Refuel and Rearm are not a priority although there is certain value in these features so they might be included in 4.12.

Sorry to say but for me there is still one feature missing. a manual opened Bombbay. All can be steered trough a stick or throttel, but you have "modern"art automatic bay doors???

What are the plans about this feature? You said ideas are welcomed, so here is my again ;) I know there is a "modded" feature, but I want it as an offical release.

Or have you ever seen F-117 like bay doors on a WW2 Bomber?

best regards

So 4.12 is already planned?! Woohoo!

On a related note, it would be cool to have doors that get jammed or torn loose if flying too fast. Additionally, the Betty has no bomb-bay doors at all, and should probably be fixed.

Unrelated, but someone made a mod in which damaging hydraulic lines causes landing gear to fall. (Currently gear simply becomes inop - would be nice if flaps and other components could become inop as well).

Could you guys also look at the DM of the Ki-21 and Ki-27? They seem unusually tough (not empirical, I know, but it is a noticeable trend). Planes like the R-10 are at the opposite end. Probably everything needs some adjustment, especially considering how old some models are, and from how many people they came. It's a wide spectrum and I'm sure the standards and notions of "toughness" have shifted dramatically over time. It would be nice to normalize everything, and make them more accurate.

So thats were my donation for the PE-8 went nice job on that plane PSY!

Did you guys load it up to a modeling 3-D site for sales? like http://turbosquid.com/

It's a measure of the quality of TD's work that I'm looking more forward to their IL-2 patches than CoD.

Great that we finally have the TBD. Long overdue. All we need now is the Curtis SB2-C and Mitsubishi G3M, and we're all set in the Pacific as far as planes are concerned. Maybe the Japanese types that served in China might be included later (the Ki-36 "Ida" and Ki-51 "Sonia")?

The Pe-8 and Il-4 look great.

I really hope TD can find the time to face-lift the Bf-109, MiG-3, LaGG-3, Yak-1,3,7,and 9, and the Il-2 cockpits. The 109s and LaGGs (excluding the already nice La-5 and 7 pits, don't need to touch those!) aren't too bad, but the Yak and MiG pits are plain ugly. Especially the MiG.

I know it's a long shot, but I frequently wish that someday we could see many - if not all - of the conspicuously absent ship types that served in the Pacific, both Allied and Japanese, and also including the Dutch destroyers, cruisers, and subs.

Ok, I'm asking a lot now! :grin:

Fantastic work as always, TD! ~S~

And Repair !!!!

and MDS is of great value not of certain value.

2 things that are huge inovations in IL2

1) ZUTI's MDS
2) Your Beacon Meacon & Radar system

Put them together to work in harmony please don't criple it.

All the best

Very nice work. I am reluctant to ask, but..I have recently installed IL2 1946 and am wondering what would be the fastest way to upgrade the game to include all of your improvements. Does the most recent patch/upgrade include all past changes or is there a string of them that have to be downloaded?
Thanks.

Main and most important features of ZUTI's MDS are already in 4.10. Where have you been? :grin:
Parts of it, that didn't work well, were left out for probably being fixed and included later, such as RRR and multicrew.

If you have installed Il2 1946 you will have V4.07m. You need to download and install V4.08m, V4.09m, V4.10m and V4.10.1m. You need to install them on top of each-other in numerical order. The Mission4Today site has them all. Get them, install them and enjoy!
I almost forgot that there is also an optional skin pack for 4.09m which adds more paint schemes for your 'planes.
