The ME's On IL2

[Flyboysciferas]

Ok, so I want to fly the jets because i think their tottally freakin awesome right?

Well Its not an option on the quick mission... And when Make a unit in full builder mission the spot where it says for the person to fly the plane, wont let you click it.

Help please? I guess i dont know really what im doing. I want to know how I can select it so that I fly that plane on full mission builder.

Do you have Pacific Fighters merged with IL2? This sounds like a case of the Coral Sea map. It's the one map in Quick Mission Builder that won't allow you to select non-naval planes, jets included. Try selecting another map and see what happens.

And when Make a unit in full builder mission the spot where it says for the person to fly the plane, wont let you click it.

I haven't got a clue what you just said there.

 

[Flyboysciferas]

Thanks ill try it out, and what I mean is there is a select box for you to check if you want that plane to be you (player) and it wound not allow it to be clicked.

 

[Flyboysciferas]

Ok, so i tired 5 different maps, and yes they were not "sea maps" Or Coral which is in pacific fighters. There is a number of planes in which I cannot use and I cant Figure out why!

 

[Nonskimmer]

Hmmm, this is new to me.
Are you trying to select a non-flyable plane by any chance? Not evey plane in the game is available to the player I'm afraid. Although all of the jets should be. Hmmm.

 

[Flyboysciferas]

Well, when I go to quick builder missions. I can select a plane to fly... the ME's (and jets) are not on the list no matter what of the 3 maps i choose they are not there... But when I click an allied plane or enemy plane they have all the planes including the Me's I dont get it...

 

[Nonskimmer]

I'm stumped. Short of a reinstall, I couldn't tell you what to try. Anyone else have an idea?

 

[lesofprimus]

Sounds like a patch problem maybe...

 

[Chocks away!]

He must be using the original IL-2 where the Me-262 wasn't flyable...

 

[Flyboysciferas]

how do i fix that? patch?

 

[loomaluftwaffe]

what version of IL-2 are you using?

 

[Flyboysciferas]

there is only one patch out that i dont have so yea i have them all except one..

 

[loomaluftwaffe]

WHAT VERSION ARE YOU USING?
IL-2?
IL-2 Forgotten Battles?
IL-2 FB + AEP?
Pacific Fighters?
FB+AEP+PF?

 

[Flyboysciferas]

Well I have IL-2 but I installed PF first so its not installed togeather. So its just IL-2

 

[Chocks away!]

In that case, the Me-262 is not flyable in the original IL-2. The first game in the series that includes a flyable Me-262 is IL-2 forgotten battles, but if you're interested in flying jets I guess you should get '46' which includes the whole series plus addons and many experimental german and russian jets.

 

[loomaluftwaffe]

1946 also includes the manchuria and Pe-2 add-on
it cost me $40 here, and it cost the same here as the complete edition IL-2]

and the bonus DVD rocks, now i can't wait for BoB (coming here this Feb) and they got airshows and other stuff in it too

 

[Flyboysciferas]

The 46?

 

[loomaluftwaffe]

yup, that one that just came out this month (i think it's coming out in US in January?)

 

[Flyboysciferas]

i got it.... dont ask how.... hint hint wink wink

 

[loomaluftwaffe]

dude, I got it, and i live in a little island which you don't know about
