Re: WOFF UE - 10/27/16 02:41 PM

A queer looking beast to be sure...

That staggered wing gives you a blind spot behind and above... exactly what you don't need.

Nice shots Trooper. How do you like WOFF? I have Microsoft Combat III ? I think that is what you have to start with? Is it Worth the Investment? I am mainly a SP simmer, Do you recommend it and is it a lot of work to get installed and working up to the Current WOFF? Maybe you would like to RM me instead of answer here ?

Not a dumb question at all, Blade.

Unfortunately no. Other than using FRAPS or something similar, there is no way to record tracks in WOFF.

Here's a few more... a change of scene as we move into the winter months.

On escort patrol with the one and a half Strutter B from the Sopwith stable (oh my lord, where's my gunner gone?).

Some Hun's try to intercept our recce aircraft on route to the front... time to give Roland Rat a bit of a dusting I think...

Those Roland's were not quite as easy to 'dust up' as I thought... I soon found myself in trouble and had to make for home.

It was quite clear just who had been dusting up who...

Made it down safely. I think I was jolly lucky to get down in one piece... that Roland chappies gunner was a rather skilled shot!

Re: WOFF UE - 11/13/16 08:48 PM

Survived another sortie... home, and tea!

I have a question. If you are using fraps or some similar video capture software, how are you replaying your missions and taking external pictures of your dogfights? Are you maybe pausing the mission in game during your dogfight and taking these pictures, or how are you doing it? Very nice pics by the way Trooper. I think I am going to purchase WOFF EU this Wednesday or next Saturday.

S!Blade<><

Posted By: Trooper117

Re: WOFF UE - 11/14/16 12:26 PM

I just pause mid game and take the odd pic here and there with the different camera views
I don't use fraps etc... just pause, select the view I want and press the 'K' key to take my pic.

Posted By: Trooper117

Re: WOFF UE - 11/21/16 06:43 PM

The Hun is on his way!... we have to gain altitude quickly.

A break in the murky conditions give us a first sighting of the enemy.

If we can't get up there soon it will be too late, we will never catch them!

He's going home... Almost there!

DAMN AND BLAST IT!... couldn't catch the blighter. Fired off all my ammunition, but couldn't do much damage at that range.
As I head back to St Omer, I drop below the clouds once more, the dark atmosphere returns and matches my mood...

Really nice Trooper. I have neglected to purchase WOFF UE yet, but I am off From Wednesday until next Monday. I think I am going to have to take the plunge. If this Sim is one half as good to fly as the pictures show it to be, then it must be worth it.

Re: WOFF UE - 11/22/16 12:05 PM

I will say, compared to RoF, you may be a little disappointed in the games feeling of flight, as RoF is far superior in that regard.
However, the dev's have made various improvements to the fm's over the years.

The game does excel in its campaign mode, plus a pretty believable AI system which does beat RoF in that regard.
I have always said, if we could combine the great bits of both games we would be in WWI aviation heaven

I can guarantee I wouldn't want to be up in a storm of that magnitude in one of those kites.

Re: WOFF UE - 11/28/16 02:30 PM

Great pics BM

But that crate is so difficult to survive in... rearward and above vision is really impaired by that back staggered wing. You can't see the bad guys coming.
However, forward vision is great... in reality they excelled in the ground attack role, but they can't really hold their own against a well flown Albatros... glad you took the plunge.

Posted By: Hellshade

Re: WOFF UE - 12/05/16 02:44 PM

Glad you are enjoying it BM. There are countless hours of great experiences ahead of you and UE always seems to find ways to surprise. Great screen shots everyone.

