4.09 - Support & Bug Reporting

[II/JG54_Zent]

Hello Martin/Jopo,

as you can see in this forum there seem to be a few more people who have start problems, interestingly under many different systems and OS versions. I have a regular Creative Audigy Soundcard install with latest drivers and no issues -nothing exotic here..

I dont know whether you are sloppy or not from your past in II/JG54. You were a great and very intelligent pilot and a good helpfull comrade, but a bit unreliable in participation and communication with us, thats all i know and i think it has nothing to do with this issue.
But i understand that you say that you made a huge effort that this patch is good and as bugfree as possible and i am sure that is true and i know your great dedication to this game. Thank you a lot for this immense work from which we all profit !!

But if a patch is issued and dlls are included which have a known issue which is not adressed, no remark of it in the readme or anything... this is at least somehow not so clever, isnt it ? Imagine someone maybe not so familiar with Il2 as us who patches his game and then at startup...blupp.-.nothing... actually i was puzzled myself and a bit upset.... i didnt and couldnt know that there is a rather simple solution to it... its clear now that those dlls come from Maddox and its their responsibility that this bug was never adressed. But Daidalos knowingly integrated them in the patch without any remark about those problems.
So change your readme and maybe integrate the old dlls as alternative in the patch and nobody can say anything about sloppyness...hey... and dont let a little provocation get under your skin dude.. you are too good for that..

yours,
Zent
