If you are stuck on this, a workaround is to go to the campaign map view and tweak any of the waypoints, and the map in the cockpit gets updated to your current position.

Hey guys

Awesome work

I reinstalled EECH+EEAH after some 10 years. It's great as ever. Well better with all this community work. I always knew EExH is a superb platform for extending beyond the two games.

Anyway I encountered a few issues with the 1.15 packs, maybe they've been mentioned. I'll read the 19 pages later.

1) When flying a mission with AH-64D, I got hit by ground fire in the left wing. Nothing bad, lost a few rockets and radar but nothing related to flight was affected. Yet, after the hit the helicopter began to bob up and down by about 10 degrees, about 3 times per second. The helicopter was controllable normally but the visual effect was quite epilepsy-inducing and eventually I crashed when landing. I think this bobbing was a physics glitch, since a helicopter with damage that would cause such erratic behaviour wouldn't be flyable at all I think.

2) I encountered something similar when I left the autopilot to land the RAH-66. It touched down but the rear gear got stuck in the ground while the front vibrated up and down. As soon as I disabled the autopilot the helicopter blew up.

3) At one point during a recon mission (all these things happened during one Georgia campaign), the ground control radio got stuck in the loop, repeating 'This is ground control. Requesting support at grid' (without specifying the grid). It sorted itself out when I paused, went to the map screen and back.

4) And finally, the alternative menu screens sometimes simply don't work, randomly. I get the default EECH screens instead. On next startup the community screens are back. No big deal. Just saying.


Keep up the good work. I wish I could help developing all these awesome things, unfortunately I don't know this stuff

1) may be it was rotor blades damage? if rotor wasn't damaged you still can fly. didn't see other dynamic forces that appears after taking damage.
3) I think it was fixed by Magitek, just read related topic.

I am trying to figure out what you are talking about.... :

I think he's saying that sometimes the main menu background uses the original EECH artwork instead of the new images (Of Apache's flying, hinds, hokums, missiles, etc)

Which IIRC isn't a bug, the old artwork folder is included in the list of styles the game can pick randomly.

I want to report a bug that i detected, maybe it has been posted already, if that is the case, then disregard my post.
On the 2d menus, i get intermittent "blinking" of the graphical interface, roughly every 1 or 1.5 seconds, it is an effect similar to what you experience when you blink, that is, the whole interface goes black for a very very small amount of time, this ONLY happens on the 2D menus (all of them), this bug does not manifest on the 3D part of the game on any form.
I am using the DS version of the 1.15 executable on a 64 bits machine running W7UX64.

Alemart, just remembered that similar thing happens when game fighting with other app for fullscreen - popup message of messenger appears in my case. may be you have something like that in background.

I understand, unfortunately i was only running EECH at the moment, nothing else on the background, not even STEAM.

Did someone fix any of these problems occurring in 1.11.1 and partly in 1.14.0? I don't see fixes in the patchlog.

* Rear rotor sinking.

* Hiccough of the nose, when rear rotor sank in.

* No collision with wires possible, although the manual speaks of it.

* Smoke killing FPS. Is that solved by eech-smoke-1.14.0.exe ?

* Heli going mad, e. g. starting to spin extremely hard as if a key was locked in the midst of flying. Spamming Y, X, T, Shift-T, P and so forth solves it after a few seconds.

* Helicopters are recreated when I quit the mission.

* I can land in many objects without fatal loss.

* Recon missions in the 2nd Taiwan Skirmish can't be completed, because the Comm menu does not highlight the 'Transmit Recon' option even when flying directly over X with activated FLIR or DTV, or am I not group leader?

* Heli can slip from a carrier and will sometimes stand on water while sliding back.

I can overlook all the graphical issues on the surface like shadows disappearing or being drawn at the wrong place and planes driving through airport buildings, but the simulation aspect seems to be broken. If I want to simulate bugs and glitches I'd install any piece of crap software that I can find any day on the internet. So please refrain from any advertising for EECH.

Did I insult you by calling EECH a bugs-and-glitches-simulator? I think it's time to stop showing people the polished screenshots with normal situations and rather show them this:

So that they know that it was never completed.

I fixed many collision problems (1, 7, 9 as well), will release it soon someday. Unstable helicopter behavior is caused by primitive dynamics system, so it's actually not bugs. Let's say it's reminders to move forward =)


AI take control of it, or you talking about something else?


Ok, ok.. will try to control myself next time.

Are you saying you're leaving, or inviting MadMike to leave? If you are, you're out of order. He's only asking if bugs have been fixed, in a thread about bugs.

I too feel that the quality of some aspects of the game have slipped in recent updates.

Hey!!



I am the person who took that screenshot.



Therefore I own all intellectual property rights to it.



I didn't see you asking for permission in writing from me before you'd repost it?



DMCA violation!

To make it clear, the complaints are aiming at advertisers, reviewers and the company, not free-time-developers.

I appreciate that you (thealx and others) do other people's jobs. I currently don't have time for EECH to get a proper overview over all the different versions and test them by myself due to private issues and lack of sufficient hardware.

@ColJamesD: Just borrowing.

XIII, you definitely overreacted. Didn't see any kind of rudeness. If anyone will tell me that eech is serious simulator I'll call it #%&*$# too, and it's true.

If anyone will find any kind of bugs or just suspect that something goes wrong - you are still welcome. This thread is really important.

I played the entire Taiwan Skirmish #2 this morning and I have had no problem doing recon mission after recon mission and transmitting - flying carrier based Vipers and Cobras.

I am using V1.15.

Yes, Second Taiwan Skirmish is working fine in EEAH + EECH 1.15.0. It didn't work in EECH 1.11.0.

Landing on water is possible in EEAH + EECH 1.15.0 as well as flying through electric cable and a few other things. I have no time to figure everything out, but you probably know the issues.

Cockpits, graphics, textures, sounds, etc. are all improved. It's almost like a successor.

Now my EECH only 1.11.0 installation crashes after I installed the fully modded package, too. Must be some conflict.

I think this was found earlier. It's to do with the collision detection for the gear. With gear down, you can land on water. But if you put it up, you crash. I think it was introduced when the suspension dynamics were added.

Guys, gears collision with water fixed already =) Don't waste your time on discussions. I will make announcement of all changes when I'll finish what I am doing now.
