Thx for the install advice guys!

I can pretty much confirm that the Lofte bombsight is working perfectly in the HE-111. I just finished a bombing run on ATAG and found the following.

-Bombsight altitude now displays the more accurate data.

Instead of,

4200m
4200m
4300m
4300m

in now reads,

4280m
4290m
4300m
4310m

-You need to convert IAS to TAS

-Crosshairs track perfectly

-Bombs fall behind the crosshair


I was too high to see the order of the bombs going off so I'm not sure if they're still exploding backwards. I was jumped by a fighter just before drop, and he either responded to my pleas to leave me alone until I got my bombs off, or my AI gunner hit him hard enough to scare him off. Either way, I was just so excited to see the Lofte working this well!

Thanks for the patch b6 and MG crew, look forwards to giving it a good thrashing once its installed :)

Wonderful! I hated counting the sight altitude and rechecking it over and over. Now you can easily get this setup. Good job guys! Nice fix for the bombers!

Dano's torrent link was very fast for me 2.mbs/sec....Cheers Dano. Seeding now (Virgin connection though with a 20mb download, but relatively slow upload).

I've set "bandwith allocation" to "unlimited" but I'm not a pro with these things and not sure how or if I can make it any faster. Suppose every little helps though.

Keller, you say the bombs hit behind the crosshairs. Are they pretty close now? I.e. the altitude 'corrections' not necessary now? Travelling at the moment so can't test.

See my edited post for one :) I know I've seen more. I think a kittyhawk did the same in the pacific, coming back with massive damage to structure of the wing.

I don't count the modern aircraft photos (like the other one someone posted) since they've got all kinds of computery stuff to help with stabilzation.

Doesn't really matter. It may be that the aircraft in CloD are too controllable with that much wing off, but there should be a degree of damage that still allows you to control the aircraft reasonably (unable to dogfight or do anything else but struggle with it home).

Can't wait to start testing! Patch just finished dl'ing. Woo!

But then again, I've never flown a badly damaged hurricane in real life, so maybe you're right.

Looking forward to the patch. Thanks B6.

Edit: Quick search brought up this one.. http://www.topdesignmag.com/wp-conte...1_G.sized_.jpg

They managed to return to the fleet and crash landed there in this one.
