Well, if there was this feature i know very well why it changed!
The huge crowd of "ignition, throttle to the wall, start across the field regardless of traffic"-crowd wailed so loud that it was removed.
Also removed were the more realistic torque effects.
All so that the named above people could just so claim to fly full real and not arcade settings.

Its very much like TheGrunch said. Plus there are many many aspects in game, that can be more important than increasing quality of effects. Not every aspects must be considered equaly, onlybecause of 'it had been'.
i.e. it was also in reality, that pilots had to climb into their planes before they could get off, something that is not (or very hardly) possible with the game.

The game is about airwar and thats what is most important. I personally prefer gameplay improvements over atmosphere improvements. If we had a huge team with some bored members, we could adress such easily, but it isn't that case.

What is needed to run the 4.10?
A plain vanilla IL2 1946 dvd install? (just found it in one of my moving boxes)

Will we still have to keep the dvd in for playing? My dvd is spinning insanely loud and I would like to keep it disconnected as much as possible.

Thanks for waking this old sim up again!

You'll want to have 4.08m and 4.09m patches first. Those and the IL-2 1946 original install.

Interesting. It could be done as an option...

Oh, and to totally chnage the subject.

We could use a fixed gear version of the Curtiss Hawk 75 (75 H, M or N for Chinese Air Force and similar models for many other airforces).

I really need a fixed gear Hawk for my pre 1941 Sino-Japanese War scenarios. It was the fastest pursuit type flown by the Chinese until the formation of the AVG (Flying Tigers) that were equipped with their Hawk 81 models. (P-40).

Sorry to ask really, but this has been on my mind for some time.

I didn't know there was a fixed gear type... interesting!

I know what you mean about aircraft being stuck on your mind. I've just "discovered" the history about the Me210 and Me410 (I didn't know that the Ju88 was essentially replaced in many units by the Me410 light bomber version) and I'm realizing that it's an aircraft that saw a lot more use than I had thought and I'd love to be flying one around with a full cockpit and making use of some of the weapons and attachments.

The "Chinese Hawk" 75-H demonstrator aircraft that was paid for personally by Madam Chaing Kai-shek and presented to Claire Chennault for use as his personal aircraft. In service in China it was painted dark green.

Oh man, I know EXACTLY what you are talking about. The Me210/410 was heavily engaged on many fronts and yet it is largely unheard of in flight sims (I think stock EAW may have had an Me410). I'd love to fly the Hornisse with a full 'pit in stock IL-2 .

+1 for the fixed-gear Hawk as well.

Cheers,
