The consensus has been that there will be no missions until the January 4th mission.

Pretty cool. I wish all our missions had been that easy:)

Anthropomorphic Controls will lock you out until it receives no input from the axis. In your case it sounds like the extremes what the area it wasn't sending input. Other sticks may show jitters at the extremes but show nothing in the middle. All very stick specific.

At any rate, I am glad you got it working!

I fiddled around with the deadzones a bit and flew around for about an hour, no control lock ups! I think on my end it was more of a problem with one or more of my rotary dials not being fully engaged and it would lock me out until I adjusted it to full rotation. Adjusting the deadzones a little more worked like a champ. I am happy now:-)

Actually, there is nothing wrong with Anthropomorphic controls. The problems that people have are related to how they are setting up their controls and how 'twitchy' they are. I am writing another post concerning this topic so keep your eyes out.

I like the server. I have been flying it almost everyday this week getting used to the new CEM settings. I would like to make one recommendation though, uncheck the Anthropomorphic controls in the realism settings. It does not work correctly for some users(me) in that my throttle, rad, orad, and TIR controls on my HOTAS will lock up for a few minutes at a time. I have aslo been flying on Syndicates' server and have had no control lock ups. They have the Anthropomorphic controls unchecked. Doing some research on the forums seems to suggest there is a problem with this feature.

Thanks a lot for the information and links, Krupinski. Gonna give it a try on our root as soon as they fixed some multiplayer issues. (coop mode,sound etc.)

@Hett Re: 1946 Server

Workin on it.

The dedicate server has been with the game since it was released. It's hasn't been noticeable since there hasn't been a separate download. But rest assured, its a dedicated server.

To see it in action right click the game title in your steam library and choose properties. Then click Set Launch Options and add '-server' without quotes. This will start IL-2 Cliffs of Dover in dedicated server mode.

The only documentation is the forums over at 1C, forum.1cpublishing.eu/forumdisplay.php?f=189.

These two threads are about the issues I had.

Very handy AND I can actually join it! Any way we can also get a dedicated 1946 server?
