4.13 release

[Tony4mori]

Even without Italy country, incredible!
We M.C.200 and M.C.202, maps of Donbass, Stalingrad and now Tobruk. I wonder what it takes to build a IT folder with a dynamic campaign or at least of single mission.
With all due respect for other countries, but it built the IK-3, aircraft built in 12 models but we have not even the cockpit of the Fiat G.55 and Cant.Z 506 and Cant.Z 1007.

Sorry for my english.

Tony, cool down, although there's no officially released Italy folder, we can have one since 2004, and several Italian squads are supported ingame, and there's an Italian language pack, and Italy is quite well represented planewise. Frankly, much better than its traditional opponent Britain. I know because the Med is my favourite theater.

TD isn't a paid group. It's volunteer based. The reason the IK-3 is in the game is because a small group decided they wanted to build an aircraft that was meaningful to them. So they did it.

Most of the major Italian fighter types are represented as is at least one bomber. That's not bad. I'd love more too... but someone has to make them. If you're so inclined then please do. I'd love to see a G.55 cockpit

[Tony4mori]

then please do?! I bought this game and see airplanes that have been built in 700 units without cockpit, but see a plane built in 12 units functioning, i do not think a better decision.
Never mind the planes, Italy does not even have a dynamic campaign and singles missions in this game.

What you (and I) bought is Il-2 1946. The rest is gift. I too would like to have more Italian planes and maps, but having some British and French planes to shoot at is more urgent. And you'd better to ask for the Forgotten Countries mod, so that you could fly a G.55 against Messerschmitts if someone makes a cockpit.

I think you're missing the point. The aircraft that get added to the game at this point are done because of interest only. It's whatever modeller does the work to make it happen - usually this means they are very interested in whatever plane gets added. Team Daidalos facilitates that happening (and contribute a few of their own as time allows).

If you're feeling very interested, then feel free to jump through all of the 3D modelling hoops to make your favourite aircraft happen. It's not easy but I give a huge kudos to anyone who manages to do it.

Gotta truly love the gunner reload, watching the drum spin and gun go silent.Truly epic. Was testing val as level bomber and a uppity wildcat got a drum full.nailed me good while reloading.Truly epic, no more super sniper Japanese rear gunners!!

It's the small things...

Very happy to see an actual window over the bomb aimer's position when viewed from the pilot's position in the SB-2, instead of that ugly blue booger texture that used to be there.

Lots of little details made it into the patch that aren't in the notes.

I tell you, I love this sim.
