It's here! Here's the readme:
BETA NOTE * RUSSIAN README: Извините, не успеваем перевести! * ENGLISH README: This readme is only partial; * SOUND: Still working on the content for the new engine, but many of the features are already present in this build; * MAPS: No new missions are provided for these in the beta version of the patch. MAIN * Drastically reworked graphic algorithms dealing with in-game color; * Rewrote the sound engine from scratch; * Added three new multiplayer maps: Steppe (medium), Fields (small), and Scimitar (small); * Updated multiplayer GUI to allow users to easily select a position in an existing plane. * Added two new aircraft - Bf. 109 E-4 and Bf. 109 E-4/B. These two are equipped with MG/FF-M cannons and so make use of the famous Minegeschoss. AIRCRAFT - MAIN * Reworked routines for gyro bombsights; * Removed allusion to Engine 4 from He 111 model; * Improved memory consumption for multi-crew aircraft; * Airborne status is now checked correctly even if the aircraft in question departed prematurely; * Landing status should be applied correctly when ditching in water; VISUALS * Reworked bombardier cockpits in aircraft so affected (He. 111 and Ju. 8 ![]() * Small caliber bullet hits on the ground now show difference in material being hit; * Modifications in Blenheim's damage visuals; * Added a range of visual SFX for higher-caliber guns; * New bombsight visuals in Blenheim bombardier's cabin; * Returned the famous Il-2 stall sound effect; * Doubled the distance at which the tracers can be seen. PHYSICS & A.I. * Increased Lotfe bombsight gyro operational limit to 15 degrees of aircraft roll / pitch; * Lotfe type bomb sight now stabilizes aiming platform to horizontal plane; * Removed sudden jump in view angle when viewing through Lotfe ocular and moving bomb sight elevation for the first time in the flight; * Increased side slip input limit to +/* 30 degrees for the Lotfe bomb sight; * Made Kurssteuerung mode 2 for level bombers. This mode will also stabilize the aircraft in level flight; * Reworked motor startup routines to accomodate new options available in the new sound engine; * Adjusted ricochet angles on firm surfaces; * Redesigned bomb sight in Blenheim and made it easier and more realistic to use; * Blenheim bomb sight plane is now adjustable to reflect changes in plane AoA in level flight. Correction is applied automatically over a period of sustained flight and can compensate up to 3 degree changes in plane attitude; * Fixed issue where overstress would inflict damage to airframe regardless of the Vulnerability difficulty setting. NETWORK * Changes to bombs' detonators setup will now be carried over once applied without the need to rejoin the server; * Increased Lotfe bombsight gyro operational limit to 15 degrees of roll / pitch. This will give more tolerance to aircraft maneuvers as strict limits put too much obstacle to communication between bombardier and pilot while playing on-line; * When flying as a bombardier, you should now use "Aircraft - Drop Ordnance (Bombs)" key (instead of "General - Fire Current Weapon" key) to drop bombs. This will remove confusion of on-line bombardier players who could not drop bombs using the key we're accustomed to. AIRCRAFT - MISC. * Decreased bombsight altitude indents by ten times. This will give you more control of the altitude input and make bomb sight aiming more precise; * You can now switch off the boost cut-out control in Spitfires.
