Anyway Zorin, we have an internal rule in our team that whatever we decide to do, we deliver at one point. We have started working on 4.09 in the end of 2008 and the public announcement was done over 6 months later (after first beta testing that proved to be solid) in the end of July. That's only 2 months ago. We did not mention any dates on purpose in order to avoid speculations. And don't forget, it's a hobby for us, not a paid job. We are developing it, but we are also the customers.

The problem is that people can never be pleased. You either don't give enough information or you give too much information. Great, so make your choice. People have been wondering and asking how we stand with 4.09 release. I think it was normal and polite to reply to them honestly and with our best estimate. That's what we are trying to do in this thread. If it is an information overload for you and would like to be kept "in dark", well you can always just skip this thread.

And yes, I am just that Slovak guy with only "empty promises" who by the way has modelled about 100 new buildings for Slovakia map. And I am a patient person I suppose.

I belive it is obvious that I have not questioned the quality or workload here. The only thing I wanted to point out is:

1. It is good to show people the work you do.
2. Answer all their subject related questions to any extend you deam sufficient.
3. NEVER give any estimates on a release as you can't guarantee them.

It is that simple and will save you from a lot of so called whinning. I never made my posts because I was expecting something, my only intention was to show that these premature estimates lead absolutely nowhere.

Do me a favour guys, will you?

Don´t piss off the developers who invest their freetime in order to ensure our favourite hobby stays a live!

Its obvious that the developers have done a terrific job, the only road block now it seems is Oleg, he has been very busy of late so we are told, so busy that even posting here or adding any updates has been out of the question, whether he can find time to read a 132 page doc is another matter, hopefully he can.

Some info if possible:

- Mk.Vc cockpit's bug has been fixed?

- Could we have officially in the next update Bf-109F4/B and may be a G-10 20mm (not a U4)?

- Could we have Zorin bombs and fuel tanks included as official update?

The Readme/Guide has been posted. I hope we can quit the discussion about it. Thank you.

The patch will be available in a reasonable period of time. I know a more precise date, but I will not inform on it since it may turn against us if it is 1 day later.

LOL, I guess the downloads put the server to the knees. Ok, links removed for a short period of time. We need to make mirrors first. Sorry.

@Veltro: If you have specific suggestions, please send them to daidalos.team@gmail.com

It is difficult to go all over boards and collecting suggestions. That's why we have setup this email account.

Thanks.

ROFLMAO!!

Oh how mankind has evolved!

I expect the patch is published and not a minute late or I shall haunt you for the rest of your natural lives! <please insert evil laughter here>

Ok, anyway, thank you guys for all the work.

Can we install it over 4.09 beta? Thanks for the work!

[4./JG53_Wotan]

Sorry if I missed it but was there any mention of the dedicated server software being updated to 4.09? If will will it be released at the same time as the client release?
