It's just that the video cuts before the low-altitude bomb fuse delay expired. It takes 14 seconds from bomb impact (which we see in the video) to detonation when using the low altitude fuse. (using the high altitude one the bombs don't explode at all, not enough "falling time" to arm themselves).

Never used a beta patch before. Thanks for any answers in advance. 
And of course the sounds in the vid are awesome. All in all I really like what I am seeing there. |
Official patches are downloaded via Steam. Beta patches are distributed by links given out in a thread similar to this (posted by Luthier and stickied by the mods) and they are usually compressed archives using the .rar format.
What you do is download it on your PC and then extract it into the main game folder (steam\steamapps\common\il2-sturmovik cliffs of dover). It will ask you to overwrite already existing instances of some files, allow it. If for any reason you want to roll back to the previous official (non-beta) patch, simply running a file verification through steam will detect the altered files and replace them with the last known "approved" configuration as per the latest official patch.
