Introductions please

I was a moderator, I don't need to read the rules. Cartix gave me complete control of stuff. I also know Smoke Jaguar.

I wonder if cartrix still works for UBI?

By the way your posts will be deleted and you will be banned soon.

It's not you though, it's just the system man.

Hmmm......another introduction, from sunny and fry-an-egg-on-the-hood-of-your-car-hot Florida.

I 've started with Microprose's Gunship as well, after that lot's of Microprose stuff, last one I enjoyed most was European Air War, no clue how to make my copy run in win7 64bit.
After EAW there was for a very long time nothing until I finally (last year actually) discovered IL2 1946, I just had to get back to flying again and boy is that an awesome sim.
Then bought RoF, since I always missed the good old days of Red Baron as well, very nice game, but honestly I do enjoy the way of flying in CoD more, even though the game still needs a lot, I just like the way the planes handle (fighters) plus the battle of britain always held a certain appeal to me.

The Spitfire is imho the most beautiful fighter ever, though flying wise I like sitting in an Me 109 more.

Nice to meet you all

+1 on that here as well. Brilliant work.
El screams like a little girl if you use the wrong markings too.

Hi guys! I'm another old simmer in my fifties who used to play the whole Falcon series. They were great and got me into simulators (you learned to live with the bugs).

I've been playing IL-2 since the Forgotten Battles and enjoyed that series even more, because it replayed our history. Moreover, reading the memoirs of aces from all sides and all theaters of the WW2 (Emelianenko, Sakai, Boyington, Clostermann, Stanford-Tuck, Johnson, Wellum, Luukkanen, Wind, Rall and Lipfert to name a few) and then playing those aerial combats in the sim was simply fascinating.

I'm now trying to learn the CEM whenever I do have time to play the sim. The fighters are easy, but fighting is difficult with temperature effects on. The bombers are a nightmare! Although I've followed the development of the CoD in these forums for years, I haven't contributed much (sorry). I've found the tips in the various threads quite useful. Thank you all, keep them coming!

In my rig the CoD runs very smooth with practically everything maxed (grass off). No stutters to speak of. I've never experienced any CTDs nor blue screens either.

Ubi flew me out to Red Storm Studios to preview a game. I'm a bigger deal
