Todays update http://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/1763-developer-diary-part-38/

Anything with an engine or two please

Glad you are flying again Todd. I will set my controls up and give it a go.

News from Zac Before 19 November we'll announce the start of early access + some other news later this week in the dev blog update.

Audacity is free and good.

Much button assignments have taken place. I am using xpadder which is a nice program and you can have a picture of your controller and show the button assignments BUT its not too obvious how to set up 2 controllers with different profiles. I think I have now sorted it and successfully wobbled my way into the sky using the profile and then back to Il-2 set the profiles and then flew that On the to do list are A-10C, FC3 Clifford and Rof. This might take some time.

You guys going for the DCS as well? Looks like they have enough donations for the Me-262 so its going to get complicated

Check your control assignments mate - unfortunately in DCS unlike Il-2 you can assign two axes to the same function so it maybe that you have another axis giving throttle input - as default the game assigns all axes equally so throttle quadrant axis y is mapped to exactly the same as joystick axis y and rudder axis y. Straight out of the box you'll have an impossible task trying to fly it so getting the controls all ironed out is a must! The crucial point here is to clear any input devices other than that you want it to be from the various input fields. Hope I am making sense. Otherwise post a screenie of your controls page for me. Thanks for your help Tom. An other problem I had was the brakes axis was reversed! Anyway the 1st 2 attempts at taking off resulted in flying :) On the second flight I tried stalls loops low level flybys and I landed OK only to run off the runway onto the grass and lose a piece of wing. Much button assignments to come.

Thanks for that, I did a bit of flying about earlier on (Not tried take of or landing yet) and the manifold pressure gauge was bouncing about like mad. Also the throttle handle was displayed as jumping about. I might have to put some damping on my throttle or something but it didnt show when I checked in the windows controllers.

Hi Fen, I feel like giving the P51 a go, so what are the basic essential buttons to allocate to practice take-offs and landings?

Glad you are having a good day mate. Best wishes from the Land of Song. Isnt it.

Hi OD, the Bodnar board uses a small USB port and you need to get a USB cable to plug into your computer.

I understand Brando, I bought the box as well. However the 2 new games ARE different as 777 and DCS are both involved. Jason and Loft are doing a great job communicating what it happening, and although Luthier has previous, with The Fighter Collection/Eagle Dynamics doing quality control I feel that we should get 2 excellent sims by this time next year.

This looks good

Any one else backing this? http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/508681281/dcs-wwii-europe-1944 Quote from Ilya

You can also get the patch here http://dangerdogz.com/forums/files/file/511-il-2-megapatch4101m-enrar/

I woulnt bother deleting 4.12 as this will be needed for HSFX 7 which is arriving quite soon Use this on the DVD install http://www.mission4today.com/index.php?name=Downloads&file=details&id=4088 It will get 4.07 up to 4.10 in one go but it is a big download!

Here you go. You need to install over a clean 4.11.1 and use the JSME to enable the different mods http://www.242sqn.com/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=30&sid=d894fd2dfc191fe9022b7bedb7073d71 This site contains ALL the HSFX stuff. I think that you need to install up to 6.12 and then use the updater.

Welcome back. Its always good to see old dogz return At the moment we are running HSFX6.17 expert mode. which you will need to install over 4.11.1 There could well be people on TS today and tomorrow evening UK time with co-ops on Sunday 7:30pm UK time. So keep an eye open and say hello.

Happy Birthday Jabo!

This

This is because of people complaining that they HAVE to LockOn installed. Also the FM is more accurate and the pits are 6DoF You dont need these if you have FC3 installed as the update give you the extras.

Enjoy your day boys It will be great to meet you both next year at Flying Legends.

I am going to pre-order next week.
