Some of these Planes like the B-17 you can only fly with a special program. But if you get FB I'll send one to ya so you can

Basically this is how it works:

In single player, a special program is required to fly AI aircraft, such as the B-17.

Online in a multiplayer game, as long as external views are on, and the host has loaded the AI planes into the mission plane lists, they are flyable. No cockpits, though.

Most AI fighters are worthless without being able to aim, but the bombers, like the B-17 and the Pe-8 (which carries some big-ass bombs ), are just plain fun to fly. The sea-planes are a hoot, too

awesome! thanks fellers! ill tell u when i get it (that will be as soon as i get the $50 rebate for me phone)and btw im prolly getting cfs3 cuz its $30 and il2:fb is $20 so tada! $50and was wondering if any of u guys have it and if its better than il2:fb (other than graphics)

 

[Hot Space]

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE...............don't waste your money on CFS3....

......IT'S CRAP

Hot Space

BTW What's the Spec of your P.C, M8? You need a far system to run FB.

 

[Crazy]

Agreed. Don't waste your moneyt on CFS3 if you're going to buy FB. You'd be better off saving your money for the Aces Expansion pack for FB.

 

[GermansRGeniuses]

well yea considering fb ace and cfs3 are the same price i might as well get fb ace cuz it fas more planes and i like the flight models in il2 and if i played cfs3 id be unused to it but ill probably get it whenever my rebate comes in (or me mum allows) ill see u guys in game (ill be in brazilian p-47d (i am brazilian after all) and arent parnetheses in parnetheses annoying?)

 

[GermansRGeniuses]

and aboot the (lol aboot lol) the ai planes program do u know of any that make me210/410 flyable? cuz i love that plane (up to six wfr gr 21! (rotating barrels inside bomb bay is how it works) thats bomber killing to the max!)

 

[Hot Space]

Yep, I know where you can get a Program that will make ALL A.I Planes flyable, M8 8)

Once you've got FB send me a PM here and I'll send it to ya

Hot Space

 

[Crazy]

Mmmmm, I don't know, as I don't have the program. I usually stick to online flying, and when I'm not doing that, I'm fighting with my single player mode

 

[Hot Space]

It's on The Hells Gazelles Web-Site 8)

Hot Space

 

[Crazy]

I assume that this program doesn't give the planes cockpits? I believe Oleg made the game to uncrackable to allow unauthorised cockpits

I won't be needing it anyway. What I mean by "I'm fighting with my single player mode" is that after about 5 minutes in-game, my comp decides that it would be wonderous fun to reboot spontaneously In fact, from time to time, my comp will do that regardless

 

[GermansRGeniuses]

aboot that program hot space can u use no cockpit mode where theres only a crosshairs and speedometer and other stuff but not an interior?

 

[Crazy]

i don't think so. to get to that mode, one has to first rotate into the VC

 

[GermansRGeniuses]

DAMNIT!

 

[Crazy]

frustrating, ain't it?

that's why the game is patched so much.

1.01, 1.21 RC A, 1.21 RC B, 1.21 Official, 1.22.

Here's a link to 1.22. it makes huge improvements over the out-of-the-box FB

http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/6/ubb.x?a=tpc&s=400102&f=23110283&m=649109261

It's an external view as if your on the Tailplane, but you can control the plane as good as any other, plus it's fun to drop that 5,000lb bomb you get with the Pe-8 8) 8)
