Hi all,

Last night (with the help of Fruitbat (and a view other DD - Thanks to you all by the way) helped me install all the patched on IL2....  I now have a fully update copy and am ready to fly :)  

One small problem though.......    I now have no sound!!!   Does anybody have any idea why this has happened and what to do??

  • Wait until you see the whites of his eyes. Fire short bursts of 1 to 2 seconds and only when your sights are definitely 'ON'.
  • Whilst shooting think of nothing else, brace the whole of the body, have both hands on the stick, concentrate on your ring sight.
  • Always keep a sharp lookout. "Keep your finger out!"
  • Height gives You the initiative.
  • Always turn and face the attack.
  • Make your decisions promptly. It is better to act quickly even though your tactics are not the best.
  • Never fly straight and level for more than 30 seconds in the combat area.
  • When diving to attack always leave a proportion of your formation above to act as top guard.
  • INITIATIVE, AGGRESSION, AIR DISCIPLINE, and TEAM WORK are the words that MEAN something in Air Fighting.
  • Go in quickly - Punch hard - Get out!

do you have sound still in your stock version of il2.

if not check your sound settings in windows and check the main volume hasn't been muted.

If you have set up the mute game overlay (so the sound in game mutes while someone in TS is talking) Windows Mixer might have left the volume slider all the way down. I had to stop using this feature because of that.

Start IL-2, ALT-TAB out of the game, right click on the sound icon (little speaker) in the lower right corner of your desktop, click on "open Volume Mixer" and see where the slider is for IL-2.
