Daidalos Team's Room -QUESTIONS AND REQUESTS ONLY - For 4.11

First and foremost is the fact that anything Daidalos has added so far was made by somebody in his own spare time. Which means what the modeller made was up to him.
Now you've mentioned the jets and the Lerche. Tough luck - nothing Daidalos did. These were either created by Maddox Games or Luthier's Russian Rocket Games for the 1946 release. You got a complaint that no Meteor was created? Take it up with Maddox Games and Russian Rocket Games.

And lastly about the types Daidalos did add. Most were "leftovers" from the Il-2 and Pacific Fighters development (i.e. the CW-21 was such a case). Others were made by our team members because of their particular interests - the Slovaks had an interest in their Avia and Letov, the Finns wanted their iconic Fokker D.XXI, our italian members wanted some more of their own types and the Henschel Hs 129 was a type the community wanted for years (myself included).

So ... for any type to be created it takes hard work and dedication. Daidalos is a small team and does not have a large number of 3d modellers. There are simply too many types possible and too many theaters to cover to make everyone happy and a lot of groups with particular interests would like nothing better than to monopolize TD for themselves. Which, of course, is simply impossible. And because of that - lots of potential projects, little time and even less manpower - we gotta prioritize our efforts and concentrate on certain areas. If your particular area of interest is not in it ... sorry. We're simple humans and not magicians.

I totally understand as I know a little bit about 3d moddelling, and I think your team has done amazing work over the years. Could I ask what are the potential projects though like what are you working on or are wanting to work on.

Please accept that I will not speak about ongoing projects. That is neither my job nor would it be wise. Like I said we're all doing this in our spare time and sometimes "real life" strikes. One of our members had two very interesting projects running when, about a year ago, real life struck and he had to put his work and his membership on hold (he's still in that limbo BTW). So you see it wouldn't be a good idea to speak in detail about what is going on ATM. But a Meteor is not on the scope ...

I would like to see more flyables heavies, a bigger map for central/western europe (so we could go from North sea to Germany, even with a fake island so you dont need to draw the UK), more japaneses airplanes flyables (or at least IA), i tthink this one is a WIP but it would be great that the IA could get lost if you fly inside a cloud....
And smaller patches.... even size of just one plane.

You should read previous page. About new planes. Aslo, it's not "IA", it's "AI", and in already can lost you inside a cloud. And patches "size of just one plane" are unpractical.

One thing that really needs to be addressed is the AI.

What I am talking about specifically is the fact that STILL you can set an enemy aircraft on fire.. and he will still fly around.. and in many cases actually engage aircraft ... while smoking.. I don't know how doable this is.. but AI aircraft should do the same thing most live pilots would do when their plane catches fire... bail out. Unless wounded... and they certainly shouldn't keep flying around attacking other aircraft.. This is a real immersion killer.. especially on a coop or MDS server.. Can this be addressed?

I would like some kind of answer from someone please.

I have made posts on other issues in this thread and got no response at all.. I hope someone responds to this one..

Flyable Hampden .. and ability to lay mines.

Thanks

Do we know when 4.11 is going to be released?

P.S Excuse me if already mentioned but couldn't read all the 37 pages...

[Bionde]

Server with 128 or more players in big maps, and dynamic MDS generic missions...
