Edit:
The dynamics of ysflight may have changed. Planes that are on the ground have about 2 times the thrust before. Once you lift off, that extra thrust disappears.
Took some measurements comparing the old version to the new one. The times are how fast it took the planes to reach 100 knts.
Stock 747
Old version: 15 seconds
New version: 8 seconds
Stock F-18 Superhornet with afterburner
Old version: 5 seconds
New version: 2 seconds

Thanks, Guys!

@ All! I think that was great. I loved the loop-the-loop AIMs and I really liked the Ground defense mission with the Gepard! The only thing I couldn't do was add fuel tanks to the aircraft in the Loading menu. Are there certain aircraft that can use the fuel tanks? The ground vehicles were a blast! Much better than Orbiter's addon for that simulator! I haven't tried the Air Traffic Control yet, but the Autopilot still works great! It did seem harder to shoot down aircraft with the Short Range AIMs. Now when you pop a missile off at an aircraft you get an instant launch of flares from the aircraft. The flares seem more effective too! The only way I could tell which AIMs are going to hit the aircraft is watch the smoke. The hitters always loop-the-loop like they are re-engaging a missed target. I give it a 100 out of 10!

The jeeps skid instead of turning when I use a full angle turning. Skidding is OK but the thing is it skids all the way instead of stopping or moving forward.
Flight dynamics have changed. Thrust vectoring will be more realistic I suppose.
Other than the jeep thing no bugs found.

i think its actually more realism in some ways, who takes off in an F-16 with Full AB and no loading?

Nah i think its too much power.

One possible bug, on the ground-air support missions, is the lack of sound from the gun firing on purpose? I can hear the missiles being launched, and the hits and 'kill' sounds.

(there was a lot of fine tweaking with variables in conjunction with a blue angles take-off video where he announces the airspeed during take-off. "thats 40. 60. 80. 100... 120...")

I didn't hear it either! I was thinking of adding one of the sound mods from the current stable version. I did find out that the FA-18E Superhornet is compatible with the new fuels tanks. So if you pick that one you can try them out. I liked them! I was playing the ground-defence mission with the Gepard again and no sound from the guns. Kind of spooky! Another one I'll like to test is Task Force 58's Weapons mods. It looks like there are a few changes in the Misc folder too!decaff_42 wrote:Does anyone know what setting the mouse/joystick sensitivity was for the last version??? that's the only thing that is bugging me right now.

E to increase and D to decrease. Watch the text at the top left to see how much you change it (there are only two settings: 0.25 and 0.50).decaff_42 wrote:Does anyone know what setting the mouse/joystick sensitivity was for the last version??? that's the only thing that is bugging me right now.

Re: YSFlight ver.20120219 TEST VERSION RELEASED!
Yeah i know that, but none of the settings feel like the stable release. 0.25 is like a fully loaded airliner, 0.5 feels like a slugish dogfighter, and the higher values feel like the mouse is a one-touch out-of-control cluster-f**k maker. i swear it feels like i move a millimeter and BAM! I'm doing a 720 degree/second barrel roll.Honey Badger wrote:E to increase and D to decrease.

Personally I think they take off pretty damn quickly - even in normal YS, planes take off quicker than their real life counter-parts; practically all fighters seemed STOL capable at least, although that's just because take-off / landing conditions are less important than the precision needed to get good performance out of fighters.
