This is just what happened:

I was playing again this mission where you have to shot down a single He 115 to see if maybe I'm lucky this time.

I shot the bomber, it fell in 90º towards the ocean and then it bounced on the water like a basketball ball and then it just stays there motionlessly forever. And worst of all, as I said, I can't finish the mission because the game doesn't recognize it as a plane shot down. That's the 4th time.

Nowadays I constantly find myself, most of the time as I play games, worrying about design flaws, bugs, glitches and poor concept rather than having fun itself.

I'm getting tremendously disappointed lately that I'm thinking of selling my gaming rig and just buy a simple office desktop.

Don't sell Lopan
If you're not as keen on looks and graphics liks most here, try a real simulator game like Falcon BMS.
I'm sure you'll enjoy your spare time unlike now.

There are rather many e-pilots that bought Dover in the early days only to find themselves sitting there in the pit asking themselves "Why am I flying here?" - good looks but not much of a simulator game.

It's never too late to give up haha.

What funny is that the FM's are probably the moat bugged thing in the game! Lol!
Even worse than the abysmal stock IL2 FM's.
Well...maybe not that bad. Agreed though that the offline part of the game is unplayable with the current comms and Ai issues.

Yes, but I believe he was talking about the FM's "feeling". Just fly around in CloD is much more fun then IL 1946 because of the handling, the weight it suggests.

IL2 4.01 was a good FM.


Other than that I think BoB:Wings of Victory has had superior FMs.

Some believe that a Flight Model is just top speed, climb rate, etc...

Um bando de prego, Nicolo, é assim mesmo!

Hi Lopan,

Good to know that withthe bomber into the sea. I have been shooting bombers over the chanel in MP, I have to check more whether I also get credited for the kill.

Some tips in case they are of help:
"You could make an autoexec which would run at the start of every mission, then the player could set the keys to be "pressed automatically", like disabling mirror, magnetos position, fuel cock etc."
Actually your Joystick coud have such "macros" which you could write.


"When you select the comms, the screen at the top right gets all cluttered with the status messages and comms mixed, I can't read anything."
You could make more "info windows" place them at different areas of the screen and with different font color. This makes thing easier.
Keep Alt pressed and click with the mouse on the window. Right click to see the options and start experimenting. Many posibilities on the way to have a window be shown and the information that should appear in it.
Important: Learn to create a new window and practise using the new window; Leave your original window unchanged until you feel you canmaster the creating windows process well enough to make permanent changes! (many people post in the forum first time "I have lost all my information, how do I bring it back again? )


In the hope that it may be of use.

Happy flying!

~S~
