Patch 4.10 - Development Updates by Daidalos Team

[76.IAP-Blackbird]

I have to add that I love those small details like the bulletbelt in the Avia or the open window mechanism modeled in the DXX. TEAM DAIDALOS add so much attention to small but very cool details and I think the comunity loves it!! Damn good work keep it coming!

Keep up the good work.

Questions:

1. Regarding the 3d models and cockpit views: What models are used exactly from the cockpit view?

A seperate for the internals only, and everything not inside is the regular exterior model just seen up close? I have been wondering if there is any way to increase the detail, especially on the textures, of the plane seen from inside the cockpit. The engines in twin engined planes tend to look especially rough, like the Bf 110.

An effort to somehow prioritize exterior details for the areas which are seen from inside the cockpit would raise the graphics more than many other possible updates.

2. What is the word on Twin Throttle support? I don't mind lacking radars, but I do have a G940 and a quadrant, with a huge itch towards flying those twin engined heavy fighters.

Timeline is strictly Team Daidalos. Nothing to do with Maddox Games's plans at all.

S!

Good to see IL-2 is not dead New additions look very nice. Are there any plans on updating the graphics card and sound card support in any way in upcoming patches? Thank you for the continuing support Team Daidalos!

Another question. Will the instruments on the engine nacelles be visible from the cockpit?

Loadouts should be:

4x SC50 centerline on single ETC 50s

1x SC250kg (Romanian units)

or

MK 101
MK 103

All with the option for 2x SC50 (one per wing)

Thanks for improve IL2

Looks like FMB+... I hope this works then (because the mod doesn't in my case).

Anyway, I want suggest the possibility to save and load object groups. It would be great if we could do so because this makes it possible to re-use certian groups like artillery positions, AAA nests etc in several missions plus we could share them for others. That would make the upgrade perfect.

[QUOTE=csThor;136693]Actually, regarding the Hs 129 B-2, a good number of currently available loadouts should be deleted because they aren't historical (that doesn't work, though, due to bad experiences with the IAR 80/81 way back). The BK 3,7 is among them as is the loadout with the 4x 7,92mm MG17 and the SC 250 as no evidence for their use on the front has come to the light so far (and people far more knowledgable on the subject than us looked). In the case of the Bk 3,7 it's interesting to note that tests were aborted very early as the cannon (or rather the gondola installation) had a very ugly effect on plane performance so the Hs 129 kept using Mk 101 and Mk 103 (from early 1943 on) autocannons for tank busting.[/QUOTE


What about the B3, is that not going to be flyable then ?

Thank you DT, Horrido!
