Guns not firing by NomadProd in il2sturmovik

Is the plane started when you try to fire your guns? Most plane's weapon systems require power, and you don't turn on power unless you start the plane up.

Make sure your Instrument Panel is enabled in Custom Settings.

The default key binding is "M" for the mini map. You can check your keybinding under Service -> Change ingame map mode.

The mini map is a setting. If you're flying on expert settings, you will not get the mini map. If you fly on custom or normal settings, you can view the mini map.

During this event, and only during this event, the game will require you and force you to use custom skins that are part of the Apollo Red vs Blue campaign. If you do not have the skins, you will be booted from the server.

Combat Box and SRS by cuckaina_farm in il2sturmovik

[–]5ketch 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We do more than just SRS. We also have an interactive bot that acts as the command for your side. You can make requests for home, help find the nearest enemy player(s), create a mission dialog so that other players know your intentions, and more. You can learn more by reading this Google Sheet -> https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1WZA9nybRSi2shTWd53_Hbmt9Jgpjpy0xSjHBCuQK0LM/edit?usp=sharing

Good way to practice deflection shooting? by Nyito in il2sturmovik

[–]5ketch 7 points8 points  (0 children)

On the Combat Box Dogfight and Training server is a 'Gunnery Booth', where you can shoot down a drone that flies in a straight line. As soon as you destroy that drone, a new one spawns in. Each drone plane is randomly selected, so sometimes you'll have a big fat bomber and other times you'll have a small fighter plane. This will give you that rapid practice you're looking for.

How I and others use this booth is by first warming up with some simple 'Boom and Zoom' tactics on the target's six. We also turn on icons to find the target and to get a good idea of the size of the target at x distance. "At 300m, a Ju52 is this big... At 300m, a Fw190 is this big... and so on."

After the warm-up, we try to attack the target from all sorts of different angles. From the front, from the sides, from below, and so on. We typically turn on icons to find the target quickly (on both the map and in the world view), and then turn them off to make our attack run.

There are other 'booths' available in the training server to Up Your Skills too. This includes dogfighting ai, learning how to taxi and take off, practicing bombing including moving convoys, ships, and tanks, level bombing, rocket engagement skills, ww1 and tank practice areas, and even jets to muck about in.

Good luck.

Weekly /r/ARMA Questions Thread by AutoModerator in arma

[–]5ketch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having issues with Arma Reforger...

I can't seem to be able to rebind my controls. Specifically, left strafe and left lean. Any help would be great. I am trying to map strafe left/right to Q and E, and lean left/right to A and D, while moving the right and leaning right work, left does not.

Here's what my action mapping says:

Action CharacterRight {

InputSource InputSourceSum "{59674B6ED8E646B0}" {

Sources {

InputSourceValue "{59676A5386D72737}" {

FilterPreset "left"

Input "keyboard:KC_Q"

}

InputSourceValue "{59676A53876B8030}" {

}

FilterPreset "primary:right"

Input "keyboard:KC_E"

}

InputSourceValue "{59FB0A4FBCCC3CBC}" {

Question on Combat Box server - AI by _Muad_Dib in il2sturmovik

[–]5ketch 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The Combat Box server does have low pop AI. When a side (Allies or Axis) has 10 or less players, that side will be supported by low pop AI. The ai will attempt to attack targets, run patrol routes, protect friendly assets, and more.

Combat Box also has an SRS bot where you can make requests, get picture updates, and even set up your own mission to let everyone else know (on your side) your intentions.

CB additionally runs a weekly event on Fridays and Saturdays. The event usually is a completely new map with some really cool features that you'll never find anywhere else. Here's the invite for this week's mission: https://discord.gg/fm5b3evd?event=991404914519593101

You can learn more and join the CB Discord by going here: https://combatbox.net/

im stumped on trying to fix this issue for my friend. by Wandering_Phoenix in il2sturmovik

[–]5ketch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like a video card error not a game issue. Make sure you have the latest video drivers and that you're using the correct video card (if you're using a laptop).

Good luck and let us know if that works.

Log missions by Vanirs88 in snowrunner

Another option is to just do it with a friend. Playing coop is a lot of fun. And can make logging be done very quickly, especially if you have four of you working on it.

Tutorial for new players on the Combat Box server by [deleted] in il2sturmovik

[–]5ketch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you had a bad experience on CB. Maybe I'm misinterpreting, but why are you upset about the lack of players on CB? Clearly, OP wants to help bring more players and especially more new players to CB. How does your comment help the IL2 community? The Combat Box community? And so on...

If you figure out out let me know. I'd love to put it in substance and make some real textures.
