What do I need?

DanLewis · #1 08-29-2009, 09:21 PM

Hi,

I used to play the original Il2 Sturmovik game but haven't played in a long, long time. I'm now looking to get back into things and am more than a little confused about the various add-ons, standalones and patches available. So I have two simple questions - what should I buy and what should I download?

Thanks,

Dan

Hi,

I've just installed the game and am having a great time reacquainting myself. The Sparrowhawk doesn't seem to be in it but there are a few Italian fighters there - Macchis and Fiats.

One question though, the Macchi gunsight seems off-center - does anyone know if that's by design or if I need to map a key to center it?

Cheers,

Dan

Shift + F1

This centres the Bf109 sights too.

You can use Shift F1 in many cockpits as it shifts the pilots seat/view forwards, as opposed to zoom view forwards

Have fun
