Mmm, if u have IL-2 1946 try launching the installer from a file called "a.exe" on your CD, know that works for some where the install fails.

edit :should be on your DVD if u click my computer, then rightclick the dvd and pick explore.
(here's hoping Ripley didn't beat me again )

i think you need the disc to run the game, period.
I have a slight cali issue at the moment. Windows says it centres ok so does the game, but when flying i have to move the stick off centre to fly straight?

On the single engine aircraft you need to trim the rudder a bit, to counter engine torque.

Welcome to the wonderful world of WW2 prop planes.
What u are experiencing are torque & gyro effects from a high HP engine+large prop bolted to a "light" airframe...add some wind and turbulence and u can be sure your plane isn't moving in the direction your nose is pointed.

U can counter it with continuous stick and rudder inputs but that get's really tiring so the best way to counter it is with trim.
Page 23 of this guide (http://web.comhem.se/~u85627360/inpursuit.pdf) has some basic info about trimming...it's too much to explain here. Many aircraft don't have rudder or aileron trim though so u will have to keep the ball centered manually.



Might aswell post some pics of last weeks WOP bombernight while i'm at it..hope u enjoy them

You'll want the latest patch and Hyper lobby(look at post #66), then you should be good to go.

On a side note, but still IL related, has anyone tried this yet?

There is a demo available and it has the best Flight sim GFX and performance I have seen yet, the terrain is amazing. It is the pc version of the console's "IL2:Birds of Prey", but they are building it up to be more sim like. Very promising and excellent base to start with, cant get over how well it runs.

just one server with 3 pepole on it i tought it was alot of pepole playing this

canot locate the CD-ROM it says

if the cd is scratched too badly, it won't work. And you need hyperlobby for online play. there is usually a couple hundred people playing.

Really that many? I need to check that out soon.

I picked IL-2 up before Christmas on Steam for $5. I've been pretty addicted to it since, already had to get a new joystick/throttle combo so I had better trim controls.
