Need your opinion about IL2 planes

[OverDhill]

Just in it for a game... to have some fun that's all....

By the way is there any MODS worth dropping on top of the HSFX package to improve the graphics or sound even more (and still be online compatible). I am pleasantly surprised at how much great work is being done to support this game and grateful to all those that have contributed their efforts.

Its a good starting point, but it has several incompatibilities though.
Try adding UV3 for sounds, as to other mods they really are subjective.
Here is the be all, end all source for IL2 mods. Have fun.

I'd say start with the IL2 itself - It's very docile on takeoff/landing and nice to do some ground bashing with, and it's a killer if some axis plane is fool enough to get in front of you.
Plus it give's one an idea of what the Eastern front air battles were all about

I'd say hit the Nugget's Guide in my sig .. but based on what I have seen from your posts here you may just need to get acquainted with WWII birds.. so I can second everything said in this post and I would consider just picking a plane you like. You seem to be an experienced simmer to some extent not a total noob to simming... so I'd say got for it.

Bearcat nice nugget thread. I will definitely use it to help setup my HOTAS once I get it. It is also good to know which key binds are essential. Thanks

I downloaded and installed HyperLobby just to get it ready (not that I am) and I don't have a Forgotten Battles selection but I do have a IL-2 Sturmovik 1946 one. Am I missing something? I installed from a IL2 1946 purchased disk which says it has all of them included.

Also you mention the Dive Brakes in the nugget. Don't see them listed and thought maybe that was referring to the Air Brake?
