Thanks say for the video! You did quite well for your first video editing and good song pick, pity it ends suddenly at best part. You could have also included how to jump down from 2nd floor at city headquarters.

Nice... Lucky Luke, don't shoot on the pink spots.

Where is the mustang?

One tip for the high jumps on the sandbags...

Just do a duck jump (jump + duck at the same time) in front of the sandbags and then 2 times "jump" very fast. It is easy... and nice video say, but on bf1942 these spots doesnt make much sense because you can not camp like in other games.

Thx tuia.

Don't put words in my mouth tuia.

tuia · 2013-07-26 16:16:53

Mustang is the seventh plane, now.

Hope I finish editing tonight so new jumps & trick will come soon . By the way i was playing little bit with powerdirector Seem like great tool for making promo videos (already done similar promo like in this vid http://youtu.be/XamdnUrTvRo )
Edit: show your visions guys what it could be (far future promo song:http://youtu.be/can0xuO9IvE ) [

Yeep dary you are right But some of them on other maps r good for defending flag I would like to learn this buggy jump on Roof so I could add 5 new Parkour challenges( will post pic later )

So, you have an advantage when flying with the mustang, because the max. damage surface is much smaller than for example the bf109?

tuia · 2013-07-27 12:23:40

Yes, because Mustang and BF109 have the same amount of armor value (100 hitpoints). Notice that Spitfire is just the tip of the nose and SBD is vulnerable in the tail.

dary · 2013-07-27 12:24:21

The Mustang is much more maneuverable than other planes. But you have to get used to it. It is not easy to fly with it, but if you practice a lot the Mustang is the best plane i would say.

I wouldnt take this as advantage, mustang is just difficult to shoot down because of its capability to turn fast, this pictures are useful for shooting noobs in planes faster, if u are behind them, in dogfight some other things prevail.

but when u hit the spitfire on the engine with 1 shot it will take arround 70% of the plane..

tuia · 2013-07-28 12:48:54

Hitting at the weak spot (blue surface) of a BF109, Mustang, Spitfire and all fighter planes will take the same amount of damage. For example, 1 bullet from BF109 at the tip of the nose of a Spitfire (blue surface) will take 24% and 16% if it hits wings or cockpit (pink surface). Hitting the tail wings only takes 2% (green surface).
The SBD weak spot tail wings (blue surface) is probably an error they did not notice it.

Denny · 2013-07-28 13:00:19

why is that tanks also have weak spots? do you think they did that on purpose or its just bug?

Where is weak spot on the Tiger? 1 bazooka in the back of others kills them almost immediately. Not for Tigers though

... and not for T34 or M10.

Denny · 2013-07-28 13:11:08

Every tank has weak spot, against other tanks, for example tigers right front track u must shoot it very low, to get 70-100% this doesnt work with zook

seventy · 2013-07-28 13:20:30

I killed two tigers with 1 bazooka shot once, but I don't know how I did it. Of course I was being called a cheater afterwards.

Edit: They were hits somewhere on the front.

Don't forget about angle:
Hitpoints = MaterialDamage * DamageMod * AngleFalloff * DistanceMod

AngleFalloff: The damage a vehicle or soldier takes is modified by the angle that the shot hit.
...
So, AngleFalloff is computed simply as cosine(angle). At 0 degrees the cosine is 1.0, at 30 it's 0.866, at 45 degrees it's 0.707, at 60 it's 0.5, and at 90 degrees it is 0.0 - which makes sense, since you can't really hit a surface coming in at 90 degrees.

tuia · 2013-07-28 14:03:53

Yes, but for simplicity I omitted that. All shots are considered at perfect angle.

Denny · 2013-07-28 14:27:28

tuia, why does every tank have such spots, is it just because they didnt took enough effort in game or what

tuia · 2013-07-28 16:02:16

Of course not. It is a valuable effort.
Tigers had weaker armor on their side, and hitting tracks would partially damage them: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiger_I

The greater penetrating power of the Tiger's gun meant that it could destroy many of its opponents at ranges at which they could not reach, let alone penetrate. Compounding the danger to Allied tank crews was the superior quality of German optics, allowing them better accuracy at distance and increasing their chances of a hit on the first shot. In open terrain this was a major tactical advantage. Opposing tank units were often required to make a flanking attack in order to knock out a Tiger.

X=X=X=X=X=X=X=X · 2013-07-28 16:18:59

i think denny meant planes, not tanks

if not, then like tuia said, they probably just tried to make the game slightly realistic by varying armor thickness and inserting vulnerable regions, just as most military vehicles have in real life

plenty of nice info :

http://team-simple.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=727

http://www.realtimerendering.com/erich/ … stank.html

table from that guide :

JoJo' · 2013-07-28 16:22:15

weak spots of tanks are the backside and tracks.
maybe there are some more, but these 2 are the easiest to hit

vs russian tanks, you also can aim for the ring of the machine gun (light tank) or the top cap of the tower (heavy tank)
1 hit on this spot, instant kills them

@ tuia:
to make it easy, i just aim for the motor of a plane?
