Tonight I saw something I observed many, many years ago - someone bombing a target that looked clearly down to me. At 1 hour 10 min into the game, Ace was bombing a factory (I think) that was down. He was dropping bombs on buildings that were flattened - he wouldn't have done that unless he saw them as up.
When this problem was realized years ago, it was discovered that players with RB3D saw target damage differently than those running RB2 with the 3D patch. That is why I kept asking Ace which version he had, which he couldn't seem to answer. I have RB3D, and I bet he has RB2 patched. Of course, there may be another problem causing this, but I am going by memory of the problem we had back in the day.

Nevermind-Swampfox dislikes the idea.

I am less certain about effects between RBII patched, and RB3D (patched or otherwise...multiple potential issues?) flying with FCJ. When some from the "Survivors" Facebook flew with us (once), they were apparently ALL flying RBII patched....although no one ever explained why.
You can see what happens with FCJ by flying with one of you running FCJ and the other regular (fully loaded) RB3D. Pick an easy target like a small factory, one bombs it to DESTROYED and both observes. Can't remember which way Wolfgang and I did it first time.... but what you will see for certain is that one will see the target drop, and the other does not. But as I recall...both see (TARGET) FACTORY DESTROYED THEN, the other, still seeing the target up, destroys it and both again will see (TARGET) FACTORY DESTROYED. If you run this test, let us know if you see TARGET for both DESTROYED.
This, like the 50% rule on target hardening is completely consistent and reproducible...which is very satisfying to see experimentally.

Hmm... So THAT'S what he meant.
