Another WW1 combat flight sim currently available to consider as well is a CFS3 mod "Over Flanders Fields" (requires patched CFS3 initially to install the mod but can be deleted afterward). Check out the YouTube and developer movies here:
The washed out look was a constant topic after the game was released. I got used to it...but then I never completed the game. The constant hassle of having to restore your health in one manner or another all the while being shot at - which the AI wasn't subjected to - was just too frustrating...
If you have an interest in WW1 combat flight sims you should take a look at Over Flanders Fields: Between Heaven and Hell here . I was made aware of it in another thread on the board and after reading about it and watching the updates I recently bought the game. It's a mod and was built on the...
Since my last post here I've been posting back and forth in the OFF forum (and having spent more time with the OFF setup) and I've been able to resolve the issues I initially noted here (per my Edit tag).
One of the game developers is monitoring one particular OFF 3 specific thread where I...
Received OFF today and after some initial install sequence/process issues I was able to fire up the game....sort of..
Haven't been able to find the game Readme that is referenced on the game options page. Fact is, the Readme folder referenced doesn't exist (at least I haven't been able to...
I'd read about that but wasn't sure if it requires doing a "save" mission or as you said just start a mission and exit out.
I also read bits and pieces about TrackIR but lost interest when I read it runs around $180. I suppose I should do some research before panning it..

As for OFF, based on what I've read and...
Uwe..
After reading the SimHQ developer interview and visiting the OFF forum I decided to give it a shot (ordered it today). It's only money... :D
Took note as well that the mean age of the guys in the OFF forum seems to be around 50 - with one guy on the other side of 70 which is a couple...
Really appreciate the info. My interest in combat flight sims dates back to the DOS days with the ACES offerings and pretty much every WW1 & 2 game since - which doesn't include the arcade type offerings. And I should add single player is my thing, not MP.
Personally my favorite WW1 sim was...
New here (ex-Dell community forum (8 years) after the November revamp turned it into a social club vs support oriented...).
Saw your post during my first visit here today. I read about OFF in the latest PC Gamer issue but have never bought one of these mods. If you have I'd appreciate your...
