Re: ok, getting used to settings on realistic.......

lol, just keep practicing mate, you'll get there :) Make sure you have your flaps (and gear) down and plenty of space on your approach. I usually lose a load of altitude when I spot the base and I'm getting into position and allow as much space as possible to get myself lined up at at the right spee...

Re: ok, getting used to settings on realistic.......

Take a lot of getting used to. I started very recently by having nearly everything on realistic and just switching a couple of bits on - i.e. map icons / route - so I could worry about my flyin' and dyin' rather than just getting lost. You can also try and an easier difficulty level and practice nav...

Re: Bomb bay doors

I dropped my first Fat Boy yesterday - since I don't know how to use the sights it was more of a case of open the doors and drop from 3000ft.

Predictably, I blew myself up along with 50+ ground targets....

Re: Hyperlobby connection

You need to open HL by right clicking and running as an administrator (Vista that is). Once you have pointed it to the correct location while running as an administrator it doesn't matter how you switch, HL will run whichever version you have switched to. You do have to restart HL after switching ve...

Re: Hello

Hi John Welcome to the forums :) If you are looking for a friendly bunch then you have come to the right place. I too have only just got into IL2 1946 after years out of a flight sim of any kind and they have taken me under their wing and taught me all sorts of tricks. Mostly how to bail out... If y...

Re: Bomb bay doors

There is no default key assigned to power 10% since 1 = power 0% and 2=20%.

You need to assign a key (I assigned Q) and that should solve all the problems. I'm on AAA UI 1.1 as well :)

Hope that helps!

Re: Addressing HyperLobby issue

If you have Vista, remember to open Hyperlobby with a right click and "run s administrator". Then if you change the directory and save it, it will actually save and work correctly. You can also switch versions with the version switcher in AAA 1.1 before you launcher Hyperlobby which will t...

Re: Hi!

Definately worth it, if only to listen to the banter and end up getting shot down because I was laughing to much.... :lol:

I haven't played enough of either version to figure out the differences since I only played a little before trying to patch it :)

Re: Hi!

Can I just say a huge "Thank you" to Genosse for sorting me out and getting me airborne.

Great fun flying (and dyin') with you last night and I'm looking forwards to lots more - flying that is.

Cheers

Working on the Unified Installer now that I've finally been able to register on AAA - net going down and a few issues with AoHell emails. Hopefully that works.
