It is interesting to read all the requests.

IMO, it would be good to get a final 4.09 with a final set of dlls, and the ability for IL2 to be playable as standard on 4.09 online servers.

@ nearmiss

I look forward to this as well, 4.09b1m has been great for online, but a *final* would clear some confusion, and there are some squads and individuals that will not use a version unless it's *final* and "official".
The popular downloads for 4.09b1m include many unofficial items that can cause trouble for the user.

@ Daidalos Team

Please, if at all possible, include the recon triggers with 4.09. In my opinion, they would be a truly important change to IL-2 1946 that all players would enjoy more so than any particular plane addition, new map or other improvement proposed

All the work you are doing seems good and worthwhile, however the idea of new objectives in mission building and the gameplay is fantastic :cool:

We are thinking about all of the things you mentioned.

Like I said in my previous post, we have contacts with RL pilots and Oleg's FM tester (former fighter pilot) is helping us. We are not afraid to change things but we need solid proof before we do anything.

Good example is Spit E retention, I'm yet to see any proof that something is wrong with it, in fact when I compared it with NACA test of Spit ( TBH we don't have that variant in game but I used closest one we have) I was losing more E than in RL test so I doubt that something is very wrong with Spit but I might be wrong.:)

There is no special code for Axis aircraft in game, what happens to Axis planes happen to Allies too. keep in mind that graphics doesn't show exact damage and few holes in wing could represent much serious damage than you think.

We didn't plan that but we might take a look, if it is easy enough we might do something about it but this will not be very high on our priority list.

No Triggers in 4.09, 4.09 is basically done and only some minor things have to be checked before release.

Triggers will be released in later patch together with other changes to AI, we are making very big changes there and it is not possible to release some parts separately when they full functionality depend on many other things.

Big changes... Mmm.... Waiting for BoB has now been replaced by waiting for 4.10 - nice with some variation in the agony :)

It will be possible to have a place as co-pilot and another to handle the level of the bombing Watch, as it existed in reality.
Thank you for your work

Sera posible tener un lugar como co-piloto y otro para que maneje la Mira del bombardeo a nivel , como existio en la realidad.
Gracias por su trabajo.

He is asking for including in bombers a seat for a human co-pilot and another for a human bombardier, who would operate the bombsight, as in real life.

Charrua, you already have the bombardier available in IL 2 bombers. Just switch positions from pilot to bombardier and then open the bombsight, using the appropiate configurated keys. Copilot could be possible only for bombers like Liberator, B-17, B-29, but not He-111 or Pe-2, for instance

If you look for in Il2Mania web site you can find some good bombing tutorials to operate the bombsight, german and russian.

My 0.02 € : to have the navigator seat available for humans could be also interesting in future add-ons, so long range flights in "blind" conditions (night, bad weather) could be also possible. Specially, related to the future possible navigation radars, like H2S.


Charrua, ya tienes en IL-2 la posicion del bombardero disponible y puedes operar la mira de bombardeo. Simplemente cambia de posicion del piloto a bombardero y abre la mira usando las teclas que tengas configuradas para ello. El copiloto seria posible en aviones de bombardeo como el Liberator, B-17 o B-29, pero no en el He-111, por ejemplo.

En la web de IL2Mania tienes buenos manuales de operación para utilizar las miras de bombardeo tanto alemanas como rusas

OMG! 4.09 has a Sparrow Hawk! My malta campaign will be complete! ..

What i would like to see later in IL2 is flyable Hampden, great story on these in latest "Aeroplane" mag.

The multi-player He111 sounds fun .. but can the belly gunner urinate on the rear wheel before takeoff, for luck? LOL!

I was looking the you tube video on the 110 radar and at the end it zoom in on to the instrumentent panel.
I know from have all the IL2 game and there one thing that it has not done well is zoom in or out . It does in stages and from what it look like on the video clip (2:57 mark)is that you were using trackir.
If so does this mean that when the Bf 110g4 come out well get 6DOF

I am a member of a large bombing group.
We often fly bombers in historical formations.

We experience terrible problems with the AI gunner's friendly fire.
Often we lose six or more out of twenty bombers by friendly gunner fire, despite
keeping correct distances, staggering the VICs and not having any planes on
the six of any other planes.

In the B25 we even have to resort to turning off the waist gunners before missions.

Perhaps Team Daidalus would like to consider preventing the AI from targeting
fighters that are behind friendly planes and any other instances of friendly fire.

Thankyou for your consideration of the matter.

Comrade Cazador I think you misunderstood my question.
Use the views and level bombing.
My question goes beyond that, I mean the flight Co-op, with more complete human crews.
In nuetra squad do that kind of flight, as referred to, with observadors and stuff.

Camarada Cazador creo que has entendido mal mi pregunta.
Uso las miras y el bombardeo a nivel.
Mi pregunta va mas alla de eso , me refiero al vuelo coperativo, con tripulaciones mas completas de humanos.
En nuetro escuadron hacemos ese tipo de vuelo, como el que hace referencia , con observadors y cosas asi.
