4.09 - Support & Bug Reporting

Old bugs still present

Mig3 série cockpit (all):

Landing gear light indicator are green when gear up, red when gear down. Should be the contrary, as in all other aircraft.

Yak15 cockpit:

compass is reversed. It works ok only at heading N and S, it reads W when real heading is E, 030 when real is 300, and so on.

I know one can only see it with 6DOF, since otherwise it's hidden by the gunsight, but i like to play with no text on my screen, not even speedbar heading indication.


Another humble request: would it be possible to have subtitles in the lower part of screen, instead of the upper part ? I know most of the time i scan high to look for ennemies, and there subtitles distract me much.

I still need them to know what my finnish, romanian or russian flymates are saying though. In fact EAW worked well for subtitles, with one black line background in the lowest part of screen and white text on it. Do you think DT could give us an option to have this kind of display ?


Thank you very much for what you're all doing at DT, IL2's getting better and better !

I have just found out that on some aircraft, that I rarely use, I-16 (all versions - old and new) and F4F-3/4 the landing gear is no longer working after the 409m was installed. Everything else works fine.
Does anyone experience the same problem? There may be more planes like that.

In the types you mentioned you need to assign keys to manually raise/lower gear since in them you had to operate a crank to lower/raise a gear.

Thanks, it's just my inexperience. Works Ok.
For small convenience, it would be nice if gear up/down keys had self repeat feature, so one can get continuous action.

You can set up manual gear raise/lower in your RCU file so you dont have to "tap" the keys.

They (manual gear keys) are not continues on purpose: to be tiring.

Something that is wrong since very long time:

Smoke on engine-startup with P-51B and C comes only out of the left smoke-stacks. The right ones seem to be "dead" (btw: P-51D works correct).

[kumpel]

Pardon my ignorance, but how does one handle this RCU task?

Need some help? Ver. 4.09

I have just updated to a later driver for my ATI HD4870X2 Graphic card. Everything seemed very good, then I noticed all the 'Furniture Tree lines' (Object 165) missing. The position indicator is showing on the map for the trees, then zooming in on the position -no trees?

Do I have to alter the graphic card settings to get them to show? I apologise if this bug has been reported before.

Sorted out the problem myself -

In the config.ini file I changed 'LandShading=3 to LandShading=2' and the trees mysteriously returned?
