Is it possible to change the difficulty level in Janes WW2 Fighters? I have the 1.08 patch installed but can't seem to change the difficulty from ace and I'm not yet good enough to last more than a couple of minutes at that level!!

many thanks in advance

If you're talking about the flight model, then press
shift+D
to change it during flight.

I was thinking more in the mission selection screen where you can look at the flights and a dropdown list box is displayed when you click on the wingmens difficulty level. I can see other settings but if I click them they reset to the default ace. is this hardcoded into the missions or is it possible to change them?

Hmm...
For that I think you'd have to load the mission in the mission editor and change it there.

If you fly out of the Mis. Builder, you can change anything, inc. the pilot ratings. If you move the planes, or set them to a series of waypoints AFTER you set the skill level, it will reset to ace. Max

As far as WWII Fighters goes, it's just more ferocious enemy AI than many other prop sims. I think many guys around here would agree; you can go up and shoot down a lot of bandits your first time in EAW or CFS but in Jane's, if you don't take it seriously the first time, you'll feel like you're fighting humans online.

As someone else has posted, I think you can only control AI levels in custom missions.

I'll give the mission editor a go until I've built up my skill a bit!!!
