Actually, the loosened straps don't correspond to the gunsight view but the "normal" view. The gunsight view corresponds to tightened straps (there is less head shake in that view), that's why we can't look around too much.

Map border is HIDEOUS and must be changed.

I stand corrected

Sea below the plane looks terrible when flying at low level. See the screenshot.

This rendering problem was NOT there in the first couple of patches, but now it's been like this in at least 3 last versions. You can't really play when it looks like this. I've tried changing video settings but it seems to happen no matter which values I use.

WinXP SP3, Q6600, ATI 6950 2GB.
------------------------------------
I managed to get rid of this bug. It seems it was somehow caused by old config files, see more info here:

------------------------------------
It seems it was not just about old config files, as the problem returned after playing the game for a while.
But after installing latest ATI drivers from mid June, I haven't seen this rendering problem anymore. So maybe gfx driver problem more than anything else.

You can click all over the map, but can never select an airfield and therefore an aircraft. So we cannot use Multiplayer in Cliffs of Dover.

its because you must have changed the icon size in windows...mine was %125 and i had the same problem...set it back to %100 and i can click on airfields

S!

Can't confirm this!
Tested yesterday online and it works as described, pp starts at 12:00 o'clock!

Thank you Cheesehawk.Without your tip I would never have figured out why my 14588 maps were not working in 14821.

As much as there is to like about this sim the multiplayer gui programer must have just come back from a 3 day pass.

A view centered on the gunsight for the Bf109 just as IL2FB and Rise of Flight have, is still missing.

Guys, I appreciate your comments but I stand by my point:
I want my view as in IL2FB Shift-F1, with all my head movement and bells and whistles.
Or, as I was told in Rise of Flight, you can move the view freely inside the cockpit and then press a key to define the point you are at, as center! This would be enough.

~S~

I wonder if any of you, guys, has found this problem (or bug?): when flying the Bf-109 (any of them) I can't extend the flaps with the assigned key (V), even though this key works perfectly in other planes.

[csThor]

The flaps in the 109 are operated via a wheel. This means you must hold down the key you assigned to flaps and it will take a considerable time to lower/raise completely.
