I think I should pose this question to the scripting gurus here. Howbout scripting toe braking and combining the right toe brake w/a right rudder turn. Same thing w/the left. When braking both at the same time then theoretically you'd steer straight. Maybe have the brakes come on first before the steering.

I know this is kind of vague, but I was wondering if something like this would be possible even though it's not 100% accurate. At least it would give us the "feel" of differential braking.

Yes it is fairly easy to implement. Bob Church has a solution for IL2 here (http://www.ch-hangar.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=299) that should work equally well for LOMAC after some fine tuning.

I never implemented it in IL2/PF myself because it would feel awful to not be abale to steer on the ground just because your rudder or control wires were shot up. As for LOMAC I never played it, but I imagine tail damage that not make you bail or explode is pretty rare. So if I ever take LOMAC up I will absolutely implöement Bob's script!

I hope this helps a bit,
Abe

EDIT:
Use Michaels script instead! :idea:

EDIT2:
Huh I'm trying to set an edit recorde here... You might need to check this (http://www.ch-hangar.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=1886&hl=) thread out as well...
