Rise of Flight, to ship with support for TH2Go

Butch_N · Post by **Butch_N** » 17 Jun 2009, 07:33

Thank you Mark, Jason and Neoqb.
I don't know if this is part of the reason for the delay, but it doesn't matter. What does is that you guys are working hard for us and I appreciate everything you are doing.

Man, I can hardly wait :D

Hi guys,

Yes, it needs a little work. I finally have what I had at the show set up and functioning at home. It is Vert - apparently, which makes it a bit difficult to see properly, but it's still pretty cool. neoqb is going to fix it soon, probably in a couple weeks it looks like. So if you buy ROF and have to suffer from the Vert effect for a while I apologize.

Jason

The FOV is indeed much too narrow/zoomed in the cockpit view but it's still enjoyable if a little difficult to dogfight because the view. Shots in 3840x1024. Just picked up a th2go and haven't figured out how/if I can get 5040x1050 yet.

It seems ill have to wait for a patch / fix, im definetely tired of this zoomed view in flight syms like Black Shark and LOMAC. :?

Yeah, I'm waiting too. I have the game now, but haven't played it since hooked up TH2Go. When I first tried it, I decided to wait before trying to play it.

I only hope for two things. 4320x900 will be a selectable resolution and that the FOV works like it does in FSX. Although, it wouldn't have go back as far as FSX can go, but I would hope it has a nice bit of range to it.

I'm sure it will be awesome, once fixed.

Yes, my bad, FOV is ok with 1 camera using this tweak :

Any update on the patch timeline? I too have bought the game but cannot play on triplehead because of the zoom. Its just not right to play a flight sim on a single monitor, so I refuse to :)

Anxiously awaiting patch so I can play!

Sorry for bumping but I cannot any information anywhere with respect to a patch that is going to make this game playable on TH2Go.

Does anyone anywhere have any info? I am still waiting to play this game after buying it over a week ago. Every ad for this game says it has TH2Go support. But it doesn't and that makes me sad and a little frustrated... :(

Hi

No I haven't heard anything really. Over at SimHQ Jason said something about the next patch being a lot bigger than the first and also that he is testing it now. He has TH2Go, so I would hope that's part of the testing he is doing.
I only hope they get it right, like in FSX or rFactor (and most any other game that supports it). Neoqb's DR.1 for FSX is fantastic in triplehead, in FSX. I can only imagine how RoF will be when they get it working like it should be.
Hopefully soon now, but I have no idea.

spybaz · Post by **spybaz** » 20 Jul 2009, 06:07

Thanks for the response, Butch! Yeah, if they do it like TH2Go has been implemented in FSX, I would be more than pleased. Just wanna play....

Butch_N · Post by **Butch_N** » 20 Jul 2009, 17:19

You're welcome. Sorry I haven't anything else to offer.
I'm just like you, I can't play right now either. I have a made a few flights, but just the free fly. The view is just too restricted to try to fight anything, other than a balloon.

Since Matrox is working with them on it, I have a feeling they will get it right and it should be what we are expecting it to be. I mean even Test Drive Unlimited does it right, so I have little worries they will come through.

It's hard knowing how everyone is flying and having so much fun while we are stuck on the aerodrome with,,,, let's say 'clipped wings', lol.

We'll be there though. Just hang in there :)

Hi again

A patch is due out anytime now.
There is no mention of TH2Go being fixed, but it did state there were things corrected in all screens, so hopefully this means we will have the correct FOV when using TH2Go. I certainly hope so, I want to play too.

Check the News section at the official Rise of Flight site for information.

Fingers crossed here.

Sounds good, im waiting for this patch to finally buy RoF. :D

Well place your order thales100!

Working beautifully now.

This shows it panned out as far as it will go. More than enough, so all is good.
Thank you Neoqb, Matrox, Jason (of 777 Studios) and anyone else that helped in getting this straightened out.

So, if you don't hear from me on the boards for a while, just look up, I'm somewhere over France ;)

Bye for now

Hi again

Jason said they are not 100% satisfied with it yet and further enhancements will be coming. But hey, they got it pretty good now and it's certainly playable like this. I suppose maybe they mean the edge distortion, he didn't get into details about what they are still looking into.

One thing is for sure, they are fully commited to support and any improvements beyond this is only a plus.

Great news! Next question - where do I get the patch?

I have been to the RoF site, seen the dev notes on patch 1.004 (http://riseofflight.com/Blogs/post/2009/07/28/Patch-1004.aspx).

I click the link that says "Patch 1.004", which basically opens a duplicate page - no download options given. I have read the whole page. Nowhere does it say where to get the patch. I have googled it - nothing.

If someone can post a link, I would be most grateful.

Thanks!
