Some people should really calm down. And looking at the responses I don't think of DerAlte primarily....



Back to topic:
I think it will take another few weeks. Considering the issues found with the new .dlls, the little tweaking-stuff and the current timetable I guess it will take a while to polish things up.

Hi, my first post on this new forum.

The lack of a dedicated server beta patch has me concerned: ie. we host a 90+ pilot mission as part of Forgotten Skies 3 times a week. We've pushed the server to the upper limits (we reached something like 105-110 pilots).

If I want to test the stability and weed out bugs for a patch test (assuming this is why it is beta?), then it would seem to me, you'd want to test the server components.

Granted, folks still fly coops, but most online flying today is done on dedicated servers.

I would like to suggest that a dedicated server 4.09 beta be released prior to the official release in order to properly test the client.

Having a bug free, stable release is important to me.

Thank you

Good point. This is just Beta1, though. Maybe it was primarily focused on testing the combination of the new dlls, the increased visibility-range and the new default-skins. I wouldn't wonder if there is a next beta released before the full 4.09.

Have 1C ever released a beta server patch for il2?

Yeah, you certainly got my point 100%.
