Milviz F-15E Service Pack

In all honesty, numbers do not matter...it's all about your FSX settings.

Just buy the bird, if it doesn't work the way you like, return it.

I agree with this. With other people giving you numbers, you are only creating expectations of what it might do to your system. You might think it will run better if your specs are higher than the others, vice versa. Fortunately with the Flight1 system, you have the ability to purchase the aircraft, and test it for 30 days. If you are not satisfied in any way, or it does not run as well as you like, you can return it before those 30 days are up.
 
I agree with Merlin -- and he gets better results than I do.

Since you asked: I've only flown it as a 2 ship, in the multiplayer model. I'm getting about 12 frames with my FSX sliders at mid-level, and global texture resolution at HIGH (not Very high). I don't use light bloom. We usually fly in fair-weather conditions, so there are some clouds -- but nothing too extreme. I fly a lot of addon aircraft, and I usually get 30. So, I hope my frames go up when they release the patch.

I can fly while looking at a 4 ship of SF8 F-86s and get 15-19 frames. With a 2 or 3 ship I can stay locked at 30.

My specs are:

3.12 gigahertz, 4 gigs of ram, GTS250 card with 512 mb.

@MILVIZ -- there is absolutely a problem with multiplayer radios -- having the F-15 in session does screw up everyone else's radios and cause comm lag and broken comms. It is the same as the T-38 before you guys patched it. I hope this can be resolved.


Best,

CE
 
Err...Not exactly sure HOW we can fix the radios.....its really just the default FSX radio system. The only thing that could mess up the com radios is some external radio addon or a auto tune feature in which case the only the suggestion I have is that you tune the radios from the UFC and nowhere else....

And while on it....please post issues like this in our forums....we would rather not do support here at SOH.

Also never really used the FSX MP radio system. Teamspeak and VATSIM always worked way better for me.
 
Naruto,

It has nothing to do with how radios are tuned. It has to do with the multiplayer call functions of the aircraft's coding. The T-38 had the same problem until it was brought to MILVIZ's attention, and it was fixed.

I also prefer to use TS, but I fly in an ATC session that sometimes has 50 pilots and 10 controllers all working on different FSX frequencies. This goes smoothly, until I load in the F-15, and then everyone else's comms crash.

Milviz knows what the issue is, I'm just not sure they know about it on the F-15.

Also, is there a support forum on the milviz page for the F-15, like there is for the T-38, or is there just the general forum?

CE
 
Both forums are there. I will try to find the issue but its going to be a bit tough cuz its a bit hard to find issues with the default FSX coding that could be involved....
 
Thanks. Perhaps I need to send an e-mail to Roadburner to add me to those forums.

Godspeed on the coding fixes. You guys are wizards. Thanks.
 
I believe so. The same man who fixed it for the T-38A advised Jon how to fix it for the F-15E and therefore when Jon made that last post I am confident he was speaking of the radio in MP mode.

Cheers,

Ken
 
Thanks guys for your attention on this. I know many people on SOH don't fly in multiplayer, or use FSX radios in multiplayer, but there are thousands of us who do, and we really appreciate it.
 
I understand this will sound a little ODD, but is there any other method of purchase than through F1 ?

Thanks
 
Unfortunately not at this time. The weapon system and other crucial systems are coded such that if they are not activated through the F1 installer you wont even get the jet off the ground. Once i get past a few issues im having on the F-15C and if/when we can get a new weapon system I will redo the systems of the E so we can have our own installer. However I will repeat, the F1 virus warning IS FALSE. There are no viruses in this system. And its the only way at this time that we can offer a refund on our products.

Okay thanks.

It wasn't about the F1 installer though - I have very many F1 products, and using Eset NOD32, I get no such false positives.

Much as I admire their sales and refund policy, I just no longer wish to give F1 any more of my VERY hard earned dosh. They've made it quite clear how they feel towards their paying customers (ouch!) I'm voting with my wallet:running:

As Jon stated above, Flight1 only handles the transaction and activation and refund process for Milviz, Eaglesoft, and quite a few other development houses. We pay them for the service, so don't feel like your "VERY hard earned dosh" is going in their pockets...
 
Whata wrong with Flight1? I've always found them very good to deal with.

Ian.

I won't do what others have done elsewhere, and get into word games or otherwise. Let's just call it a personal choice upon seeing the evidence.

It's CERTAINLY not relating to their products though - they've released some of the best payware I have.
