Note: Many Japanese planes, especially in early war missions, are not equipped with radios. Therefore, you will not be able to send radio commands to your squadmates or hear any radio chatter during the mission. 40 SPECIAL FEATURE SINGLE-PLAYER SINGLE-PLAYER 41 To eliminate the game subtitles appearing on-screen for pilots' voices: 1. Using the Windows Notepad, open the conf. ini file. Find the string [game] in the conf. ini file. Find the NoSubTitles line and change the 0 to 1: NoSubTitles = 1 This option enables you to switch off these unpleasant physiological reactions, though if you do so, the level of realism lowers considerably. · Wind and Turbulence: Selecting this option disrupts the conditions you would face while flying your plane. Normally, side wind influences takeoff and landing, and turbulence prevents smooth flying. · No Instant Success: If this option is enabled, you have to complete each mission before continuing to the next. If this option is disabled, then you may begin the next mission even if you haven't completed your current mission. · Realistic Landings: If this option is selected, you might break the chassis on rough landings. · Takeoff and Landing: These are two of the most difficult elements of flying, especially landing. With this option, you can eliminate the necessity of bothering with it. You will start and finish your task in the air. · Cockpit Always On: When this option is selected, you cannot make your cockpit invisible. Flying with an invisible cockpit is nice and easy because your field of vision is clear. In real life, this is practically impossible. This option is designed for those who enjoy full realism. · External Views: Some people think that taking a detached view of oneself is cheating because a real pilot has no such opportunity. In Pacific Fighters, you can deselect this option, which naturally adds realism. · No Padlock: Padlock is a mode of vision in which the direction of your glance follows the chosen target. There has been a lot of discussion about the realism of such an approach; you can switch it off here if you want to.
