Is it possible to light the instruments in the panels like Ctrl+L in IL2?

Some of us have visual issues and the gauges are not readable from what I've seen unless you zoom in on them

Ctrl + L does work as I recall, and looks beautiful. That said the light isn't very bright, in what I assume is a realistic way, but as I say looks great.

I saw Oleg say in an interview that 'Cliffs of Dover' could have about a thousand planes in the air at one time. So I thought, mmm, I wonder what that looks like...

And it actually runs???
Best proof i've seen sofar that CoD does deliver!
What are your specs?
Thanks!

I don't think it runs in regular game mode. He probably slowed it down 8 or 16 times and recorded it. Played it back accelerated and recorded it again. Still very impressive and a sign of what we can do with future hardware.

It runs well enough to make video's with while capturing with FRAPS, but you have to slow the in-game speed down as far as possible (then speed it up again later in editing), so it's not possible to actually 'play' it like that, not in the normal sense anyway.

Using a GTX580 @ standard clocks and an i7 920 @ 3.8GHz.

I've been finding it fascinating just seeing so many planes in the air. I've never seen anything like it. There's more stuff going on than you can look at, and more than you can see when they get spread out beyond your range of vision. They look like swarms of insects sometimes when they're massed in the distance. And when there are several hundred all randomly battling it out in one area it just a big furballing mess, with stuff literally raining down out of the sky. It's funny too though seeing multiple AI get fixated on chasing and shooting down one particular plane. You'd usually only see six or so of them doing it, but in this case there'll be something like fifty all trying to get in on it, a whole screen full of them massed together and hammering away one or two at a time at some hapless target. The fact that you can show so many planes in such detail certainly opens up a whole new range of options for the movie-makers out there. I imagine there are some of them cooking up stuff right now that will just blow us away.

In terms of the maximum amount of planes you can load into a mission, I still don't know what the limit is. I'll probably try to find out, but time is limited and dabbling with this video stuff means not actually flying and having fun with the other aspects of the game, so, I don't know.

Man! Thank you for the videos. Very Nice indeed. Yeah, you suck at gunnery alright. It might take you two whole missions to make ACE!!! I enjoyed these a lot.

Thx Flyby, my single biggest challenge is setting the axis curves on the Hotas, they are to sensitive/linear at the center. Can increase the deadzone but when the axis actuates its to violent making placing the crosshair were you want it nigh impossible.

Using u2nxt cougar but this is the only sim I can't seem to input axis curves effectively.
Can it be done via config file maybe?
