In case you would like to know, we usually use "weathered" to describe a plane that is worn and chipped -
Plane Preferences - Old, New, Don't Matter - POLL
delta7 replied to DoubleTap's topic in Jim's Place
late war luftwaffe and late war spitfires are what light my fire- but Ill admit I enjoy flying different plane sets while on co-ops as I fly these on warclouds anyway. I dont like unbalanced plane sets as I dont think these work well for co-ops , in a markedly inferior plane you would have to be very careful about choosing when to engage or wether to engage at all and we are all a bit tally -ho for that Oh and I hate planes with carbs as I always conk out my engine :oops: -
For a quick start go here http://www.airwarfare.com/ read the faq and the user manual as it has info on all aspects of the game - then check the guides section for more detailed info a lot of reading but worth while and will save you hours of frustration S

S Trap and welcome to the forums - please e-mail BG at jsmith@highspeedfx.net and he will let you know about team events and times and Im sure you will be welcomed along. A little background, we are a squad that flys mainly co-ops but are venturing into hosting our own dogfight nights , we have around 30 members with a wide range of skills and are willing to assist new members in any way we can to help them become part of the squad. We have regular nights but also informal get togethers through the week so there is usually a time slot to suit Oh we fly 4.05 so we can discuss this later after you have contacted BG S

Ok Iv seen the track and - YOUR GUILTY AS SIN _ COURT MARSHAL HIM no seriously in the track there was nothing near when my wing came off - there seems to be packet loss somewhere Just the vagrencies of on line play I guess
-
Its OK mate - no problems , as I said I have a bad habit of target fixation and with two in already I shouldnt really have made it three chasing poor old BG
-
Its funny to see your pictures, I remember very clearly that I was last in line for the shot (screen 1) then curved inside and had BG in my sights, no other blues in front, was pulling lead nicely when BAM my wing came off I am as guilty as the next for putting the blinkers on when going for the shot and have been trying to stay out of the fight when others are engaging but thought I has boxed BG well and that other blue were higher behind and to the right of me ?!? :shock: Ill just need to order the upgrade Me109s - the ones without the pop off wings

while I know some people who run like you do, pc cases were designed to provide air flow so when cover is off this wont work properly - try looking here for cooling solutions to existing case- http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatalog/Fans.html Of course if what youv got works then fine but might be a bit noisey mate
-
this is fine colin - cant see any problems with it - far better to go pci than have a hub I bought a cheep one from a local pc shop , and just plug it in and away you go

can you get some more of the fw 190 the next time you visit - TY -
crashes are usually down to 3 main reasons- 1) heat- you have already identified that you may need to clean your fans , do this then restart with side panel off and make sure all fans are working - depending on location of pc you may have to install extra case fans to cool it I have an extra 80mm fan blowing air IN at front and a 80mm blowing air OUT at rear 2) memory, download and run memtest here http://www.memtest86.com/ and run for a few hours to test your memory 3) driver conflicts , you already have updated drivers as per Rogers instructions so you should be ok BTW the 66.93 set you had for your card was fine as it was optimised for that generation of card , however you might find the newer ones give you slightly more FPS. I would recommend you try to get service pack 2 again as this will help. try 1) and 2) above and please report back

Well done Glen and all on both sides that was about the quickest 3 hours of my life. There was some lag in second and third mission but nothing that you couldnt expect with such high numbers and AA I hope we can do it again some time - a desert map might be fun - hint hint for anyone with balls and knowhow to do this. ~S~ to all who flew -both Red and Blue and especially Glen for all the work he done.

Problems assigning commands to controllers.....
delta7 replied to retnavycpo's topic in Hardware Hell
Hi - your best bet would be to head over to www.airwarfare.com and check ou tthe faq there , there is also a guide section http://www.airwarfare.com/guides.htm and if you scroll down you will see the tech section with how to set up joysticks. there are many free add-ons - see the same site and also official expansion packs most people fly with il2 forgotten battles+ ace + pacific fighters + PE2 combined there is a link in the guide section above to installing and patching which explains everything in detail http://www.airwarfare.com/guides/patching.htm hope this helps -
F6 goes to external view with padlock nearest enemy - by pressing it you have your own radar to prevent anyone from sneaking up on you- not very realistic and totally kills any chance of using proper tactics
-
Canine convention 1) play fair 2) have fun 3) keep your respect for other side team members- do and say unto others as you would do and say unto yourself 4) no vultching 5) no F6 6)HAVE FUN

If someone is at altitude with Nav lights on, they are fair game. If someone has Nav lights on, and expecting not to get shot, they should also be: 1) Below 1000m 2) Heading toward an airfield 3) Not shooting at anything I also want to state that Nav lights are not a "stop shooting me" ticket in mid-fight. If you have had enough, evade and run or bail. I would support a "no strafing chutes" clause. I would add this to the "nav lights" issue: if you enter a dogfight, you may not use the nav lights to disengage at any time, even if you're winchester or bingo fuel, near your base, above or below 1000m. Once you pick a fight, or agree to defend yourself, there's no turning back. You can't start shooting at someone, and then just say "ok, i want to go home now!" That being said, the gentlemanly rule of not blasting away at a flamer or dead-engine plane is still up to the individual. I hope to be available early enough to join you guys Friday! Totally agree- using nav lights to exit an engagement or to fool someone and then engage them is ungentilmanly conduct - nav lights only signal your on the landing or takeoff pattern and should not be needed any more than 1km from base blue dont need to shoot down flamers as they will probably crash in blue terrirory and so count as captured - red might fel different but blue should bail anyway if badly shot up - they over home ground most of the time anyway I dont like chute shooting but it happens

YOu must be clairvoyant mate I was about to ask the same question about vulching Im Definatly for no vulching or it will turn into a nightmare trying to get wings together externals Im ok with - we should have a gentlemans agreement to only use them for takeoff / landings and to check our own damage - NO F6 super aces cheat tho To stop vulching - no strafing bases and turn nav lights on during take off or landing then rule is no shooting anyone with nav lights on - again we have to be gentlemen about this and remember to turn nav lights off when we are at cruise speed /altitude after taking off. Having said this Iv played on all kinds of servers and vultures usually get their just desserts :twisted:
