In terms of early days yes I remember the clowns but for the most part they tended to stay in the circus set of servers where the other clowns played. Flying around in clown cars with 20 guys in the trunk is the visual I get. Everything on those servers made no sense. Flying Top of the Line stuff in the most goofy setups is not my cup of tea. Good news is I haven't seen it on any of the 4.09 servers so far. |

I also think that the cheater-problem (if there is one) will resolve itself
as the cheaters will soon get bored with always winning or if they have overdone it getting banned and will leave for new, more interesting playgrounds like RoF or something like that where they can be "kings" again in their small minds. <most of the online (or offline) players of IL2 are too adult to fall for cheap earnings (i hope).

Just an idea.
As I understand it, from now on, Daidalus alone will develop IL2. So, how about start a new thread for requests at Daidalus, something like Oleg Maddox’s Room? I, for example, would like to have some more head movements in cockpit. If true 6DOF would not be possible, at least the possibility to lean your head from side to side would be a vast improvement, very useful for taxi, navigations and ground attack. Then, I would suggest some cross-surgery to obtain new and interesting aircraft. For example, Yak 7 wings with a yak 9 fuselage would produce a Yak 7B. BMW engines (from FW190A) would convert a Ju 88A airframe into a G series (with solid nose and radar) or 88H (with lengthened fuselage). A new nose, with smaller diameter cowling, would change a Re 2000 into a Hungarian Héjja. An inline engine would produce a Re 2001. Then I would like the possibility to remove canopy from early Soviet fighters, as was common on LaGGs and Migs, and the possibility to open canopy on later type. La 5 were commonly flown with open canopy, even in combat. What do you think? |

The first link is to a thread that talks about some program that monitors the whereabouts of other planes almost like radar and magically it bypasses CRT=2. The simple fact is it has nothing to do with the CRT setting of the server. Some clown is simple reading the event log and then made some sort of program to show where things are. There isn't anything you can do about it now nor will there ever be anything to prevent it. The repercussions of getting caught using something like that especially in a competitive situation is well obvious. You risk getting banned. In the same thread it talks about someone being able to slip an updated TBF flight model by CRT=2 which isn't impossible but almost near impossible. The fact is any game can be compromised but at what cost? Right now as it stands CRT=2 checks the class files which includes FMs DMs and Weapons and if your client doesn't match you will get the boot. So it's pretty safe to say most servers are going to be clean if they are running with the CRT=2 setting. There are plenty of servers that don't run the setting so its easier for guys to sneek in mods on them and enjoy that type of game play. The other aspect of this is the fact most cheats are very obvious and you will face the punishment if you get caught. Most admins are very aware and there are plenty of guys making tracks so your chances of getting caught are very high. Enough said... |

... and from what I have seen.... at least in the circles I run in... most of these guys would rather not bother at all than try to cheat...

It seems that this thread is getting confused, with two topics mixed up. One is about comments on 4.09, the role of Daidalus, appreciation for the work already done and educated requests for the future. The other is a debate about cheats and mods...
Maybe it’s time to split our discussion in two distinct threads... |

By the way I agree... Most guys just don't want to bother with this kind of stuff. Most of the problems have stemmed from Eastern EU countries where a younger crowd tends to get into combat flight sims. What I find funny about all this is very rarely do you see them on the high setting servers. Why you ask? Pretty simple they start flying and realize very quickly you neen team tactics to survive and the guys are typically a cut above so SKILL plays a major role in your success. Back OT I still wish Daidalus luck in their efforts to get 4.09 completed. |
