LockOn save system

[Pavel]

Guys, can sombeody explain me, how it works??????? I'm collapsing already!

I'm playing Su-27T campaign, first mission, making "Save" during the mission, save to, let's say "res3.sav". Then go out from the game. Later launching res3.sav, going through the first mission, succesfully. Launching second mission, saving to res.sav. Closing the game.

Launching later - only first mission is available in campaign window. In Pilot log - "Mission res3.sav - Success". Loading res.sav - launches in-game save from the second misssion, but with a lot of bugs - in main campaign window still only first mission is available.

WTF????? How to play it???? How can I save there in general???

After completing a mission you get back to the campaign screen, where you can select the next mission. On this screen, go to the left top corner to File/Save - with this you save your current progress.

Saving in the middle of missions can cause some trouble, so try to avoid it if possible

Hm.. if save system works so badly I would better just shut it down not to make a mess.

Anyway... to pass mission without saves is cool.


In this case another question - how you avoid AA missiles from PZRK Igla? Let's say you are going 90 degrees course to the launch guy.
Of course, first of all some flares. But then - do you maneuvre or just going 90 degrees to the missile course? Or you head to the missile? Or away from missile?

Guys with PZRK are my main problem for now. I can manage, but still 50/50 they are shooting me down, which is far not enough.

Put the missile at your 12OC, and when it's near, roll 110-120 deg, and pull the stick hard as you can. Between the roll and the bank, turn on the jammer, and while banking, release flares.

Be sure to have enough altitude before banking while the aircraft is rolled above 90 deg.