After a bit of struggle to get my controls working and getting TIR5 working and I am finally up and flying. I have Wednesday off plus 5 days off coming up from Thursday before Christmas through the day after Christmas off. I did a little 2 on 2 and I am surprised at how good WOFF UE feels. I really like ROF and haven't flown it in months but this really feels like it is going to be fun in the Dog Fights. My Crosswinds feel just right with no adjustment. My Thrustmaster t16000m feels perfect after I turned the dead zone down to #2. I use an X52pro for the throttle and the stick for extra buttons and I am curios whether the Saitek software will work in WOFF UE? Here are a couple of pics I took using Sweet FX and NVDINSP 4x S [Combined: 1x2 SS + 2x MS(D3D only)] Antialiasing Mode and 2x Sparse Grid Supersampling and 16x Anistrophic filtering setting while keeping 50-60 FPS with Vertical Sync forced on. The Vertical Sync really keeps the screen from chopping up when using TIR5 and 2560x1440. I think it looks good plus even in heavy traffic I still keep good FPS with my old GTX770 4 GB. Hope you enjoy.

Re: WOFF UE - 12/13/16 01:48 PM

It's the best single player sim made..period.

Also with the announcement of a WW2 version by end of next year lots to look forward too!

Go to WOFF forum to see WW2 announcement.

To those worried that it needs CFS3..honestly you have no need to worry if you didn't know you'd know idea CFS3 had anything to do with it.

It's way way more than just a glorified mod.

Also the WW2 version will benefit from all the engine updates WOFF has gone through..so at release it will be fantastic never mind after expansions etc etc.

1. True.

2. According to the devs, Wings Over The Reich (WOTR)has even higher polygon counts and a better flight model and damage model than WOFF UE has, however once WOTR has been released, their goal is to import those advancements back into WOFF UE.

3. OBD plans to continue releasing add-ons for the Ultimate Edition, so it looks like the best WWI flight simming days are still ahead of us.

Saw this thread as I was scrolling through the boards, and I'm glad I stopped to give it a look.

These are some jaw-dropping screenshots, Blade! I have to ask what kind of system you are running? Your pictures are making me think about upgrading my video card! (and power supply... and so on and so on.... ). I thought WOFF looked good on my rig but these images really show off what the sim can shine up too if you have the horsepower to run it!

Re: WOFF UE - 01/31/18 01:19 AM

Very nice Pics Adger. It is so nice having several really good combat sims to choose from theses days. Between WOFF UE, ROF, IL2 Blitz, IL2 Box, DCS and even IL2 1946 BAT still. I have a hard time deciding which one to jump into, and with limited time it is hard to keep up to date and proficient with all of them. I am a Jack of all Combat Sims and a Master of none! I don't know what I will do when CLOD 5.0, Flying Circus, BOBP and WOTR get here, they will probably carry me off to the Loony bin from shear indecision and appearing to be way to overly happy. These are some old un posted ones. Hopefully tomorrow I can get in WOFF UE and fly some and take some new pics. Cheers

S!Blade<><

Haha im with you on that one Blade,ive been away from the forum for a while (RL and working hard) But yep i certainly get bored quickly. Il go from WOFF to Assasins creed to Far cry 4 to IL2 1946 BAT. Ive always got something different on the go . I think because my free time is short i try to cram in as much as possible.
I really need to take 1 game (sim) at a time..looking forward to WOTR though. As always i love your shots keep em coming pal

WoFF PLATINUM EDITION is now out...

Sept 1916. Started a new career with Jasta 2... Having transferred in, I of course get one of the older machines!

The Fokker of course is better than the old Eindecker from my previous Kette...

The 'old hands' of Jasta 2 in their new machines are leaving me behind...

With my superior airman ship skills however I have caught them up... or did they take pity on me and throttle back?

Nothing to report on this patrol, and we are soon back above our landing ground.

Safely down!

Later on I was told to I had a new machine to test fly... could not wait to to take my ''ganz neu'' Albatros up!

Nice AAR Trooper. Beautiful pics from both Adger & Trooper. Are you gents flying the vanilla PE or are you using any mods?

Reminds me of flying my Father-In-law's 1947 Luscomb floatplane into their small lake surrounded by trees. No flaps, so if you didn't know how to slip, you didn't stand a chance. Not much problem with surface level crosswinds because of the trees, but you did have to carefully time straightening out from the slip just before you hit the water...

