The texture of maps is also controled by one small text file. Just replacing some variables may bring us to a brand-new world. I can't say the new IL2 will outperform BoB. But I'm sure it is good enough to make a great deal of money in a very short time.

KOTS dropped the IL-2 engine and are developing their own more advanced engine. Apparently BOP only used some of the IL-2 FM and also use their own engine. I don't know what IIRC is, but since you got the rest wrong, I doubt it uses the IL-2 engine either.
