Tips for BoS Campaign! help pls!

[ACG_Desertor]

Hello everyone! I hope that you all are safe and stay safe during this hard weeks.

 

Im about to begin a new campaign in BoS. The question is, should I use any mod? Is there a mod worth using?
Which ones do you use?

 

Second question, Im finishing a BoM campaign, is there any posibility that I can use the same pilot in the Stalingrad campaign? Im lieutenant with +100 kills and I wouldnt like to start from the bottom again.. hahha

 

thanks guys

 

Thank you all!

Yes, you can play through multiple campaigns for e.g. moscow -> stalingrad -> kuban

 

Do you play with plane markers on or off?
If off i recommend this visual mod to make plane spotting a bit better.

IL-2: Battle of Stalingrad has a mod community that does some very interesting work. This, however, is not something like X-Plane where you need mods to get the solid experience. You can just start playing.

Yes you can. The career system is setup to allow a pilot to progress through time. So a Russian pilot career can start on the Moscow campaigns, go through the Stalingrad campaigns and finish in the autumn of 1943 at the end of the Kuban campaign. A German pilot career right now can go even further as they can follow the same progression and then jump from there to the western front and go from September 1944 through to April 1945.

 

None of my pilots have lived that long... but it's doable

For SP Mods, I would recommend the following:

• Either one of the two:
  • More realistic clouds
  • Sky and clouds mod
• Multicolored tracers
  • There is another one with wobbly tracers and multicolored tracers but I have not personally tried it yet.
• 4K cockpit textures

Nice choice there, but can you use more realistic cloud and sky and cloud mod together.

 

Personally I don't use wobbly treacers.thats not realistic and just shows tracers from gun cameras with vibrations.

I don’t recommend this. They will overwrite files on each other. More Realistic Clouds has all the sky files edited to correlate with each different skydome and light.bmp’s. Also I have almost twice as many cloud maps, skydomes, and lighting. So more than likely you will get a ugly effect and/ or many errors.

If you’re planning on doing realistic engine management, this mod places a sticky note of sorts in each cockpit that shows very handy basic engine parameters.

There is a mod for clouds. A mate use it. But he got massive fps drop when close or in them. But it is beautiful according to him

Really useful mod for new pilots, which I used as well until my girlfriend complained that I removed her cockpit photo by that. Not kidding xD
