.... and one more if it hasn't been picked up.

Apart from several guys saying their Hurricane fuel cocks no longer Click there is the problem that the Clicking cycle takes you through :-

Off - Main - Reserve - Off, i.e. you can't go back to Main from Reserve.

I think it needs two clickable areas, + and - to go forward and back (like there is for setting the Gyro).

In addition to this: In some cases. Mine and a couple of others I know about, The fuel cock is simply dead. Not clickable and keys bound to fuelcock#1 toggle, next, previous in addition to the axes bind, is not responding in game. I've tried binding to be safe fuelcock#1 to#8 just to be save. No go. So for us the few. The hurricane is not flyable in campaign. Since you need to get fuel running in order to take off :p

edit: weird thing is, all was well 2 days ago. Now its broken.

This should narrow it down hopefully for the devs. but above quote is only relevant now. 2 days ago I was flying with this enabled and it worked fine.

edit: above quote is actually not the culprit to this problem. its the "Limited Fuel" disabled which causes the fuel cock to be dead. Normally I would guess you wouldnt need the fuel cock when you have unlimitless fuel, were it not that the fuel cock on take off is set to OFF by default. so the devs should when all major issues are taken care of make sure that when limitless fuel is disabled then the fuel cock is set to MAIN at all times.

For now set your "limited fuel" to ON in the realism options.

I quote you all about several bugs and I don't want to repeat.

This one I hope is a new entry maybe: I was shot down by a bomber, my BF109 crashed and I died (ctrl/E does not work for me.... no eject!) but listen to this: the rest of the squadron followed me!! They all pointed their noses to the grund and went for a deadly faceplant like a band of dumb kamikazes
I was astonished.

It seems that no emergency power (12 lbs boost) is available for the Merlin. At least pressing the key doesn't provoke any altering in boost.

* The game suddenly has stopped recognizing my Z axis. (X-52 pro)
* All the info boxes that I removed are mysteriously back.
* All my controls have reverted back to default, and I can no longer seem to save my control settings.

Update:

I can save my settings again, but the Z axis is still not being recognized.

None of the Quick Mission scenarios load for me. The bar proceeds to 100 %, then the game locks up. Only way around this is to kill it via task manager.

Sometimes clicking on menu options causes the game to completely lock up, necessitating a reboot. This is erratic, and I´ve not been able to reproduce this with the same options twice.

The training scenarios all load, but performance is abysmal. Sometimes the game crashes midflight, only to be shut down via task manager. Didn´t try any of the SP missions yet because performance is too low.

Nowhere near the league of IL2 right now. Uninstalling this and reinstalling 1946. Will continue to pay attention to these forums though to see what fixes are being supplied.

Edit: none of the missions load, and when constructing a mission in FMB, they don´t load either.

System specs:

Intel Core 2 Duo E8400
Nvidia GTX260
3 gigs of ram
Windows XP SP3 32bit

I experience the same but the manual says the full throttle travel takes it to 110% which = WEP. Does your full throttle take the boost gauge to +12?

btw I just read that you can set the position on your Throttle travel that represents 100% boost by using the "100%" slider in the Axis control for Throttle. I guess I'll move mine to about 90% travel to ensure I get 110% at full travel. Is yours set fully to the right? Is that then only delivering 100% at full throttle and preventing 110%/WEP? Just guessing as I'm not at the CoD PC atm.
