Could any buddy tell me how to select bombs?  I have 'select missiles' in controls menu.

"Toggle Bomb Release mode" key , here.



If missing, some mods conflicting to Engine mod.


And when this key doesn't work for bomb selecting after correctly the key assigned,
the aircraft you are riding doesn't support select bomb release mode.
Aircrafts' classfile side design is needed to use this function, too.

Requires 4.12 & VPmodpack. It does not modify vpmodpack, the only file being overwritten is the il2fb.ini (selector options).
Compressed size is 3250Mb, extracted is 17114Mb.

I'm interested on this, but am a bit confused.
If I understand correctly, if one wants to try JETWAR on a clean IL2 (v4.12.2) installation, it means there is also the need to download and install VP-Modpack's 16 big RAR files + 2 patches, all worth about 44GB(!) file size in disc, right?
So, this uses some part of VP-Modpack to have files feed, but yet not directly compatible (run separately)...?

....if so, and noticing that it's "WIP", please allow me the appeal, having in mind those who want the Korea and Vietnam jet-era in lL-2 1946 (with VP-Modpack quality standards) without the need to install other big mod packages and complications.

Instead of making JETWAR an addon for VP-Modpack, wouldn't it be a better idea to make it a separate release, independent of any other mod?
Considering that the older "IL2 1956" jet-era mod became pretty complicated to install and get to work (and outdated?) for the average user, and having more assets for the jet era available since that, I'd consider JETWAR as a far nicer alternative and a golden opportunity to take on.

What I mean is, we now have VP-Modpack as one of the most complete, polished and optimized (and probably the most valid now) "IL2 mod compilations" meant specifically for WW2.
Maybe JETWAR could become the same for the Korea and Vietnam conflicts on IL2, with respective era aircraft, maps, assets, missions and campaigns, released as full standalone mod package.
Then maybe releasing an optional patch for those that do want to mix JETWAR with VP-Modpack.

Anyway, just an appeal/suggestion, nothing more.
I'm very appreciative of the efforts of everyone involved and, considering VP-Modpack's qualities, then the guys bringing JETWAR to us are onto something.

Why not need "High Resolution / True Color Textures Mod in JTW?
Or do I better install it for further stability?

I have a problem with the font

[vpmedia]

Deactivate or delete #JETWAR\GUI\font folder.

[Izengrimm]

I just corrected conf.ini in the line "locale=ru" changed it to ''=en'' and that's it

Thanks anyway!

Love this mod, but not all of my jets, such as the mig 21 have skin folders, whereas they used to do. In addition, there are many ww2 maps in jetwars that aren't in the main VP modpack that I can't use in the ww2 version.

[vpmedia]

It seems that you did not read the release posts.

There's a large jsgme skinpack included, you probably forgot to activate it.

Btw the skin folder names are in the air.ini, first column.

The map list can be expanded in vpmodpack:

Main features of the modpack:
...
- by default only the best maps (~200) are in the list, but a secondary all.ini is available with 350+ maps of the full DBW set (*#SAS\MAPMODS\MAPS\-all.ini is the full DBW map set ini file, remove '-' to activate)

This is very nice, I played a bit with it this afternoon. I think the AC-47's gun sights are a bit misaligned, is it intended for use in trackir?

[Groovy Greensnack]

Here is the gunsight on toggle gunsight mode at about 60 degrees fov.

How can I fix my nose wheel?
Mig-21 runner, rotating back and forth

Yes, I wrote in the first post that the pack is still WIP and there are a few problems I could not fix.
I'd say that most of the planes work fine. If you want a better jet pack, get BAT.
