The majority of the flight-sim-crowd knows that no programming can make up-to-date-hardware redundant and buys accordingly.

Same is for win7/64.

To invest in a shrinking (dying) market (Win XP and obsolete hardware) is throwing money away.

Unfortunately the horse has already left the barn.To stop XP and DX9 support now would certainly alienate all those that have already bought it and are running it to the best of their abilities.

Maybe there should be a Clod poll(maybe there already is one and I missed it) asking what OS is being currently used.

Dropping XP And DX9 support might be okay for a future paid addon.That way the user can read the specs on the box and know what to expect and make a decision on whether to upgrade his/her OS.

I have no programming knowledge so I am just throwing this question out there.
Just as some programs have both a 32 and 64 bit exe for the install would it be possible to do the same for XP and W7?

@Luthier. Are you using the 3gb switch in XP boot.ini? Maybe it will help with desktop crashes. Cheers.

so.. you would quietly accept that only real progress between these two patches should only be some brighter colors?

for a month of code development?

really?!!

Love the game but glad its not that important to me to stress over.

Thanks for the update on the update...errr beta update.

Well things are a little diff over there...maybe the XP users just aren't updating their systems for whatever reason...maybe they run some of the much older SIMS...

I updated to a new rig because of CLOD and A-10... otherwise I could have continued IL2 46 UP modded on my old machine.. have to say it is awesome on this new rig...

Curious what the plans are for Multiplayer and a fix for the Channel Map so we can Fly some COOP missions. Yep.... AI that actually have Artificial Intelligence would be a big improvement

Flame me all you want, but this is my first time venting like this on this forum. Just terrible.

Its definitely not terrible, its more like a miracle this development was even released. Atleast now we have a chance that the sim will be finished, instead of flying IL-2 1946 for another ten years. Your minimal investment in the new IL-2 series will help the new series develop into something far beyond what we had with the original series.

Really...IL2 46 and UP Modded version ... so far it is holding up pretty good... it kicks arse against anything else at the moment...Another 10 years? yah I could see that.

Interesting thought....you get to tell your grand kids and their kids you were a Beta tester for this SIM... as was the entire community...

Actually it has come a long way and I am enjoying it now... Performance greatly improved.... AI and MP fix would do it for me...

oh yeah...am I the only one that has trouble steering a spit on the ground? No prob with other planes..yes my rudder works and no the brakes arent on... did try that too though

I think you both make very good points. 1C should sell what they have completed to Lucas Arts. They are rumored to be doing a "Redtails" movie. They have the resources and the management to finish this in a timely manner.

This would get to a better planeset, away from the early war trainers in BOB.

Awesome, thanks, can't wait

CloD came out a year and a half ago? Did i get sucked into a vortex?
