<r> I have to agree, this is a whole different experience compared to the other major prop sims. I must have only got 3 or 4 kills today just messing around in the "Instant Action" but I can already see that this is a keeper. The flight model (damn it's hard to take off in the spit!), the gunnery ...

As a side note, I've had the game for ages. Initially, it was pretty unstable...but they now have it to the point where it is very stable...although there are still people who have teething issues when they first try to run it, normally due ...

<t> Thinking of buying this one as I missed it when it was on the shelves here. My questions concern the download version...<br/>
<br/>
1) Will the download version accept patches just like the regular retail versions? and any user mods if any exist for this sim? I ask this because in the past I ...

I just wanted to pipe in here and say that the patch addresses the bulk of my issues (music during combat and reduction in speed due to damage) you guys are alright

Excellent, thanks for the rapid reply, one last thing that I remembered...

I found it quite annoying that the background music cuts out duing the attack animations can this function be removed or toggled?

1) I'd like to see damage to ships cause a larger reduction in speed, right now as it is damage seems to do very little.

2) More randomization of starting conditions.

looking nice, keep up the excellent work.

Great to hear that a patch is on it's way.

1) Stuff can withdraw, so a successful conclusion is ALWAYS in doubt.<br/>
<br/>
2) The IJN appears to have huge bonuses built in for night combat.<br/>
<br/>
3) Combine items 1 & 2 above, and it should be a central tenet of U.S ...

I caught up with the japanese transports in the Midway scenario after slaughtering the jap flattops like a wolf among sheep [:D] but found the same thing happening with them continuing to break contact even though their speed was only 10 kt vs my 33 kts.... [:@]

Thanks for the game, was one of the best mp games I've played in a long time.&nbsp;

3. F4F-3 Wildcat had 4 x .50 cal.; F4F-4 had 6 x .50 cal., same as Hellcat and Corsair

you're absolutely right, I just checked the editor... my mistake

<t> Thanks for the rapid response, post war stuff would of course be pure fantasy.&nbsp; I only bring up the point concerning fire power levels because of the large difference in armaments. For example if the F4U Corsair is rated at a 6 and it is armed with 6 X .50 mgs what rating would you give a ...

<t> Alright so I love the game and have started to mess around with a few things and while the potential is huge I have some questions; in no particular order...<br/>
<br/>
1) Can we have an option that keeps the music playing during the combat animation? I find it very annoying that during ...

Hellcat -- thanks for that link to audacity[&o]. The 1st mp3 --> oog converter I found, converted the VaS music files, but CAW played'em too dang fast [:(]. Audicity has worked great on the 3 I've converted so far.<SM sm="happy0065.gif">[sm ...

<t> load up the pearl harbor scenario in the editor, if you scroll through the ship classes, taskgroups, and aircraft types you'll see that someone already included them in the scenario, they've even been placed.&nbsp; It looks like something needs to be toggle though to activate it though and I ...

It's a pretty standard file format, look in the music folder they are in ogg format. Do a google search for "audacity" it's a free music editor with a converter and you'll be set. Just convert the wav files or mp3's and dump them in the music folder.

If only the center mouse button could be used for panning, would be just like using AutoCAD&nbsp;[8D]&nbsp;

<t> Just to pipe in...<br/>
<br/>
The interface is awesome, a one or two things that seem a bit strange to me though.&nbsp; To detach ships are very specific situations required because it seems I can't do it whenever I want to. <br/>
<br/>
Oh and the editing aspects are awesome, I already threw ...

<t> Sent my carriers all far north of wake at full speed and engaged the japanese cvs while their strike on wake was heading home.&nbsp; Worked out pretty good for me sank both enemey cv's.&nbsp; But I lost some of the supply group enroute to wake, still got a decisive victory though.&nbsp;[8D]</t>
