Yes, after having some QMB against ace AI I can say their targeting is amazing: I've been shot from angles I wouldn't think them possible! :)

a HUGE THANK YOU Daidalos !!
We'll be up on testing ASAP :)

This is such a huge improvement. You guys did an excellent job with the AI! Really takes immersion to the next level, giving the player a real sense of fear of the opponent. It will improve my flying tenfold now that I can practice offline and really have quite a challenge. Thank you guys for your hard work and devotion to the best sim ever! S!

Btw... I really think Ilya should hire you guys out to do the AI for CloD now! ;) What a disaster.... atm anyways. I'm sure TD could work wonders with CloD. Of course I'm not doubting MG's abilities though, as they've done quite a marvelous job on making the beginning of what is to become an even better sim than 1946.

I want to thank you espesially for the PE-8. The pits are perfect. Many thanks for your good job on this

5% crash on loading indicates

~You just upgraded Il2. During this you missed an SFS file Somewhere. Go back and repeat.

~You just installed a mod enabler. Then , also you might have missed an SFS file (could happen with some enablers) or, your copy of IL2 is a direct to drive copy bought over the internet.That means One of your SFS files and some of your dlls are spiked by UBI. The fix for this is here: http://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,1531.0.html

~Somehow your soundsetting is something other than 44.1KHz, and this is somehow screwing everything else. I personally have never been able to reproduce this crash. But know about it anyway, Access your sound settings through the IL2Setup.exe , or IL2SET.exe in your game folder. This seems to apply only to old UI installations anyway. One of those "funny little spies"

~You did nothing and now there is a 5% crash. One of your SFS files somehow got lost or corrupted. Count them and replace them if needed. Copy all SFS files over from a backup of your game


...you did make a backup right....

Great news !!! I decided to check in here to see if this was out... I see it came out yesterday..

Thanks Diadalos for all your hard work. I cant wait to get home and install this.

Thank you DT, without your effort one can't but wonder if this sim was still alive as it now is, online & offline. Incredible work there guys.

"Last but not least we would like to dedicate this patch to late Sergey 'Vert' Kubyshkin, a talented Russian modeller who passed away and did not get a chance to fly the IL-4 in the cockpit he built for all of us to enjoy. S!"

So Sorry to here this, my condolences to his family.
The Cockpit is very 3D awesome work. Sergey!

S!

Thanks a lot.
