1. DDz Quorum Sid Posted September 12, 2018 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted September 12, 2018 I've been playing GBS/BoX single player and multiplayer and thinking that I would like to play it more often with you guys. I believe the consensus of those that have it is that it is fun and that it is possible to go online with eachother relatively easily. This has been the case for a few weeks now as I have hosted some missions and Arthur has kindly provided a server for us to use on a map rotation basis...as far as I am aware no-one had any major issues with connecting to either of us or suffered from issues online whilst flying on our servers. We both run a mods server but you don't need mods to fly with us, just have mods enabled in your game, once that has been enabled most join us easily. The biggest issue I have found with a bunch of us flying together is that the mission selection can be affected due to people having a limited selection of aircraft but I am sure that will resolve itself in time as people adopt the game and aquire modules in the future as it becomes clearer that this is a fun, interesting and great looking way to take off, fly, shoot down, bomb the crap out of things and land again......something we are very used to. I'm not suggesting we replace '46 with GBS/BoX as the Dogz preferred fun platform because we all have our preferences to what we fly and there are dedicated nights for other games available to cater for this. What I am asking is what people feel about Tuesday nights being dedicated to GBS/BoX. What we could have is: Sunday 46 Monday DCS Tuesday GBS/BoX Thursday CloD Watcha think?

1. DDz Quorum Painless Posted September 12, 2018 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted September 12, 2018 Crash suggested that Tuesday would become GBS night when the Bodenplatte module was released and that seemed a popular idea. However if enough chaps want it to happen now, why not ? I am fine with it Sidly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 I would be happy to start Tuesdays as BoX anytime, its for the guys that dont have all the parts/planes yet to say how they feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gypsy Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 I'm in, but I have all modules and all but 3 aircraft as well as pre-ordered Bodenplatte. I agree that those that have none or only the bare minimum need to speak to this change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DD_Arthur Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 How many people turned up for '46 last night? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Not many (thats an understatement. Right Sid?) or is it overstatement? Well one of varp guys turned up and then left as Sid and I were BoXing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DD_Arthur Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Oh. BoX on Tuesdays is fine by me but I agree, people should give an opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 One possibility would be to do dogfight maps with a full set of planes until BoBP drops. This might help people get used to how things work take offs landings shootings etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crash Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 By an overwhelming majority, last night it was decided the in future Great Battles will be fought on a Tuesday night as 1946 attendance is a bit disappointing. 1946 missions will still be flown on Sundays 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beebop-RIP Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Gentlemen, I plan on joining you tomorrow but have never played BoS online. I can get to the Multiplayer page but is there anything I need to know about joining? I have no problms joining direct IP with HSFX and have no router. Or it can wait until I'm on Teamspeak. I'll connect 1/2 hour early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted October 22, 2018 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted October 22, 2018 Just make sure that in game Settings, Game the 'Enable mods' is checked, so ON. Once the Dogfight map is up - Probably crash will do that - it will show up via Multiplayer, Dogfight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beebop-RIP Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Thanks. With all the "new complexity" this version has it is nice to see that this part will be easy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beebop-RIP Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Gentlemen, Sorry I left so abruptly this afternoon. It seems that the server was set up for 'Expert' settings so I had no HUD plus I am so new to the game I use a lot of auto settings for engine management. I couldn't remember the default key settings for the radiator so I kept overheating. I am very familiar with 1046 so more realistic settings like in HSFX are not as difficult to deal with. I need to practice a lot more but am looking forward to flying BoX with you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DD_Arthur Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Don't worry m8. As you can see above, we might fly with expert settings but I for one am still a rank amateur. Have you had a look through this thread? http://dangerdogz.com/forums/topic/12970-box-rough-and-ready-set-up-guide/ As an overall concept IL2 BoX and IL2 1946 are broadly similar; create the most detailed, feature-filled WW2 combat flight simulator whilst keeping it accessible to as wide a user base as possible. In detail however BoX differs from 1946 in almost all aspects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
