Hi all new guy here!

[WILSDime]

Hi all ive just downloaded BOS and im hopeful my system will run this better than il2 1946 due to it using dx as oppose to open gl. Just b4 I jump straight in to the game is there any advice  you can give me re aircraft setup ie does it use complex engine management , variable pitch prop or anything else I should know about. 

 

Ive played il2 1946 for a few years know so I can say I know the basics but any advice would be welcome .

Cheers Wilson

Welcome. Hope you have a great time.

 

BoS does have complex engine management, but a few small details are automated (though still modelled realistically) and there's no click-pit.

 

If you're used to IL2 1946, you'll feel at home. BoS is more complex and with more realistic modelling of both physics and aircraft systems.

Welcome to the forum and a very promising new Combat Sim.  If you're like me and not an expert on anything.....there are some guys in here who are....and some that think they are.    But..............either way...you will learn a lot perusing this forum.  And this is just between us....Paw.....watch your back.....the Moderators are prowling like roaring lions....

Welcome!  Have a great time just like many of us are having :-)

 

Requiem's tutorials, as per Extreme_One's suggestion are the way to go, and pick his TIR profiles too, etc...

Welcome to one of he best prop sims bar none, strap in, fire the beast up and have the ride of your life... Hmm that sounds like one of those dodgy sites.

Thanks for the advice guys some good info there, ive just had a quick play about in game and found it awesome!!

feels and looks a lot better that 1946. I did seem to stall the aircraft a lot more than usual tho but I guess that will be something I learn as I go. One thing I noticed in normal mode some settings I changed didn't seem to work ie flaps up and down and using the pitch/roll trim? do these only work in expert mode or am I doing something wrong???
