that's just só silly, it's amazing!

Tested it? Yes, I have set both zoom and radiator on my stock installation set to a linear sensitivity using IL2-Sticks. It works, as the in-game sensitivity screen shows the same sensitivities. The only thing that could be confusing when using IL2-Sticks, is that currently you can create profiles of settings in both IL2-Sticks ánd in the Game itself. Not mixing those up is the greatest challenge me thinks. IL2-Sticks will only look at and work with the settings that are the current profile in conf.ini. It will not recognize nor use the profiles saved from within the game. Haven't tested/tried JoyControl, but I suppose it works in the same way. Too bad it does not show the newly found axis'. (I created IL2-Sticks in 2006 or so, at the outcome of the 4.0 patch. Some russian guy saw it, and kinda used the idea (and maybe some of the programming via reverse-engineering - I dunno) to create IL2 JoyControl. Thus JoyControl is tecnically quite similar, its main addition is that it shows the position of your controllers axis when you move them.)

But, is it free?

Haven't looked at it in JoyControl... It probably finds the setting, but does not have a proper 'translation' for the name used in the settings.ini file. And thus leaves it blank. Yes, that's an issue, as you will not be able to tell which is which. IL2-Sticks does not make that 'mistake', it will list them. I tested it, have added 'zoom' and 'radiator' sliders, and it recognizes and shows them as such. (It does not have a proper translation for it either, but because of that, it decides to use the term it finds in the ini file. Clever programming.) Hooray for IL2-Sticks!

maybe you can upload it into the vault?

Happy Birthday, BD!

Will be there, and will host should the need to it arise...

Thanks for that Arthur! In the meantime I've discovered my recent Tempest FB II mission on the Western Front map has an issue with the RC2 as well... the airstarting of the player's plane occurs with a stopped engine. One can start it, but the log file shows tons of errors ('exceptions') after that, and after a few minutes the mission and entire game crash....

This could be a solution, found it somewhere on some forum... - Right mouse click the C:\Games folder, and select 'properties' - click 'security' tab - click 'advanced' - click 'change permissions' - click 'add' - enter 'Everyone' in the 'enter the object name to select' dialog box - click 'check names' - click OK - click 'full control' in the 'allow' column - click OK - click the box (turn on) 'replace all child object permissions with inheritable permissions from this object' - click OK - confirm any 'are you sure' type messages that pop up along the way (Note: Make sure you do this on the C:\Games folder, and not any other folder.)

Oh, so they get set to 'Read only' immediately when you change them? Interesting, will try and look for a different work around, as this one appears to be not working....

Those files are not really a problem there Jim. Those are some hidden files, you do not really need them to be reset... Check it, you should be able to change your mission files...

Have read up about this on the Internet. Weird mess they made of it. Attached is a command procedure I wrote for you, it will reset the ReadOnly attribute for all files and folders in your c:\games folder. You can run it whenever the problem re-occurs. Should it occur each and every time that you start your computer, then put the file in the Startup folder ... so it will run each and every time your computer starts. resetRO.cmd

Dunno how I do it or why it does happen to me again, but the very first mission I load to check the running of the RC2 gets messed up pretty badly. The mission is 'Balaton Zerstoerer', the eight 109's that are supposed to be in are all missing, and the 110's who should be ready for take off float at 10m to 200m, as speed 0, and then crash. Can't exit the mission, as the Quit mission button clicks, but does not quit the mission. Looking at the log.lst file, something's wrong while it tries to load the Bf-109G-6Early(hu) stuff.... Can anyone please try and play attached mission, just in Single mission? TIA! (Put both files that are attached in your Mission/Single/DE/Bf-110G-2 folder, then 'play' the single mission.) Edit: Think this is related to the Hungarian Regiments/Squadrons. As soon as I select one of those (like 102 Vadaszosztay or the ones below that) it goes haywire... Oh dear oh dear, how I hate this mess!!! Balaton_Zerstorer.mis Balaton_Zerstorer_ru.properties

Just for the record: Cause was a lot of files (like the mission files) had their Read-Only file attribute set. The fix was resetting that attribute for all files and folders in the game folder.

Oops... well... they do not appear when you load the mission in Multiplay you mean? That's really strange... how do they appear when you load that mission in the full mission builder, after you've changed it with QMT? Is QMT looking at the very same folder you are loading the mission in IL2 from?

Me thinks the latest models are not in your QMT... yet ... you did get an update to it though, but was it an update specifically for UP30 ? Edit: Tempest FB MK II is in my version of QMT... The QMT_Aircraft.txt is attached here, download it and put it in the folder where QMT is installed QMT_Aircraft.txt

UP3 uses files named il2corSSE3.dll and/or il2corSSE4.dll, whereas 4.10.1m uses IL2Core.dll and/or ILCoreP4.dll. In other words, they use different modules for the graphics...

The troubles I ran into with that Western Front / Tempest II mission are all fixed by a fresh install, and mainly a fresh conf.ini... something must've been wrong in the old one...

Welcome here! Someone that can really 'add' you to the group will be along here in a while... (Hm, maybe I could even do that, but wouldn't know how...or what to do...Oh well..) (A sheepfarm, oh dear... wonder what comments will follow... ) Anyways, as I said, Welcome!

Very nice pictures Swep, you apparently not only look like a professional photographer... Maybe try it out at Duxford?
