are you still changing the code so that your game meets the epiliepsy requirements without the filter, meaning that the filter will be removed anyway, and there will no longer be an on/off option?

I guess you've missread my post. In answer to your question, there wouldn't be any point.

What I'm saying is that this 'exciting' news about the option to turn the filter off might be a red herring. That is, they were going to remove the filter soon anyway, and they still will remove it, but in the short term we will have the option to switch it off. Long term, regardless of this announcement, it was going to be removed, because the game is being re-coded. While this may be necessary, it might not be what we'd like because it will reduce the historical accuracy of the graphics (to what extent we don't know).

This is all hypothesizing, hence my question to Luthier.

Wow. Haven't been online for 12 hours and there is a new 15 page thread.

Many thanks luthier for this. It was the only logical way to do it IMO. My faith in CoD and its future is now restored. As soon as I build my new rig, CoD will be on it.

great stuff - have posted before that the team that took us from original il2 to 1946 would do the business for us in fixing things. Sure I would love a perfect game, all the features etc etc on day 1, but I live in the real world so I didn't expect that.
Looking forward to the 31st - 2 Days....BE SURE

This must have been either the greatest marketing blunder or the greatest marketing stunt in the history of flight simulations.

Either way, well done!

Wonderful news that common sense has prevailed. Now the devs can get to work on improved performance and not waste their time on this stupid filter! Great news and my rig awaits the 19th

Amazing. You saved my day! Thanks! That was a really good decision!

Point 1 cleared. Now fix the 9000 other bugs found in the game and make it playable. Then I'll be happy. Not before it's PLAYABLE !
