Pooch Senior Member Registered: 04/11/02 Posts: 3602 Loc: Keller, TX	Wow, talk about confusing. And I've spent a good part of my evening trying to get my Saitek X45 set up, but to no avail. I still have no control over the airplanes. Can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Don't have much patience for this sort of thing...well, I don't have much patience, period. About to give up. Hell, It's not like I don't already have enough flight sims. _________________________ "From our orbital vantage point, we observe an earth without borders, full of peace, beauty and magnificence, and we pray that humanity as a whole can imagine a borderless world as we see it, and strive to live as one in peace."

It could be done better no doubt (they even could implement similar one to the original Il 2 Sturmovik). Did you checked if there is a profile for your stick in the controll options? If there is try using it - it saved me a lot of trouble configuring my TM Flight Hotas X.

Cliffs of Dover has without a doubt the worst interface. Just dreadful.

Cliffs of Dover has without a doubt the worst interface. Just dreadful. Glo Agreed here. I don't mind the interface. Sure as hell is better than CloD. I really like the hanger it just looks cool viewing all the models of the planes. My only complaint right now is when you mouse over something the info boxes that come up are HUGE. I'd like them a little smaller. _________________________ Intel i5 2500k cpu // Asus P8P67 mobo // 8GB G.Skill RAM // ATi 7950 3GB // Corsair 650w psu // 3 x 27" monitor // Windows 7 64 bit

Pooch Senior Member Registered: 04/11/02 Posts: 3602 Loc: Keller, TX	I finally got my joystick problems worked out and was flying on line. The destroyer mission, with Mustangs. Can't do a whole lot more, really. How do you progress, and free up some more missions? Do I just fly the same mission over and over again? _________________________ "From our orbital vantage point, we observe an earth without borders, full of peace, beauty and magnificence, and we pray that humanity as a whole can imagine a borderless world as we see it, and strive to live as one in peace."
