Ok I thought I'd throw my hat in again, just for the heck of it. This one I did as my signature in the forums for the gaming clan I belong to.. It's not purely flight, but it combines some things we all love...



The Corsairs, Hellcats, and Dauntlessessesese way the hell in the back were captured in IL21946, the Balao, well that's obvious, SH4 w/ TMO2.0

I'd got one Sunderland, now somewhere out there is another one on it's last legs -




He tried to lure me down into the water but I had my wits about me and he ended in a watery grave.



Then sadly en route back to France my engine, with virtually no liquids remaining, gave up just off the coast, and I too went to my watery grave.

C'est la vie.

And finally - vill zis fool zem? We'll never know as I met another watery grave before reaching the British coast.

Finally got a playable version of il-2 (thank you HSFX guys). Thought I'd take a P-51 to hunt V1s on a quick mission.

Look bits falling off something that isn't me




Got that, time to land. Found the mettled runway and made my approach, lowered my gear and... err, now it is my bits falling off - my round rubber bits.




Only chance was a belly-landing and then

...run...!

You'll be joining us on Monday then Herr B?

Love the Harrier shots, what Harrier pack is that?

Also, FYI on IL2, try not to lower gear over speeds of 300kmh, it doesn't end well as you have seen, likewise flaps. Not sure what the MPH version is...I think about 140mph off the top of my head, trying to remember what it says next to the gear indicator in the Spitfire.

If the spped in Km/H is 300, then MPH = 186.41

I too have experienced the loss of aircraft parts while flying a bit to fast in the past, LOL

Lower Flaps only when under 300 Km/h
Lower Gear around 200 - 220 km/h (around 130 - 140 mph)

and I think you might want to setup a Game profile in your Nvidia control panel for IL2 1946 to crank up the AA and AF settings for that you're letting that card sleep while playing IL2 and ofcourse the game will look a lot nicer and smoother when you've enabled that.

Aargh, reinstalled it all this morning but forgot about the 4.10.1 patch, can't seem to find it. 242 points me to softpedia but that links somwhere eternally timing-out. Anyone know of another location?

@Oberon - the Harrier is Wilco's, but I still don't have FSUIPC installed yet so the nozzels move but thrust isn't altered. Another thing on my to-do list. It's very stable to fly - maybe that'll change with the thrust direction. I know the GR3s weren't easy to fly IRL, many lost on the runways of Wittering and Wildenrath (have you seen what Siemens have done to that place!) so I was expecting a bit more of a bumpy ride. Had it for a while but only installed a few weeks ago.

Thanks for the speed advice guys, and I'll tweak nVidia's CP

About 30 seconds after posting, obviously. I meant to pop back and edit but got distracted with skins, conf.ini changes, and CP settings to try tonight. 4:3 be gone.

Or maybe PAYDAY first, see if I can open that damn door in Heat Street.*



*just kidding, I know how to open the door, just press fffffffffffffffffff...

to get IL2 into widescreen:

in the config.ini

[window]
width=xxxx - set to native monitor resolution
height=xxxx - set to native monitor resolution
ColourBits=32
DepthBits=24
StencilBits=8
ChangeScreenRes=1
FullScreen=1
DrawIfNotFocused=0
EnableResize=1 <- set to 0
EnableClose=1
SaveAspect=1 <- set to 0
Use3Renders=0

still the menu will have these black bars on each side but in-game it's widescreen.
