Please add widescreen support in the next patch. It's not nice to have those black strips in 1920x1080.

Although the game does lack true widescreen support, you can eliminate the strips by modifying the Config.ini:

Code:
[window]
width=1920 <-manual entry
height=1200 <-manual entry
ColourBits=32
DepthBits=24
StencilBits=8
ChangeScreenRes=1
FullScreen=1
DrawIfNotFocused=1
EnableResize=0
EnableClose=1
SaveAspect=0 <- removes the back bars
Use3Renders=0
Do not open the video settings area in IL-2 after you do this as it will overwrite these changes back to an IL-2 default.

The only problems with this are that the speedbar, comms menu, and map will continue to be rendered in a 4:3 aspect but I find that a small annoyance.

Is there a way to implement 3D support (shutterglasses)? That would boost interest in IL2-FB.

Ability to use 2048x2048 textures on aircrafts, objects and terrain.

Take a gander at this, I think it's what you're referring to.

I realized today that no matter what aircraft, I can stand on the brakes or abuse the crap out of them when landing and they'll never overheat or fail (explode, catch fire, melt/shred tires, etc).

I think it'd be wonderful if in the future this could be modeled. It's probably way too involved researching brake data per aircraft, but one can still dream. :cool:

For miracles please refer to BenedictXVI[at]vatican.va. :rolleyes: Ideas like that are way out of line with the basic characteristics of the engine, which is in its second decade and already prehistoric in PC terms. Just because modern hardware can deal with that it doesn't mean the engine is up to it.

Be a real nice touch, its a bit of a pain when flying in a SEOW or something similar, your gauges are in mph, but the grids are in km, especially doing blue water nav.

Just a dream i know.....
Yeah that wold be nice .. but I agree with you .. maybe not next to impossible .. but too much work for the team to have to do on every map. There would be so much that would be affected by that.

How do you know? Did you try it? Were FPS drop down drastically?

A PC game is a sum of several parts and all need to be in balance to run smoothly. As it is the engine already has issues with some of the largest maps if you put a lot of objects in them (because of memory). Fixing that is already a little delicate but what you asked would require so much memory that it would essentially require a rewrite of the engine (which, obviously, is totally out of question). Do not expect 2012 features in a PC game engine that was written more than ten years ago. That is not going to work.
