Lock On 1.01 Patch Readme
05 January 2004

This is the first patch for Lock On: Modern Air Combat and is designed to address many of the significant bugs identified with the initial release of the product. This patch is however not designed to fix all identified bugs. We plan to provide additional patch(es) that will address problems not fixed in this first patch.

Please note that due to several items being fixed in the patch, some of the training missions will not play back correctly now. If you wish to play all the training missions, we suggest that you only apply the patch after doing so. A training mission correction patch is planned.


--- Corrections List ---

Windows 98 and Windows ME support greatly improved. However, please note that users using these operating systems may encounter instability if they use the AWACS view (F10) and then cycle between the F1 and F2 views.

Track to AVI tool is now working correctly. AVI files will be saved in the Movies folder.

The damage model for the Su-33 has been corrected.

Corrected target loss problems for some air defense complexes such as S-300PS and Patriot.

Removed "Category" column from Debrief Event Log.

Players can now record voice-overs for Tracks.

Limited helicopter numbers from 1 – 10.

Fixed algorithm of finding course of routes in mission editor.

Corrected wind-related flight effects for player and AI aircraft.

Corrected engine behavior after aerial refueling.

Corrected zero thrust phenomena in A-10 when flying at M>0.8.

Expanded range of R-60 in rear hemisphere.

Increased engine impulse for MICA missiles.

Values RCS for some planes and helicopters are adjusted.

Decreased maximum G for F-15C at low speed.

Corrected collisions for Mirage-2000 and, KAMAZ.

BANO, afterburner and other effects will not cast shadows now.

ECM was removed from MiG-25PS.

The F-117 has no chaffs or flares now.

Incorrect route saving from state restoring is fixed both for Human and AI.

AWACS-View is now working in saved state games.

Corrected keyboard-only pitch control. Disabled automatic return to the neutral position.

Disabled mouse speed scaling for TrackIR.

Host can now respawn in multiplayer.

Missile and gun accuracy is greatly increased in multiplayer.

nForce2 lag problems have been significantly reduced. However, if the game consists of six or more players, lag may be observed.

--- Play Notes ---

Missile ranges. Players should understand that due to a variety of factors, actual missile ranges can be far less than maximum ranges stated in various media. Two large factors include:

1- Target aspect. If the target is flying towards you, your acceptable launch range will be far greater than a target flying away from your or perpendicular to you. When the target is flying towards you, the target is thus flying to the missile and greatly increasing the range at which the shot can first be taken. If however the target turns away after the shot is taken, the missile may not have the energy to reach the target. This is particularly true when taking a shot at long range.

2- Altitude. The altitude of you and the target can be a significant factor in range. At lower altitudes, the air is much thicker and induces a great amount of drag on the missile. After a few seconds missile of motor burn at launch, most air-to-air missiles coast the remaining distance to reach the target. If flying through the thick air of lower altitudes, the range at which the missile can reach is far shorter then when launched at high altitude. The difference between a shot taken at 5,000 feet and 30,000 feet is dramatic.

ECM effect. If flying the F-15C and trying to acquire a target on radar, this will be difficult if the target is employing Electronic Counter Measures (ECM). Please note that some aircraft and have internal jammers and not just ECM pods. If the target is employing ECM, you will likely not attain a radar track on the target until under 10 nm. The Russian ECM systems are very effective. To combat this, the F-15C can take advantage of the Home On Jam (HOJ) launch mode. This can be used with both the AIM-7 and AIM-120. Simply lock the TDC cursor on the jamming strobe on the VSD to lock. Once fired, the missile will automatically home in on the target as long as the ECM is active. This can be very effective.

dovrebbe correggere alcuni bugs come il supporto del force feedback per alcuni joystick , bugs relative ad imprecisioni sugli strumenti degli aerei, rimuovere i casi di schermate blu...che personalmente non ho mai avuto ad alcuni ha migliorato le prestazioni per me è stato cosi in effetti è piu fluido...

Ma allora non c'è nessuna patch per tradurlo in italiano??
