I have the same problem. The autopilot does not work for the Mistel combination, it just spins to the ground.

Just noticed that is you do a quick mission and its air start with no target selected, your Fokker Dxxi (either version) will have iron sights (sight tube), yet if you select a target or scramble mission your aircraft will have a reflector sight instead.

From the 4.09 Guide:

Note: Gun sights randomization

Both Goertz tube sight and Revi 3a were used in Finnish Series 3 Fokkers. About 40% of all planes had
Revi. Therefore a virtual pilot in game has a 40% chance to get Revi when default skin is selected. With user skins (BMP) the sight is Goertz by default but can be certain skins can be bind to Revi with Customization.ini file in skin folder.

Thanks for that, I didn't know that but its pretty cool, and the revi is soo much better.

Two annoying bugs that have been here for a pretty long time :

When you start airborne with the YP-80 the engine does not work at all and you can't start it. So all you can do is land somewhere on the ground (if there's ground of course).

On the Slovakia Map if you play a Scramble mission for the axis your own AAA starts shooting at you, not very nice.

Voilà.

Oh, could it be possible to tweak a little bit the bombers' gunners? I mean they're wayyyy too accurate, it's insane. They can put a bullet in your head at 750 meters. And they shred your plane to pieces in 15 seconds (when you need twice the time to down the bombers)... ^^

I have problem... Hmm... I installed Il-2 Sturmovik: 1946 (v4.07m) then I installed 4.08m patch and it worked fine but after the 4.09m patch installation the game woudn't start. I can see the process in task manager but it disappears after few seconds. Can you help me?

PS. Sorry for my bad english...

Only if you choose ACE for the AI gunners. ACE is meant to be insane, just choose Veteran AI for the enemy bomber flights instead.




The following is more an observation than a bug report:

The Dunlop triple brake pressure gauge functions correctly on the Avia B534 but is not enabled on aircraft introduced earlier the J8A. Any chance of getting the gauge functional on older aircraft at some point.

I'm sorry, but I've made and hosted plenty of YP-80 airstart coop missions and I've never once had this problem nor have I heard it mentioned before.

May I respectfully suggest it may be a problem on your end?

I tried again, you're right. It works well. In fact, the problem appears when I lower the engine's power to a certain level. When it's too low, the engine stops and I can't restart it.

I should try in a online game, since the last time I played with the YP-80 on the Internet, I don't remember I faced this issue...
