The official WoFF forums are now located on the CombatAce website at this link; although, the previous official home of the WoFF forums (SimHQ) is still fairly active and many of us post in both forums for the time being. For flight-school-type videos, I'm sure that others will pitch in with more info. -- as far as I know, there are a few WoFF fliers around who have posted extensive videos on YouTube -- such as Rick Rawlings, etc. Although, most of those videos are in-action dogfights (if you are thinking of "how to" videos such as posted many yrs. ago by Requiem for RoF -- I don't think we have equivalent videos but also possible is that I am not aware of them, if there indeed are such videos available). By the way, WoFF is strictly single player in the great tradition of the golden age of computer gaming - so forum posts here, also on the CombatAce WoFF forums, may not be as overwhelmingly regular as in multiplayer sim forums. Cheers to you and happy flying, Von S

~ For my various FM/AI/FPS/DM Mods. for First Eagles 2, WoFF, RoF & WoTR, and tips for FlightGear, recommended is to check over my CombatAce profile ( https://combatace.com/profile/86760-vons/) and to click on the "About Me" tab while there. ~

combat ace lets me create a profile, then i get the following in an email
Thanks for registering. Click the button below to validate your account and get started.
Validate my Email address
and when i hit the button i get this...
Suspended Account access has been suspended to this account. Duplicate accounts or moderator suspension are most likely causes.
ive never tried to use their forum before because i never needed to, but somehow a moderator has already banned me. I have a supposition its due to being banned from the IL2 sturmovik forum.
and well, if this was the il2 forum for flying circus 1 or flying circus 2, many of you would be locked out of your profiles for enjoying german aircraft.
Its just that my curiousity is based on very little experience from your game, and 90% of the videos i can find online are for versions of WOFF dating from 2014 to 2017,, and not the new version of heaven and hell 2.
If we can get a video presence going, we can actually make headway with the game community as the ownership of Rise of Flight have indicated the master server is getting turned off for good in a few months, and that means no new user accounts can be made after that date and the private servers will be wacked as well.
IL 2 games are under going horrible horrible changes and problems from management trying to alter game mechanics, flight models, and weapon models in order to make the new Normandy games p-51 B able to fight against, and BEAT such late war german fighters such as the fw- 190 "Dora"
ANd in the videos and photos I have seen on this little forum are such that if a good video presence was created, we would be able to get the folks starting to leave IL2 games. ALot of folks have been banned for complaining about changes to german air planes and weapons, and many have just gone back to rise of flight, but if we can start getting the disenfranchised, think of what new sales can mean for the development team.

@masterK: CombatAce has excellent spam filters and whatnot so perhaps best is to try registering with a different email (at any rate, as far as I know, they are not in any way affiliated with any IL2 forums). To reply to your other questions from another couple of threads (so that I don't post everywhere) -- a) FE2 is short for 'First Eagles 2,' a splendid do-it-yourself WWI flight sim that, when heavily modded, is in the no. 2 spot right after the WoFF series I would estimate (at any rate more exciting than RoF) -- the official page for FE2 is here; the FE2 forums for free add-ons are on the CombatAce website (if you do not like manually to mod things, heavily, I would not recommend FE2; 'tis a sim for the hands-on tinkerer and is the flight sim equivalent of a Linux distro); (b) the excellent maps that you have downloaded for WoFF may be compressed nicely to fit onto a standard 8.5 x 11 inch piece of paper (full size, as far as I remember, they are as large as two feet by two feet -- but I forget the precise dimensions now). Carry on gents' and good WoFFing to all, Von S
