Adjusting reticle in the 110?

[Flashman]

There is a command for it. In the GENERAL tab for controls look for increase and decrease gunsight illumination.

In the german planes the illumination level is gradual (in 5% steps) so to fully light up the sight keep the button down.

Whereas the british planes are on or off. (though I did recently read a BoB pilots account of fighting in a Hurri and he talks about adjusting his sight illumination)

Yeah, I found the keybindings hiding among the bombsight stuff...

Sounds like I simply need to educate myself about the German reticle instead of assuming it would work like the British one. Not so much the illumination as setting the range and wingspan to match my convergence. Did German pilots just eyeball it?

Lol, sorry i completely misread your post (its early... I haven't had coffee yet!) and thought you couldn't find the reticule button..

other than the reticule there are no commands. Also, unless they have fixed it, the RAF gunsight range setting doesnt work correctly AFAIK.

Right, it's bugged but it's a very simple bug with a simple workaround. Double your convergence and enter that into the range setting. So with your convergence at 200, enter 400 into the range, change the wingspan to match your target and you'll get them at convergence.

Okay, I'm off to read about this revi sight whatsit.
