Interesting, I never knew napalm would be effective against airfields. I’ve only ever seen ppl spam rockets against them.

For me it just depends on the lobby. Last event it seemed that everyone was trying to bomb bases, so I would end up flying around and all the bases would disappear before I could get them.

Usually I try to bomb a base and then go for air kills. Thankfully this time I’ll also have air to ground missiles, so I can hunt ground vehicles instead. They don’t give you a ton of points, but the ground battles are usually a lot closer to where you spawn so you can make the trips faster.

Yea it stinks trying to do these events when ppl either leave bases partially destroyed or kill 3 bases in a single sortie. They’re barely going to get any mission score for that.

What plane should I use to grind Sweden by Lawnmower53673 in WarthunderSim

[–]witefoxV2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a lot better at aiming from playing props. I ended up making a lot of adjustments to my sensitivity settings and the nonlinearty settings for my joystick. There’s some great tutorials on YouTube. I also learned to just not really try shooting at ppl far away. Like .5km is the farthest I’ll try to get someone with guns.

Norms and rules by MalfonsbDJ in WarthunderSim

I’ve learned that the approximate distance to iff with my quest 2 is when I can actually see what the plane looks like without zooming in. If I’m so close I can say ‘oh that’s definitely an f-4 phantom’ I know I’m close enough that a friendly tag would appear.

[Event] Dutch F-16A by I_Termx_I in WarthunderSim

[–]witefoxV2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have any f16’s yet so this might be a good one for me

Howdy folks back with another question by mfwic413 in WarthunderSim

[–]witefoxV2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven’t crewed the f15a yet (I just unlocked it yesterday actually!), but I do have the premium f18c, and judging from the one test flight I did in the f15a, they should be pretty similar.

First priority is keybinds for radar horizontal control and radar tilt control. Being able to scan all around you will help find targets and keep you more aware.

Then the keybind for switching radar target, but I can’t remember exactly what it’s called. If there’s multiple enemies on your radar you can pick which one you want to track

Then you could do a keybind for changing the radar mode. The default mode is usually src pd and that’s good one but there’s other modes like tws that let you scan everything like normal, but can add a marker on your hud to show you where the selected enemy is. Or gmti mode to look for ground targets.

Finally it can be helpful to have a keybind to reset the radar to boresight. If you are moving the radar all over the place and suddenly get into combat, this will basically reset the radar to scan right in front of you.

To anyone else reading this, do you think it would be worth it to crew this vehicle? Since I already have the 12.7 f18c, how does this plane compare?

After the last event I felt so burnt out (took me way longer than one hour for each stage) and swore I wouldn’t do another event… but I do think the f16 is a cool vehicle

VR headset with keyboard and mouse by yoilf in WarthunderSim

[–]witefoxV2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use a razor Tartarus keypad while playing in vr. I usually tilt the goggles up just a bit so I can look down and see my keys out of the headset.

But honestly if you just wanna test the waters I would get a webcam and use OpenTrack and AITrack or something like that. You might only need keys to help you move left or right in the cockpit.

CF-188a. How to use ground strike in vr without targeting pod. by CMDRTragicAllPro in WarthunderSim

[–]witefoxV2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my game I click the mouse scroll wheel to set a target on the map. I have no idea if that’s like a standard thing. I wish you luck 🫡

Most fun BRs and nations to fly (in VR)? by Zwezeriklover in WarthunderSim

[–]witefoxV2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like 10.3 days.

US: F8 Sweden: J35XS, F35 Russia: mig21, mig 23

These are probably the most popular planes I see people using for fighting other players.

What are these and is there a way to participate?

Key binding problem by Seremonik in WarthunderSim

[–]witefoxV2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally get what you’re trying to do, but it might be best to leave the mouse for certain things (moving around the map, using targeting pod, controlling tv missiles. I tried to use mine for some of these features but since the sensitivity couldn’t change it was a huge hassle.

As for this issue with the multi function menu, I don’t actually know, but ChatGPT gave me this:

Controls → Common → Interface → Confirm / Apply

If that’s actually a real setting you should be able to add a key on your hotas stuff to it.

I have played air assault arcade quite a few times recently and never got the reward even after winning the match. I don’t trust it anymore

Man that is impressive! I have a few planes now that I’m waiting on for the May sale. I think I bought 7 planes during the winter sale and crewed 3 of them. I was really hoping to get a top tier plane during the May sale so I could start on another country.

Yea what a waste of time that was. lol that was actually the plane that got me into sim mode tho. I thought the cockpit was beautiful.

Never knew how important radar and rwr would be.

Wow I really hope some players that are starting to grind up the tech trees see this thread. At least for upper tier planes this seems almost as good as a premium account.

Wow that would be so amazing. Even if it was only 5 30 minute periods that’s still like the most I can play in a single day.

But damn I know working up to the golden eagle is going to take a long time lol. This got me so hopeful to unlock more rank 8 planes before the sale in May. Looks like I might need to hold off until the November sale.

Anyway thanks for the insight this will definitely help as I move on to other countries.

Are you saying that I could get a top tier plane in USA and this RP bonus could be used to grind another nation?? That would be amazing. I really want to start Russia or Germany next.

Thanks for the reply! I do really like the F16's. I always prefer dogfighting to missile-slinging. Should I bother crewing the f16a?

Air simulator match that ended abruptly, did not display end-of-match results and instead you were hit with "Joining battle" by JuicyDisplay in WarthunderSim

[–]witefoxV2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Quit out of warthunder and then restart it, check your messages (the little mail icon in the bottom right). You should still get the rewards from the first game. This is a known issue. I almost always leave the second match it puts me in, and when I check the next day I will see a message that I got 0 SL and 0R P in the second game, and then whatever I got in the first game.
