Put me in any wing you like.

(Damn it can't wait for friday, although I have a feeling that the AI 109s will drive us insane...

Yes, considering we're more than likely to be flying P-36s and Hurri Mk. Is

I just flew a few mock fights in a Hurri Mk1 against an AI 109E-4 in QMB, and...

I won all of them eventually, but only after damaging the 109 in an almost head-on pass enough so that I could catch him. Thank god for those glass-jaw DB601As

Frustration is the word I think, since the fight always went like this: I dodge the first head-on pass, after which both turn. I easily get on the other fellas tail but too far to effectively open fire. He starts a shallow turning climb to get away, which is impossible to follow. I straighten out and put the Hurri into max climb while watching the other fella. When he sees I've given up the chase he pulls up into into vertical and does a hammerhead. Here's your chance: If you turn back towards him immediately after he starts the hammerhead you'll get a nice shot from above when he's coming down. After this he'll extend, you'll turn after him and the chase is on again...

Edit: If you want the better modded gunsight reticles, go to your IL2/MODS folder and remove the "-" in front of the "BritishReticlesMod" folder. It's disabled by default.

Cant say i'm overjoyed at the locked cockpits

I dont mind flying l/c but its when something unfortunate happens early in the sortee, its the sitting watching ....well nothing... sorry but i just dont have the patience for this at the moment.

Is there a way to remove the new extremley crappy sound when the plane gets hit by something? It sounds like a cola vendor dropping a can.

Thats what bullets sound like when hitting metal

It sounds a hell of a lot better than stock

Schroeder · 11-10-08, 03:21 PM

Sorry, but I really don't think that a bullet hitting something makes a continous sound for almost 1 sec. It should be one bang and that's it. Here we have several sounds in a row which are supposed to be one impact.:hmm:

Does aircraft gunnery have the ability to fire single shots? I would imagine when you squeeze that trigger your going to let off more than one round, so i would think your gonna get hit by more than one bullet. Whether your evading or attacking, bullets are faster. If i were a modder thats the way i would be thinking

We ran tests tonight and the following aircraft are now able to be flown:

Hurricane MkI
Spitfire MkI
M.S.406
Blenheims
P-36 Hawk
C-47

I really like the Hurricane

That is a stunning looking hurri!

much better than the ones in my game... is it au natural 4.09 or are there non-recommended extras there?

HunterICX · 11-11-08, 03:29 AM

No, it's just a Hurricane MkI with a very well done BoB skin