Wonderful pics, both Trooper and Adger. Love WOFF, just wish I had more time to fly it. Keep up the great work in dropping pics here! If I can't fly it, seeing the pics being posted here is the next best thing.

Mission 4. Dec 1916 Habsheim in the Alsace region...

Another early rise and dawn take-off, our mission today was a special one. We were to meet up with the Rolands from FA(A) 206 and escort them to there target which was a enemy camp.
Ernst led the flight and we formed up and headed upto meet the Rolands unfortunitely either the Rolands or Ernst got there bearings wrong and after searching for them for some time we never saw them..Ernst decided that it was a total waste of time and we all headed back to base. The mood and morale in camp is low at the moment the Jasta are seeing little action, claims are being denied and now we can't even meet up with the bombers..lets hope some heads roll for the latest debacle.

Nice AARs Ade! Great pictures Sir. Sounds like you are enjoying PE. Glad to hear it. When you get a second, I PMed you a question.
Honestly Trooper, the mules don't even look like they trust those pirates. It is a wonder you receive any supplies at all from that motley bunch!
Take care Mate.

Mission 5..Destroy an enemy Observation balloon that was troubling our forces.

A bit of a later start this morning: We took off at 07.45 and formed up, i was leader for this mission and we climbed altitude to 10,000 ft

I noticed the Obs Balloon from a distance away and dove down on it whilst my flight stayed above to keep an eye out for any enemy. The ground fire was quite ferocious and my craft was hit a couple of times..despite this i had a good big target to aim at and consequently managed to down the balloon. No enemy AC were seen and we had a pleasant flight back to base. My claim went in and was accepted..my 1st kill and a nice silver goblet was presented aswell, all in all a really good morning's work.

Thomas Muller Mission 6. Dec 1916 Habsheim airfield in the Alsace region...

An 8:05 takeoff with Ernst Udet once again taking us up, it was warmer this morning and the snow's look like it's melting slowly dark clouds were above and i knew it,d be difficult to spot anyone up there. It was a Sperrflug mission (Intercept) of some aircraft that had been bombing our troops, we were close to the enemy frontlines when Ernst spotted them 1st.(He,s got the eyesight of a hawk)
2 Caudrons were on there way back after there mission, I was instructed to take the left craft of the pair and proceeded to fire my guns..wow it soaked up my ammo but eventually i saw the craft spiral out of control, the pilot was lucky, id hit him and he was slumped dead in the cockpit, the observer/gunner less so he was still alive when i saw him jump out from 3000ft..i sight that will live with me for the rest of my days. the claim was confirmed and i got the credit i also received the "eisernes kreuz" 2 Klasse (Iron cross) but my award is tainted in what i witnessed, i was shaking when i left the cockpit but Ernst was quick with a stiff drink to try calm my nerves....

Still looks bleak and cold!... the game does set the scene for the player.
When I do these type of missions it always makes me feel cold and sometimes down in a funny sort of way.
And yet I never feel like that when the mission is set on a nice sunny day!!!

Re: WOFF UE - 05/08/20 04:59 PM

I'm with you on that pal, and I'm not sure of any other sim that captures the feeling of weather like WOFF does.
I honestly feel like that in RL too..I hate cold dark days (I work outdoors) so the more sun I get the better

As the Brits Say, 'Those are some real crackers Mate!' The plywood texturing is incredible. Agreed, it does look cold and foreboding.

Cheers Drew a new day with the snows finally gone, ive been bitten with the WOFF bug again and PE looks incredible.

Thomas Muller Mission 7... 20th Dec 1916 Habsheim airfield in the Alsace region...

A early patrol over the frontlines was the order for this morning,the heavy rain yesterday that suspended the flights had cleared the last of the snows. It was a absolutely beautiful morning, cold but the sunrise was a sight to behold.
Ernst was again our patrol leader and tensions were frayed after making an idiot of himself last night (He,d been drinking all of yesterday). Instead of the early night he decided to drink until the early hrs and he was like a bear with a sore head when he got his call at 06.15am

I dont know how he managed to take off but i made sure i watched him very carefully and he very nearly clipped the trees to his left hand side during take-off Not long after take off i noticed a couple of Caudrons above us. I signalled to Ernst that id spotted them and he looked to see. After a brief moment he signalled to carry on with our objective..I was flabbergasted, i couldn't believe that he wasn't going to get us climbing to meet the target.

