That GOG.com sounds fine, but he want's it today. Anyone know where can get a download version of Il2 Sturmovik 1946 - non steam?

GOG(Good Old Games) only does downloads, go to this page to buy and download IL-2 1946.

Unlike steam, you don't need any additional software, it just installs and plays.

37. Auto / Analog radiator control function, for the switching of the radiator control directly between analog or auto radiator control without going through the digital preset radiator positions as currently is. Similar to Autoprop control.

Hello Daidalos Team.

First of all let me thank you for all this great job you have done to the best flight simulator of all times.

I have a question: viewing the new option that you are going to implement on the simulator to have co-pilot seat activated, are you going to put this option in the Pe-8 and the TB-7 M-40F too? Both airplanes have co-pilot on their cockpits.

Thank you very much.

its not official opinion ... just my own ..
Pe8 and TB7 wouldn't have pit for second pilot ... by two reasons ...
1. in game we didn't have pit for second pilot ... (didn't have 3D model for it)
2. Unlike TB3 or B25 or B24 or other plane with two pilot ... TB7 and Pe8 have very not ergonomically positioned of secondary pilot place, right behind seat of first pilot ... from that place extremely hard to piloting the plane

in 75-80% it will be almost blind fly.

Not sure it will be used, the co-pilot seat, but the human bombsite seat + human pilot could be














.

IF (and a really big if)
OculasRift support were to be implemented,
and some sort of animation or such for both players and/or player pilot and bot pilot, to be implemented,
which would be a lot of time and coding...

This idea is based on having less AI airplanes and more flyable aircraft. Maybe some of these can be implemented.
The way to do it is to get on an AI plane and make it flyable based on the model that is flyable.

------------------------------------------------
B-25J-1NA, 1944 (Flayable)
B-25C-25NA, 1943: move the top turret a little back of the airplane.
B-25G-1NA, 1943: same as above and delete the front gunnger position and add more guns.
B-25H-1NA, 1943: just delete the front gunner position and add more guns.
------------------------------------------------
Bf 110 G-2, 1943 (Flayable)
Bf 110 C-4, 1940: just open the cockpit of the gunner.
Bf 110 C-4/B, 1940: same as above.
------------------------------------------------
D.XXI sarja 3 EArly, 1939 and D.XXI sarja 3 Late, 1941 (Both flayable)
D.XXI Danish, 1938; D.XXI Dutch, 1938 and D.XXI sarja 4, 1941: just add the cockpit from the one of the above airplanes and make some minor modifications.
------------------------------------------------
IL-4, 1942 (Flayable)
DB-3F, 1941: just add the cockpit from the above airplane.
------------------------------------------------
G4m1-11, 1941 (Flayable)
G4M2E, 1945: just add the cockpits and perhaps more power.
------------------------------------------------
J8A, 1937 (Flayable)
Gladiator I, 1937: just add the cockpit.
Gladiator II, 1938: put a three blade propeller and perhaps more power.

Make flayable in all weather conditions the J8A, 1937 that only is shown in snow weather, same as the I-15bis (skis), 1937; I-16 Type 24, 1939; I-16 Type 5 (skis), 1935 and the I-16 Type 6 (Skis), 1937 airplanes.

A J8A, 1937 for aircraft carrier just add the arresting hook.
------------------------------------------------
He 111 H-6, 1941 (Flayable)
He 111 Z Zwiling, 1942: just add the same cockpit and 4 or 5 more seat for the second fuselage. The center fifth engine can be calculated proportionally with the other four engines.
------------------------------------------------
MC.202 Serie VII, 1942 (Flayable)
MC.202, 1942: just add the cockpit.
------------------------------------------------
Hawk 75A-4, 1940 (Flayable)
Mohawk IV, 1941: just add the same cockpit with minor changes and perhaps more power.
Sarvanto D.XXI: just add the same cockpit with minor changes and perhaps modify the power.
------------------------------------------------
Mosquito FB VI, 1943 (Flayable)
Mosquito B IV, 1941: just add the same cockpit.

A Mosquito for aircraft carrier just add the arresting hook and folding wings.
------------------------------------------------
Hawk 75A-3, 1940 (Flayable)
P-36A, 1938: just add the same cockpit and perhaps modify the power.
------------------------------------------------
Re.2000, 1940 (Flayable)
Re.2002, 1943: just add the cockpit with minor changes and modify the power.
------------------------------------------------
SB 2M-100A, 1937 (Flayable)
SB 2M-103, 1938: just add the same cockpits with minor changes and modify the power.
------------------------------------------------
Thank you, and wishing that some of these ideas can be implemented.

HFSX has implemented some of these already I believe.
Anyway, almost all aircraft are flyable with HFX7.
