As I run IL2 I'll take those screenshoots!

Anyway in He-111 the looks is similar in direction but look like in a binocular shape....I'll check the Ju-88 too!

    Once a Fritz-X or Hs-293 is launched, the bomb sight becomes “immobile.”  After detonation of the weapon somewhere in the blur, the bomb sight becomes controllable again. How can I change this so I can control weapon and bomb sight together?

Not at all at the moment. The bombsight stays non-moveable intentionally. The keys used to control your bombsight are the keys to control the bombs now. It doesn't make much sense to let them control both at once since you might want to side-step your bomb 20 times when you need to side-step the bombsight just let's say 2 times.
Actually controlling the bombs is only fun from outside (F2 or F7) view.

Imho it is also fun to controll the bombs from the crew positions. The standard commands for the bomb controll are side slip +/- and bombsight altitude +/-, thus no need to disable the bombsight angle +/-. Please see how it is working with the Do 217 and He 111.

While it is still possible and more immersive to use the Henschel from the copilots window position with the target at 1 to 3 o' clock, the use of the Fritz X without moving the bombsight up and down is uneccesarily impaired.

My workaround for Fritz X so far is: 

- dial in the required angle,
- as soon as the crosshairs are about to reach the target, tilt down the bombsight,
- release Fritz X and keep it in sight by adjusting plane speed.

What I miss here is the ability to move the bombsight up in order to quickly check the relation between Fritz X and the target.

It would be great if someone finds the time to fix this.

I have the same problem with the Torpedokommandogerät (beautifully long german word (Torpedokommandogerätbedienermützenständerherstellerehefraukittelschürzenfabrikantenvilla.)) not showing as Walter. I tried to open some of the .tga files f.g. z_angle et al., but irfan view refuses to open them complaining about a wrong file format or corrupted file. Redownloaded, but still got the same. Is there any way to get the Torpedogerät 3do stuff in a working condition?

i can 100% guarantee you that you've done something wrong, even though you say you haven't. ;)
what exactly do you mean by 'it won't work?' what happens?
we need specific details, otherwise we simply can't help you.
and some game info, as well, without which we can't help - what game version? what mods?
any answers you expect will only be as good as the info you provide, and you've provided none...

I am not sure where to post this request, so I will ask here in this section dealing with
this particular aircraft, because its about it.

What do I need to change in its files to only have one wing headlight?
What I mean is,
this airplane only had one headlight on its port side wing and not two lights as it is using now.

Even though I can erase the starboard headlight from its skin, when I turn the lights on at night
for landing (or taking off) both lights will turn on. This looks weird to me.
I would like to use only one light on this airplane port-side wing.
is this possible, or too complicated to mess around with its files?

IIRC....you can do it by editing the wings hooks....you must find the hook related to that light and after edit it....

should be simple as just deleting that hook info - you'll need to figure out which hook it is, though, obviously :D

Thank you for the great plane!
But, i have a little problem. When i am on a bombing run, wanted to drop the bombs, its dropping it, 1 by 1, and long times between  two bombs. Can anyone help me with this? I use Modact 5.3 on 4.12.2

This happens only when you have disabled "Limited Ammo" in your difficulty settings. Then again the gap is intentional and it depends on the bombs you've loaded. We didn't touch anything there, it's stock game values. For instance SC50 have a gap of 1/3sec., SC70 have 1/2sec., SC250 have 1sec., SC500 and larger have 4sec.
As soon as you enable "Limited Ammo" your bombs will drop at fast as you release them.

Best regards - Mike
