Wotan
It was confirmed in the interview at SimHQ (link):
guod: Will an updated dedicated server be released as well?

Oleg: Yes, an updated dedicated server will be available with the v4.09 release.

Your responses always tend to follow the below definition verbatim.

I suggest you think about what you are saying, your contributions to this forums are ?????

Cynicism
  1. An attitude of scornful or jaded negativity, especially a general distrust of the integrity or professed motives of others: the public cynicism aroused by governmental scandals.
  2. A scornfully or jadedly negative comment or act: "She arrived at a philosophy of her own, all made up of her private notations and cynicisms" (Henry James).

Forums are generaly used for debate, in order to have a debate or to discuss then all opinions and points of view have to be considered otherwise there would not be a discussion. Most of what I have posted here as turned out be true despite being flamed and called a whiner.

but do what you must if you really feel it that important.

Your logic is greatly flawed Tree

That some forums are for debate of a subject, does not mean this forum is. This forum appears to be to ask questions to TD and recieve answers .. no debate involved ..

also, a debate on a subject does not mean "all opinions and points of view have to be considered" .. almost all debates and discussion have rules and protocol to follow or they are not effective, or end up in flame war, or in real life, violence

TD

It's great to see some interaction with the community and willingness to discuss additions and changes to the game.

Fantastic and I think it will go a long way for the community.

I have yet to comment but I've been watching the boards to see what will come of some of your efforts.

It was mentioned before… a lot of contention is brought up when discussion airplanes and changes specific to FMs and DMs. Some of which has been researched with documents yet we haven’t seen any proposed changes or discussions about them.

Instead of adding new content which I think is needed I would like to see some work done on some rather nagging issues for some time now. Now that you have Oleg's ear I'm curious as to what he thinks about the following issues.

P38s suffering compression problems 10k a below. I and others have well documented well published information regarding the compression problems with the 38s yet the plane still suffers from early onset of the problem. If you need documentation I will get you several sources on the subject.

FWs Anton series suffers a Fuel Leak Bug that doesn’t reseal and can empty a full fuel load in a couple minutes. It’s the only plane in the game that has this problem.

P51 Wing Shedding. Historically accurate for the earlier models but later corrected if you need documentation just say so.

6 gunned 50 Cal armed planes still suffering from accuracy problems. Not sure if it’s still an issue with harmonization or the recoil. Most of the platforms where very stable gun platforms. Not sure why it’s an issue with these planes.

Several Planes having the ability to break Mach in a Dive. P47, Dora and Tempest come to mind…

F6F seems to suffer engine performance. Not living up to his RL counterpart.

Cement Elevators added to the Late War 109 series that don’t have a logical explanation.

No German Ground Attack rocket capabilities

Controls Lost due to damage doesn’t range across all the planes. Anton which had push rods can suffer all three axis with a single strike. Maybe taking out one control surface might be something to consider for future DM revisions

There are plenty of leftovers from 4.08 that need to be address IMO way before new content should be addressed.

Hi,
it seems that some time ago at Sukhoi.ru forum there was a discussion about what is wanted by the gamers.

There was a good number of seemingly-reasonable and apparently-easy-to-implement suggestions, like changing motors or armament to produce the transitional plane types.

E.g.
Bf109G-4 - 3D model of G2+ motor overheating+weight 3000 - 3100 kg
FW190D-11 - D9 with 2x13 mm MG replaced by 30 mm MK
Yak-1PF/1942 (3D and DM of Yak-1/1941 + 105PF motor)

...

Did anyone by chance look through these suggestions?


----------------------------------------

My own principal wishes will include:

a) changing the Il-10 armament, at least supplying it with 4*FAB-50+4*ROFS-132 or M-13 (it is historical, AFAIK), since present Il-10 is a very seriously handicapped attack plane;

b) introducing the new (or mutating old) field airstrips into something as in the sketch attached - green is part which is exposed on a level surface, blue is a "security area" normally "submerged", red plaques are the airplane "birth" sites.

Such airstrips will totally eliminate the headache of looking for the level spaces to place three runways side-by-side as it is done now - if you want to have a decent airfield. It will breathe a new life in almost all maps.

If it could be partially damaged (to prevent take-off), say by 10 tons of bombs - it would be absolutely fantastic.

WBR, Salsero.

Other suggestions to follow.

Capt Stubbing you said:

Are you saying these aircraft could exceed Mach 1 in a dive in Real life ? If so is there documentation to support this ?

With regards P38 compressibility are you saying its happening at too high an altitude and too low an airspeed or that it shouldn't be happening at all below 10,000 feet.
In reality it is a straight out Mach number issue with recovery G also being a variable.

Regarding P51 Wing shedding are you referring to Speed/aerodynamic affects (like air getting into the wing structure and ripping it apart) or Structural loss via Over G ?

Exclamation

One more thing.
As I have understood, 4.09 will be available for free.
Maybe you could at least set up the donations website (via PayPal would be nice).
Please consider doing so, I would rather donate 10 quid than know that there will be no more patches.

I didn't say that this is true of real life.... This is possible in the game though

Let me look it up but the bird any version shouldn't suffer any problems below 10k. This is old stuff but I know for sure all the 38s we have suffer way way too early in terms of speed. Again let me get some numbers put together for you. These are based on the copies of the manuals I have.

Yeah not talking about exceeding Vne but talking about pulling any sort of G at certain speeds will rip the wing off. This was a problem with some of the early versions but it shouldn't be an issue in the later D models
