FMs of planes - offline user needs advice please
#6

Thanks for the replies so far, chaps.

Flying Kane- I agree with you though the point isn't relevant to the problem I am experiencing, This is happening right down at ground level....

Standds- Agree also- maybe I was lax in not explaining enough, but I understand trim and though I used it , this immersion-killer still exists. When i said i extended, ( to get away from the EA long enough to attain maximum speed ), I was also trimming so that the "climb/descend dial" was showing me going slightly descending, yet even then there was nowhere near top speed attainable..
In CFS3, using 1% planes, they have to be flown using trim etc to get the 1% performance.

As for fuel load, I fully agree and I have been looking into that. I fly mainly in QMB, where it seems fuel loading isn't adjustable. If it is, can you please put me right on that?

I have even looked to see if I can find an airfraft folder for the individual aircraft, in the sim directory, but ,unlike other sims, i can't seem to find one. I was hoping to adjust such types of parameter to make my plane faster,( or the opposition slower ), but I can't find any such folder or aeroplane file.
I even have AirEd, and was hoping to use that?

In OFF ( CFS3 derivitive ), the AI are flying with no fuel load- and I have been able to give them a fuel loading by adjusting the aircraft file. This does make a slight difference.
Is there any facility for adjusting the AI planes within the IL2 folders?, anyone.?


Arctic Viper - Yes, it is a brilliant sim and i imagine i was one of the first to buy and fly the original IL2
sim, way back when. Smile It was so far ahead of the others and in fact I think that then it was more like I'm asking about than it is now. I was so keen on it that I sought out oleg at the flight sim show the first time he came over, and i've got his autograph- so i am a fan of IL2 and the subsequent version, of which I have them all.
But, I don't play online and single play limitations, as I have described, do nevertheless seem to exist, and i am merely trying to find out if they can be overcome?

There has been a lot of modding of this sim since i was last flying it, and I think that that is fantastic-
I am way behind the latest mods etc but I hope to get there.
Which is why i was glad to find this website where so much has been achieved.

Cheers
