[ManofWonder82]

What kind of video capture program are you using? I've got some out of date junk ('01), and I'm looking to upgrade with something newer.

Gears of War OST right?

[skybaby68]

Sure is buddy! Great soundtrack, great game!!! ;-)

[Eddlord89]

Wow! That biplane vs biplane fight was great! Excellent choice of "camera" angles and nice editing as well.

P.S. - Did you use Trackir in this video? I didn't even know it was compatible with old IL 2 sturmovik!

[skybaby68]

Thankyou. Yes I use Track IR 5 with the modded version of IL-2 1946 (UI version 1.2 from AAA) but I understand that Track IR is totally compatible with IL-2 of old but with the mod version, there is 6dof support aswell.

[Eddlord89]

Yeah, I have 1946 + UI 1.2 (and some other stuff) too but I thought IL-2 was too old to support such "high tech" equipment. I might have to buy Track IR some day. It's a pain in the ass to use the keyboard to keep an eye on the enemy in the middle of a hectic dogfight. Too bad I can't afford it. Oh well, some day...

[skybaby68]

Aah mate get Track IR. You'll never look back (or rather you will, just by turning your head slightly lol). I'd be completely lost without it. I have both Track IR 3 & 5. 3, 4 & 5 all work with most flight sims but 5 is def the best & more stable.

[Eddlord89]

Guess I'll have to rob the local liquor store tonight then. :-P

I can only imagine what it would be like to use Track IR... seems awesome. Hopefully I'll have enough money this summer. But it's gonna be a long spring. :-(

[skybaby68]

Best of luck with the liquor store then. ;-)

[Eddlord89]

Oh, by the way, when can I expect to see part 2 of this "battle"?

[skybaby68]

Thanks 4 showing an interest in part2. I fear it's not as good as part1. We used P-40 versus MacchiC.200 & the dogfights weren't quite as good but it will be uploaded this week. As will be our latest Gladiator fight; Gladiator Duel Part 3. It was a good LAN session, lol.

[Eddlord89]

Can't wait! ^^
