1.11 Patch Update - 12AUG05 von Mat!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Work continues on the 1.11 patch and progress is looking quite good. In fact, we got the 1.11 Beta 02 patch version today. Here are some items to look forward to in the upcoming patch (not long now).
- A memory leak caused by the client and host having different scenery settings has been fixed.
- The Starforce copy protection of requesting the CD every time the program is run has been changed to requesting it only once a week.
- Radar lock with F-15C Vertical Scan (VS) mode is no longer instantaneous.
- The F-15C backup compass on the canopy frame now shows correct heading.
- When jumping to another aircraft (A-10A and F-15C), cannon ammunition level is now correct.
- A new config/network/status.lua file has been added. The MP host can now forbid the display of the MP events string during the game.
- The wheels of client aircraft now turn.
- Force Feedback support to aircraft using the Standard Flight Model (SFM) has been improved.

- The "Press S" client message is no longer displayed at the start of a multiplayer game.
- The multiplayer stutter and LOD fixes have been integrated into the 1.11 patch.
- Overall multiplayer stability and smoothness of play has been increased.

1.11 Patch Item - New AWACS/EWR Logic

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As testing for the 1.11 FC patch is underway, Eagle asked that I periodically discuss a new patch feature. Once the patch is nearly done, I'm sure Eagle will release the complete list. In the meantime, these items will give you an idea of what to look forward to.

A sore point for many Lock On fliers has been the “all seeing” AWACS / EWR radars. I’m happy to report that this issue has been resolved in a big way in the FC 1.11 patch. I may be mistaken, but I believe the AWACS / EWR radar modeling will now be the most realistic for any retail product. Key features of the AWACS radar now include modeling of:
- Terrain masking
- Maximum range
- Minimum range
- Radar horizon calculation
- Target radar cross section (RCS) detection threshold
- Target radial velocity (allows target to use look down Doppler clutter notch)
- Target aspect
- Beam angle towards the target
- Refresh time

EWR radars will now model the following:
- Terrain masking
- Maximum range
- Minimum range
- Radar horizon calculation
- Target radar cross section (RCS) detection threshold
- Target aspect
- Beam angle towards the target
- Refresh time

On a related matter, aircraft with active ECM can no longer be detected through terrain.


1.11 Patch - BVR Improvements

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here are some BVR combat improvements that have been included in the 1.11 patch:

1- In 1.02, several users complained about active radar homing (ARH) missile shots going astray from their intended target. For 1.11, a new conical search pattern is now used when the seeker is attempting to acquire or reacquire a target. The search pattern will start from the longitudinal axis of the missile or the last know position of a designated target and work outwards.

2- A radar lock warning is now given to F-15C/A-10A players when locked by an Su-27/33/MiG-29 in Home On Jam (HOJ) mode. HOJ for these aircraft is not a fully passive system.

3- No radar lock warning is given to Russian aircraft when locked by an F-15C in HOJ mode.

4- The F-15C can no longer identify a jamming target as friendly or enemy.

5- Lock ranges when in Close Air Combat (CAC) modes for Russian aircraft have been decreased to 10 km.

6- If an aircraft has active Electronic Counter Measures (ECM), it is no longer to possible to detect the emitter through terrain.

7- F-15C ECM can now mask other aircraft in the vicinity of the jammer.

8- The Su-27/33 and MiG-29 appear on the TEWS and RWR as a ‘29’ symbol because of radar similarity.

9- If radar lock is broken, Semi Active Radar Homing (SARH) missile seekers will direct their antenna to the last point before lock was broken will reacquire the target if radar lock is reestablished within 5-degrees of that point.
