FE2 - Toggle Landing Gear

[+Coupi]

Hello,

I don’t know if this has ever been seen... with First Eagle 2 !

In order to toggle the landing gear of the Bf 109 (SCW tests)  I've written directly this line in the [ControlSet001] section of the Control.ini file  :

LANDING_GEARS_TOGGLE=G     

(G for example)

This works !!! 

Best regards,

Coupi.

Good find Coupi!

I just checked the default Contols.INI in one of my SF2 WW2 installs, and there are quite a few controls in SF2 which are not in the FE2 file, such as:

FLAPS_DOWN=F
FLAPS_UP=V
AIRBRAKES_TOGGLE=S
WHEELBRAKES_TOGGLE=B
LANDING_GEARS_TOGGLE=G
ARRESTER_HOOK_TOGGLE=H
ENGINE_TOGGLE=CTRL+I
DRAG_CHUTE=CTRL+B
OPEN_BOMBBAY_DOOR=CTRL+O
DROP_TANKS=CTRL+D
JETTISON_STORES=CTRL+J
CHAFF=C
FLARE=X

 

Probably not much need for a drag chute or chaff or flares in FE2, but I wonder if some of the others work? Some 1930's bombers, like the He-70 and of course the He-111, had bomb bays.

Effectively Idem with FLAPS and WHEELBRAKES entries... I think this was already known by our FE2 gurus !

You can use the controls.ini from SF2 in FE2. No problem.

Was going to do that myself later, you saved me the job of seeing if it worked lol

In the Heinkel He.51 download, I included a text file with detailed instructions for this. My instructions were given to me by Ojcar and add - landing gear, wheel brakes, bomb bay doors, flaps, and jettison the fuel tank. They were tested in both FE1 and FE2.
