+1

I'd love to see updated models for the P-40E and M and I'd love to see a N with the lightweight option. The Helldiver would be extra cool and I can't see the Hawk 75 being a huge problem... model is already in the game and a pretty good one I think at that.

I was wondering will any members of the patch team give any idea of the aircraft planned for inclusion in 4.11 over and above what was seen in the video.
I hear fiat G.55, a few new french planes are planned in this patch as well as the bombers. it would be nice to have an idea of whats to be added.

(cough cough...) bi directional minimap...

API rounds added to 50 cal load out..

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~

+1 all the way especially for the mig-3

Can you upgrade the spitfire damage models to like the same level as the tempest.

Hello!
Before anything else I want to congratulate the team of Daidalos, for excellent work in patch 4.10.1 ;)

I would like to know of the possibility of a change in FMB. I wish I could change the speed of cars and tanks, as is already done on ships. Without this modification is impossible to make huge columns of cars moving because they just run over.

I look forward to more news. I know it's not easy for you to handle it alone but I hope you understand that I love this game and want a constant evolution.

I only have one more request to make. Put news more often, may be little, getting no news is horrible!

and MDS is of great value not of certain value.

I was not talking about MDS, only about refuel and rearm ( but it would be interesting to know what exactly is MDS ) and I still stand by my opinion that rearm and refuel have certain value in improving the realism of the sim.

It is only certain value IMO because scenarios where refuel and rearm can be used in realistic way are limited. OTOH repair have very low realism value. It belongs to racing sims (even there only minor damage can be repaired in short time) not to flight sims. Sitting in the cockpit while your plane is repaired in couple of minutes is total arcade.

Anyway, this is update thread and if we have to discuss RRR than it would be best to start new thread.

... but a free addon/patch is not making any money... and as far as I know making money with these models is what's the problem.

AFAIK it would be possible to add NG planes but somebody would have to pay fees to NG. As we are making patches for free than I'd say that it's easy to understand that we are not too enthusiastic to "burn" money that way.

I second this, especially the P40-N and the others too of course.

~S~

Can you make the MiG-9M, which featured an ejection seat and RD-21 engines, the RD-21 being an afterburning variant of the RD-20 / BMW-003. It should be quite easy since you already have the model. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mikoyan-Gurevich_MiG-9
