i dont believe mods are allowed, though im sure there are some out there. i used to play online lots, but the player base is increadibly thin now, its nearly impossible to find a game. track IR takes a bit to get used too, though it seems to not work in third person view. i end up just using my hat switch to look around. keep in mind, this game was originally built as a console game under the title IL-2 sturmovik birds of prey. so the camera angles are built to work with thumbsticks.

Do you know if (Mods) are allowed in wings of pray? I would have to agree with you wings of pray has a slight edge over war-thunder! Do you play online or just by yourself? Iam having some issues getting my Track-ir to work right with wings of pray, seems like its very stiff and i cant get all the angles like in ususal flight sims. Comments?

i could be wrong, but i believe you can still get into testing with a pre-purchase on their website

No I havent had a chance to get my hands on that one yet, isnt it still in beta testing>? I thinl once it out I will more then likely pick it up yes, I have every other flight sim so how can I pass up on this one lol?......Yeah I read alot about it just havent had a chance to perticipate in the testing.

have you not tried it? its absolutely fantastic! simply one of the best sims i've played. though the aircraft are lacking, the detail is simply outstanding. the flight model is one of the best out there, it has a fully modeled atmosphere, so the aircraft functions nearly 1:1. its also running on the rise of flight engine, so it looks beautiful. the soundeffects are spot on, and the damage model is great, though lacking at the moment. its only been availible to us beta testers for less than a year. but trust me, its well worth your time and money. you can flood your engine by throttling to heavily, machineguns only fire when sychronized with the prop. the snow actually deforms around your gear while taxing. the cannons actually inflict shrapnel damage. its nearly DCS levels of fidelity, only lacking in full cockpit functionality and engine prep.

Schould be interesting to see what they do with new il 2 sturmovik battle of stalingrad....

its not only made by the same people, its running on the same engine. when war thunder was in closed alpha, it actually played nearly the same. it wasent until they added mouse controlls that the flight model was fundimentally broken. the engine sounds may be better, but all cannon and machinegun fire is far better sounding in wings of prey. simply fly a ME-109 to see what i mean. and the dulled colours look great, it dosent function as well in war thunder even with the advanced FX

I dont think it looks better then War-thunder no, You do relize its made by the same people wings of pray and war thunder? Both games are unique in there own way,I 4 example think the sounds are crap in wings of pray espically engine sounds! Plus war thunder has so many more planes, better graphics,way better sounds...... But wings of pray is one of my all time faviorts no doubt.
