4.12 & 4.12.1 Appreciation Thread
 

THANK YOU TD for this great patch

A lot of things have been fixed/added and I'm LOVING IT

First off, the .50cal bullet/vapor trail is EXCELLENT. I can feel the .50 cals now and can actually hit targets more like I would with 20mm armament


The smoke and engine fire effects are really realistic. . Almost looks like something from a ww2 guncam lol. Well done!



MACH RELATED DRAG is SUPERB!!!!. FINALLY planes like the P-47 have their dive advantages. I completely dusted a spitfire in a dogfight today which is how it should be when diving with a P-47.

Loving the new GUI interface also. Looks way prettier


Also REALLY looking forward to a custom sound-pack once someone makes one.

Again 4.12 is excellent. Thank you for a job well done



Team TD you really should have your own website with a donation button, I'm pretty sure the entire Il2 community would contribute

Haven't explored much yet, but the engine startup smoke is fantastic!

TD can't take any money, but if TD guys, individually or collectively, have a favorite charity, let us know. I'd be happy to contribute. You guys ought to get something more for your work other than our whines, complaints, and occasional praise. ;-)

PS You guys can PM me if you prefer.

EDIT: As an example, there was a great program at Mission4Today to contribute to "Make A Wish, International" when Joppe, a respected member of our community lost his battle to cancer at the too young age of 19. "Make A Wish" got him a flight in a P51 shortly before his passing.

Seriously, I don't think enough praise can be heaped on these guys. They certainly deserve more than our gratitude, that's for sure.

Why can't they accept donations with something like a paypal donation button..that's something completely separate from the game, 1c, maddo games, and Oleg

I agree.. I tested this out in the P-47 and I was amazed.. No more having Zeroes catching me in a dive in my Corsair.. The P-47 seems to handle better IMO.. I need to make some more stick adjustments for the Corsairs and the Mustang though.. Do the hit effects on the wings seem to be a bit too strong to you? I took a hit on myh wing in a Mustang from a 109 and I was sent into a roll along my roll axis of almost 180 degrees.. at various times it has been a little less but in 4.11.1 this was not the case... The plane would dip from the impact .. but not like it does now.. Has anyone else noticed this..

Artillery spotter??? Artillery skills levels? ah? easter egg DT!?
