Re: 🔴 OPEN BUG: Traffic Too Dense
Crashes fixed, I guess … the next version comes with traffic spread out over 10 routes instead of crammed into one. The routes are arbitrary for now; I should look up real air traffic routes over that region some time.

Re: EF2000 .map files
Oh wow this is so amazing! Can’t wait to decode it. We have moving maps in EF2000 and a tiled moving map in F22, so it can’t be that hard implementing it, right? 😁

🚫 CLOSED BUG: Wrong 747 Scale
This one is extremly minor but creeps me out. I treat all 747s the same, except for rendering different shapes based on their nationality. So they should all look the same except for a few color differences. Most 747s look correctly like this: image.png (Note contrails starting behind engines) But t...

Re: EF2000 Hidden Music Files
there are only 8 more files of exactly 40000 bytes, so only 4 worlds left. The other suffixes, _st etc don't seem to work. I almost forgot: Please also try the new level names with .col , .pal , and .lbm ! I’m especially interested in finding the correct palettes for the five(!) Angola/Korea levels...

Re: EF2000 Hidden Music Files
Tim This world is fantastic! It does have a few polygon glitches, but the terrain design is just amazing. So lovely to look at. Almost Norway quality here. image.png Note that there are very few towns, and absolutely no airfields. So this map may have been created early during development, when air...

Re: 🔴 OPEN BUG: Traffic Too Dense
This is escalating. Whenever I fix a bug, another one pops up. Much of the affected code is from 2012, designed for rendering landscape instead of doing flight simulation. I wanted to throw it away for a long time, but I try to delay it until after we have stable version to release. Unfortunately, I...

Re: 🔴 OPEN BUG: Traffic Too Dense
I tried spreading the traffic, but this yields to pseudo-random crashes. It seems like Sometimes a tile creates contrails for its planes even though the plane already has contrails. There must be an odd problem at play, like planes moving from visible tiles to non-visible tiles and not properly rele...

Re: 🔴 OPEN BUG: Leaving Terrain in Explorer Mode
Can’t do negative values now – too complex. Coordinates are compressed into UAW_GlobalPoint (which I want to replace altogether some day) and it’s not a trivial change to make it hold signed values instead of unsigned ones. That’s also the reason the terrain “disappears”: The coordinate wraps around...

✔️ FIXED BUG: No Wheel Control at Tile Edges
Not very important for TAW, since all runways are always in the middle of a tile. But very important for Ace Combat with small tiles: If you roll over the edge between two tiles, strange things happen. The plane might slow down drastically. You may lose steering. Control surfaces start moving. It is...

Re: 🔴 OPEN BUG: Oscillation in F-22 Flight Model
Found it, fixed it. A Tale About Quick Hacks I just reached Mach 6 in my F-22 by artificially increasing thrust tenfold: image.png This is something special because in ADF/TAW, you cannot reach Mach 6 by messing with thrust. At Mach 4, severe oscillations start. Your plane moves up and down several ...

Re: 🔴 OPEN BUG: Remove Snapshot
Will be removed in the next version.
While at it, I also removed the Glide/Direct3D string because this had no use for a decade, too.
Looks so unfamiliar now:

Re: 🔴 OPEN BUG: Oscillation in F-22 Flight Model
Quick observation: DID fixed this for Typhoon. The EF2000 flight model there feels much more natural in every regard, even though it simulates an F-22 internally.
I should compare the pitch handling routines in the disassembly.
