As for sharing my knowledge about the game mechanics and such - I am not able to do so for an obvious reason. And regarding the official mods support. Though, it was said many times before, I'll repeat it once again: It is NOT possible to make IL-2 modding open, while preserving online game integrity and avoiding Oleg's intellectual property violation by mods distribution, without seriously rebuilding the game engine structure. The later IS possible, but costs labor. Labor costs money. In the case of IL-2, it would pure waste of them in a business (or any other, including common) sense. So, why some of you still think, Oleg should do this? |
That makes good sense Saqs. Too late now to open the sim. I'd rather see Oleg open the sim years ago instead of the hack.

Looking at things realistically, doing this was not an option for Oleg's team from the very beginning (original IL-2 release). They did their best to support user's creativity by adding 3rd party models into the game for free themselves. But now, it's over, as every thing in this world ends, sooner, or later. Quote:
Obviously, it is doubtful, that anyone would be prosecuted for this, but in my opinion, distribution of mods (in the said above regard) means showing disrespect to Oleg, his team and their work. So, I don't see any reason, why Oleg, or anyone from his team should show respect to the modders. Particularly, when their work is way far from quality standards, we choose for ourselves. ;) |

This for me is the biggest reason why I dislike the whole mod issue. It is stealing, and is a show of total disrespect for Oleg and his crew. It's like he has to watch people with dull scalpel's, doing surgery on his child |

Well I guess that says it all... except justification of pushing the developer to one side... "I bought many copies", so does that mean you now own the rights to il2? Sorry bud but when the come back is "Hush, man" and "you don't know what you are talking about", it only indicates you know you are wrong in your stance. :-? |
I also fear for this community to become divided, not only "vanilla" vs "Mods/hACKs"
but als Macks vs different Macks. But what i also wanted to say is: The reason for all this is that the developer doesn´t develop anymore for IL2. If there would have been still support to remove the kinks and add missing planes by OM or someone named by him, i mean offically, as a pay-add-on so the workers could be paid, we wouldn´t be in the situation we are right now. Maybe someone, who has OM´s ear, could indicate to him to Quality-control the Macks and sell the packet, if the Builders at i.e. AAA agree, as a pay-add-on where the price shoul be affordable as only the QC must be paid for. That would be good for the community and good PR for OM and his future projects (that we buy anyway) My 2 cents |
Thanks for your input, SaQSoN.
