Need help

Postby alpha1 » Sun Dec 12, 2004 12:03 pm

i joined this forum to ask for some help. I looked al over the internet and never found my answer. You know you get your wingman. Those guys who fly with you and stuff. They never attack the enemy. I have tried pressing ''for attack but they just say ok and do nothing. They just get shot down after a while. can you tell me how to get my wingman help me in the fight?

Also i used to play cfs2 about a year ago. I have only just began playing it again and i cant find somthing i used to be able to do. There was a way i could make time go faster. As in everything wne tquicker so i could get between islands quicker. there was a button on my keyboard which when pressed time would go 2x quicker 4x and 8x. but i can't find it now :( i have tried all my buttons but nothing please help.

Hi Alpha1. You might have to give your wingmen the Split command first. My Fox Four colleague Tom Sanford wrote out a few tips for getting the best out of missions. You might like to check them out. http://www.simviation.com/lair/cfs2kwfaq2.htm

For changing the sim rate, Bill Potvin's Cfo_weather should do what you want. http://www.cfsops.com/Modules/cfo_weather/Cfo_Weather_75.htm

I don't think I ever tried the CFS2 version of Cfo_weather. Make sure you read the instructions on the download page carefully. Bill always goes to a lot of trouble to explain everything in minute detail. You shouldn't have any problems with his stuff - providing you install it properly.

no you don't understand, that bar at the top the wihte bar with options on like view and tools. a bit like the one you have at the top of your internet explorer. that bar. i can't access it and that is how you change the sim rate. i read his thing perfectly. i have downloaded cfs2 weather 7.5 but still have problem. i have had this problem for ages anyway. can't get the white bar up and eithout that can't go anywere.
