Title: Annoying truck on the Nimitz (by Javier Fernandez)
Post by: sun444 on December 18, 2009, 02:18:07 pm

Everytime I prepare my F-18 for a start on the Nimitz a guy in a blue shirt in a white little truck comes along an runs through my aircraft. And this happens every other minute. I tried to catch this man with the hook of my F-18 but he just ignores it. I'm really pissed off by now.

Can anyone tell me how to paralyze this guy or how to throw him overboard, I'll be thankful for the rest of my life.

Haha, I had a problem with this guy in my Goshawk landing video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Njnw3FwT9s) - he ran through my plane every time, so I had to leave it in the final cut ;D

Hi, nice meeting you here.
A couple of days ago You gave me some advice on YouTube on carrier landing (remember counting to 2-5 at abeam).
I just joined today. I was watching some of you videos and it is frustrating because they all seem so perfect.
I think we have to live with this guy in the white truck so have a nice weekend.

 Hey neutrino I watched your San fransisco T-45 video where you were using or your wingman was using TrackIR. What version were you using? And how did you get the view to be that stable? Whenever I set it just myself it always is off enough that I have to move my eyes naturally to see the monitor, and I can't look over my wings  or look far enough down at the panel. So i'm just wondering what settings do you have it on so it's that steady i can never get it to be that steady.

Hi - I didn't use TrackIR, I was using a mouse look - hold down the space bar and then use the mouse to look around and the mouse wheel to zoom. Of course this is only practical when you watch a recorded flight and your hands are free. So I was changing the view and looking around when replaying and recording with FRAPS. I don't own a TrackIR... yet  ;D May be someone else can help with settings.

neutrino, mouse view/look is a good tip for replay view with FRAPS. Thanks.