I looked at him with disgust from the cockpit, it's a good job he couldn't hear my obscenities..
We continued to patrol the frontlines and the troops from both sides below were getting a serious pounding. No more opportunities arose during the flight and we landed..i couldn't help myself i jumped down and the mechanics had to keep us apart.
Christmas is coming up and i've never felt so low, it looks like i could be putting in a transfer very soon...

Thomas Muller Mission 8... 21st Dec 1916 Habsheim airfield in the Alsace region...

We had another dawn mission to patrol just over the lines, we were to protect our recon and artillery recon aircraft and also to attack any ground forces if any opportunity came up.
It was a misty dawn morning and the clouds above were dark and foreboding. We all took off and patrolled our area, no contacts were spotted and there wasn't much going on at ground level aswell..(the ground mist over the patrol area would have made it near impossible to see anyway)..We all landed safely for breakfast and a hot drink.

Thomas Muller Mission 9... 22nd Dec 1916 Habsheim airfield in the Alsace region...7.55am

A mission to patrol close to the lines, Ernst again took us up and the clouds like the previous day were dark and visibility was low. We circled to altitude and proceeded on our route.
We got within a few miles of the front when Ernst signalled..he,d spotted enemy AC ahead of us, il say this there,s nothing wrong with his eyesight. the number 3 in flight took the left hand foe who took him down a few thousand feet in a spiralling fight.
Both myself and Ernst took on the same target and i got in 1st and peppered the Caudron then Ernst appeared in front of me, what a fool !! i had to quickly bank or we would have both collided..the man's mad the Caudron,s top part of his wing split and our foe tumbled to the ground.
We landed and i managed to grab Ernst and land one on his chin, we both ended up scrapping in the mud and again had to be pulled apart, im sure there's going to be reprimands after this latest incident..Its 3 days until Christmas and my morale along with my nerves are shot. Im going to request some leave and a possible transfer before one of us kills the other.

Yea, I have never flown the N28 in WOFF either. I flew it in ROF, but the FM was always screwed and it never even flew like a turn fighter which, in my understanding from the reading I did, it was. Nice pics both of you, I am really enjoying them for a break from WOTR.

Hi KRT it may be better to ask over on the forum pal you'd definitely get a better response there. "CFS2" do you mean 3 ? Fwiw you don't need CFS3 installed or in the drive you just need to own it. Regarding direct x have you or your dad read the FAQ for WOFF ..it explains the install of direct x that comes with the sim. HTH ..best of luck and I sincerely hope your dad gets it up and running, it's an incredible sim.

Thomas Muller Mission 10... 23rd Dec 1916 Habsheim airfield in the Alsace region..7:05am

Balloon busting over the lines in a early flight, It was a wet cold morning infact we'd heard the rain bucket down all night and i hardly slept a wink we took off and didn't encounter any enemy along the way..in fact the skies are unnaturally quiet.
Towards the target area the ground fire opened up with everything they had, i was hit a few times but managed to down the balloon we were in good spirits when we landed and i put my claim in witnessed by 2 of my Jasta..Claim denied, Christmas?? Bahh humbug.

Woff, Between Heaven and Hell 2 is now available.
My first foray into the blue was not what I was expecting!

Just take it up for a couple of circuits he said... I've repaired the tail skid he said, see what you think when you land her he said...
What he didn't say was that as soon as I did get up there, there was a bunch of Huns just waiting to perforate my new kite and bomb the hell out of the bloody drome!

When I did get down, the place was still being plastered... what a carve up!
After it was all over, I asked him to have a look at my new kite and could he find time to fix it a bit more... Strewth!

It was a glorious afternoon... such a joy to be up there on such a day.

