Wonder how they got the proper altitudes without knowing the altitude coding table in the game....
looks to me much more like "there should be hills there, so I put hills there... don't care if summit is 500m or 2000m...."

Rama -- Do you know that they don't have the altitude coding worked out, or are you just guessing? You seem to be very negative about these mapping efforts, both here and in the Battle of France thread. These maps look like a very interesting development to me. If Bob suddenly gets released then they will quickly become redundant, that's true, but why does that bother you? In any event the information that's being gathered may end up being used for Storm of War in some way in the future. -- and in the meantime its helping to maintain interest in the IL-2 series.

Interesting that this thread is even allowed here at the official 1C forum,when all talk of modding is not allowed at ubi.
1)Either Oleg does'nt care and is actually interested in some of the stuff being done,or
2)He is looking at what needs to be done to lock it down again.
Because of the time constraints with 4.09 personally I think option 1.

Hehe, sry, but u think Oleg dont mind losing money in the end because of hacked game?

Keep dreaming.

And this drivel about level playingfield for thoose who cant afford expensive pc`s and so on.....horseshit i say.

Sounds like an excuse made by someone who neither have the pations or the nack to learn a game, any game...so he finds any excuse to CHEAT.

Anyone who thinks (i wonder who) hacks levels the playingfield is really running out of excuses. LOL.

Next somone gonna say he needs 16 50 cals on the P-47 because every 2 shots fired gets lost because of lag issues. "Hey the dude with the 8Mgb connection has a unfair advantage...whaaaaa" LOL

If u have low/middle end pc/connection u learn how to deal with it, like i and 95% of everybodyelse does.

What are you talking about Baron? How can Oleg lose money from il2 because of modding?
The only way he could lose is from the no cd /no dvd files out there.I did not see so much complaints from everyone when they became public knowledge,all I saw was 'where can I get them'.

Selling the rights for ex. to 3:rd party developer in the future is pretty much out the window now...wouldnt u say?

I don't know. Was that Olegs plan all along,to open the game to modding anyway? So if that was the case then online would have died officially instead of ,if you believe them all here,unofficially.

Allow me to answer that one for you Uhter...

1) Believe it or not.. 1946 still sells, but i am sure that will stop soon, if not already (who wants to buy hacked sim - raise your hands!)
2) Pulling progamming lead off SOW development - That`s not free either...
3) And possible sale of IL-2 to third party as already mentioned....

Oh yea... and let me remind you for 1000s time... those who think that they know how to mod IL-2 need to stop kidding themselves and others. Modding requires tools and knowledge... everything else is hacking - end of story

No.Where I live sturmo 46 is available freely in the bargain bins.People I know are buying it BECAUSE of the new flyables.
If Oleg has pulled his programming lead off of SoW work to fix 4.09 then that would be interesting news as Oleg has already said he does not have time to fix it.
Last I heard Oleg was not going to release the code to 3rd parties.Obviously you have much more info than we do Ivan,so we must be all wrong and you right.
