FMB improvement:

The ability to DE-SPAWN flights of aircraft in missions at some trigger point, altitude, defined area, specific timeout or waypoint, etc.

After the bombers have dropped their bombs and turned for home most of the time they are away from the action areas, but they affect FPS until they are gone completely.

I remember building missions where I ran the bombers into the side of a large hill,etc. Sadly, you had to hear all their radio comms during the process. LOL

Anyway, it sure would be nice to just have specific flights just disappear when they reach the specific postition.

A new map?
 

Hi folks.

First of all, I'd like to thanks Team Daidalos for the good job on 4.11 development. It shows IL-2 1946 is not dead at all, and will be in our PC's for a good time from now.

I'd like to know if you plan to add some new map at 4.11 patch. The Salomons Pack in 4.10 was a pleasant surprise, for sure. It would be nice to see a new map with Team Daidalos quality pattern.

Thanks in advance, and good job for all of you!!!

Cheers.

Oh,frankenplanes are...I got it...

I saw a He-59 that turned me on.
Hope to see more naval combat in IL2.Specially european naval battles.

Hello everyone,

I have a small request to make of Daidalos Team... Would it be possible to update the LOD0 of the legacy Macchi C.202 from the original IL-2 (the AI -only one) with that of the more recently added C.202 serie VII? I've been replaying a bunch of old DGen campaigns and the Italians showing up in the old low-detail C.202 is a real downer. Would doing this be a simple cut & paste job or is there a lot more to it?

Thanks for everything,

I wonder if it might be easier to replace the one with the other in the DGEN settings rather than swapping the models.

I'm curious if there are plans for some more default skins being improved on some aircraft.

Some key ones in my mind:

- Spitfire Vc 2 cannon versions have RAAF Pacific scheme at the moment. A desert scheme would be nice. A Europe scheme would be nice too!

- He111H-2 and H-6 could use an upgrade.

- SBD-3 and SBD-5 share a skin right now. It'd be nice if the SBD-3 had a Midway scheme and the SBD-5 retained it's late 1943 scheme which works well.

- Ju52s are used all over the place and easily have one of the worst looking default skin these days.

- Most or all of the A6M Zeros

- Pacific theater P-47D-10 and D-22 have very old default skins. I don't believe they are even accurate. Updates there would be great.

- B25J has a weird shade of green applied. I've never seen B-25s painted that colour. Maybe in VVS service? A typical USAAF olive drab would be a nice change.

- Seafire in Pacific markings look medicore at best. It'd be nice to have the proper British Pacific fleet scheme applied.

- Spitfire VIIIs don't have as good a default skin as the IX and Vb series do at this point. It'd be nice to see Pacific/MTO/Europe schemes setup.

Just some thoughts that have been burning a hole through my mind recently while flying online. Suggestions only of course.

Yep. I'm surprised that it hasn't officially made flyable. Right now, the modded version just uses the P-40 cockpit, which isn't quite right.

If it's made flyable, it would also be nice to see at least one fixed landing gear version. Currently there's a modded P-36H, but the gear isn't very good.

The Lancaster has been "in progress" as a potential mod for years, although there are "frankenplane" versions of the Wellington, Stirling and Halifax.

I haven't heard anything about the G3M being started as a mod project, much less an official one. Early war bomber aircraft just aren't as appealing to most modders as late-war/post-war fighter types.

The whole Hurricane family has been done as mods, with full historical loadouts. Most of them are quite good. They'd be on my short list of "mods to make official" if I ran the zoo.

A lot of planes could be asked, actually. Interesting list, if you add the Spitfire Mk.1 and a Channel map, you have the Battle of Britain !

Could add :
-Boomerang
-Wirraway
-A-26
-Curtiss Helldiver
-Vultee Vengeance
-reworked C-47
-P-47N
-P40 F/L/N
-A-36 / P-51A
-C-45
-C-46 Commando
-Lockheed Hudson
-Lockheed Ventura
-Vindicator
-Privateer
-Catalina (early models)
-Coronado
-Kingfisher
-Fairey Barracuda
-Firefly
-Fulmar
-Albacore
-and those I forget

Plus missing japanese planes, especially bombers.
I don't know the feasability of a chinese campaign.

Would need :
-Curtiss Shrike
-Hawk III
-Westland Wapiti
-Dewoitine 510
-Ki-10
-P-66
-DC-2
-He-111P (not sure of the version any more)
...at least...

So many things to do.

But so many things already done... ! :grin:

Cheers !
