Just returned to the game after a long break. When I start it says COD Blitz instead of CoD I hope I'm still on the right version 4.53.0. Problem. When I select external view BAM I'm external with no control and no way to get back in the aircraft I have used IL-2 since the beginning and understand button/axis mapping However no matter how I set the inside view command it doesn't work. Is this a known problem or am I just an Idiot. I have adjusted the realism and all other settings but stilll when I press external view for me the war is over.

Seriously I have had 41 views and no one else ever had this problem I have three different keys set to internal view and nothing gets me back into the airplane. I was away from the game as my wife went through a protracted illness that ended with her death. My brain is not as clear as it was. I am 72. No one can help with this? I just bspent another hour trying everything in controls, difficulty settings and video controls and nothing works. Please try to help.

You are not the first victim of this "bug" - probable are using the wrong "External View" control key, see:

[Linked Image]

The first is not "External View" but something like "Leave control for AI and became external view spectador."*

The second allow you see aircraft by outside and by press F1 (Cockpit View) return for plane interior.

* In that situation F1 (Cockpit View) don't work, because player is not more in control of plane, but AI.
Could be used "Take Control of Selected AI Aircraft" - seems defaults key is Alt+F1 if in Options > "Realism" > all "Can not..." is unticked.

I've asked several times for TF to fix this and another controls bad names, who cause headache for casual players but for some mysterious reason this is leaved as is.

In default STEAM "vanilla" version I have changed this with Keygets and Notepad++, what is not possible in TF version due different encryption.

BTW- Keys assigned in this pictures maybe is not default, but customized, look in you game controls for proper keys.

Hello sunray461. I am very sorry to hear of the passing of your wife . Peace to you and your Family Sir.
I took these pictures of my realism setting and control setting for you. I been following Blitz pretty
closely and I have not seen anyone else having key bind issues. I hope maybe these pics will
expose some simple overlooked issue that is causing the problem for you Sir.
If you need more help you might want to sign up to the ATAG Forums and post your
question there. The people at ATAG are very friendly, very helpful and the most knowledgeable
about all things COLD_Blitz. Good Luck!

ATAG Forums

EDIT 1 Sokol1 to the rescue! I just learned something from Sokol1, one of the CLOD_Blitz Gurus!!!
Note to self = never use ALT+F2 for external view,... unless you want to drive yourself crazy. dizzy hahaha

EDIT 2 So the moral of the story is, use F2 for external view only, Then F1 will take you back in the cockpit. thumbsup

EDIT 3Set a key, such as Alt+F8 for "External View-Cycle Enemy Aircraft. This will allow you to externally cycle
through the enemy aircraft only, unlike Cntrl+F2 which will cycle through all objects in the mission before showing the enemy aircraft.
See pict 3 with red arrow.

EDIT 4 sunray461 CLOD Blitz 4.53.0 is the correct version. Welcome back!!! winkngrin
