First welcome Bomberflieger to AAs IL2 site. Smile

You can start here and read;
viewtopic.php?f=29&t=29314

Then you can go here, these are the mod packs and their sites and you
Need to have one of these to get to where you want your IL2 to be, so do
Much reading to find out what would be best for you on what you want
For your IL2 game, most all of these mod packs have the stock IL2
Non-flyable's flyable and then some others as well.
viewforum.php?f=110

First read, read, read so you will get to know what is out there.
Hope that helps.

Hi Bomberflieger, it could be many things here is just a few,
1, not being install correctly.
2, corrupt download.

Here is what I would do, go join a squadron and here is why
They can take and 1 on 1 with you and get you going and
Some have a IL2 package of their own for their squad that
Most times is a all in one easy setup,
Here is the squadron list on this site;

Thank you for your interest gentlemen Big Grin
To enlist in a squadron, do you need to say it on the topic or do something else :?:

My game is already "4.08". :wink:

Hi, and welcome to the community Smile


Here is my guide on the official IL-2 1946 patches in order with links:

Bomberflieger, as a suggestion since you want to collect the unflyables, if you get into making your own missions and campaigns then you can potentially see any of the "flyable" planes in your missions as artificial intelligence piloted aircraft. There are many aeroplanes in total. If you include all the modded planes, then you're looking at 450 - 500 aircraft or more.

I wish you well with it and feel free to stop by here and ask for help any time. Smile

Bomberflieger, were you able to get the help you needed? I am also a newbie and am learning the "ropes" of modding the IL2 game. I typically install flyable aircraft but the learning curve is more of patience than what you are trying to mod(ify) in you IL2 game. There is a process though that if followed makes modding IL2 much less frustrating.

Because every try has been a fail... and I can live with that, I need help in something easier :o

How can you shoot, using aircrafts with this idiotic telescope, Like the Ki-27 or The early variants of the Ki-43 :?: :?:

Thank you in advance Smile

Hi Bombenflieger,

Try Ctrl + D (in the command configuration this is the command for Solar Gunsight On/Off) if I have a good remember...

Try this and keep me update ;o)

Hi Bomberflieger,

Deinem Namen nach beurteilt: Ich antworte 'mal einfach in deutsch.

zu 1.) Musst Du Dir Unter Steuerung selber einstellen weil diese Funktion erst 2004 mit "Pacific Fighters" erschienen ist! Ich nehme da: Strg + H.

zu 2.) Die Sirene hört man wenn wenn die Sturzflugbremse zugeschaltet wird. Standard ist wenn ich mich recht erinnere "Q". Wenn nicht, stell es Dir in der Steuerung ein. Diese Bremse funktioniert auch bei den Jets!

zu 3.) Bei einigen Maschinen (z.B. I-16) wird das Fahrwerk per Handkurbel ausgefahren bzw. eingezogen. Auch diese Funktion stellst Du Dir in der Steuerung ein.

Hoffe mal, ich konnte etwas behilflich sein.

Grüße, Gerhard
