Hi lads!
I have a question too.
I always take "Torpedo failed to entry water" (or something like it), when I try to use my torpedo. That thing is annoying me, I feel like a stupid pilot? Whats my problem? Why it can't "enter" the water?
I'm flying low, sometimes really low and slow. But it always give me that error :(
It says" torpedo broken while entering in water" when i touch the water, i even try this.

Please help me.

Note: This error came with 4.10 :(

there are also many settings that you can only change via the conf.ini, and not through the setup.

set to opengl with the il2setup with stencil buffer on, then don't use it anymore.

then change the stuff in the conf.ini and save, and then start the game, and viola., res changed. you won't get the widescreen till your flying, GUI will still be in 4:3.

to get perfect mode, in the game then go to hardware settings, select custom, and under landscape select perfect to get perfect mode.

Also as brando says, do NOT change to 64bit (i to have a 64 bit system)

I've just checked M4T and its up, that link i gave you takes you straight to the patch download page if your logged in.

for the record, il2 runs fine on vista with no issues, i'm running vista64.

I'm tearing my hair out now...

Found perfect landscape option, but it isnt perfect at all. Black sky, no detail

Game still running in 1280x etc; and no change. Should I see 1920x1080x32 come up in the selection of resolutions? Well, it still doesn't. The conf files have been edited and both show 1920x1080. The game still luanches in 1280.

The user screens are devoid of any lettering and are just squares, but they co0me back when I drop the landscape to Excellent from perfect.

I've restarted the PC. Lauched the game. No change to res. Still 1280.

I'm beginning to think a complete uninstall followed by a re-install is the only way forward.

- Do NOT install in the the Program files folder.
- try the a.exe if you still have problems

search the forum for "perfect, landscape, black, sky" and you will find threads that might help you.

re the perfect mode stuff, its an ati issue. i'm nvidia so not my expertise. as suggested use the search, its a well known problem and can be fixed.

re the resolution, no you will not see it in any menu, it willl just boot up in that res, once you've changed the conf.ini and started the game. Thats it, no further action is necessary. do not change the res in game, do not use the il2 setup after the conf.ini changes.

[window]
width=1920
height=1200
ColourBits=32
DepthBits=24
StencilBits=8
ChangeScreenRes=1
FullScreen=1
DrawIfNotFocused=0
EnableResize=0
EnableClose=1
SaveAspect=0
Use3Renders=0

make sure ChangeScreenRes=1, in fact just copy all those settings, with your res.

Reggie Mental 01-24-2011 11:17 PM

Ah....

Yours : SaveAspect=0

mine : SaveAspect=1

Will try that now

everything else is the same.

remember, the menu screen will still be in 4:3, but when you spawn in to fly it will be in widescreen.

Reggie Mental 01-24-2011 11:41 PM

nah.. That didn't work. Sod it...

Flanker gave an answer on another thread. I'll wait and see if it works. I've posted asking if it worked.
