I am doing a campaign with Jasta 11 in early 1918 in the Triplanes, not on most realistic sorry haha. So I was to go on a mission over the front. I would be leading one flight, and the other flight contained Manfred von Richthofen, Lothar von Richthofen and two more that I fail to recall (one had yellow fuselage band on Triplane I think, the other a red and yellow cross).

So we get out to the field and lo and behold, Sopwith Camels are approaching our airfield with altitude. Everyone scrambles to takeoff quickly and a big dogfight ensues. I kill a camel and then i think i wonder how the Richthofens are doing!! So i pause the game and look around a bit targeting friendlies and I cant find them! o no! I get worried, continue flying and a little bit later try again. But now I see htem they are both ok.

I finish a second camel then decide to head over and see how they are doing. Again I cant find Manfred but I see Lothar battling a Camel so I go over to him to see if he needs help cause the Camel has some angles.

But just as I get close, a beautiful renversement and he flames the bugger just as I pass by, so my screenshot camera says "click"

Just felt like sharing that with you all :)


but also a question: is it possible to get a freely moveable spot view of other craft, I could've made a nicer shot from Lothars POV. I know i can see them if i target them, target to player. But i want to move the camera.

thanks!
