I just feel plain curious, since we haven´t seen any recent 4.10 updates I asume that RL must suddenly be very busy (Having worked on "volunteer" software development myself i have some insight into that, you usually have another job to put meat on the table and a family to tend to, as well as plenty other intrests one has in life like watching the World Cup).

My question is plainly how are things proceeding ?, is all Ok, did you get bitten by "Bugs outa hell" ? Is the team in good health ?

Kind Regards
Hunger
All team is deeply involved in the beta testing

Hi guys, great job you are doing. Just wondering will there be a 4.10 beta or will it be a straight 4.10 release?

+1 on SCW. We have the I-15, older model I-16s, early SB-2 and the R-5. All that we need are two-four Axis aircraft and two-three esoterics (ie. export aircraft that served in SCW but not WWII) and a map!

One of the real limitations of the Il-2 releases is that they lacked small campaigns or missions for aircraft introduced in patches (and often in new versions of the game).

IMHO, it would be great if we had a second team pulling together high-quality missions featuring the new aircraft that could be released as an addition download.

If need be such a team could work one tier behind using the publicly released patch (as opposed to the betas). I think it would add a lot if a 4.09 mission pack was being built to coincide with the release of 4.10.

Almost all my skinning over the years has been 1930's aircraft :D

More SCW would be awesome.

Sounds like something that a team of mission builders could be working on if they were to organize. Or it can happen in a disorganized fashion as well. I know quite a bit of the 4.09 content has already been used. Surely that will happen a few months after 4.10 is out as well. I was personally thinking about a short Hs129 campaign.

The F-86 cokpit is even more!If MiG-15 get a decent cockpit,maybe it can be incorpored into IL2.
Both planes are not made in IL-2 standards. Good looking for you in the first or second look, but the problem lies deeper in the models.

And the F86 cockpit exceedes the given limits so much, thats its not even worth to be considered. Sorry.




EDIT: there is no need of a cockpit for a plane to be incorporated, as you say. It can be AI with an option to get a cockpit later. Just BTW. :)

JC is working on his projects as 3rd party with our help (if needed).
He has more or less close contact to us and we hope his efforts will lead to the implementation of what he likes to bring along, given, that standards are kept of course. Looks good, I'd say.

We are not closing our eyes before the PTO, not at all. Future work will hopefully reorientate more into that direction. But you are right, 4.10 still plays mainly in Europe.

This I can vouch for. I have used many modded cockpits over the years and I have a powerful computer, but this is the first one I have seen that I can say caused visible slowdown for my PC.

I have noticed that JapanCat is making a new version of his A6M visual update. I take it this is to bring it up to DT standards?

Thak you Caspar for keeping the Pacific theater alive.

If I had the ability I would make or fund a new 3D model for the Hawk 81 series, and I hope that someone is working on a P40N for use in China.

The entire China, Burma, India Thertre of Operations is a very neglected "forgotten battle" that has an amazing wealth of plane types, terrain, and campaigns over the entire span of the Second World War, and actually many years prior.

Imagine Curtiss Hawk biplanes flying along side I-15s trying to intercept Japanese Fiat bombers escorted by Ki 27s, or A5Ms?

I drool over the idea.

That's great to hear. As you say, there's plenty of talented and dedicated campaign builders in the community. Keeping your focus on stuff that only TD can do makes sense 100%.
