OK...I just tried this and it worked like a charm!

First of all, it's only available in the ATAG TF 4.3 Server, and since that's the only one we use, then it shouldn't be a big deal. However, when we start doing some "COOP" user made missions, then it would be nice to see how they did this, so we could copy it...

1) Must land at a friendly airfield.

2) Must not have ANY damage on your machine.

3) Cannot be TOTALLY out of ammo.

4) Come to a stop and hold the brakes.

5) Engine off.

6) Magnetos off.

7) Open the canopy.

8) Hit "ESC" and type in the box... left arrow key (the one above the comma), then no space and "rr100" (without the quotations), then hit enter.

9) Go back to your plane, and a fuel truck will "auto-magically" appear. It will take him several minutes to refuel/rearm you, but he will eventually do that, then he will disappear!

BTW....here are a couple of shots from last night (a high water mark for me...2.9 kills and NO RADIATORS (or engines) blown!)!

======================



Dude was just a teeny bit too focused on killing that -110!

THE most beautiful sight in the world to an "Emil" driver!

======================

Nice find mate, I'd say that it's a script in the mission, but we should be able to extract it and insert it into our own.

First mission that I'm putting together is a StG.229 Ju-87B Stuka bombing raid on the radars at Dover with the JG.229 Fighter Escort in Me-109E1's

Hopefully I'll have it ready to go at the weekend, all I need to do is figure out how to get it running on a dedicated server on the C Coy server I have in the office for DCS without buying another copy of Cliff's...

Nice pic BBall ! Did you have your left eye closed and tongue sticking out looking thru the sight ?   

Highway , if needed, im more that ok with throwing in some funds to get a copy of the game for the server.

I good with the Stuka mission...BBall, I'm yet to see that wonderful sight picture...see ya in the skys

this is going to be a problem...................
thanks BBall!
Very nice pic. You must have ice in your viens, managing to think, 'I'll get a screenie of this'. I'd be way too focused to be thinking at all!! I'm going to start calling you 'IceMan' 

First of all, I too will be happy to throw some cash toward another copy of CLOD “for the cause”...just let me know.

Actually Strut me brother, I had a fag in one hand, a martini in the other (shaken, not stirred), steering with me feet, BOTH eyes closed, and was clucking like a chicken! (or some variation on that....lol)

HA! Hardly!

I finally got smart several years ago, and decided to map the screenshot key to a HOTAS switch! Since, IMHO, screenies are (almost) our version of gun camera film, it only seems natural for me to attempt to record some of the best (and most embarrassing) moments from our flights. After all, if you can’t make fun of yourself (and your buddies), who can you make fun of?

Have a great day all!

Thanks boys

I believe that Greenman Gaming have it for US $5 at the moment, problem is that I can't buy is because I'm outside of the US, but if any of the US guys are able to pick up a copy and PM me the Steam Code for it, I'll get it set up on the server and I'm sure we'll all throw in a dollar!

I've got the ATAG server manager application and it looks pretty easy to set up, it just needs it's own Steam Account.

Check you PMs Highway....it's inbound!

BBall, you are the man.

I'll get the server stood up and ready for this weekend. It might even run DCS and CLOD at the same time being as CLOD is just a command line utility!

Thankyou BBall for doing that, very generous. And thanks Highway once again for the server, looking forward to flying on the W/E/.

No problem.... It's the least I could do for the group!

To quote a dear friend of mine...."I pay more money then that to watch monkeys fu*k at the zoo!"

That one is going in the book of quotes for sure

What...they only throw sh*t at me...Thanks BBall, your the man.

Yes, thank you 'IceMan'.

The CLOD Dedicated Server is up! look for JG229 AU Server - TF4.3

Currently the server is open with no password, but we can lock it down for training and practice missions.

It's just running the stock multiplayer missions which aren't the best so now the rest is up to us!

I need to get another port opened up in our firewall, but we should be able to simultaneously run both the DCS and CLOD server. In fact the CLOD server setup is so good, that it's only consuming 0.6% CPU time and 268MB of RAM!

OUTSTANDING!

BBall, Highwayman,

Connected to the server just fine.

Thank you guy's!

Show.

Thanks fellas, will be taking off soon...  

I've just taken the server down whilst I get the new port opened up. I'll also look to get some MP - Coop Missions put in place as the stock ones are less than average.

I think the plan for the server goes that it will be used primarily by just us for practice and training and locked with a password. When we're wanting to go a'hunting, we jump on the ATAG servers...?

I hope to have at least the Co-op Stuka Bombing raid mission ready for the weekend on our server, but if you have any missions of your own or have suggestions, post them up!

Will we have 109's for escorting the Stuka's in your mission?

Yes, absolutely. I plan to make a template with the south of England set up with AI and some scripts, and then we can make a progressive campaign for Operation Sea Lion

I think it's great that we'll have our own server to practice in.  I, for one, need all of the help you experts can muster.  I hope someone will use our server to teach noobs like me how to effectively take out an enemy aircraft and then we can hop over to the ATAG server and show them what we've learned.

Again thank you to BBall and Highway...
