Okay, no problem:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\IL-2 Sturmovik Cliffs of Dover

Cheers

Aces

PS. Whenever you install a Steam game it should install to a folder in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\ on whatever drive you have your Program Files (x86) folder.

Thank You Aces,,Takes forever to get an answer on Steam..Going to get a controller setup this morning I have 3 pieces of kit to try
Logitec 3d extreme
Nostromo X-52 keypad
FF2 stick
X-52 throttle (Stick Died)
Just going to work on what combination works best..I have flown a bit to get the feel of the sim and love it..Hate the damn instructor pilot in trainingg tells me turn right to 60 when I' already flying there,,,Going to attempt take offs and landings in a Hurri but it's a big improvement over the original CLOD

Hi,

I have X-52 pro, used to have a better HOTAS but it broke in the end. I don't fly much nowadays so can't really justify anything better. Yes, Team Fusion have worked miracles, it's really like a new game ever since they started working on it. The instructor is a right pain in the a$$ smile.

Have fun and give me a shout if I can helkp.

Cheers

Hi folks,

Started work on redoing my 109 cockpit primarily for the 109e4b version to accommodate the bomb arming/selection panel. I think that I prefer the new version over my first version and it will also work, with the exception of the panel for the 109e4 version.

I've also found a much faster way to work which greatly speeds up the laborious process of positioning and scaling dials and switches. smile

Post more when I'm finished.

Cheers

Aces

You don't need put Virtual Cockpit folder inside game folder.

Better (and more easy and practical to add more cockpits) put in Documents\1c Soft Club\Il-2 Sturmovik Cliffs of Dover - MOD\

But can be in any place.

Hi Sokol1,

Thanks, yes, I personally don't have mine installed in the game folder.

Kind regards

I remade my earlier Bf109e4 cockpit layout for IL-2 Cliffs of Dover to incorporate the bomb selection panel in the fighter-bomber Bf109e4b variant.



Testing this evening upload tomorrow smile

Just finished the Bf109C7, blissfully unlike the 109E7b this didn't entail a complete remake of my existing cockpit to accommodate the bomb arming and selection panel. That's it for now, I'll upload later today and post the link here in this post:

and lastly a little screenshot gallery of all 7 cockpits















Hopefully they add to the immersion.

Cheers

Aces

I can see a lot of work has gone into this project and I have tried them out, but have decided that they do not work for me.
They present what I can already see by looking at my main screen.
I use an Ipad as my second monitorand before that an old 1024 monitor. So these screen dials are small and not easy to read.

So for me What V cockpit does well is present the main important dials that can be read with a quick glance or even monitored in my peripheral vision.
I've found these pits harder to read than my main monitor.

That's fine mate, fully understood, my second monitor is a 27 inch so the dials are a good size. thanks for the feedback.

Kind regards

Final is never final LOL

I added the prop pitch selector to the 109 so that you have the E3 as well as the E3/b cockpits:

I moved the Supercharger control lever and pitot heater display to their correct positions in my Ju-87 cockpit.

If anyone is still interested I'll update my download and post a new link here.



Things I really like about the Stuka cockpit: bomb arming/selection panel lights and toggle switches, ammo reserves display, bombsight altimeter readout and of course the rotating knob for the ventral window. [size:24pt]


Cheers
