This is probably going to sound bad, but How do you adjust the Gunsight on the German aircraft...?

is there a Keyboard layout file that is downloadable with all the unassigned commands in it? (its easier to learn said commands rather than trying to come up with the binds myself...)

After 8 or so years of this game, I guess I should learn how to actually play it! :oops:

The German gunsight nor the Allied are adjustable(unless you talk about the late war Gyro Gunsights)..but you can play with some camera settings

by IL2's Default settings:

SHIFT+F1 will make the camera center on the Gunsight.
DELETE - END - DOWNPAGE are Zoom options

Ah, they are always offset inside the reticule, I hoped there was some sort adjustment for that...

Thought I'd ask in this same thread, no sense in making a new thread. Is there a minimum speed to the net speed considering the multiplayer one should have if one is about to get IL-2 1946 as an early X-mas present...?

a Basic DSL would do.

if you could give the details about the Download speed and Upload speed it would gives us a better clue.

I measured both the down and up and they were in the 0,4 mb region. I could get an upgrade up to 1 mb relatively cheaply, it just feels stupid to pay for internet when I used to have it for free.

0,40 mbit?

so if I'm correct you are able to download files at 40kb/s?

Yes. :yep:

@OTH

That should be enough for small/medium size maps/missions. I dont know how it'd fare with big maps with lots of groundobjects and planes in the air. :hmmm:

Yea, aroundish 40. Can be quicker depending on source. Hmm, well I guess it's feasible then, especially if I'll go for the speed upgrade.

Edit. Ok re-did the test, it says Download 0,46 Mb/s and Upload 0,34 Mb/s. Not fast but at least it's mobile.

Should be enough. In my squadron there was someone using a 56K modem and it worked (though poorly).
