Ah that's what it was. I was about to say how I was puzzled that you didn't have it, but then I bought FB and Aces at the same time. That must be it.
I may join you folks in 1946 sometime. Just don't have the time for it lately. |

not bad thought as it easy to spot we mostly play online around 22.00 GMT + 1 Sometimes I host, or we join the UK dedicated 1,2 or 3 Q: if its 2200GMT +1 our time, what time is at your place CCIP?

well important factors of carrier take offs for beginners take the A6M1 (Zero) without any BOMBs , ''bombs will add weight to the plane and will pull you down into the water, you can take of with bombs but you its really tight space between you and the water when you will lift up'' also in IL2 1946 controls settings, its the matter of setting the Right key for the ''toggle chokes'' function , the chokes are the things that will stick the plane to deck untill you press it to release it so you can start to take off. so here are some steps as a ZERO: 1. make sure your wings are NOT folded (you will find the key in the Control settings of IL2) 2.Start your engine and set flaps to Take off 3. go full throttle and release the chokes 4. keep your plane in a straight line with the rudder controls. 5. when leaving the deck , pull up gently! (if you pull up to hard your plane will stall and you can have a nice swim) 6. have fun. About landings...well...lets not think about that , even I havent mastered the landings on a Carrier (succeeded : 1 failed (remember danlisa?:rotfl: ) : lost count )

Rofl, I've had to land to a carrier while playing online a few times (you get the full scores for downing an enemy plane etc. only if you manage to land AFAIK). But trust me, you wouldn't have wanted to see the landings! :rotfl:I always come on too fast, quickly push my tail down so the hook gets the thingy, the plane bounces from the deck a few meters to the air and the rubber thingy stops the plane in ~4 meters of altitude and slams it in the deck. Poor pilot.:p

Really would like to buy IL2, but kinda worried. I picked up LockOn and was mortified by the lack of instruction and the complexity. Ick, not for me.
Is IL2 better?

That said, IL-2 is definitely the finest technologically-up-to-date WWII sim out there |