On the way back to their drome I saw a train near the coast and chased it along for awhile... a nice end to an enjoyable flight.

Awful weather when we left Furnes for our daily line patrol... we aren't far from the front and as we approached we spotted four DIII's and gave chase.

One of them broke off and ran for the lines. I gave chase... not sure if he was having engine problems but I was slowly gaining on him.

Almost there...

I've got you now my friend...

One good long burst and he flipped straight over...

No recovery for him... he dove straight into the ground!

This is a PE Campaign with the 94th, but no Hat In The Ring skins? I can't seem to find them in Sandbagger's download page either. Trooper, do you remember if those skins were in any of the addon skin packs on Sandbagger's download page? Maybe they are in your new BHaHII skins? Maybe you could share them if they are? Hint, Hint?

Re: WOFF UE - 04/16/21 09:18 PM

Hi BM... I checked my WoFF PE skinpack (I kept the skin folder) and the 94th are in there, so they came with the original WoFF or the extra skinpack they produced by Robert Wiggins (skin pack Version 1, 128 MB).
Download link is here: Sandbaggers download site

Did you look in the campaign section in the main game and check if you had the skins in there mate... if not I will dig them out and see if I can send them to you

Hey Trooper, I sent you a PM. Did you see it? I finally got my WOFF PE sorted. I was having crazy problems when looking straight up with my TIR5. It would stutter(not the game, the view) badly when looking up from straight ahead and even lock for seconds at a time when my I raised my view from looking straight forward to looking straight up. Looking all other directions worked spot on. It was crazy and I did a reinstall and changed my NVCP settings to an old profile I found and now it works perfect. Weird. Anyway I am trying to get a little practice in the Neup 28 before I begin my second Campaign mission with the 94th. During the first mission I almost died but did mention to badly damage an Alb before my engine gave out and I dead sticked it just, and I mean JUST, across No Mans land to land safely on friendly soil between fenced fields. LOL, I think the fences are still deadly in WOFF PE? Here are a few shots from tonight.

Flying today in such lovely weather one could almost forget there was a war on.

The patrol is led by Adjutant de Turenne, an experienced flyer.

We approach the lines... we have to be very alert as the enemy are sending up frequent patrols.

My little 'office' in the sky... I feel at home in here now.

Re: WOFF UE - 07/25/21 07:48 PM

Great stuff mate...

What I love about the WoFF series is the fact that you get the whole deal... no messing about, you are thrust into a complete immersive WWI package.
Your squadron life, pilots, aeroplanes and the history, events, aces etc are all there... there are intelligence reports on who and what is where on the map, enemy aces information for your sector, newspaper reports, the ability to fill out claim forms after each sortie, putting in for a sqn transfer, taking leave, days off when weather prevents flying, arrival of new types to fly, alternative missions, choosing to go on solo patrols, and that's not the half of it.

Workshop sections that have a whole host of options to fly 'your' war the way you want to, just about every conceivable WWI skin you can think of, (couple of thousand), fly a fully fleshed out campaign, or single missions... go to the quick combat builder and choose the type of mission or solo flight you want to construct on the map in any weather conditions with any type of aircraft and enemy types, save it to the single mission section if you want and fly it time after time to hone your skills.
Top that off with a decent AI that most of the time is very believable.

The ability to mod the game is there, with a community that has produced some must have mods depending what version of the game you own.

They just don't make games like this anymore...

That just about sums it up Trooper. Those are some really nice pics Sir. Here are a few more from my recent flights. Have to credit BuckeyBob's Optional Cloud Mod and 4Lom's Seasonal Texture Mod and FX Mod as being in use here.

Another recon mission this time with Sargeant Peter Cutting and his Obs to photograph Troop movements...

There's a bit of cloud up i hope it won't hamper our mission

Archie opens up on us and i struggle to maintain my height and keep my wings level. But manage to get my camera working..

Both make it home unscathed and fingers crossed that the photographs taken will be of some use.

Mission a success, 2 of the photos were good enough..time for a good stiff drink in the mess
