But now never mind IL2 is a waste of time right?
Last ask for me is:
Can u assure us that there is an original il2fb.exe check in 4.09, so that all users with not original file installed cant join online?

Thx fot answer

Yes, they sounds nice in small speakers, but they are not binaural.

Will virtual pilot still be limited by 50lbs pull on the stick or two handed pulls will be possible?

About FM itself...I've heard about various effects of weather on the plane, but is(I'm pretty sure it is but I hope for some details ) FM itself further improved from present il2 state?
I've heard rumors that we will literary have to learn to fly from scratch...

Thx in advance

Pilot: Ebven charachter of pilot will be modelled. Fatigue as well.

50 Lb is really for two hands as a midle force with which possible to pilot aircraft still in the frame that to do not chrash...

FM isn't the thing that you need to learn again. Some differences in complex situations... but in general fly the same or very close to what is. It will be different in details and more adjustable for different aircaraft types.

I was really impressed when I got a newer sound card. Il-2 is very good for 2001! I am sure you will be happy with BOB.

Oleg, I had an idea for SOW scripted campaigns:
- In the briefing or debriefing one could be given options to choose from
- These would lead to additional briefing text or, alternatively, they would activate scripts in the upcoming mission (to make small changes).

This would allow campaign builders to give the player the ability to do things like:
- ask predetermined questions during the briefing
- suggest a wingmen needs to be grounded for some rest (effecting their AI level in the upcoming mission)

It should be easy to do. The technology has existed since the late 1970s.

Oleg,

I was wondering if changing the view position using 6DOF will move the pilot's body as well? In real life pilots often tried to hide behind the airplanes engine when attacking bombers.

I also forgot to say thank you! Il-2 has been instrumental in generating interest among people in the west about the Great Patriotic War/Great Domestic War and has also given us a chance to fly a Mig-3.

In your debt,

-Avimimus

Oleg considering "the end of life for IL2", this sound mod would be great in 4.09, at least as option. We undertsand the luck of time but sound mod is really a great addition.

Thank for your answers and your time..

[BigSkill]

Regarding 4.09:

Can u assure us that there is a check on the il2fb.exe so people that havn't original version cant join online sessions?
In this way we can play IL2 until release of BOB anything cheaters.

Thanks for taking the time to answer questions here Oleg, it is very much appreciated.

So here are mine:

1. Will radio navigation be included and what maps will you have in game?

2. Will icing on the wings be considered?

3. WHAT will change on the engine (and fuel) management side?

I just want to clarify that a simple 'Yes' or 'No' would be absolutely fine with me ''.

So, can you please give us a little hint on this subject?

Hi Oleg,

Thank you for answering my question about the format of the SOW .mis files.

New Question: Pilot Acknowledgments
When flying online, it would be good to be able to acknowledge your fellow pilots when up close by being able to...

• - wave
  - give a thumbs up
  - salute

Will this be possible in SOW?

Thank you in advance,


Flying Nutcase
