DD_Arthur Posted June 24, 2017 Author Posted June 24, 2017 Prop-pitch tied to throttle? Sounds like your game is in 'Normal' difficulty mode. This means simplified flight physics and engine management. To check - and to put your game into the same settings you'd use for IL2 1946, CLoD and DCS - go into the QMB screen and down the bottom right is the select realism button. Click on it and then select custom mode and UNCHECK all the boxes except; Object markers Allow spectators Warmed up engine Auto pilot Much nicer! Re-shade settings? I'm using the latest version which is now 3.something or other. Check out post #10 in this thread; https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/26142-reshadesweetfx-help/ Quote
Snacko Posted June 25, 2017 Posted June 25, 2017 Yes. Realism was set to Normal. Now it's set to what you said. And I saw your ReShade settings. Thx! Cheers! Just so I am clear.. There is no tail lock? I watched the videos you posted and some others.. And they said the tail wheel was steerable with the pedals. So, I guess it does not just lock if it is steerable? Quote
DD_Arthur Posted June 26, 2017 Author Posted June 26, 2017 P40 tailwheel works like this; If you do NOT push on the rudder bar the tail wheel is left locked in place. If you push the rudder more than 30 degrees the tailwheel becomes steerable. You only need that for sharp turns from parking spots and then use the toe brakes too. In the video - when I'm taxiing around the track to the start of the runway, with just a little speed up - I'm just using a spot of rudder to keep it going right. Only about 15% throttle. Oh yeah; once airborne you can close the cooling flaps almost completely. Be prepared to crash - a lot! Quote
DD_Arthur Posted August 17, 2017 Author Posted August 17, 2017 Another BIG update coming to BoS at the end of this month which will see the release of the Kuban map with the water technology from RoF added to the game along with new FM calculations for all planes, new shadow technology, torpedoes, enhanced graphic options and the usual host of minor upgrades, bug fixes, etc. Kuban release has now become an important step on the way to Battle of Midway - the next BoX theatre. Kuban also has - thank heavens - mountains and sea; a pleasant change from the endless steppe of Stalingrad and the equally endless regions of forest and marsh around Moscow. Just a reminder if you has BoS but have not fired it up in a while; for several months now you have been able to access all of the maps in multiplayer even if you only have one of the base games. For example - if you only own BoS you are able to fly on the Moscow map in multiplayer. Also, if you haven't updated your game in a while I would think it worth doing now - before the release of what will be a major, game changing patch. Oh yeah; could not resist posting a quick Spitfire circuit in my Vb with Merlin 45M engine 1 Quote
DD_Arthur Posted September 9, 2017 Author Posted September 9, 2017 A spot of sightseeing in the mountains............ and dogfighting over the coast.......... The Kuban is one big, BIG map! 1 Quote
DD_Arthur Posted September 14, 2017 Author Posted September 14, 2017 This is going to blow your VR socks off, Crash Quote
Crash Posted September 17, 2017 Posted September 17, 2017 I have a feeling that I will have to get BoK Quote
2. Administrators Jabo Posted September 22, 2017 2. Administrators Posted September 22, 2017 Agreed Dave, I have BoS and BoM so far so I'll end up buying it eventually I'm sure Quote
Snacko Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 That looks like the best map so far. I bought a Oculus Rift for half price last week and have been setting up my games. Finally got bos/bom setup, but haven't had a chance to fly it yet.. Hopefully I'll find time today.. Sent from my Moto Z Play using Tapatalk Quote
Crash Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 I will have to wait until Christmas before I get to use mine I noticed Cmdr Snacko on Elite Dangerous yesterday Quote
Snacko Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 Yes, just a quick test of my controls to make sure I didn't loose them. With VR in ED you have to completly uninstall ED, and get a 'Partner Key' from Frontier. Then you use that key to get a free VR version of ED from Oculus. Quote
DD_Arthur Posted September 23, 2017 Author Posted September 23, 2017 Still the best 'plane in BoX! 1 Quote

1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted October 20, 2017 1. DDz Quorum Posted October 20, 2017 wow... the raindrops on the cockpit glass when stationary is very cool, looking great! (Would like to know how it sounds with the engine off... ) But while flying, I think the streaming stuff over the glass will quickly become annoying ... Not to rain on their parade, but there's realism and there's ... well, you do not want to spend that much on a great graphics card and monitor, to have the beautiful view to the outside messed up like that!

Crash Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 It is looking very positive This sim to me is looking like the way forward, and once coop mode is working and we have some missions we will be able to invite new players into our pack Quote
DD_Arthur Posted October 20, 2017 Author Posted October 20, 2017 FT, I think the generally agreed technique would be to fly above the clouds in such circumstances? 'Ere, Crash. Did you know about this; https://il2sturmovik.com/ Quote
