4.11 General debugging

Yes.

1. To offset engine torque.

2. And i'm not totally sure of this one, to help a long torpedo clear the prop. (The Stuka used a trapeeze for the same reason).

Can we fix the Japanese icons when selecting another skin than the Defaults because when I select a blank skin on a Japanese fighter like the Ki-61, then I realize a split second later, The Japanese icon that is suppose to be on the skin when you have the markings on option selected is not there. Can you fix that DT ? Just take a look on all other skins in other Japanese planes that isn't defaults including blank skins downloaded from the web and test all Axis markings and you might see the problem.

Was flying the Ju88 this evening testing out 6dof (5dof) mouse and keyboard when I noticed some visual glitches I'd not noticed until now regarding the pilots side and front quater window frames invollving several tears and polygons out of place as can been seen below, the area with the dashes is were the worst tears can be found:



I exited and re-strated the game several times, however there was no change so I then launched my backup installation 4.11.1 which does not have any 6dof keys assigned, but the same glitches were also evident here as well.

As I said I had not noticed them until today and the glitches appear on all three 88s, I do not know how long these glitches have existed as I only currently have 4.11.1 (all be it twice) installed so can not check prior releases without doing other re-installations, so does everbody else have the same glitch issues on the 88s?

If so, could TD possibly take a look and maybe even try and fix the issue before the release of 4.12 (pretty please).

Ok I been searching Google high and low for past images of the Ju88 cockpit. And it would appear most of the frame issued mentioned above have been there for a long, long time and I have even incorrectly labelled the pilots sliding widow handle as a fault “duh”, I will have to edit my original image above to reflect these findings, yet can not access Photobucket during business hours ( can't even see my own images ).

That said the tear/holes in the front pillar of the sliding widow seems not to be evident in anything that I have found thus far and is something I just can not recall ever seeing in the past. I guess once I noticed the tear which is now quite distracting my mind starting inventing other problems.

For reference here are the original Ubi pages Ju88 implementation images and as you can see the previously high-lighted pillar seems to have no tears or holes in evidence.





Also, and sorry, but come to think of it, maybe this post should be in the 6DOF debugging thread instead? If so I raise it there instead.

While observing an Fw 189 in flight, I noticed the flaps aren't connected to the wings.

There are flaps "painted" on the underside of the wing, but they are static. The actual flaps are below these, floating in mid air. It appears both use the same texture.

From what I can find, the real aircraft didn't have these offset flaps. So believe it to be a "bug" in the model.

I checked, all 3 variants have this issue in my installation as well.

Something wrong with the needle of the boost gauge in the MC.202 cockpit
