I think I have narrowed down what the problem could be with my tiger 2 crashing the host in online games, it maybe the same problem with the ai not working, anyways I need help to test this out. First download the tiger at: www.mosquitonet.com/~blodgett/panzer2.4.zip
then unpack it to your fighter squadron dir. It will create a tigerII folder in your media/aircraft folder. Then join me in an online test, or create a mission to test with another player with ONLY 2 tigers in the mission, both must be manned by a player. Also do not switch to the main gun as this involves ai taking over the pilots station and will crash for sure. this is just to test, if 2 of you can drive tigers around online, we are 1 step closer to the battle of the bulge.If you have enough players for the test, make a mission with that many tigerII's and run it, again all tanks must be player operated, and you cannot switch to the main gun position online as it will crash the host.
Make mission on flat surface, as Im not sure I have the speed/climbing right in this version. Try it offline for to blow off parts, it will also crash here sometimes when a certain part(s) blow up. Well Ill be back at 10 alaska time which is 11 pacific. I have to play hockey...real life, but I missed the last game and my team lost to an all woman team.. I'm a defenseman, we would never have lost if I was there methinks (Womens team is pretty good, but...). Another test involves going ahead and running it online with more than 2 players, and switching to the gun positions, now I Know it will crash the host, but will the other players crash? (when I tested this a few weeks ago with 2 players, the host would crash but the other player was ok...weird stuff. [This message has been edited by Archy (edited 01-05-2000).] IP: Logged |

Great News!
Luny and I were able to successful drive the tiger II online tonite. It will still crash if you switch to the gun position with the engine running, but I have an idea to make it a 1 crew vehicle- the pilot. I wonder if I could map the turret as ailerons, and the main gun as elevators, and make the pilot position a subobject of the turret if we could both drive and turn the turret at the same time, well Im off to test this.

Spyder, Zoycite and me just tried a 3 tigers mission and it worked well. Zoycite was able to get into the turret. But Spyder (hosting) seems to have crashed at that time.
I cant say for sure though, since we lost him altogether when it happened. I ll let you know for the F7/Engine start thing offline.------------------
