Another request for loadout

**X-Raptor** · Apr-22-2014, 09:08

Good morning!.

As I am having BIG problems and not shure how-to: I ask politely I there is anyone here who can give me advice how to set a good generic loadout with best effective (but historical correct) ammo loadout for any plane with good convergence setting, and most important HOW to eventually copy paste any kind of this settings from a .txt file into the (modded-TF) game version for Sp and Multiplay (no campaign that I've read is actually a mess now..) thank you in advance.

For what plane?

Also, regarding the "historically correct" it is know pilots had preferences. Some used tracers, some others didnt. Some enjoyed cannon ammo others couldnt hit a barn with it.

to the 1st reply: for all planes possibly (or anyone can contribute to indicate his preferred loadouts and as to use this post for all dummies ..like me..).
to 2nd reply: I know every pilot use their personal ammo selection(s) I just woul like to know some good one for any plane as to have a decent one and not the default one as sometimes i noticed there are eg. lots of tracers (uneffective damage).

Im not near my rig to help you immediatly, but you can always learn from Ape of the Year video. I promise to post later my weapon loadout.

I like this as a guide.

all I can suggest is dump the tracers as you will see the rounds good enough anyway.

ahhh great minds think a lot lolsav

That video of AoY is as good as anything as a guide. The truth is that everybody has their favorites and each plane set is different. By the way, your convergences will not save with a specifically saved loadout, but will be the last convergences you used.
