I don't know if this is the right place to post this?, but I have a problem with the in game Spitfire MK.Vb

After 5 min flight all the ai MK.Vb's runs out of fuel????

[LuseKofte]

Is this in all missions, campaigns or did you just test it in one QMB mission. Because when missions are made in FMB you can alter the content of fuel

This is in all missions, but it only appears with the MK.Vb(1941) not the MK.Vb 1942

so this only happens with the ai Vb's?
perhaps it's related to an old problem with ai planes using wrong settings (was it from the ai overheating mod? - somebody help jog my memory here! ) and they would actually be overheating, not running out of fuel. it's the only thing i can think of that caused this behavior.

Please indicate which package (4.09/4.10 ...)
This problem existed with some 409 Hurricane because of carburetors in the EMD RR Merlin.
I would check that the Spit are not achieved the same disease!

Yes only the MK.Vb, not the MK.VbLF

... I am using 4.09b

ooo...errr......as in 409b1m? you mean the old AAA UI?  ???
in that case, i'm really sorry, but we've long ago stopped supporting that particular version of the game.

Did you check if your MK.Vb is having the same problem? Something tells me that it could be the same  problem as with the Hurricane.  The MK.Vb is a carburator fitted engine(turns off by negativeg's). The MK.VbLF has an enjection engine, and this model works well.

The problem starts after 5 min flights, where the ai MK.Vb's starts to make a engine failure sound(like when overheating), following a complete fallout of the engines on all ai Mk.Vb's.

Sorry, but...
I tested the full range of Spitfire 5.
Under UP2.01 with buttons_SAS_409_9.7 and buttons_C6_409_8.7e.
All work well!
Are you using UP2 or ModAct ... ?

[moscafan]

Hi,

I found the cause of the problem, if not loading the HotAI MOD, everithing is fine. So the problem is probably caused by the HotAI mod. And sorry for wasting your time on this kind of crap, but I am rusty, as I haven't dealed with Il2 modding for some years.

I use this mod (v1.2) in my UP2.01!
And it works!
