The answer is that the 4.05 hack did. It lead to extra work being allocated to adding protection for the 4.06-4.08m series. The second hack then partially bypassed this protection but Oleg had moved his team to finishing Bob by then and Oleg decided to make no "move to parry it" (so it shouldn't have cost the team time).

Oleg: Will you be making everyone that worked on the recent map pack Beta Testers for Bob? I would like to nominate them (after all they know enough they could even help test the map tools etc.)

S!

[Haigotron]

thanks for the beta Oleg and co, a great gift, better than the socks I received

Small question from me here: Will it be corrected?

I noticed kind of bug on maps with water above 0m in perfect mode, water=2.

The waves with the reflections appear to be at 0 meters, although the surface of the lake is much higher. One can see through the landscape, so to speak.

Thank's, but the question was not for you to answer....lol

I think the fact that the moderator here, Evgeny has asked that the hack not be discussed on this board pretty much answers the question...I don't think it did 1c any good - but telling us all just exactly how much extra work it caused or created might only encourage some unfortunate persons - and yeah I know - no one asked me either.

Thanks to Oleg for taking the time to address questions related to the SoW:BoB - it is appreciated

[SlipBall]

Roger that!....I must have missed that request from Evgeny

[heywooood]

WoW - this board is as active as the UBI one ever was....nice!

hope you are having a great holiday Slipball! party on

Oleg,I don't know if this question has already been asked but here goes:
In il2 online most servers have skin download set to 'OFF'. Now we have some great new default skins with 4.09 patch, but sometimes the skins do not fit with a particular map/scenario.
Would it be possible to have more than one default skin per plane in SoW?
For example:
default 1= Winter skin
default 2=summer skin
default 3=desert skin
etc.
