Getting a TrackIR 5 is the thing that lead me to finding out about the Strike Fighters series in the first place. I had not touched a non Sci-Fi flight sim for years before getting my TrackIR in 2009. I consider it a must have for flight simming.

I did not want to clog up @GKABS Ukraine Airlines crashed in Iran thread with this question so I started a new thread. With the Ukraine International Airlines Flight PS752 incident in Iran on January 8th, 2020 and looking back at past events with the Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 shoot down over Ukraine on July 17th, 2014, and the USS Vincennes's (CG-49) shoot down of Iran Air Flight 655 on July 3rd,1988 it got me thinking. What kind of safety procedures do nations with actively deployed SAM defenses have in place in order to prevent accidents like these from happening? I am thinking both about how it was done in the past when the US, UK, and other NATO nations had Bomarc, Nike, Bloodhound, and HAWK batteries as well as their Warsaw Pact counterparts SA-1, SA-2, SA-3, SA-5, etc. during the Cold War as well as how nations with modern deployed SAM systems like Israel's present missile defense systems, Russia, South Korea, etc. do it today.

@Stratos Thanks!

I think I installed the Daidalos Team patch back in 2012 but it has been years since I touched it IL-2 1946. I would appreciate some advice as to patching, updates, and mods.

Another related video.

Head tracking angles. Or rather the lack of them.

What you want to adjust is in the cockpit.ini files for the aircraft. Example from the SE5A_COCKPIT.INI file. [CockpitSeat001] ModelName=SE-5A_cockpit.LOD HideExternalNodeName=Cockpit OpenCockpit=TRUE ExternalClipDistMin=0.04 Position=0.0,-1.36,0.621 Offset=0.0,0.00,0.00 ViewAngles=0.0,5.0,0.0 MaxYaw=165 <---------------- MinYaw=-165 <---------------- MaxPitch=90 <---------------- MinPitchFront=-70 <---------------- MinPitchRear=-50.3<---------------- MinMovementX=-0.16 MaxMovementX=0.16 MinMovementZ=-0.08 MaxMovementZ=0.08 LightRange=1.5 LightInnerConeAngle=43 LightOuterConeAngle=60 LightAngles=0.0,-35.0,0.0 DiffuseLightFactor=0.5 NightLightOn=0.25 NightLightColor=0.5,0.2,0.3 Gunsight=GunsightFront- 1 reply

I just got back from seeing Midway and it was better than I thought it was going to be. I did feel like it was a bit too much the story of Dick Best and VB-6 and not enough the story of the Battle of Midway. I think that the overall story in the 1976 version was better in that respect.

FYI, I received the motherboard back from ASRock after having sending it to them RMA. I have the system reassembled and the system ran the BIOS and booted up to Windows. However Windows does not seem to be recognizing my USB connections (keyboard, mouse, and internet adapter), although the keyboard and mouse do work in BIOS so the physical connections are not an issue. I have managed to get an old keyboard with a PS/2 connection to work in windows. An advice on getting my mouse and internet adapter recognized? Issue resolved.
