FE2 - Toggle Landing Gear

Recommended Posts

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 !!! :pilotfly:

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.

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.
