Patch 4.10 - Development Updates by Daidalos Team

[ruxtmp]

Magyar Radio Budapest 1 (Hungarian radio broadcast from Budapest)

Here is a link that has an audio of the interval signal (jingle) towards the bottom of the page 1940 vintage.

http://www.intervalsignals.net/countries/hungary.htm

I approximately represent that (!) will be 4.10 in updating.... There there will be nothing interesting.
In FM it is a lot of errors. If you are interested in correction of errors let know.

You speak Russian? At me it is not so good with English...

You can write everything in Russian, we have people who can translate it so if you think that something is wrong with FM just let us know what it is.

I have a few questions (none have been answered ever in the past, but I am not cynical - yet ):

1. Is it possible to do anything about the engine overheat aspect of IL-2?

As far as I know, cylinder head and water temperature are the one and same on radial engines, and that temperature is used to decide when 'overheat' starts. On water cooled inline engines, the oil-out temperature determines the overheat, nothing else. When overheat occurs, a set timer, specific for that plane, starts to count down, after which the engine dies. People exploit this, the timer in particular.

I don't believe a lot of changes are necessary. For example, randomizing the timer, and randomizing the overheat temperature would probably change things a lot. Also, the absolute temperature of the engine could be allowed to influence the timer (and adds another slight random chance of the engine suffering a failiure of various kinds the higher the temperature is).


2. With the arrival of Prop. pitch for individual engines: possible to also toggle prop pitch auto/manual for each engine?

This is something that of course multi-engine planes like the Bf 110 had. More realistic and useful for damage control.


3. Individual prop pitch and individual engine is coming. Also radiator. Is the radiator control individual, or just one axis controls all engines?

Just another thing that is present in engine management. And makes a difference on managing different engines, especially when one is not functioning 100% right (losing coolant/pressure etc).

The Bf 110 for example has separate oil cooler levers on the left side, in front of the throttle and fuel primer levers. They move up and down slowly when the radiator is changed on each engine (but because of IL-2 engine selection behaviour it is not possible/practical for users to have different radiator settings currently, just like with prop pitch not having been practical until patch 4.10). The 110 also has water coolant radiators which are seperate for the engines as well, but they are not used in Il-2. Not sure what radiators are being controlled actually.

Немного попозже или я или мой коллега(он лучше меня знает ситуацию с ошибками) напишет вам какие ошибки присутствуют в fm.

например у фокке вульфа а-9 , а-8 и f-8 уменьшается мощность двигателя при включении впрыска!!!

Or P47 that doesn't overheat at 7 k+ with max engine power... Or P38s engines able to burn forever without EVER setting the fuel tank on fire, which allows to travel for hundreds of kilometers with a burning engine but overall no consequences on the aircraft.

BRILLIANT ... can't wait. Thanks

(Although I can't read what it says at '6'!)

1. it is possible to do anything, but its very hard to do something useful, realistic and working correctly for all planes in game. Changes to stop exploiting the engines are in the pipeline (but nothing directly related to everheat time). BTW inline engines have water and oil temperature threshold too and both are used to determine overheat.
2. possible, not planned now. We can add them in the future if there will be demand for it. I believe that for example feather prop would have bigger priority .
3. one axis for all engines.

Use the Youtube link on top to get to the site... there you can increase movie quality. In-browser solution of youtube movies is not very good.

А когда выйдет обновление?

Ещё один вопрос косающийся игры: вы поменяете картинки опозновательных знаков? Старые картинки уже страшно выглядят. Они одноформенные и некачественные. И ещё одно- уделите внимание стандартным раскраскам самолётов(!). Например на Bf-109 E4 1940 стандартная раскраска очень маленького разрешения и очень плохо смотрится на самолёте.
