Need an assistance for translating new fh site

I see english!

letez has a video on there of his flight. I have hundreds of videos and probably a couple dozen I could upload. Anyone have a suggestion for what software to use for capturing the video replay from WBFH?

 

Hmmm spoke too soon. This page here http://wbfree.net/new/index.php?category=newbee&section=aircrafts&lang=en is in Russian yet. Say, for this aircraft link I could create an image snapshot of each aircraft and their characteristics.

Maybe exec has some ideas as well?

 

There placed a temporary text.

Nice idea. There they will look great.

 

Can you update this information for this page?:

Intense WWII combat is only one click away!



flk, uncles, when putting the download links for this on the website, there should be language instructions for each and also some way of mirroring automatically to have reliable links. On this thread, http://forum.wbfree.net/forums/showthread.php?t=39957 some of exec's links are dead because of no traffic or just deleted for some reason. Unless we have a good reliable location for the files we need?

 

I have tried for years to make the WB exe work properly inside a GNU+Linux PC. Haven't been able to. I have tried and gotten the thing to run in a WM, but the FH parts don't work ..
And the WB part sucks really bad in a VM.
And
WINE is a joke.
Anyone else out there tried to get it to work in a VM of any make? I have failed in a para-virtulaized VM and some other types, I can't remmber the acronyms for.

I think it is a Microsoft windows binary and it will remain able to run in MSWindows 98 PCs just fine.

 

Is all of the current content placeholder info

I noticed tracks were mentioned before. Is there a designated person to which we must send in-flight videos of tracks to upload to the site?

Also, does FH have a twitter account? I can make that (perhaps tumbler as well) and post some of the content from the website as well as short video clips. We can also have a page for tips which will be seperated into aircombat, bombing, field capture, and "other". I can be responsible for creating the content for those pages. I am most adept at speaking and writing in English though, so the pages will have to be translated by someone else.

What do you guys think?

 

ALW, I don't think that I can commit changes to the repository yet. Will check with FLK again.

Your text is much better than mine, anyway

 

Hahah....thanks. On the webpage, there is a "free download" button that is an image with Russian text. Need to update the image or, better yet, create a button backdrop or cell frame image grid, and then over-impose text that can be translated.

By the way, what html editor are you using for that webpage?

 

far, mc, gedit, vim

 

aircraft section was supposed for airplane principal info, advantages and weakness

for example:

Messerschmitt Bf 109: A principal mainstay of offensive operations of Luftwaffe with multiple versions throughout the entire war, including models Bf 109 E-4, F-2, F-4, G-2, G-6, G-14, and K-4.
Purpose: Fighter, light fighter-bomber, light interceptor
Advantages: The main advantage of Bf 109 over opponents is climb rate and dive acceleration. Manoeuvrability is slightly inferior to Spitfires and Yak-fighters, but careless opponent can be killed by Bf 109 even in turnfight. When trying to escape from under attack, Bf 109 can easily dive out of any Allied fighter (but P-40, P-51, F4U and P-47).
Disadvantages: The principal disadvantages in the real life are short flight range and flight time, though in the game you won't regard these as critical. Another disadvantage is relatively bad rear view. Regularly swivel your plane, because enemy easily could crawl up to you from under six o'clock.
Specific tactics (over common fighter tactics): vertical combat.
With additional cannons placed in external gunpods (see /R6 versions), you almost loose your climb advantage, thus change your tactics accordingly.
Stats:
Speed: *****
Climb: *****
Accel: ****
Dive: ****
Salvo: **
Durability: ***


Yakovlev Yak-7, Yak-9: Initially Yak-7 was a more stable and durable training airplane for Yak-1/Yak-3 fighters line. But the war forced USSR to adopt Yak-7 for the fighter role as well. The following versions were Yak-9 and Yak-9T. (Also IRL existed D, DD, B, M, U, UT).
Purpose: fighter, light interceptor.
Advantages: Quite stable flight, easy for inexperienced pilots. Decent acceleration, climb rate, speed, manoeuvrability. Not top characteristics, but the combination of these allow a prudent novice to match any experienced opponent.
Disadvantages: Low firepower. You priority is to learn how to put the bullet right into the target.
Specific tactics (over common fighter tactics): no specific tactics.
Yak-9T can dictate head-on attacks and gain from errors enemy made when evading these head-ons. Only Fw 190 can match Yak-9T in firepower and yet a clever opponent will try to avoid head-ons anyway, especially vs Yak-9T.
Other Yak's can manipulate enemies with the danger of head-on attack against Yak-9T.
Stats:
Speed: ****
Climb: ****
Accel: ***
Dive: ***
Salvo: *
Durability: ***

