It is a great looking sim, also, those are some nice screens.

Totally agree! Nice screens

Nononono... there must be something better someday... this can´t be the end...

The Sunderland dead gunner is very striking.

friday update


the ATAG guys prepare a new patch stay tuned...:grin:

Very nice screenshots, it doesn't get much better than that!

nice shots indeed ! :)

So, I guess it's all about looks for you?

When did the ATAG forum become members only? I used to be able to just read the forum if I chose to.

You just have to register to access the websight, you don't have to be a member. Hope this helps

as i understand it they are keeping some stuff private until they are ready to stop any bitching going on before its even done.

well played atag looking forward to it !

Sorry to sound noobish but what's ATAG?

The ONE and only english-speaking group that kept online-play alive during ever...

Ahhhh. okay. I can understand that. Summer 2012 I was able to at least read the forums without registering, but if they have a pot simmering with good stuff, I can see the need of keeping things mum until they are ready.

Excellent way to start the new year! Can't wait to see what they come up with. Thank you to all those working on this project. Salute. :grin:

Hi Robert,

Macro is quite right that we have a growing team of programmers working on CoD in a section of ATAG that the public (including myself) has no access to. The reason we ask folks to register on the website's forum (which we all can access) is more mundane: spammers. Of late we've had an increasing number of spambot attacks which really mucks up the website/forum, requiring a few of us to "take out the trash" and clean things up. Fortunately, the info we ask you to register is absolutely minimal, but it does weed out the humans from the 'bots.

Hopefully we'll see you there! :)

Of course there will one day be something better. I think he means to date.

All it will take is a developer who is willing to push the boundaries.

No for me its smooth multiplayer with 80+ Players plus AI flights. COD gives this and more!

Did I mention the brilliant results Mission builders and scripters are producing with the c# script. Working Radar, Co-op, refuel and rearm just to mention a few.

COD has really set a standard that is going to take a lot of resolve and forward thinking on the part of developers to pass.

Cheers!

Now that I agree completely with, sadly I think it is going to be a long time indeed before another WWII sim exceeds the depth and detail of COD.

Not only english-speaking - besides some "arcade"servers with half a dozen players - the only in the whole world!

Repka server are closed in December, 30...

"Repka" сообщает о своей ликвидации, которая произойдет 30.12.2012.

Wait, did you say Refuel and Rearm is in via scripting?

yes in the atag server we have the ability to <rr

So....could this be done offline at some stage??

Well done ATAG !!

progress update of the patch and photos here guys

http://theairtacticalassaultgroup.co...rogress-Update

Oh.... why?

yes wait for e-mail it will take some time..

Are the patches for offline single player as well?

Yes, from what has been said. They will included there own software lock to prevent online shenanigans as well. If anything they are approaching this like professionals where everyone will benefit.

Even tho she has a blemishes here & there ...she is one of the best dates I've ever had!

The big question is how will these patches affect playing on Steam? Meaning, will we get banned from Steam for using them?

Bliss, this is fricking awesome. It's hard to believe, but you ATAG guys are keeping this SIM alive. It gives a lot of hope to some of us that were looking forward to more stuff because the engine and scripting is so incredibly powerful.

Wow! Will you announce them at this site ?

I, like you, am just an eager waiter. But they have a thread at their forums that you need to check out, it has a couple of screenshots in it. Things like planes above the 9000m limit, snow on maps etc. :)

once again; VAC is not working for Steam: IL2 CLOD...the only thing it checks is your files are up to date or if missing, corrupted. you can turn that feature off.

ok, good to know. This will be epic.

Certainly the most important/hopeful update in a very long time:grin:

Its neat to see that they tackling the fm issues. As well as coloring the map differently. But are any of these changes changing the core code? Or are they just psuedo fixes tinkering with fm's with kegetys editor. I guess im just skeptical of real changes showing up anytime soon. Though they are grappling with some very sought after changes. More power to them. But i keep a skeptical eye on the whole mod situation. Until the core code has been released or properly hacked (illegal?). I dont know how much extra content or ang deep fixes we'll see.

And honestly they have until early 2014 to get the ball rolling. Simply because most will be going to BoS regardless of its quality just because it is new. We'll see. Im a fan of pretty much all sims. Cant wait to find one that actually providea that "complete" experience. Both CloD and RoF have delivered incomplete experiences. I hope the 1c team with 777's guys can get the job done. Or be beaten to the punch by modclod

There won't be any core changes without the source code. All of the mods you see in 1946 are just changes to java class files, which are out of the SFS archives and a few of the more core/important ones are muddled by the compiler and some simply can't be resolved, at least this is the way I see it meaning that all changes will be on the surface and nothing more. That and whatever DLL's they are able to open properly as is the case with carsmasters graphics mods. Like they said, we could have self shadowing in IL-2 as it's supported by the OpenGL engine it uses but without the source files this isn't a possibility.
