Old Pilot , New Game (introduction :)
 

`S
Hello,
just wanted to introduce myself, used to play IL2 in warclouds back in the day. Stopped gaming on PCs until I had saved enough money to buy a decent machine. Anyways just getting back into it , flying CloD without complex engine manage at the moment. Im looking to fly in a friendly and reallistic arena.

take care , see you in the Skies

rom

I bet it feels great to be flying again. Woah thats allot of ram :-P You wont regret going for an Nvidea card! - I know Ive got an ATI.

Happy flying.

Its does feel great, accept for the fact i cannot play any multiplayer because I still don't know how to use the new complex Engine Mangement system. I dont remember IL2 being this difficult to take off. Also I really miss my P51.

I cant tell you about the red CEM but for the 109:

Aim for 2350 RPM for strong performance. Except where in level flght you reach around 400 then turn down the pitch gradually towards 09:30 / 09:35

Obviously reduce pitch for dives and increase for climb.

Never hit WEP at the top of a climb near 12:00 pitch.. Engine will die.

Do not exceed 1.3 Ata for too long.

Do not exceed 2500 RPM and NEVER exceed 3000 RPM!

Oil keep it left side of 80 (dont forget to open oil cooler!) and water less than 90...

Top Speed at SL 460/480 kmh

Top Speed at 5km ~ 420 kmh

You are very welcome here buddy
keep in mind that the sim is still WIP

Sorry to be off topic here, I usually play on my pc, have orig IL2, forgotten battles, pacific theater etc....Dont have a PS3 or any other style game console...help an old dude out (59) dont have a clue as to what to get or why....need a game console too for netflix...can anyone give me some info on what works best? ALSO...tell me about birds of prey, and cliffs of dover and what exactly is different than what I already have, money limited and need info before buying...thanks guys.

What is it with ATI that's so bad...

My card is excellent value for money,runs this game on max even with a mediaocre rig, Nvidia are way too much money imo

OP..Congrats welcome aboard

Thanks all for the welcome.
I am thinking about installing 1946 and waiting until CloD becomes more stable and polished.