DeHavilland Mosquito: A line of versions from quite a strange concept: an unarmed bomber with unmatched speed. All of versions could hit the enemy and run-away before enemy could react and send interceptors.
Purpose: light bomber, fighter-bomber (night interceptor and night escort fighter in real life, but not in the game).
Advantages: speed. Once you gained the speed, your visit to any object in enemy territory and return home safely. Fighter version has a powerful salvo, allowing head-on attacks to most of fighters.
Disadvantages: not manoeuvrable. Acceleration is slow, should you loose the speed, you won't be able to escape any enemy fighter.
Specific tactics (over common fighter tactics): Bomber: fly straight at medium altitudes and turn slowly - with this tactics no enemy fighter can take-off and chase you up. However, check carefully for fighters that already in-flight, especially those above you. They can chase you up and shoot you down. Look around often. Fighter: fly straight, turn slow, prefer head-on attacks. Maintain your speed or you're dead at once.
Stats:
Speed: *****
Climb: **
Accel: **
Dive: ***
Salvo: ***** (Fighter)
Salvo: - (Bomber)
Durability: *****

Nakajima Ki-43-II «Hayabusa». Outdated at birth, Ki-43 still had beaten many of allied pilots that haven't renewed their old mentality about aerial battle. Rushing into close dogfight they all fallen victims to this King of Turnfight. When allied pilots finally realized disadvantages of Hayabusa, it became useless. In the game some players don't realize it yet, so you still can troll those with your Ki-43.
Advantages: Acceleration from low to medium speed is unmatched in the game. Manoeuvrability is best (after Ki-27 and I-153). Zoom climb is quite remarkable. At low-to-medium speeds you can do with your opponent whatever you want (But if an opponent escapes from you, you will never reach him ever again).
Disadvantages: Low top speed, bad diving performance. Low firepower. Fragile under enemy fire.
Specific tactics (over common fighter tactics): Provoke carefully your opponent to turn at you. If you do it too aggressively, he will break the attack and gain altitude for a next approach. Once you lurked your enemy to chase you in turning, he will loose the speed and you can obtain a new scalp. If enemy tries to gain the speed, shot him and make him turn from your line-of-fire, again and again, until he looses speed one more time.
Stats:
Speed: ***
Climb: ****
Accel: *****
Dive: **
Salvo: *
Durability: *

Or something like that. Hope you see the line.

Although "Best track" section is still not working yet, i can place some tracks to site and make links to they.

Yes, we need the content. It was planned that these will be short texts, but we need a writer.

 

Ok I will write those and then post the TXT files and images here.
I guess FH does not have a twitter or tumblr account so I will make those as well as soon as the website goes live

 

Thanks, Flk. I can commit stuff now.

 

I made an English image. We should defer to the project owners about how to
implement the site. It looks like it has a good PHP templating system.

After we commit something to the repository, the admins can look it over, make mods, and deploy to the web site when they consider it OK.

If you're on Windows, you could use something TextPad. People get pretty crazy about text/code editors and IDEs

If you wanna be hard core, be on Linux and use Eclipse, hehe

 

I used MS Frontpage back in 2001 and, it's still on this machine. What a clunker it looks like now.

I was looking around for a good html editor and randomly chose a java editor, Aptana Studio. Haven't made an effort to try using it but, when chatting with godaddy.com about webpages, they told me about a good free editor but, forgot which one that was.

Hahah....Linux.....that's for you, Hezey, dement. %)

 

Wow, lots of data there. I'm thinking of keeping to the highlights of the aircraft specs, and maybe we'll have a "more details" page link.

 

BTW exec, I sent you a pm about your download page, http://forum.wbfree.net/forums/showthread.php?t=39957. Several of your links are dead.

 

tx, will reinspect links and files

 

and specific tactics.
