Accurate Flight model?
« on: August 08, 2003, 11:49:42 AM »
hallo

In RL i make one sortie in airplane, flying touristic plane half hour. So my expirience in this is poor,  better i say i have no expirience. I never take voice about beucose i have no idea about this.

As fanboy i belive AH FM is best. And somtimes when other non flying in RL "virtual pilot" write, his sim have better FM.  Im piss off.
How somone can tell FM of WB2.7 is close to real then any other. Including AH, ww2ol, or il2/fb.

Im courious how its comparable to RL. Walking with charts data can make sim more accurate? Or its not only data but fealling of pilot too?

How in this looks accuracy of FM between wb2.X and AH?

regards

ps. /of course, i know its only game,)/

Well the last time I flew WB wich was when wb3.0 first came out they felt very similar to me, no big surprise there.  The only thing was that stupid stick centering thing that IEN added to 2.7 after ICI left.  That completely ruins the FM for me and the inferior gunnery model. but the FM's seemed very similar to me.

 I loved IL2FB's FM until I realized it does't model torque that ruined it for me, but the graphics are so good it's still fun to fly.  I think the WW2OL 1.9 new FM's are fantastic and very similar to the other high end flight models.  It still feels like im on rails though.  I'm going to mess with my stick scaling to see if I can smooth it out some.

 Personally I think AH still has the best all around FM out there.  But each sim does something better than the others.  WW2OL has a VERY extensive damage model, even if it's not visual yet.  IL2 has the best gunnery model.  BUT :D  I've never flown a ww2 high performance airplane in combat, so I really can't know how close any of it is.  They're all fun though :)
