Simple questions

[HoYa]

Hello all,

 

I’ve played this game for several years but only the FC3 aircraft. Tonight I tried the viper and LOVED IT. So, I’m hoping I can trouble you with some simple questions.

 

1. For game play (not just complexity). What is the difference between sim and easy ?

2. Flying “instant action” how do I get to to fly on easy instead of sim?

3. I couldn't find commands for the landing gear, radar, or even nav lights, can these be tied to a hotas or are they only cockpit clickable ?

 

Thanks to all who reply, I do appreciate it.

For question 3, normally all the clickable buttons and switches could be also assigned to keybinds and hotas controls, for example on my keyboard landing gear is the key "g", radar designation is the hat on my joystick etc...

I am not sure how you couldn't find these in the controls menu but be sure to check if the airplane you want to modify the keybinds in is "f16c Sim"

Here's a video btw, you may skip to 5:28

The "Easy" version of the F-16 currently doesn't work, I don't suggest using it. Turn all game mode or easy mode off, all they do is cause problems. Just concentrate on learning each system one by one. If you've been flying FC3 aircraft for years then you should have a good understanding of the flight dynamics etc. Go on Youtube and look for tutorial videos about each system. Start off with learning how to start the aircraft and work from there.
