Yeah, this is a sequel to Sons of Anarchy. Actually a pretty good show, but I got a bit tired of Charlie Hunman... Katie Sagal was Great though!

Does anyone want my promo codes? I bought both FC and TC before I was able to find the promo codes (they are on the ROF profile... NOT the BOS profile). If more than one person is interested I will roll the dice to see who gets them.

The greatest fear... but all these pilots did the right thing... No.1 - AVIATE! (Fly the damn plane!), No.2 - navigate (to a suitable landing spot), No.3 -Communicate (Declare emergency). The last pilot also did the right thing... attempt a restart all the way down (memorize the emergency check-list... you probably won't have time to look at the POH... but if you do, by all means follow the procedures). I've only had one scare and switching tanks and turning the boost pump on per the POH Emer checklist (I did have it memorized) brought the engine back online. Post flight found the left tank finger strainer screen blocked by debris (red rag bits).

Lee says he has a swivel office chair and swivels the whole thing to check 6. I'm about to take the dive and get VR.

Now, this is one awesome plane! PT6A-28 with 680HP from the reduction gearbox. Full reverse (there's a video of him backing the plane up about 30 meters... and he has a back-up light!) for super short fields, and those super squishy trailing link main gears on the Wilga with those Tundra tires... Drooling. I promise I'll never ask for anything else Santa.

SPONGE BOB SQUARE PANTS!

Continuing the theme: It's all good now.

A version of this was playing in the supermarket in Muzak form... I like this version better: Sparked memories from long ago...a link in a story:

Trouble: Feature update to Windows 10, version 1803
Vonrd replied to -Hawkeye-'s topic in Technical Support
Good Lord! So sorry Luft. That has got to be maddening. If I was savvy enough to dump Mal-o-Soft for Linux I would seriously consider it. (Would our games work on it I wonder?). -
I just tried setting "Home" to center TIR in my TIR settings (I normally have it mapped to my pinkie switch on joystick) and it worked fine for me. I do have a Saitek X55 but I don't think that would have anything to do with keyboard commands. Also, my pinkie switch is set to center in the TIR main screen settings. Is that where you're setting it up? EDIT:... never mind. I just reread your OP. Puzzling problem.

Just an FYI... ROF skins work in FC. Just copy them over from your ROF skin file to the IL2BOS skin file. They are darker though due to the darken overlay used in ROF not required in BOS. They can be lightened up in PS or GIMP then resaved. I'll check on it later.
-
Not sure what the unify log-in is that you're referring to. Is that a Steam thing? I don't have it from Steam. I was just testing it on Quick Mission.
-
It should as it's basically BOS and BOS support's VR.
-
Got them both and they're... "okay". Tanks definitely need more development (the Tiger is fun with it's massive armor... nearly indestructible and the slow speed of turret traverse - historically correct - makes it a challenge to hit moving targets but when the 88 hits... ). The lack of response curves in FC is disappointing... maybe they will import in the future... but I doubt it. The DR1 seems a bit tamer but I just did one flight.

That's a quality kit! A bit pricey though: https://www.artesanialatina.net/en/heritage-collection/57262-wooden-model-fokker-dr-i-red-baron-airplane.html Equates to about $300 US

Are you not flying BOS at all?

Original link edited. Can someone let me know if it works?

Looks like the link is bad. I'll check it when I get home tonight.

I've compiled a zip file of the complete library of JG1 skins (mine and Hess'... I didn't include Baron's due to the swastika thing... I wouldn't want to alter his skins without permission) and Wing Walkers. I didn't include WW Russian skins. Be aware that some of Hess' skins are 4K and should have the 4K Bumpmap installed to fully appreciate them though you will still see them without it. (The bumpmaps are in his download link). This is a very large file... 9 Gig. I think we need to think about paring it down some. Maybe eliminate those pilots not actively flying. I have a back-up of all files if we ever need to put them back in. Additionally, I have only used 2K skins (I resized the 4K templates to 2K). The 4Ks are awesome in screenshots and really close-up in videos but in everyday use, you won't notice any difference. I suggest we only use 2K format. I'm not sure if there is going to be a server issue with all these skins... Kleigmann? Wing Walkers? That being said, here's the link to the zip: https://www.dropbox.com/s/tbuvr1dh2ec5mqg/skins.zip?dl=0 Once again unzip to C:\Program Files (x86)\1C Game Studios\IL-2 Sturmovik Battle of Stalingrad\data\graphics (or wherever you have the game installed) and let it overwright if it asks. Alternatively, just unzip into a temp folder and copy them over. EDIT: As of 11:00 PM Pacific time it's showing 3 hours to go for it to be available from my Dropbox.

I'm pleased to announce that I've completed all Axis Powers skins for II./JG1, Stab and Staffels 4 and 6. I included the MC 202 with German markings / camo... (kinda / sorta historic ) since they're an option on many servers (and are actually pretty capable). Here's a link to a zip for my skins. Just unzip to C:\Program Files (x86)\1C Game Studios\IL-2 Sturmovik Battle of Stalingrad\data\graphics (or wherever you have the game installed) and let it overwright if it asks. All my skins begin with A_ so they should be on the top of the list. It will not overwright any existing skins that I'm aware of except, of course, any of mine that have been previously installed. Do let it overwright those as I've done a few tweaks on previous skins. Alternatively, just unzip into a temp folder and copy them over. Here's the link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/d8bmmu4umpoh06f/skins.zip?dl=0 Everyone who is actively flying BOx on line should install these, Hess's skins and Wing Walkers skins.

Hope springs eternal. It does look really good.
