sounds! The Mustang! Wow!
Also liked its FM on a first test with the HSFX5 buttons.

I find a new bug at "Bomb Bay Door Open/Close" and Track recording/playing.

When I fly on B-25 and manually Open/Close Bomb Bay Door,
on real-time chase view Bomb Bay Door shows Open/Close as I manupelate.

But recording Track and after back to MainMenu and playing the Track, Bomb Bay Door doesn't Open/Close in B-25 3D graphic.
At inflight messege window, "Bomb Bay Door Open" message and "Bomb Bay Door Close" message are shown as I did.
At time of bombs away, Door automatically open and close in 3D graphic.

Other AI B-25 are seen as Bomb Bay Door manually Open/Close on Track playing.
This problem is only Player fly's and "Track".
