Adolf, this really isn't "Off Topic". If you don't get answers to all your questions you may want to repost in "General". "General" is read by a lot more people.

As a follow-up to Aladar's answer, most of the planes that you can download, if not in the planepak, are alpha's or beta's. As such they are posted for flight testing only and may not come with Training or Hanger missions. You have to place them in your own missions using the mission editor.

Re fire and bullet holes. Someone is working on bullet holes. They are not built into the game and may cause too much a FPS hit if/when available. No one has addressed the fire graphic as far as I know. It would be another OpenPlane issue so I don't know if it can be changed or not.

Re FW190 FM. Whoever worked on it will have to answer that. It's been changed from the out-of-the-box FM. I'm assuming you are flying the planepak edition. The was a .sm lately that improved ground handling. You need the author's to reply for more detail.

The manual sucks but I believe your CD should have Help files including a keyboard reference. Just search your CD. There is a better keyboard reference posted with the all the additions from the boxed version. You can do a keyword search on this board or someone will post a link. I'm not home so can't spend a lot of time hunting things down for you. Sorry.

Re Voodoo 3. Do you have the latest drivers? Since you are seeing it in other games it sounds like a driver issue.

Hope this get's you started in the right direction.

A twitchy plane sounds like it could be an over-sensative joystick. Do you happen to be using an MS Sidewinder? That was the stick most people had who reported twitchy planes. There's a utility at stickworks.com called CTFJ that helped most of the people having trouble aiming.

The plane pack is about six months old.. here is a new 190a4 and spitfire flight model. They are not compatible for online play.
