Sometimes i think if Oleg asked TD guys to delay the patch as a strategy, problably he ll delay SoW and wants to prepare us pyschologicaly. They ll launch 4.10 end of 2010, 4.11 end of 2011, 4.12 end of 2012, and SoW end of 2013.

Completely different game? Hrmm... maybe they are the ones making Halo: Reach then?

Hi DT,

For P-51 & YP-80, we have the K-14 gyro gunsight. Maybe, it will be a good idea to fit P-47 with this device and, still better, to fit last German fighter with Revi EZ 40 or 42 gyro gunsight. There is enough data, by example on http://www.cockpitinstrumente.de/, to do that. Regards.

That was what I was going to say,but I avoided,to preserve my virtual integrity.
An open beta would be nice,and would satisfy we,young pilots,and help TD a lot.

ROFL ..

I'm quite sure TD has plenty of people to beta test, including a final look over by 1C people

I helped run a large beta test of 100 additional people beyond a longer term *core* test team of about 25, when Red baron II ws being made into Red Baron 3D .. it was counter productive in that we really only needed the 25, and only a few of the additional 100 had any disipline in following testing proceedures and reasonable unbiased reporting

Luckily, the only real purpose for the larger group was stress-testing the server-client software, but much time was wasted dealing with so many amatuer *experts* and their unprofessional biases and opinions of flight modeling

TD has only recently gotten 1C tools and utilities to compile the work themselves, this is likely what most of the delay is about

I don't understand the impatience, *beta* 4.09b1 was around for how long ? .. and if it not been for TD, theere likely would have never been an official 4.09m .. not that I play hours per day, but have any of you posting here actually been through all of the additions to 4.09m, much less the mods added to it by the community ?

Frankly, I think it's good we've had a few months of stability and one version of the sim to work from .. 4.10 sounds great and I'm looking forward to features mentioned that will come later in the 4.1x series, however 4.10 will be disruptive also, as 4.09m was disruptive to 4.08m and 4.09b1

So I think the last thing we need is a 4.10b and am certainly willing to wait a few more days or weeks for an official 4.10m

That there is any official support for a sim or any software this old is completely amazing .. After IL-2 1946 4.07m was released, Oleg could have just as easily forgotten about it entirely .. and I don't think anyone would have had cause to complain or ask for more

I only want them to release soon so this rambling thread can be closed .. LOL ..

Nice try but I don't think It will work, try this instead:


Dear Team Daidalos,
Every thursday we go by without the release I will drown a kitten.

Think about it.

The TD upgrades to IL2 are a complete upgrade to the IL2 Core program, not through some add-on tool. They are fully compatible with IL2 and there is an approval process in place with Oleg.

Also, I recently read where there is strong possibility that the New Guinea maps from the Slot team could be included. Don't quote me on this, but the source is reliable.

Note there might also be a few other items that will be part of the 4.10 that aren't being discussed. Why aren't we told? Because with every change there are associated issues, by issues I don't necessarily mean problems.

Oleg was never one to release anything that wasn't fully workable, so this same quality requirement is being monitored carefully for TD upgrades as well.

This is all for our good, and the problems will not be with the upgrade. The problems will arise from users, their systems and mistakes.

You are going to love it, be patient.
