This post is a repeat of one I started elsewhere,I think I should have posted
it here first.
Just a quick enquiry as whether a sea Hurricane could be bought into the 1946 4.09 final update ,ie Early model with tailhook and possibly the
seagladiator,as there are no early war RN carrier A/C for making convoy carrier escort missions for the early war.The Norway and Murmansk maps are in the mission builder but we only need the correct A/C to build missions around this era.
There are nice skins available that model both the Sea Hurricane and one that gives the impression of the Fulmar when placed in the Hurricane
folder and there is a version for the F4F-3.The U.S.A small escort carriers would fill the role of the carriers and there are many other Battle Actions where these could be used to simulate the Historic events.Not sure if the Sea gladiator had a hook.S!

Okay, here's a thought. Perhaps rather trivial, but great for immersion

Will the position of your head as determined by a TrackIR device with 6DOF also be used in the Damage Model calculations? (preferably optional because of obvious advantages to non TrackIR users)

I was reading "The Big Show" by Pierre Clostermann and he describes that whenever he was attacking (ground) targets he would lower his head and basically creep behind the engine/armour plating . With 6DOF you can do the same. It would be nice to know it would actually help in the game

Posted this over at UBI BoB wish list threadh about views, and Fly by view to be more exact.

"A small silly thing one might think:

As i fly all settings, cockpit on and off, depending on mood, i wouldnt mind seeing a differant Fly by view (F6?)

The new one could be something like a small camera view from just behind the rear canopy framing (behind the pilot) or even infront of the pilot for that matter. When using the Fly by view u see the rear (canopy to maby) of your ac, with tail, rudder, elevator. The view beeing something like 30 degrees to either side and up and a restricted view on either side down.

Or something simillar to this without having to use a differant code for every ac in game...or something.

The benefitt of this would be more immersive view, (not a full blown view of everything behind u like now, including your own ac seen from the front), and u would still have WW view but essentially taking away half of its effectivness compared to now. A good comprimise i think.


I know, a silly thing looking at the big picture, but i think is thoose little things that will make a nice cake in the end.

To me it would look bad if pretty much anything looks femilliar from IL2.(No presure Oleg )"

My wish list :

Life on the ground, beeing able to embark / disembark from the plane and control your pilot even if it's very rudimentary (Remember Interstate 82?)

Spits with no anti gravity pods.

Me 109 with real manoeuvrability, that means able to turn over 320 km/h.

This isn't a wish list. It is a genuine whining list
