Hey, thanks for the link!, I thought it was gone. The old page should redirect to the new address.
As for 1946, I've already explained why I didn't get it, in an earlier post, in this thread.
I can hear the sounds when I switch the sample rate to 44100 (not all), anything less and the sound is lacking. I still don't hear flak shells fly through the air like in the original. The Flak sound is differnet from the one in IL-2. Also, I still don't hear rockets being fired, but I hear things like the brakes and flaps.
In external view I can hear bullets and shells being fired from other planes including my own, but half-tracks firing at me I don't hear (wierd).
Is it normal to be able hear machine guns being fired over the radio from other friendly planes?, (this is new).
