Oleg Maddox's Room #2 QUESTIONS & REQUESTS TO OLEG ABOUT BOB SOW

[wespe578]

Would it be possable to allow the pilot to select the order in which he drops his bombs?
The reason that I mention this is, as the game plays now, the Bf110 drops it's center bomb load and then it's wing-mounted bombs, while the Stuka drops it's wing bombs, then it's center bombs.
This forces the player to pick which plane to fly based upon the type of targets he faces and the order in which he needs to hit them.
If you could, Sir, could you make it possable for the player to be able to "key" which bombs drop first?
Ex: Hit key "x" and then press bomb release key, or hit key "y" and then press bomb release key.

For online play, option to disable "join blue team if blue have already 2 players more than red"...for all colors of course...just an option for server owners...?

BOSS,
about display-card compatibility
Will your new series run well with ATi-card?
You know, many game crash reports on using ATi-card in IL-2,and as far as I know,it is still happening with the new updated 4.09m patch.And it is "wellknown" that ATi do have some compatible problems of their Drivers.
It makes me confused,which is the root cause?The IL-2 programme or the ATi driver?
You know I surely will rebuild a new PC for your new series.
And I'm still hesitant about which one to choose,ATi or Nvidia.(actually I like ATi more than Nvidia,but too many bug report...)

Will there be a weapon view ? That is a view from the bomb, rocket or torpedo. (I did a quick search but couldnt find any reference)

Hi BOSS,
If possible,may be you can do some improvements in the area of pilots view.(I have mentioned it in another post.I don't know if you have read it.)
As you may know,the area of Mods is in a state of confusion.Different Servers use different Mods.I can throw away all of them except some view controlling softwares.So,I think,if you can do something...I am inclined to have a pilots view software by your own team's development,a long term development project which gives a new view of the pilots view.As far as I know,there are FreeTrack,NewView,and 6DoF_Mods,may be you can develop a powerful one intergrating all of their functions.
What I want is,in brief,
every time I play your game,I can use only one pilots view software,join different Servers without "crt=2" problems,and the one itself is a powerful and Work in Improvement one.

Best wishes.

The Birds of prey graphics are very amazing compare to Il-2 forgotten battles. But I think ( and hope) Storm of War will be THE best.

Now that I have your attention. I need buy a videocard, I have a Quad 9400, a OCZ P&Cool 750W and a Samsung P2350 23" and I was compared GTX 285 or 295 whit ATI 5870… the thing is that Ati 5870 work with DirectX11 (AND THE pice is more low).
What do you think and recomend???
for another way, GTX 275 and ati 4890 are in low pices compared to July 2009, but are ald for the """INCOMINGG 2010"""

Z, I'd go with the HD 5870. Its only just come out so the drivers should add a small improvement (+/- 10% est) as time goes on. It runs cooler, eats less power than the others listed and at this time is the only one of the bunch capable of DX11, I believe SOW will have a DX11 option. The only downside is they are extremely hard to come by ATM but since SOW doesn't come out anytime soon you have time to save up. Though there is no news whether or not SOW will be X-Fire capable.

Don't worry. It is already better here in every detail.

About hardware i don't tell currently anything. I'm worring if I will give some incorrect suggestion, then we may change something....

If there will be no contradiction to the tracks play - then yes. It is working now partially.
