Summary0000388: Found 3 in The Sixth Wonder Mission
Description1st, I cannot select any other ship other than the Perseus fighter (done deliberatly to make mission slightly harder?)
2nd, Hawkwood will go transparent in darker outlines of ship and then reappear.
3rd, and i may be wrong on this but it seems that the medusa bombers are destroyed a little too easily with the subach cannon
Additional Informationusing fs_open_r with the new 3.6.6 media vp files (all of them downloaded from the scp site) Have glowmaps,32bit textures,mipmapping,cellshading turned on, the rest are off (massive game lag with my current hardware with more than this on perhaps 3fps realllllllllly slow). If im becoming irritating lemme know and i`ll quit--i will bet money these problems are due to my slow computer. (computer specs listed in my first bug report)

1. Can't remember the 6th wonder to the detail of the ships available, but you're supposed to be flying intercept at that point in time so being restricted to the Perseus makes sense. Probably should be verified in retail, but I doubt this is a bug as much as a mission-specific thing.

3. That's balance-related, and very hard to quantify. If things are too easy to kill, it might be that performance boosts of some kind are making it easier to land hits than it was before.

2. Could be a real problem, but there's still not much here to work with. Can you get a screenshot of the effect? Because I honestly have no idea what you're describing.

1: Yeah, you're supposed to have to be a perseus...
2: No idea, definayley a graphics deal...
3: Depends on difficulty setting

The mediaVPs shouldn't change balance *at all*, so if you can tell that it's a table modification that's doing more damage, that may be it.

Also, you can include your system specs by going to "My account" at the top of a mantis page, selecting profiles, creating a profile with your computer info, and then setting that profile as the default one.

Go ahead and keep reporting bugs as you find them, your computer is well within the 'supported' hardware requirements (GeForce/Radeon or higher)

ok in the fs2 the sixth wonder mission retail you can select the perseus,herc 2 myrmidon(SP) or a bomber (cant remember the name right off the top of my head). The second on i`ve yet to be able to reproduce again (prob too much running in the background on my end). I still think the medusa bombers are a little too thin skinned, only takes bout 4 shots and they go boom (using all 4 of course!!) Sorry i didnt get back sooner been roofing my house!

ok
1st. bug you are correct i restarted another game and all i got in the retail ver of the game is the perseus so cancel on that bug!
2nd. bug was i guess a one time thing and doesent happen now (go figure!) i flew around the Hawkwood at least 20 times all from diffrent angles and i cant get it to do it now so forget this one too.
3rd. I can live with killing a medusa bomber with only 4 shots from subach cannons just makes the game that much easier to play.
keep up the good work and i`ll report anything else i can find, right now i`m 4 missions from the end and havent spotted anything yet.
