I have downloaded and checked its all working before the access finished, but then played assetto corsa, lol. Looking forward to a time when you can't roll the 109 faster than the historical time for a Fw190, just with the rudder though. Am looking forward to the weather though, and am very pleased to here that it isn't going to be RoF clouds in the final, which i personally don't like very much. Edit, the yak pictures look nice over at the BoS forums.

I will do for tonight.

Wake me up when it gets interesting.

Never had a problem myself with the saitek profiler.

priceless

I'm also interested in the Logitech G25, would like a clutch pedal and stick shift for assetto corsa, how much do you want for that?

Done, i'll pm you for details.

I would like to buy one of the msffb2's if you're sure you're selling.

can only change your convergence online or in the fmb (what i did) otherwise it doesn't save, or edit the user.ini file. All your ini files are saved here, C:\Users\xxxxx\Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover - MOD

after a fair bit of practise you can do this automatically by listing to the engine rpm, it becomes second nature.

by the way, it will be my birthday, so you all have to protect me!

Use our server, its what its there for. It runs 24/7 and is imaginatively called dangerdogz, p/w xxxxxxxxx The reason its there is so people can practise anytime they want, without the worry of human breathers ruining there practise time. Its set up so there is enemy bombing raids focussed on the Hawkinge, Lympe and Dover areas, Hawkinge, Manston and Lympe are all available to use. Most bomber raids come in at around 12-15000 ft. Manston is the safest place to start if you don't want an enemy bomb to disrupt your practise! You will cold start, just as on ATAG. Wed night on ATAG will not be the best time to be asking a hundred questions of how do i do this, this thread however is the perfect place, and our server is the perfect place to practise these things. Things you will need to know. 1) how to start your engine (ie turn the fuel on, move the throttle forward an inch or so) and how not to overheat your engine and blow the engine after 30 seconds (THIS WILL HAPPEN IF YOU DON'T OPEN THE RADIATOR AND REDUCE YOUR PROP PITCH). First thing i do upon getting in a new plane is open the radiator to 100%, before anything else, should be the first thing you do. Only time i use 100% pitch is for take off and landing, even in combat rarely if ever go above 80%, cruise normally around 60%. 2) how to set your compass, Do this whilst your engine is warming up. http://dangerdogz.com/forums/topic/10317-setting-your-compass-in-spits-and-hurris/ This thread, and post number 13 by Robo explains the compass much more in depth, http://theairtacticalassaultgroup.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4011 3) how to set your gunsight and turn it on. There are two wheels on the gunsight, one is to set it to your convergence (note, this is in yards, your convergence in the ini files is in metres so you need to convert), and one is to set it for the wingspan of what you are hunting. I use the clickable cockpit mouse cursor to do this whilst the engine is warming up. There is a button located behind the gunsight on the left hand side to turn it on and off, although i map a key for this myself. this thread is also useful for puting a little pic in your cockpit, giving enemy wingspans, http://dangerdogz.com/forums/topic/11248-quick-reference-to-the-huns-wingspan-for-your-instrument-panel/ Some more useful stuff, a) If you want much more effective weapon loadouts that the stock ones, here you can have mine! (convergence set at 200m so you need to use 220 yards when setting your gunsight up) http://dangerdogz.com/forums/topic/11247-my-ammo-belt-loadouts/ Note there is no tracer in these loadouts, as this gives away you are firing, there is however plenty of DeWilde, which gives a flash on impact which is better than tracer imo. b ) Also if you haven't tinkered with all your info windows, again you can have how i have set mine up to give you a headstart, copy this text into your confUser.ini file found here, C:\Users\kevin\Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover - MOD At the end of the file, look for the [ChatWindow] section, This may require them to be moved around a bit if you're not running 1920 x 1200 like i am though.

As I eluded to in the shoutbox yesterday, would like to try to get as many of us as possible to fly together on ATAG in a Dangerdogz wing. It was really good fun the other night, with myself, APHill, Faustnik and Fenrir. The more we have together, the more we can really have some fun, definitely strength in numbers is useful! So what time is a good time to fly for everybody who's interested?

The map was a mess at release. Big, yes, good no. Spit mk vb is a certainty and won't be hard for them to do at all, the 109 F much more work, but they will certainly be thinking of it long tern, expect to see the E7 soon which again won't be to hard for them to do. Fw190, i'd stick to BoS!

Fortunately, modern GFX cards just eat it up!

news to me if you can..... anisotropic filtering yes, but aa don't think so, and even if you can, certainly nowhere near what you can do with nvidia.

Thats a kinda funny thing to say about the map in particular, since they've improved it a thousand fold. New map is already well into development, my moneys on the med somewhere.

Make sure you set the nvidia control panel for the il2fb.exe rather than the il2.exe. Then use these settings. The mix of 16xQ Csaa and Supersampling gives the best results, as long as your card can handle it.

Are you nvidia?
