As far as I know there is in the campaigns.

I think he means that you can enable stuff like the 3d gunners through conf.ini. As far as I know that only produces gunners, but not ground crew. Strangely enough I did spot a recent LOMAC mod which enables this for that sim.

I know about the conf.ini. I'm talking about BoB.

There have been hints that there will be a very comprehensive rearming and refueling in BOB SOW. I know Oleg has said that he is modelling the human skeletal frame. Some BOB modellers have also hinted that it could be implemented.

I know that rearming and refueling was an integral part of the Battle of Britain with pilots doing multiple sorties on a frequent basis. Some of the turn around times were very short and could be implemented as a variable time option to suit most players tastes.

I remember Oleg wasn't a big fan of implementing it in the IL-2 series but not sure if it was the amount of work required or the reality of it. I got my fingers crossed that it will be a optional feature in the SOW series.

I'm wondering about one other thing. How far has BOB2 Wings of Victory influenced SOW BOB?

[Chivas]

Not much, but I'm sure Oleg has looked at what WOV has to offer. SOW's new combat flight engine should be far superior to Rowans old engine. Unless the few people that are working on WOV can get a better handle on the Rowan code and significantly upgrade it.

That being said...all the features that Oleg intends to implement in the SOW series will take considerable computer power and/or a very streamlined game engine. My guess is.... that this may be the major stumbling block to getting BOB out the door.

We should have a better idea on the progess shortly.

Dear Mr. Maddoks!

First I would like to thank you, and yours комманду programmers for Ил-2. I consider that this as this наилучше in the world. In the second I would like to ask you about the Bean. When will appear in shops? Any information was excellent.

Thanks for attention.
