Daidalos Team's Room -QUESTIONS AND REQUESTS ONLY on IL2 Authorized Addons

Thanks, sounds indeed a bit odd. We'll see.

Thanks for the work so far team Any chance of putting a display of the trim positions like the speed bar? Not urgent but might help people when learning to use the trim tabs.

In the soon to be released 4.10 patch it looks like most of the variants of spitfires are covered, (if the info is accurate)

In the future (4.11 or further) are there any plans to release the FW190A2, A3 & the Western front variant of the A4. As well as the A7?

Some good 1941- 1943 Normandy air campaigns,such as Dieppe could be fabricated then.

Hello anybody,

i registered a few minutes ago. Maybe some of you do know me from the
m4t or A&A forums already.

At first i want to express my thanks to the great work of TD!
It is is a great thing this comparably 'old' sim is officially developed further.
Unique in the game branch i guess. IL-2 sturmovik is still the best flightsim
available in my eyes.

There are many new features in 4.10 i really love i.e. the copy/paste thing in FMB - i could have saved lots of hours spent with mission building.

I very much appreciate the new calender feature with different sunset/nightfall phases etc. - very well idea.


Implementing i. e. wind effects is a thing which make matters more complicate but more realistic too.

The much more adjustable cloud height is very useful when building historical
missions.

The new salomon islands maps are great, new maps are always
an appreciated thing.

New weapon and droptank options are always a great thing. The droptank
option is/was missing on a lot of aircraft. This made me oftenly thinking about
modding my game - but i didn't.

The oftenly annoying 'ace' abilities of gunners were corrected.

Honestly i must say i'm not a big fan of altering 3Dmodels in this late development phase because there are many excellent and unique skins which aren't compatible to this now (Hs129, Ju88 ). I don't expect we get a lot of new skins until SOW comes out.

Of course - like every player - i have my own 'wishlist' regarding
further patches. Maybe some or all of these were mentioned already by
others:

- at first place i'd like to implement all heavy flak firing through the clouds. Building historical bomber missions where bombers flew above compact cloud cover and encountered heavy flak barrage fire isn't possible now.

- at second place i'd like to get some simple (square or rectangle) typial desert buildings with flat tops, sand or white colored, like used by the arabs.
There were so beautiful new buildings with 4.09, maybe it is possible to
design such simple ones with one of the next patches?

- a windsock object is present on every airfield in the world, but not
in IL-2 sturmovik. I would love even to get a static one.

- the 'AI seeing through the clouds' thing should be corrected, but
I'd like to get this corrected feature as an option in the difficults menu.

- droptank options for all Bf109 and FW190 models. In fact historically nearly all of these flew with droptanks, some occasionally, others regularly.

- correcting the IL-2's spinner bug - not all users seem to have this issue but
i do as a lot of others too. All IL-2 variants are displayed in my game with the ugly game generated spinners (green/red/yellow/blue) instead of the selected skin spinners.

- nightfighter variants of aircraft like Ju88 or Bf110 with nose antennas

There are much more but i am of course aware we will not get a lancaster
in this game. I am just a user not a developer and of course have no idea
what efforts it take to implement new features.

Wishes like support of quadcore, more RAM or newer OS - don't know if this realizable.

However thank you very much for your work
and all the best

Armin

I was using the phrase "one-time" on a more global scale. The number of missions flown against soviet landings in the Kuban delta in these nutshells is insanely small when compared to the anti-tank ops flown throughout the last two years of the conflict.
