I downloaded the Ju 88 C-6 from Nat's
site last night and tried the tank busting
training mission, and after a while it
hung up and I had to hit the reset button
on my PC (ctrl-alt-del didn't work). Anyone
else had such problems?

My system is: FSC Beta, Win 98 (first edition), Voodoo 3 2000 (latest beta drivers), 64Mb RAM, Celeron 300A @ 450.

Thanks

There was another tread about this, apparently (It happened to me to) the game freezes when the Ju 88 gets hit. I don't think anyone found out why though...

Aaron,

this is a known problem of this plane. I haven't been able to fix it for beta 2 (available from the downloads-section). I'm doing some further testing, also on some other aircraft, to get at what might cause this. BTW, taking hits from other aircraft doesn't cause a crash for me, it's just the hits by AAA. Any other experiences?

Peter

Yeah, When I entered the tankbusting mission my wingman just slowly flew into the ground,
and exactly when he hit, the game froze...
Must be something with the damage models right...?

Same here Roy, I took out 4 zero's with it (test mission) before a 37mm Flack hit me and that locked the PC, Reset only.

It's an excellent piece of work, brilliant idea to have so many variations of the same a/c type. Hope you can get the bug sorted soon

OK, beta 3 has just been released, and I hope the bug is gone for good. You can get it at the download-section.
BTW, does anybody want a 7,5cm gun as an optional loadout on this aircraft?

As far as I can see the problem was the Bola (gunpod below cockpit), which was a child-object of the cockpit. I made it a top-level object, and now it works for me. Strange, isn't it? Well, let's keep our fingers crossed.

Roy, for me personally, if the 7.5 can be added at no real trouble to yourself, I'd say bang it in there and let us decide if we use it and how More is always better as far as it goes for me

OK, now it has a 7,5cm gun. I have really found some data on it on the web. Too bad we can't model the problems it had: The blast would sometimes damage the props or the fuselage. I guess that's the reason it never went into production.
