    Hello! My name is Simon and I am a self employed joiner based in Somerset UK. I am a big fan of IL2 1946 primarily because of all the mods and extra content available for the game. I am building a platform (Purely for 1946) which will have all the usual kit (track IR, FFB Sidewinder modded flightstick & audiofx headphones, wind sim etc). Being a joiner, I will be using wood throughout, 18mm ply and braced with large hardwood sections, the base platform is rock solid! Build is in early stage at the moment.
    I am just starting out researching motion options, 2 maybe 3dof, I will no doubt be asking questions and will be grateful for any help given. First question though, is the IL2 plugin on the site compatible with IL2 1946? Will it work for wind generation / airspeed as a start point for my project?
    Thanks

    Aha! Thanks! Fingers xx’d though, someone else on the forum says the plugin
    Thanks for the info . Looking at Prilad’s video showing the plugin working, the version of Il2 looks old? Did some more digging and found another user asking the same question a while ago, it was answered that the plugin does indeed work in ‘46 . If for some reason it doesn’t then I will look again at what you said, thanks.
