This is almost laughable.

From the Team Daidalos regarding the legal side of mods read this link

The Team Daidalos will probably continue to update IL2 1946 and if you wanted to submit your 3d modelling to them for approval this is the way to get it included officially.

It won't work as in good old "Maddox fix everything by himself" days. Your model should be done according to the strict technical requirements and without errors to be accepted by Daidalos. There hardly are more then 5 models among all available mods, which would be able to pass their QC at them moment.
From other hand, they, indeed, will be glad help people to understand those requirements and explain, what to be fixed.

"guod: One last question which you can probably guess what it is... when can we download the final v4.09 update?

Oleg: As soon as we are able."

If my memory serves me I would like to ask if anyone here can take an educated guess as to just what state of development SOW is in now, considering that I remember Oleg answered someone asking about the release of the 4.09m final with something like
"4.09 final will only be released when BOB gets to a set point in development".

If Oleg's answer to that question is still valid, it would mean that SOW is in or atleast very close to that "special" milestone in its development doesn't it?

Ofcoarse I could be a bit dillusional and that might be wishful thinking, but still..

It could also be that SOW is so far off they have decided to throw us a patch. I guess we will know in September when we finally get to see the SOW in game pic's that Oleg promised us. If we dont get them in September that will be and indication of where we are at, also there is no marketing/official website or system spec's, this kinda tells me we are a long way off. Also the idea that Oleg is beta testing some SOW idea's is surely insane.

Oh, boy...

Could you, please, actually read the interviews? It is clearly stated there, that idea to finalize the 4.09 came from outside of the Maddox Games. If there was no Daidalos team, the 4.09 will remain beta forever.

I did read the interview, but you seem to be suggesting that some 'Team' decided to finalize 4.09 whether Oleg liked it or not. Obviously Oleg must of agreed.

Obviously, this what I was talking about. Exactly.

Sure. After he was presented with 80% ready content. Until then he didn't even know, there is any 4.09 development underway. He liked what he saw and agreed to release the 4.09 under his name with condition, that all work will be done by the 3rd party and no involvement of his stuff will be required. And, indeed, if everything will be done to his requirements and standards.

I was anticipating some bone being thrown to the Il-2 community once Rise of Flight was released. A very necessary thing to try to keep their client base until late 2010 or beyond.

[JG52Uther]

You could be right Feathered!
By the time SoW is released,RoF might have developed into a game rather than a paid beta!

The take over of IL-2 beta 409 patch by Team Daidalos is great news. Oleg no longer has to worry about completing the beta and can concentrate solely on SOW and all their addons. With the 4.09 beta no longer tied to the SOW development time frame, 409 can be completed at any time. Unfortunately the Daidalos Team is also working on the SOW development so who knows when they will be free to work solely on the patch.

With the completion of BOB all of Olegs team will be working on the Med instead of the IL-2 beta. and the Daidalos team will not only complete the patch but add content for the forseeable future. Best possible scenario for all concerned.
