Thanks for the update, but my my concern is can all these problems be fixed, or does one problem create another one? In luithers post last Friday he mentioned that the target and bullet tracers had disappeared since the graphics update. Can you tell me if this has now been resolved or is this still an on going issue aswell?

Love the contrasting paint schemes/frost effect on the IL2s, do you just have the early IL2s or do you have the rear turret version?

IIRC two-seater Il-2s became common from mid '43 on (they started earlier with field mods), so I guess that in BOM we should only see one seater versions...

Thank you for the update. And never be afraid to show new stuff! We're excited for more too.

I think some of us are just a little disappointed that it seems there will be no more new content for Cliffs of Dover. I'm sure the eastern front is a big exciting thing for you guys in Russia, but for me (Canadian of English ancestry) I desperately want MORE for the Battle of Britain. That's the part of the war that makes me sit up and take interest.

Not that I won't be flying IL-2s with happiness, too. I'd just like to maybe fly a Spit V with a glorious new cockpit sometime too :/ Or a Halifax. Or a... you get the picture.

Keep on working guys! We're all pulling for you to pull this off (even the angry guys

)

That looks fantastic. Particularly like the various autumnal colours of the trees in the autumn shots. That's the biggest prob with RoF's autumn map, trees are all one colour..

Snow on roofs?? No loft insulation back then, old chum! And it looks significantly better than old IL2 winter to me.

Once the patch for Cliffs proves to be everything we hoped for, I may even be persuaded to pre-order. I do miss my I-16 and Sturmo!

I guess that field mods were tried quite early, but for the Moscow operations, I'd say that most of the Il-2s were single-seaters.
