Describe issues with BOB COD that need patch - for Oleg, Luthier

Small map issue. To find it I put in 3 images some with map on. The position on the map is indicated:

[major_setback]

I can't even start the game.

I get a warning that my graphic driver stopped responding and has recovered, then it crashes to desktop as soon as I try to fly. I only get sounds.

I updated my graphics driver. I re-installed steam and CoD. I disable AVG antivirus. Nothing helps.

I found the old graphics driver was better (I got the game working 2 times only), so I have reverted to that. When it did work I did not get a message that the graphics driver stopped and recovered!!!

Now nothing helps, the game doesn't run at all.
I see the options and settings page, but not the pilot or planes in the viewer. And I can't run the game!!!!!

I (try to) run the game at 1024x resolution. Lowest settings for everything.

This is Spitgirl, not a bug!

some bugs I found so far...


BR20 rudder trim knob animation doesnt work

BR20 prop pitch lever animation doesnt work

BR20 throttles, props, mixtures work like german/british ones (push forward to open), but the cockpit animation shows the historical 'reversed' movement (IMO Italian planes should have the historical 'reversed' throttles, without need to use different profiles)

All planes tested so far (Hurricane, Spitfire, Stuka, G50, BR20): controls randomly work or not work.
Even during one single flight they start/stop working for no apparent reason.
This happens to all controls except engine selection/unselection, and it's particularly bad when it comes to controls shown in the small throttle quadrants on the left side of the screen (thottle, prop, mix, etc)

G50 cockpit: no animations at all, incl. instruments.

Stuka has an 'afterburner' (!) rather than a supercharger... or was it the booster? Dont remember exactly, one of those two, anyway.

When there is even a small flow (wind) in mission, the planes will turn in place even with engines off and full brakes.

And after starting the plane you are unable to control the aircraft direction. You can't turn to the wind, no matter how much you push rudder or use diffrential brakes or how much throttle you use.

This is very annoying as in some cases it makes taxing, avoidin parked planes or even takeoff completely impossible.

P.S. Please oh please change the gridline, gridlabel colors to something you can actually change - as well as AF / spawnarea colors (or anything white really) as in the Channel map it is almost impossible to make them out in the map.

1. The rudder trim knob on the spitfire doesn't move
2. the water radiators open/close on Stuka is very very slow. Almost stuck.

The "Spline Road" tool in the FMB doesn't work on the Channel 1940 map. Just try and you will see what happens, it does work on the multiplayer maps though.

The JU87B-2 had hydraulically operated radiator cooling grills.

What you describe sounds like there's insufficient hydraulic pressure or something similar to operate the radiators when idling too low.

It is no bug, it is a feature ... ...

I confirm this
In other words, to get the rads open faster just give your engine more power so more hydraulic pressure is built.

S!

I still have the issue that after a while I no longer can click on the aircraft picture in the pop up window that I want to choose. This happens for instance during an online mission:

I log in, select an airfield and choose the aircraft that I want to fly through the mission. Then I want to change airfield, I do and click on the aircraft picture just above the create button. The infamous popup windows appears showing me the choices that I have. I want to select a plane but I damnit can no longer click on anything. Neither on the aircraft pictures to select a plane nor on the other buttons that are apparent in the popup menue. I also no longer can use any other button.

This is damn annoying.

Now through most buttons I can use tab and enter in order to do what I want to so it is just simply annoying. What is really frustrating is that I cannot access the different plane options by using tab. The cursor just jumps through the buttons in the plane selection popup window but never on the different planes.

Please issue a hotfix until you solve this issue by making it possible to access the plane options with using tab. At least that please. This problem is highly frustrating and already beyond annoyment.
