Prevyet Comrades!!!
Im new to this forum, however I recently fell in head over heals love with IL-2,
I bought the Direct2Drive version of the game, and have tried downloading numerious Patches (They all failed miserably), so maby your guys pathes will work for me.
Anyway, I started playing with complex engine manament, I have a wonderful Saitek AV8R Joystick, that has two sliders, so, I assaing one for the Throttle and the other for Prop Pitch. Now I know my basic aviation, but I was just wondering if sombody could give me some hints to maximize performance, Especially on the I-16, that annoying plane sure likes to have its engine cut out at the most inconvienent places. Also while I know my Aviation Basics, im having trouble figuring out how to use the Multi Level Superchargers on planes, and the purpose of having this option, ive been messing around with it in the HE-111 and the I-16, and was wondering if there is anything that I need to know as I progress into more Complicated Fighter planes.
Second, I was wondering if anybody could help me with some of my level bombing expirences. Now I know that the way it worked especially for American planes was, that there was an autopilot and the Bombedier made adjusments to the autopilot to place the bombs where they needed to be. Unfourtunatly, for me, the program does not work that way, if anybody could give me any insight into how to effectivly level bomb, (The tuturial was dissapointing at best) I would be very grateful.
Another thing that is irking me is that there appears to be no way to set my two throttle levers to different engines, it would be nice to be able to independantly control my engines using my two throttle levers, especially in the B-25 and HE-111. and if there is a way to assiagn left and right control to the levers the TB-3.
Im having trouble loading some campaigns the two that have failed for me so far are the Leningrad Fighter campain for the Soviets, and the Bomber Campaing for the American Air Force.
I know this is a long list of requests, but I have tried to fix all of these problems, and or research them on my own to no avail.
Thanks,
Polkovnik Kirov
