Ha ha ha ha ha! Pffffwhuahahahahahahaha!!!

Anyway, sometimes after flying some time, all the sound effects change slightly, as if the pilot's ears get slightly locked due to altitude change. Maybe the pilot eventually swallows, because everything starts sounding normal after awhile. I can't rule out something being wrong with my headphones or speakers etc though.

Then there's another small bug when watching a track. When you pause and unpause a couple of times, the sound volume may change.

If you don't have anything nice to say then don't say anything at all on here.

You fly the game your way, and let others fly it how they want to.

You don't hear us belittling the skins you created and use online

Thank You

Ah yes, that old bug wich keeps everyone busy.
Although i know that playing too agressive can make you an easy target for others.

This is a bug report for IL-2 version 4.12.2m. It concerns the new Taxi-to-Runway feature. I tested this bug in Single and Coop missions as well as running the mission through the FMB. I found the bug only appeared in Coop missions.

The bug: If you have a Coop mission with one or more planes using the Taxi-to-Runway feature AND you uncheck the 'Takeoff and Landing' setting, all of those particular planes will fall to the ground and explode...or at least be smashed to bits.

If you try this test as a Single mission, you will find no problems. All the planes using the Taxi-to-Runway feature will start on the ground in their proper positions. The same goes for the mission if you run it through the FMB.

It should also run the same in Coop mode but does not. This is where the bug occurs. All planes with Taxi-to-Runway waypoints will start in the air (see screenshot #1) and immediately fall to the ground (screenshot #2).

So to repeat, the bug is in Coop missions with 'Takeoff and Landing' unchecked (light off) and affects all planes with Taxi-to-Runway waypoints.


*To be frank, I don't believe this will impact very many players. Personally, I play with 'Takeoff and Landing' enabled 99.9% of the time. It was just by a lucky fluke that I came upon this issue. However, it's still a legitimate bug and I'm hoping that TD will address it at some point.

Do I have to download the dedicated server update???...do not really go on line much.

You must have installed it in the wrong folder.
When starting the installer choose the destination folder of your Il2 installation.
You can also unpack the patch into any folder and then copy the files into your Il2 folder.
Another possibility is that you don't have write permission in the destination folder. Typically this happens on newer Windows operating system (newer than XP) if you have the game installed in Program Files (and similar) folders. You can safely copy the whole game to some other folder you create (c:\game\il2) folder for example, cause the game does not rely on any registr settings.
The installer is just an archive of files; no messing with registry or anything like that.

Thanks Microwave,always had problems with rar files...it did show it was downloading to the right folder , guess it was not...your first suggestion worked...downloaded to a new folder and copy and paste. You the man...thanks again

Note...why will it not have permission when all the other updates installed OK

I think the question that answers this question is: Is your game installed in the default directory or did you move out out of Program Files into another folder? Most of us if not all have moved it from the default install directory years ago. The patch installer will default there but you need to manually redirect. My guess is that you forgot to make the change and the files tried to go to Program Files (and silently failed). I forget things all the time thus why I suggest this is possible

Nothing is different with the 4.12.2 RAR extractor so the various other complications are where the answer is.
