Agree with you on the windnoise FT, very annoying, also finding the ground handling tricky, Iv went round in circles a few times because I opened the throttle too quick

So far I have only found two types 1. Hardcore - full CEM , no icons, no speedbar 2. Relaxed or Normal , no CEM , icons, minimap,speedbar Is there any middle ground , with CEM but with icons?

Thought Id start this so folk can comment on the online servers they play on, good, bad,tips,links etc

Id say no but only due to the fact that Il2 is still by far the most used and popular and so deserves its slots- sundays tend to be long missions and the quick dogfight scenario is catered for on Tuesdays, however having seen the low turnout on tuesdays recently I dont know if my argument is valid. Is there anything wrong in making Wednesdays BoX nights ?

Just thought some might like to see these in place , looks good, just need to sort out how to ge tthem to work now , maybe the minions can help

Just a note to say that joytokey appears to work well in testing, will try in game later I create a profile and can assign keyboard presses ( including shift and crtl) to buttons. I create a second profile and can map different keyboard actions to the buttons I can then assign a change profile key to the pinky lever which then swops to the diffferent profile so I have 2 times the number of buttons on joystick and throttle I should be able to get most of the important keys on joystick and the auxillary on the new panels. well thats the theory, Ill let you know the practice later

Iv put the game keys back to default and mapped the joystick in the game and all ok, no crashes or freezing. pinky shift and modes dont work so iv ordered thrustmaster MDC panels to cover all the buttons ill need. Ill spend the next couple of days mapping everything when the panels arrive thnks for support Dave

thanks crash Ill order the MFD, looks cool if nothing else ! fraid dont have patience for building something like that Jabo Ill try the MFD thanks both

anyone used one? thoughts ? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Logitech-Saitek-Flight-Switch-Panel/dp/B01MQ0GFUH

quick scan on forum and it seems there is a problem and that joytokey might be a solution , Im away to investimigate

ok , Iv never just assigned buttons in game sooooooooooooooo I can assign a button and when it takes it it says JOY1_b2 which is fine but how do you use the shift modes and the 1.2.3 modes nothing makes any difference it just lists JOY1_b2 the pinky shift is button 6 in the windows game controllers so when I use this + A surely it should read 6+ JOY1_b2 ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? and Iv no idea how modes would be differentiated

thanks mate, Im lost, Iv even downloaded the new logitec software but same happens , ill try to map everything in game with no software bugger bugger bugger, ill go and buy a cat so i can kick it first

ok Im having big problems with inputs I have a Saitek X-52 running in windows 7 pro joystick is set up to match inputx on the saitek software not in game The joystick works fine in windows and il246 HSFX and when I do the test joystick in profiler however there are problems when in BOX 1) when I change modes e.g from 2 to 1 all kinds of shit happens, e.g the autopilot comes on by itself and the pinky shift on the joystick doesnt work right and then I lose all my bindings when I go back to mode 2 even the keyboard wont work 2) sometimes when I go to external view F2 then back to internal F1 I loose all controls including keyboard 3) I cant get man prop pitch to work , I can switch from auto to manual but then neither keyboard nor binding buttons or a hat will work I have it mapped to LSHIFT+ - and LSHIFT+= 4) it doesnt seem to understand difference between keys and shift keys ???? another problem is that the launcher wont close properly and sometimes hangs- any ideas folks ???????????

thank you , have spent 2 days checking hotas assignments and now good to give it a try

new 1050 TI 4gb o/c is in and running !!!!! Thanks for info FT im away to put all the controls in

IV bitten the bullet , downloading now let you know how I get on

does the 109 G2 have the armour restricting rear vision?

official site offering sale on some releases.............

Has anyone tried to contact those who were once regular on here but have fallen away ? Perhaps there is a way to get them back from time to time, might just be mission types or time slots that we could adjust, probably "Real Life " sim but might be worth an e-mail shot

For me il2 is still the king- it offers the diversity of planesets and gameplay that the others simply do not. However how long can it still reign ? If it is coming to its end then obviously we must look at alternatives. So here are my thoughts on the pretenders to the crown CloD - this is a hobbiest development, cant see where its going or how fast DCS - too complicated for the more casual type of flyer which I think is the majority BoX- looks to be the best option, but still frustrated by cost of getting into it and lack of some game modes such as co-op. If they can fix this then Id be willing to move to it Where does that leave the Dogz , well firstly unless we sort out the finances and support the site then at one point we will be even more casual. I also dont believe we will recruit many more younger players to join us as the WW2 sim base was always smallish and generally appeals to older folk with the likes of battlefield more suited to the younger generation. For the established players the variaty of sims has split even this small base,with mod versions and other sims. We are known in the IL2 community and have a server for CLod so that leaves the alternatives and why would anyone established in BoX leave their squad for us? So in summery to keep the Dogz going I think we sort out the finances and wait developments. Once BoX has co-ops then we can have a further discussion on hosting these, however this would split the group further as we already host il2, CloD and DCS.

Here is how they launched a walrus from a ship https://youtu.be/6dmNyts7f1w. Bet they had fun doing all that under fire in the pissing rain in the north Atlantic

Id appreciate your feedback on the mission fundimentals for future planning , here are some subheadings you may like to consider icons ok or not minimap ok off or prefer white plane time too long/ too short map ok to keep as secret or prefer to see before to help plan teams ok to draw on night or prefer longer time to meet to discuss and plan targets - ok or not enough brief , mayby wasnt clear enough or would you prefer more details any other issues Please remember that its the first one Iv really put together so happy for positive feedback to help with other ideas I have My aim is to have these challenging but fun, S Delta
