Major Fenrirs P-38 Campaign - Testing
Crash replied to Crash's topic in IL-2 Sturmovik: Great Battles Series
Thanks Fen. Is it possible to generate the mission early, so as to assign targets to pilots in the case of a ground pounding mission? -
I cant connect to the server, put in the ip but no joy. What am I doing wrong? Anywhere to put in a password/open port?

Just been watching some Viacom Pro on youtube and have bought it.

New Game Launcher, New Set Up

Dear friends, Update 4.006 will be released soon and we can show you more of the coming improvements. Today we'd like to demonstrate how the aircraft materials and textures will look in the new renderer compared to the old one. For instance let's look at La-5 series 8, He 111 H-6, P-38J-25, Albatros D.Va: We also have good news about the changes in 4.006. First, the airframe damage model for the WWI planes will be tuned according to your feedback. Second, the ships in the sim will have more advanced physical models - they will be able to run aground, receive an impulse from collisions, etc. - this is important for the Battle of Normandy where they played a major role. Third, according to Tank Crew players' feedback, we added a server option to disable tank AI gunners in multiplayer. Another option that has been requested for a while - now tech chat messages are a difficulty option so the players will be on equal terms in multiplayer. Our engineering department improved the FM and systems modeling for a number of planes, including Yak-7 and Bf-110. Tank Crew assault guns will be able to fire indirectly at a heading and distance set by the gun or platoon commander. In the graphics department, we're adding an alternative antialiasing method, FXAA, which trades some AA quality for a noticeable performance boost. It also has a side effect of somewhat improving the visibility of the contacts against the ground, especially when used in conjunction with the "Sharpen" graphics option. Several planes from already released modules will get the 4K quality external textures and the rivers and sea will get the updated water surface visualization. As usual, the full list of the changes and improvements will be available at the update launch and it is already close to 70 items total. We're hoping that the next update will be another step forward in the development of the project and you, our customers, will enjoy it. And to finish today's Dev Blog, here are a couple of Yak-9 and Yak-9T Collector Planes screenshots from our Producer: -
Ooooops, just bought an F-18 to go with the carrier

Bignewy says Hi all We are planning an open beta update for the 20th of May which will include the super carrier. Thank you for your patience __________________ BIGNEWY Community Manager Eagle Dynamics

Yes to the Tomcat, no to landing Quote from NineLine So far the F-14 has been working very well with the SC in testing, both MP and SP, that said, there might be extra issues that need solving with it into Early Access. But it is much farther along then a month ago, for sure. Mostly its things like parking issues because of its size, or other size issues not seen with the smaller Hornet.

How much are the errors affected by the number of players and the server connection quality? Might it be worth running a short campaign with fewer players and if it goes ok add more? Or even with the mission we ran last night try that on the dogz server as a coop? -
Just bought it, along with Persian Gulf and F-16. Viacom looks like it would be worth it https://www.vaicompro.com/

I will have to get this mmmmm

Thank you -
I will very probably buy the F-16, Persian Gulf and the super carrier. I managed to cold start the A-10C, take off and sort of land.

Did the mission AAR run ok? I really must not fly into the ground at a great rate of knots. My new pilot will be Joe Walsh, and when he is dead I will be James Hendrix, followed by John Mayer -

Dear friends! We would like to congratulate you on the very important holiday - 75th Anniversary of the Victory in Europe! On this day 75 years ago the hard and long road to peace, that cost millions of lives, has finally come to its end at the European theater of the world war. The people of all nations got a second chance to live. Let's remember the heroic deeds of our ancestors and be thankful to them - even though that today's crisis and problems are significant, they can't be compared to the gravity of the situation and the hardships of those years of war. The life that was given to us by the heroic deed of our ancestors continues. Coincidentally, this is a small anniversary for our project, which is entirely dedicated to the World War II events, as well - you're reading its 250th Developers Blog. Our work on the sim also continues - in 2 or 3 weeks we plan to release the next update 4.006. It will bring not only the new player controllable machines - Yak-9 and Yak-9T Collector Planes and SU-152 assault gun for Tank Crew - but also the fundamental changes in the graphics engine: the renderer will be switched to Deferred Shading. At the moment this update is already in the beta testing and our team is working on debugging and finalizing it. The changelist will be a long one once again, it already includes more than 50 changes in different areas of the sim. To illustrate what these renderer changes add to the visuals, we want to show you the in-game screenshots of Yak-9T, which is a good aircraft to display the new graphical capabilities: Another pic we want to show you the WIP model of the early war German pilot which will be used in BoM, BoS and BoK timeframes. It's going to appear in the project a bit later, but it won't be a long wait: -
Thanks for that Col

It still need some refining with my left hand but it is impressive

For Wingflyer and Zukker, F16 stuff we talked about lastnight
