In this one you can crash an JAS 39 Gripen for free
You just have to visit Malmens airforce museum outside Linköping
And no, it´s not me in the cockpit. I was waiting in line to do my crash

edit. Almost for free, it costs 150 Sek. link:http://www.sfhm.se/templates/pages/F...ge____340.aspx edit.

I got all nostalgic looking at all these pics of IL2. So I dusted of my copys of IL2, FB & AEP after about 1yr of not playing.

What are you guy's playing?

I'd totally forgot how cool this sim is.

Pics to follow.

BTW @ Hunter, playing at full realism & landed first time.:rotfl:

Edit - Does anyone remember how to change the max resolution of the game and enable Perfect Settings?

you got FB+AEP eh?

If you have only those 2 we could play online sometime.
I havent upgraded my version because on the IL2 website there are only the patches for FB/AEP/PF merged (meaning u have to have installed all 3)and as you I only have FB+AEP

my version is 2.0
so if you feel like one day we could play online sometime

Its really easy, if you have the same version, you or I could host a game. you just need to know ur own IP adress so I could write that in under JOIN SERVER in the IL2 Multiplayer menu and voíla . you can live see my landing skills

I want PF.

Corrently the Complete Edition is only £9.99 GBP with free delivery. That's cheap.

http://www.play.com/play247.asp?pa=s...C&title=866127

I'll be happy to join you, they can listen to us cursing on TS.:p

I haven't patched my version of AEP but I'll check on the version. But my IL2 + FB + AEP are all merged, is that a problem?

BTW do you know the answer?....

well, I have FB+AEP merged, if you launch up the game you will see a version number in the left bottom, if its 2.0 it must be ok for us to get it online.

to the other question

Start-Progammes - Ubisoft and If i,m right there must be something about Config/Setup. (its a small icon with a hammer on it)
there you can change the graphics/resolution of the game.
you could either choose for setting optimized for your video card. or customize it.
I have to check it at home as I,m currently @work.

I'm at work too.

From what I remember, there is a cfg hack to put your resolution upto something like 1600 x 1200, these options are not in the setup utility. The same is true for the perfect settings issue, again there is a cfg change which will allow you up your graphics settings.

Dowly might know. I can't imagine that with his GFX Card he's playing with standard settings.

Youhoo, Dowly where are you?:p

EDIT: I'm at home around 2 o'clock I will browse the Il2 folder to see where that cfg file is.

SO, this means that you two need to go to the store and buy the 1946.... NOW! :rotfl:

Oh and I havent tinkered with any .cfg files. I use the 1280 x 9-something res.

If I'm going to pay £17.99 for IL2 Sturmovik 1946 then he can bloody well get off his butt and go and buy a mic.:p

Is IL2 Sturmovik 1946 standalone? If not what needs to be your base install?

IL2:1946 is standalone and contains IL2, Forgotten Battles, Aces Expansion, Pacific Fighters, Sturmoviks over Manchuria, Pe-2 and something else I cant remember. Anything that has been released as official expansions are in it.

Good decision, mate.

Also, the flight model and the AI is upgraded. The dogfights with Ace AI players is now much more interesting.
