The model seems pretty good, did you made it?, is it for a sim in particular?.

[farang65]

Thanks for the info about restarting the game a second time to get the cockpit to show
Cirx 

First time ever to see the cockpit

I noticed you get a few attempts with flying it in QMB before it decides to go back to the blue screen.

Thanks again Cirx

I was going ting tong (Thai for crazy) over this simple but difficult install.

By chance I installed Rawners excellent B-29 cockpit straight in to the MODS folder just to see if that worked Bumber

Cheers Kirby

I have noticed that I have problems with this one veering uncontrollably to port on manual take off - but not when I switch to automatic.. has anyone else seen this ??

Regards,

hi, got little trouble with this one and with ranvers B-29 cockpit, the cocpit won't show, here's my logfile, any idea whats wrong? Downloading & installing again won't solve this one

I was having some fun tonight looking for bigger and bigger ways to vulch the AI in the QMB (I know, I'm sick) and finally moved onto the Silver Plate and the Tu-4.

I must say, I was giggling myself into a giddy stupor!! For that first reaction alone I can't thank you enough! You made my night.


However, the more I did it, the more I noticed some issues....

The nukes don't seem to kill other planes. Even at point blank range.

Here's the setup: Mostly "easy mode," externals off, unlimitd ammo, realistic ballistics, invulnerable, and 4 flights of 4 various bombers with no weapons, setup as a low-level airfield attack mission.

I wasn't looking for action, as much as "blow 'em up!" fun.

A single nuke would wipe out the airfield and most parts of the surrounding towns. It was amazing! But dropping it on a flightline of 8 planes waiting for takeoff.... well it just wouldn't kill them.

It blew some wings off, and stuff, but I had to drop about 5 of them back to back in the same spot to wipe out most of the folks on the runway.

One or two planes would just disintegrate in the air (see a flight of Betty bombers, drop one anywhere nearby, then watch with glee/laughter/mirth as they shatter like glass and float down to the earth!).

However, many different planes withstood repeated nukes point blank, both types of kiloton yields from the B-29, the single version on the Tu-4, and the cookie on the Mossie16, all did very little damage to the AI. Wiped out the landscape and any ground objects instantly. But for example, the TB3s on the runway in one mission withstood about 7 of the larger B-29 nukes over and over and over. Even setting them off directly underneath them (hoping for shockwaves or something). He-111Zs were supremely resillient. I could not kill them with the 4k mossie "cookie" no matter how hard I tried. Same for the ships offshore. The cookie wiped out the town a mile away, but I dropped so many directly on top of a parked He-111Z (have screenshot of the smoking crater around the parked plane, with no damage to the plane) that I gave up. I tried many different bombers, and only 1-2 really "fell apart" from the bomb blast the way they should have.

So what's up with the bomb blasts in this game? They just don't work against planes?


P.S. I can't recommend ENOUGH that you all try the mission I described above JUST ONCE in your IL2 simming life. Great fun!

[SAS~GJE52]

Murray, if I were you I would ask the nurse to increase my medication....     

GJE52

[Murray]

I'll definitely ask her about it 


But it still doesn't solve the issue of why the "big bombs" don't do diddley squat against planes after repeated point-blank explosions.

[Roger Smith]

the TU-4 was way heavier than the B-29 due to the changes from US measure system to metric. is this emulated?

[Matchstick101]

hey all no one posted about it but the Tu-4 works in 4.101 
just tested it today

[baretta1]

Hello SAS,

I downloaded this mod (and many others) from this site in hopes of playing offline with the beautiful renderings.  However, for some reason my game/computer (whatever the problem really is ) won't accept aircraft mods it would appear.  I'll post the log file below for someone who understands it   I do know that I always get a 50% or 60% load ctd (both are the same I have heard) whenever I try to load the game with an aircraft mod enabled in the JSGME.  I am running 1946 UP 2.01 4.09m with no other mods enabled but the mod(s) in question. I have tried the Diff.FM mod in hopes that would be the issue, but it was not so....

Any ideas??

I did put the air.ini textline in correctly as is shown above....seems to me it can't find it for some reason or another?

Some of the other mods I have tried include :
F-51 Pulsejet
CY6 L-5A-2
Bell47
F-84G Thunderjet Nuke
He45Cv1.1
KB-29P
Sikorsky_H19D_v1.00

[What ever]

Thank you from this cool mod

(sorry if i had some mistakes in my english)

[csvousden]

The Tu-4 and C.U.P.:  I love this plane and it works well in WAW, but I can't get a cockpit to fly it in JTW--anyone else notice this?
