I like all the patch.


But there is few things to fixe if possible (if it's easy)

- Smoke need to be longer
- Smoke when there is fire need to be darker (kind of black)
- For the map, it could be nice to have the map on the right corner or be able to move it :

I have to disagree about the color. It looks great right now. Perhaps you're too used to seeing that atrocious smoke for 10 years.

Anyway, you can move the map by clicking with both mouse buttons, and dragging.

Great fun!

No... you are missing the point.

This is an official patch.. It should be installed over a STOCK 4.11.1 .. NOT a modded version. Deactivating the mods does not turn it into a stock version. It is still a modded version playing in stock mode with no mods activated. Hopefully you have a backup.

By now .. and I can't remember how many times I have said this and I know I am not the only one.. but by now every person who flies IL2 should have at least one stock backup. Two if you fly UP/DBW (One 4.10.1 and one 4.11.1 or now 4.12) and a backup of the modded version they fly. Not only that ... before installing any patch it is always advisable to back up yourt stock version. You can always dlete the old backup once you test the newly patched version and make sure it works. Perhaps you can do a restore. That is what I would try first. Don't feel too stupid.. I formatted my backup drive once when my main drive crashed and I was trying to install a new one.. stuff like this happens.. and don't blame TD.. this is all on you my friend.. Good luck.


.. and a heart felt

THANK YOU!!

to TD... ~!S!~

Dude, you have to install over a clean unmodded 4.11.

thx for the tips, but ok for the darker smoke. I understand, but what about longer smoke 4.13m

What about water trails

The new one is amazing for ship. The only problem is that it's doing a straight line

Again...

A CLEAN, VIRGIN, COMPLETELY MOD FREE 1946 installation is required. Not one with mods in stalled. Not one with mods installed but deactivated via JGSME.

Very simple concept.
