Look on the Wiki, I guess... that's where the troubleshooting info is
Yeah, i hit E the engine starts and that's about it.. I cant do anything else apart from fire weapons (The engine is set at like 50% and rudder seems to be set in prop planes as they just spin round.. [could be torque?] Its like having a jet car with no steering wheel...)

I will, thanks..

Oh, I think I get it... you need to either map the throttle to an axis, or unmap it from all axes and then map increase/decrease throttle to the keyboard. There should already be default ones mapped, but if the throttle is mapped to an axis, the axis would override the keys.

You might need to reverse the throttle axis, too. I used the right stick of my sixaxis for throttle, and every time I pushed up, it went to idle speed. Then for a while I had the rudder and throttle on the same axis, but I couldn't figure out why I couldn't maintain altitude without losing control of the plane

Go to "play online" from the main menu and there should be an option to login, or it will ask automatically, login with your account name and pass... I just checked, there's about 9 servers going right now, if you pick one that you don't have the mod for, the mod will dl automatically. Besides TR and TK there's ones from Richthofen's Skies and War over Poland. the "download mods" button should also work as long as you're logged in

However Rabaul is probably the finest of them all, it's just not much fun if there's not a lot of players. Too much flak, too far to fly. I use Tobruk for practice cause there's flakless targets and fast planes

here is what Target Tobruk "war in the desert" scenario looks like when you get it working:

http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xbm...mp4_videogames

I am trying to get my PS Eye to work on my pc to make IL-2 video, so I tested it by recording a video of Targetware from my ps3. If I can fix the damn flicker problem I think it'll work.

This one may play a bit slow though, I didn't compress it and unfortunately You Tube would not accept it since it went over 10 minutes. So I had to use dailymotion... if it plays slow, it might be easier to just rip the video and skip to the combat part

(I just checked and it looks like dailymotion's ads kill the framerate)
