4.10 Support & Bug Reporting

With some research, I discovered that most of the maps in folder 4 (maps 6-12) had all of the AAA set to neutral, which means that they would not change color to the home base color when a player spawned, causing them to fire on that player.

I discovered that by changing all of the AAA on those maps to RED, they would automatically change to the appropriate color of the home base, and not open fire. In the FMB, they still appear either red or blue (the only colors you can assign them in the FMB) but in-game on the mini-map they show the correct color.

These maps are in folder 4, and numbered 1-6 on the map selection screen in the MP menu, but in the FMB they are numbered 6-12.

I have fixed all of those maps, and I have attached the .zip to this post. To fix these maps, just unzip the files directly into IL2\Missions\Net\Dogfight\4 and overwrite the current missions. PLEASE backup these maps before you make any changes.

I hope this helps.

Thank you, but this has already been reported weeks ago. Yes, it's clear that the AAA on the bases is neutral. That has been reported too. The important fact to realize is that the missions are EXACTLY the same as they were in 4.09. That's the problem. In 4.09, the AAA was neutral but did not fire at a player spawning on the base.

In 4.10, the AAA is still neutral but now fires on any player that spawns on the base. That is the bug that needs to be addressed.

Yes, there is a temporary workaround if someone needs it. However, the bug itself needs to be addressed as it may affect a lot more maps/missions than just those particular DF maps you mentioned.
